wbbfan Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 (edited) Its obviously early before the next game, but Its some thing ive been thinking about for next year. I have this based on nothing factual fear of chung bolting in the off season. If chung cant go against ott, or if we have to move forward next year do we try and build around 4 imp ol? Doesnt seem like we have a lot of options for NI ol this year. neufeld and keeping have been out soo long its hard to see either coming back this year to do more then back up.

Fan Boy Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Do you have evidence that Chung is planning on running away or is this just general paranoia? Not that general paranoia is all bad. It has kept me safe in a couple of situations. ddanger, IC Khari and SPuDS 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taynted_Fayth Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 If Chungh cant play vs OTT I'd like to see Couture get some reps. In the event Chungh leaves I'm guessing that will be the succession plan at this point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldnt mind seeing couture get more steady reps too, but I dont think we have an NI to back up in either situation. If we go 4 imp we still have him as a back up ol.

Taynted_Fayth Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 I swear I saw Shologan and Jake Thomas playing Oline last game, Thomas isn't a new thing as I believe he played briefly on the line earlier in the year when we had a couple injuries during 1 game, I could see Thomas being asked to fill that role again (as backup) if needed so we dont mess with our ratio elsewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noeller Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Thomas subs in on Jumbo sets, I believe, as a TE....sometimes rolling out as a passing option... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes our emergency situation OL I think hes drawn in to play guard twice this year. If we dress him as our back up OL, then he's either going both ways since he rotated in on the DL or we'd need to dress another NI DT.

Blueandgold Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Neufeld has to start if Chung is out. Couture just isn't ready yet. ddanger, Bigblue204 and sweep the leg 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floyd Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Couture held his own for the most part... give him some reps. Ottawa's line is not as good as BC's... I really think Chungh re-signs but if not, there will be good NI OL available... I think Holmes might be FA Or trade one of our 1st round picks for a proven OL - Philip Blake maybe?

bearpants Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 This is a good conversation to have... I am actually more concerned about this year than next... I think next year we probably lose Keeping and Neufeld... but potentially add another first round O-lineman and maybe a FA...plus Couture and McKay (no idea what his potential is) will have another year of experience under their belts.. As for this year... if Chungh can't go in 11 days... I assume Couture gets his first start and hopefully one of Keeping or Neufeld is healthy enough to be the sixth man... wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 (edited) I love the idea of trading our first round pick (not Toronto's) next year for an OL if we can get one. But the trade deadline has passed, so that's more of an off-season thing. I also wouldn't mind dressing Keeping/Neufeld and starting Couture. If he's really getting beat, we can put in the veteran. If he does ok, it's great experience for next year. Edited October 18, 2016 by Atomic wbbfan, Floyd and GCJenks 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floyd Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Don't forget about Inztandt, sounds like McMaster is pretty dominant. I think Walters gets it done - Chungh comes back for big money, sign Coombs in FA. Smith traded for Daryl Waud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Big money for Chungh has to be Plan A, for sure. wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the concept - assuming Couture looked better on Friday than he did back in week 2 - we're not trying to get Nichols killed after all. As for trading the pick, not in love with that idea, but it would depend on the player and the contract coming back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bombers managed I think three TDs and two FGs after Chungh was injured so he can't be that bad. Tracker, Mark F and IC Khari 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noeller Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Can we just make it clear: Nobody knows yet. Team has not said anything about Cheung.
