    Blue Bombers Cuts Discussion

    I mean … I genuinely don’t really know what people are upset about. We got what we all asked for, didn’t we? Bridges, Bonds, Ayers, Adams, Woods, Wilson and Mitchell. 7 new guys on the roster, we didn’t keep McGhee, we found a new linebacker, the roster seems set up to have a strong rotation on the DL. Ayers over Gemmel or Moses doesn’t wow me, but it’s not enough to get me upset either. I liked Ayers, I like that we get younger there and that we kept Gemmel on the PR too. Bridges and Bonds are two names I’m super happy to see kept in the secondary. We spent all camp talking about how nobody seems to have a clear idea of who should win the WR5 spot and now we’re mad about who won it? In fairness to both Pokey and Mitchell, they had to work with mostly chicken **** in the preseason so how fair is it to judge? We all wanted Adams kept and they didn’t mess that up at all. Overall, I’m happy with how this ended up.

  3. Mcghee was awful. Both games. He can not earn a spot over some of the other guys.

  6. Rosery makes no sense to me. We are short Canadians. We start a Canadian at tailback. We want to start 2 Canadian receivers. Augustine is 30. Rosery showed really well too.

  7. Rosery too. Our Canadian depth is the shits right now. If an OL gets hurt the replacement will be an American. Yet we send a guy like Rosery packing who can play special teams and back up two spots on offense.

  10. Looks like Bridges and Terrell Bonds made the team, as did Michael Ayers Myron Mitchell won the fifth receiver job, it looks like Chris Smith cut, Moses and Petrishen cut is wild

  13. Hands down better unless biggie is 100% honestly we are much better with gauthier at mac and the imp dts than any of the imp lbers and jake playing a lot of snaps.

  14. All the backers showed well imo. I think the reason Ayer’s made the cut over the rest is he looked good on teams too. I’m sure more moves are coming to set up the week 1 roster. Not excited about our kr situation. The biggest cut I don’t like is rosery. Couple others really don’t make sense either.

  15. Odd use of the PR right now....which kinda isnt a shock, but it's early That taylor depth chart...is that hgis assumption.....cause if it's actually what he was told then not as happy with how I originally saw things. Smith will be around till healthy, thinking Moses too for part of the yr to see how he comes along, but happy with Gemmel and Ayers...if you look way back to posts before TCI diud say I liked At=yers and he could be the darkhorse to be rostered. Thik we kept the right recievers, tho the pecking order/PR spots may change...I see what they might like in Mitchell...the twitchyshit he has and his playing well above his weight class, but still think Johnson is the most roster ready guy...he's the most polished and has that look of a typical CFL reciever Like the DL deph and guys....and leads me to think that we go primarily import up front with I hope Schmeckleas the rotational Canadian...Thomas serves no purpose or upside/future so end that sad experiment now....Also Mason BenneTTI am 100 percent will be here in the mix and basically was a numbers/cash/ratio thing there....and if he lands here then we are set up well with who we kept. I'm guessing sine we parted ways with Petrishen , and Moses is hurt (curious if he lingers around here) that means....and what I thought all along and camp ws basiclly just a waste of time here but Gauthier is pencilled in as Biggies replaement, and I fine with that if Ford is at corner, as we start 8 canadians then and only declare 1 on defence and he can be rotated out freely for one of Gemmel or Ayers. And if that keeps Thoimas off the field I am all for that, and startiung anymore than 8 Canadians is pointless....Cole needs to be on the field 80 percent of the snaps, and not habving him out there at SAMis a diservice to the defence in general. BA also I 100 percent will be starting day 1 from some discussions I have had, and again I am 100 percent good with that...especially if he has tossed away the brace...if he hasn't time for transition during the season McGhee on PR is the right decision....shockingly....and the guys they kept I think will be possibly an ongoing audition till we get it right, but with Nichols..Holm..Ford....we solid, so we can groom a guy on the fly I'm very interested tho with the DI's how they work it, and if the 5th reciever is gonna pull return duties and we use that extra DI on defense.....which would give us a heck of a depth on that side of the ball...we have the ability to do it, and have 2019 style 7 man front just eating teams up...And I think thats what Younger wants....balls in Osheas court to do it

  16. They will only need 1 Canadian on the field at a given time on D. I wouldn't read too much into where guys are on "depth" chart. They'll probably have snaps with 1 Canadian out there and snaps with 3 or 4 depending on set for D. They can run sets with only Ford out there for instance and American LB/DL group.

  17. I might have kept both of them over 3 import OL on the PR....but I guess they are covering 3 OL spots there....one interior guy (Vanterpool played a ton of guard in both games), one guy to develop as LT (Coleman) and one guy to continue competing at RT (Randolph). Not sure we needed to keep two import receivers either. More pressing roster need will be if we get a Canadian or two dinged on O. Hamilton ratio changed a lot with DL departures too. I'd much rather have him than the other Bennett sneak back onto the roster.

  18. There are quite possibly extenuating circumstances behind his Hamilton release. He took less money to stay in Hamilton because he wanted an opportunity to start, but he still got paid “starter” calibre money. Not Lawson dollars, but close to it. With that kind of price tag and a whole mess of Canadian defensive linemen, it looks like they decided to cut bait on the price tag just as much as anything.

  26. For years though Bombers haven't played with guys in static positions, basically as long as Hall has been here. Basically the corners and HB's are locked in and everyone else is playing multiple spots. Wouldn't get too hung up on depth charts. I think we'll see Cole at all levels of the D in the same game. Guy like Bridges could be very similar between DB/S/LB spots.

  27. Why make 2 moves tho to cover 1 spot...Leave Wilson as is...Cole at Sam and plug Gauthier in Biggies spot for certain down and distance plays and freely rotate in one of Gemmel or Ayers for valuable reps and experience and see what they have and if they are heir apparent

  28. I'm really hoping that Jordan Younger, given the extra responsibilities, will have a lot more say in how the defense is set up and that he will be pushing this group to reach its full potential. I mean, it's his job. O'Shea has been pretty clear in the past that he gives his assistants a lot of leash. So now it's time for a Younger guy to put his stamp on this team.

  40. Glad, relieved even that Adams made the AR. Gemmel the only surviving LB and he just made the practice roster. All the great linebacker prospects Petrishen, Moses and Tre Thomas cut. What a god damned shame. Upshaw and Chris Smith too. Sigh.

  41. They kept Ontaria Wilson too I guess so maybe Mitchell is the returner and Wilson is the receiver?

  42. I like Adams making the team along with Fox and Woods because it leans towards us starting 2 american DTs. No clue what Mitchell did to win that fifth wr spot. Don't like Moses, Petrishen being cut. Who the bleep is our returner?

  47. Ten bucks he's penciled in as the starter...cause he was here last yr..and that's how Osh likes to roll But I agree...he showed nothing...don't see it...I also don't like the fact Tait keeps yammering on about starters not dressed/projected this yr and keeps saying Thomas...was he told that..gets that vibe from talking with Osh? None the less...it's a less than comforting comment constantly... We saw what I guy like Adam's and what he did without being in game shape yet..and terrorized the stamps...can just imagine a fat..and out of game shape Thomas in the middle..doing nothing...jogging and trotting up to the end of the play after its over...no explosion...athleticism...pursuit...hungry aggression...just a sickening foreshadowing but I bet we see it Thursday
