Yes, 8th round pick from this year's draft. He's already done more than players drafted much higher than him so he was a steal for us.

A campaign of harassment against a team employee is a lot different to me than some criminal activity in terms of whether I'd even consider having that guy on the team. He's clearly toxic. It's not a mistake.

Jake, Kyrie and BA are going to keep haunting us until they are released or most likely not signed in 2030.

interesting...as thats exactly what ZC has been doing for some time now....

I would like to see Wj...Adams..Woods...Garbutt get lions share in 40 and 30 fronts....Then Use Hubert the most....out of the 3 Canadians...and would have Kept Fayad and Schmeck...and if he continues to not progress give Samson a go...No need for Thomas really...why waste reps on a guy who has no future past this season, nor any real influence on many plays...let alone the game Thats the best we can put out there in my opinion with what we have available unless we pick someone up Ideally would be nice to roll out WJ..and 1 or 2 of Woods..Fox..Adams and Lawson up the gut...depending on the front with Garbutt and Hubert being seasoned, and if roster allowed Fayed (for now) rounding out the group.... give us a real versatile DL rotation and at same time eliminate some dead weight...will that happen...nope...not with Osh Oshin'....but if we did...we'd be looking good....then correct that LB group on the fly We solid with Ford/Bonds/Nichols....Holm I still think is weak and wayyyy better suited as a true free safey back there and I like what Griffen brings and would I think do well at HB...and brings a physicality there we need

If he’s hurt we are beyond screwed.

Makes no sense to me that Myron Mitchell is still here. If nothing else, take a look at another pass rusher. Mitchell didn't even step on the field aside from kickoff return on Friday. Ontaria Wilson at least as been building a bit. If you think Mitchell is better....cut Wilson. Case, Alston. Why do we need all these guys if we aren't going to use them?

He’s been noticeably good. As long as the organization can taper expectations. Good rotational player, but let’s hope they don’t ruin him by giving him the Jake Thomas treatment.

Disappointed about releasing Fayad. He looked pretty good. Why not release Mitchell? He’s absolutely useless as a returner and as a receiver. I don’t understand. We’ve been under manned on the DL and just getting by and we bring one guy back just to release one guy, especially one who was useful for us. Again it’s looking like poor roster management from the Blue Bombers.

I was hoping once Garbutt was healthy we would have him and Fayad so we could focus Adams at DT where i think he is more effective.

That Hamilton TD a great example of using motion across formation to give QB read pre-snap on what coverage is. Dunigan in fear for 714

Disagree. Kyrie hasn't been the same since he got hurt in 2022.

Taggert and Rosewood had small roles that connected to the other movies. I watched it last night as a massive fan of the other three. It stood up to the other.

Gord Miller is a better CFL PBP than NHL.... Wish he was still on the beat.

Tell's me Garbutt must be ready to go early....or we are just making a dumb roster use move...again and going without that extra...much needed rotation piece...guess we shall see

he definately knows where to go underneath and when/where to sit down to give a QB a target. I dont think he was brought in for a deep threat for 50/50 balls....Moreso for intermediate stuff....use in the option...je=t sweep game and running crossers and intermediate seems...if for anything to take a defender with him to clear out zones...and if he does gets the ball in space...he definately will be an issue to contend with

He'll offer more than Mitchell or Wilson at this point. The Lucky Whitehead addition, to me, is kind of meh ...

Maybe he was but turned it down when TSN wouldn't match the free hot dogs he currently gets?

Granted, I despise Rod Smith and Dustin Neilson as announcers. I think Ferguson is the best PBP guy out of the 3 on TSN by a country mile. His knowledge of the game and players is top notch. His delivery is a bit drier, in a good way. It’s refreshing to have a pbp announcer who isn’t a highlight desk guy out of his element (Smith) or shrieking like an 8 year old (Nielson- the worst in my lifetime imo and that’s including Rod Black) they’re kind of doing regional announce teams now. It’s usually Nielson and Suitor for the west games and Marshall and Forde out east. They give Rod Smith the showcase game still. DT is miles better than Smith or Nielson, and more polished than Ferguson. I’m surprised he wasn’t offered a job already. It’s a shame Cuthbert wanted to do hockey so badly. I’m sure if TSN had NHL games, we’d still have CC doing the Grey cup game at a minimum. Next year DT probably replaces Smith if he wants to. In a perfect world they hire DT, retire Smith, put Nielson on sportscenter where he can yell his little catchphrase and just have 2 main announce teams. DT/Lapo, Ferguson/Forde. Use Rod Smith sparingly with Matty or Davis Sanchez if he’d do it. No more Suitor, no more Neilson.

Bombers practice at 1125am today and Lucky will be there.

First I've heard of this

Canadian Denny Fortney....and yeah...a lean 280 even...be easyto do with his body type and age....could prob increase his speed as well with more lean weight and some speed training as bizzare as it may seem...we have been giving up the second fewest points per game in the league...and thats with an injury riddled lineup...some early growing pains with ford....and some piss poor front 7 personell and usage.....we dial that in and get anything at all above average from the offence...the ship can be righted fairly easily on the fly this yr, and hopefully next yr is just some tweaks and a few free agent adds ...as opposed to wholesale overhaul from a bunch of dead wood.....gotta make some those transitions here now in the 2nd 3rd of the season to align nicely with the guys we will have back from injury

Looks like Kyle Samson might be part of the plan for the dline. He has been added to the active roster.

I remember Hubert in one of the preseason games standing out for making some good plays and then he seems to make some good plays in regular season... so my question is, how did he wind up being a late round pick? Cause there's gonna be a list as long as my arm of guys drafted before him who don't accomplish nearly as much as he has already shown...

Tui, must be hurt, he has not been able to go all year so far. He has shown so much potential, it must be a lingering injury keeping him from more than spot duty. I really like the Lucky signing, he is a very high energy guy, I think we lost a lot of that with Hardrick and Baily moving on in that department. I don't love his full skillset as a receiver, but as Booch mentioned he knows what's going on, and don't underestimate his speed, teams will have it in the back of their heads his reputation. Fayad, I get it, he looked good, but not great, we need to be better across the d-line, Willy woke up last game, Mair is about as mobile as Joe Biden, so hopefully Willy keeps up the play.

Big Stan is the least of our worries. Just so consistent ,watched him after that injury, actually played better. Hes simply the Best LT to ever play the game up here.

We had an old guy in rookie camp day 1 that can probably provide more than what we've seen from a bunch of the receivers this year...

Kyrie is underated and very good, the issue is with Bighill lacking the range, he is being spread thin We should have made a play for titus wall, as an upgrade to Kramdl who is serviceable but not elite

It's funny how subjective this stuff is. For example everyone seems to love Gord Miller in hockey broadcasts but I can't stand the way his voice makes him sound incredulous about even the most mundane plays.

And if Lucky fails Romby Bryant is only 44 and still a willing blocker.

The Ti-Cats need to fire one coach every week until they win a game, next up Mark Washington. If it gets down to Milanovich bring in an old blockhead coach from Texas with a brush cut to boot him square in the nuts in front of the team to send the message, football is not played by ***** cats. The entire organization is a mamby-pamby mess.

I actually like Rod Smith as a pbp guy. He had a great call on Jefferson's strip sack against Ottawa. Him and Forde are my favorite pair right now. Agree that Suitor needs to be done and that Lapo needs a promotion to the booth. What do people think of Marshall Ferguson as a pbp guy? He's decent to listen to and doesn't speak in endless tired cliches. I think he's pretty good.

We have running backs who can play that position better than a quarterback and we have receivers who can play that better than quarterbacks can. 2 qbs on the field is a gimmick play you run once or twice to try and catch a team napping. It's not a regular thing.

Lmao. My dad literally just said he thought the returner had a beer gut and then he almost breaks one !

Forecast for the Hamilton game...hot, humid and not windy enough to move that smell along.

Elks signed Moncrief today https://3downnation.com/2024/07/07/edmonton-elks-sign-former-all-star-sam-derrick-moncrief-dt-shawn-oakman/

Bison Head Armitage and Rod Black

If he was hurt wouldn't it be more expedient to place him on the 1 game, just to keep him in house?

It was reported that teams were inquiring about him as late as December so I wouldn't say there was no interest. No interest in the Jets asking price might be more accurate.

Bryant definitely looked to be in pain after the play where it happened. He waived off the trainers and played the rest of the game. Hopefully he’s available come game time. Feels like must-win vs Calgary and the glimmer of hope from last week has me bracing for angst and pain instead of resigned disappointment. I guess that’s an upgrade?

March 2023 is when that news leaked but there hasn't been anything else about a trade request since then. When he signed the one year deal a few months later (in August), he also said he was looking forward to a clean slate with the club so it looks like he may be ok with whatever the club told him about their future plans for him. Either that or they've done a much better job keeping things out of the media but that's almost impossible to do if a team is actively shopping a player or if a player really wants out.

I have no issues with Wilson either...still can go sideline to sideline and make plays....his 2 partners back there tho make the group pretty weak....shore up MLB and SAM then evaluate the group

Updated my spreadsheet correct standings should be at the top

Yes fixed it I need to go adjust the results I had put Philpot schoring.

That and not putting what should be pregame show fluff segments in the middle of the actual game.

Exactly this...and if Buck schemes for this and we run an offense predicated with this in mind..with the right collection of weapons it would be a very tough offense to defend..and then the majority of Strevs runs are less physical...but the physical aspect is there if and when needed.

On that Lemon news
