Bombers Training Camp 2017 - May 28
Taynted_Fayth replied to Mr Dee's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
for a guy trying to get to the QB through the middle, he appears to be dominant AF. Definitely going to be eating up a lot of double teams this year which should open up things for Westerman and Okp. Throw in some extra wrinkles like LB/DB blitzes and QBs are gonna be running for their lives all year. Can't wait to watch them rack up the sacks -
been on a bit of a stone sour tare the last bit as they cover sooo many songs. One cover I like by them is Alice in Chains 'We Die Young' but I'll post the AIC version just cuz no one does AIC better than Layne Staley

well that kind of answered that http://leaderpost.com/sports/football/cfl/saskatchewan-roughriders/mcnuggets-labatte-battling-through-ankle-injuries?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+leaderpost%2FINTH+(Regina+Leader-Post) Guess we will see how that ankle holds up. Guy carrying that much weight on it might be a harder thing to come back from with any kind of speed -
I still remember that Banjo Bowl we got destroyed 55-10 in 2009... Bob sounded more angry and disgusted with what he was watching then I was. In a weird way it was actually comforting to hear that dejection in his voice cuz he wasn't trying to polish a turd and tell me it was a cupcake

I'm going to disagree on that one, our secondary didn't need any real fine tuning so the same ball hawks are there, as well as Leggett at SAM. The addition of Nevis and Okpalaugo are going to be night and day better then the line we had last year. On top of what I observed on Nevis, I watched some of the contests between Okpalaugo vs Bryant, and you can tell Okp plays with an edge and will be a terror for opposing players blind side. Only real concern I have right now on D is MLB

I got my buddy to ask Walters the other day if he'd have any interest in woods, and he said he was too expensive. That said, apparently the Argos have tabled him an offer, which to my knowledge has not been agreed to after a few days now, so I'm really hoping there's a change in heart by the bombers, before it's too late. I would seriously cut someone who has no chance of making the club, bring in Woods and worry about the sms later in the season before the clubs bottom line gets locked in -
Calgary will still be a good team, but I think they hit their ceiling and will come back down to earth. They can't keep losing their star Oline to FA and retirement and expect it to be stellar year after year. I think a catch phrase for Mitchell this season will be Bo knows Turf. I also think they are suspect in depth. They have been a team in recent memory that has stayed relatively healthy compared, it would take more of that for them not to be exposed. I think BC will finish 1st. their offense is redonkulous. The bombers and Stamps fight for 2, the riders and esk fight for a cross over. In the east I think Ottawa still has enough talent to finish 2nd, I see the argos actually taking 1st with better coaching and some decent offseason acquisitions. Hamilton took a **** kicking this year both in FA and the draft. The Als might be fighting off the cross over IF DD stays healthy. But so many changes this offseason, would take a small miracle to gel before it might be too late

i did read the reports on RF that why i question whether he returned to the field. From the sounds of it he might have missed some time or practice yesterday so today he was returning to the line up along with Love and Eguavoen for day 5, but got hurt later on. Other then the update he got hurt, and Jones saying he thinks he will be fine cuz hes a tough guy, I didn't see anyone say he returned to finish practice today. If anything Dreegking said it looked bad and Labatte was making sounds of serious discomfort. Guess day 6 will tell tale whether or not he's participating -

was he? if it was a little stinger why would Jones have to do an update, i'm sure the media people would have said right away Labatte goes to side line in pain but returns to the field. They wouldn't need to ask him about it. And jones thinks he will be ok. Let's hear what a doctor/trainer has to say instead -
not sure where to put this, so ill put it here (feel free to move it mods to a more suitable location) but look what the bomber store has this year... while my own beard can totally rival this face muff, this beaut should be a hot seller! i might buy one for my kid lol

me neither but we have options. Harris could certainly hold the fort playing that position as well, not to mention the duel running threat at any given time -

depending the circumstances, if the team didn't feel confident in Coates, we could always play Harris at receiver, Flanders at RB and probably plug a NI somewhere on D, like Hurl at MLB or Jones at DB. Thats what i would do if we needed to juggle -
No return of the greendrop this offseason? seasons lost. time to take an interest in the MLS

I'm going to chalk this one up to karma due to all those rider fans laughing that Durant and Richards got hurt already -

I should also give honorable mention to #84 Ryan Lankford, he made a couple nice smooth grabs and looks like he's got the moves after the catch to rack up some nice YAC yardage. -

oh yeah #33 Harris made a nice 30 yard grab in traffic along the sideline. He actually looked pretty decent out there as a receiver in those drills. Could be a calling for him if his days as a RB are even nearing an end or we have just too good a RB that we need to play over him -

just caught the last hour of TC today here's my take on what I saw; #92 Drake Nevis will be a beast for us in the middle this year. During the Oline vs Dline session the guy has a crazy good motor and is able to beat Olinemen with what appears to be ease. #96 Rupert butcher is one massive dude. Probably could one day do what Thomas does in being a emergency Oline sub with that kind of size. He makes the rest of Dline look kind small tbh #13 Dan Lefevour tossed up a 50+ yard pass almost right on the money, from all the reports on Apodacas arm I thought it was him at first (didn't have one of those roster sheets with me) #6 Davis has a nice touch on the short passes. I was kind of joking to myself we should be rotating QBs with their different skill sets as the play dictates, as they all seem to bring something to the table, but obviously that would be to obvious for D's. #65 Dominick Jackson looked good at LT rotating with Bryant in the OL vs DL -

yeah it must have been at a mini camp prior to TC. in anycase i remember he was tried out and didn't impress, at least enough to get an invite -

Taynted_Fayth replied to Mr Dee's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
looking it up he was released on may 3rd 2016 so it must have been at mini camp, but he was signed to us for about 5 months -

We also released Ricky Collins Jr last year, but i think the consensus was he didn't have a good TC with us. Just never know -
yeah pitching is still a concern. I'm not so worried about Estrada and Strowman in games 1 and 4 vs the yankees coming up but Liriano and Biagini in games 2 and 3 could see us get lit up pretty bad. hoping to come away at least 2-2

not cut but maybe they wanted to restructure the contract he was signed to before Trestman/Popp arrived to fit in woods, and retirement suddenly occurs. Could be a variety of reasons, but taking a pay cut is sometimes a reason for it **sorry maybe i should have clarified a little more in that make room i meant both roster and sms
