That’s both really interesting and kinda sad. Considering the wear a football player faces and how much more money is made in the nfl. I’ll have to check out mlb now it’ll be interesting to see how they do it with the minors. Sounds like they really like him. He might sit on their pr a bit to keep pushing the young guys. And he might get another offer or two based on his strong reviews in Broncos camp. But he won’t become a starter in the nfl that way. But he also won’t become a starter in the nfl by backing up and rotating in the cfl. That said it’d be huge to get him back.

That’s true. And it’d be good for the league if they trimmed from the top 20% to fund it and reduce the entry limits. any one know what comparable leagues pension is like?

The ability of people to defend plop are evaporating more and more every day. The wrs we bring in don’t suck. Strevy can throw. He didn’t win with Masoli. Super proud of strevy. I’m sure he will get an nfl job this year some where if the jets cut him.

I wish I got a nothing pension of 50k a year. It also includes significant health care too. The minimum pension covers about 100% of the deductible and leaves them with around 30k a year. also have to remember that not a ton of pro athletes do well after retirement financially. Any time you get huge sums of cash or pay with out the financial skills normally attributed to earning that kind of cash the rate of bankruptcy goes sky high. It’s a great safety net for a lot of guys. for guys who come from poverty, learning to manage a 6 or 7 figure income is harder than staying in the league. id like to see the pension be much better for guys who don’t play a lot of games or earn big bucks. If you go through three training camps and pre seasons with out playing enough games to earn the pension you’ve still put your body through a whole lot.

Strevy is doing great. Pretty awesome to see a bunch of former bombers doing well down south.

Maybe recovering at home. If he’s expected to miss the season it’s pretty common. although if he’s also behind ba and Hallett in recovering he’s likely coming back to face a pr spot any way.

Should send that in a memo to Dan Marino, the entire 01 bombers roster, and every kicker to ever live. Member medlock in the nfl? I member. likely we will see the beginning of air lifts in the next two weeks. I expect edm to have 90% of a new roster worth of player changes with in a month.

Cus the first thing jones did when he joined the elk is get rid of all their nis.

Agree. Teams played him like kyrie and he did well. Teams adjusted and he hasn’t since.

On offense I’d like to see either another imp wr or maybe a rb if we keep mcg at wr. At this point if Brady is good to go it’d be good to bring in a rb for the pr. Grabbing an ni like peterrman would be nice. It’s not magic but it’s not adjustments every game. We’ve seen that same package a lot and it’s been especially weak against the run.

True but the 4th quarter bomber defense is always much tighter. Going imp at s and ni at wil while bringing Mack back onto the active roster would be nice. Clements is still worth carrying as a di. He’s good on teams. When he’s kept clean he’s good at scraping to the play and he’s very quick. But he’s not able to get off blocks. And no one is going to let clements sit back un blocked and get to the hall.

1 game. worth a conditional mid pick imo. But with the nfl cuts coming up we can probably get a good db that can play for cheap. But darbys versatility and experience here would be great. I’d love to see him at s and flip the ratio at wil

“Not even in the honorable mentions” “he’s better than wade miller” you’re cherry picking to create reasons to be angry, again.

Even if he demski and woli are 100% having no ni back up is a terrible risk. 100% we should get atleast Mack back on the roster. If We could get an imp wr back from the ir we could move mccgrae back to rb. But it would be nice to sign one when nfl cuts come out. Or we could actually try using Harrison. Such an awful roster spot waste. at this point Briggs and Gauthier rotating at wil wouldn’t be much of a down grade. After a good start weve struggled a lot more at wil.

I’m guessing they didn’t want to over work Parker when he had to draw in to full time db duty. But if you’re gonna have him do one job he should return punts and let some one else return kick offs. taylor has very modest return experience and it’s long past. He didn’t look comfortable at all.

Borsa is about all I can think too for an ni. Augustine’s been banged up this year too though. If Brady is out we don’t want to start Augustine with no ni back up. Just my opinion but I don’t think Augustine is 100% either. In general we are real thin at ni wr/rb right now. If Brady isn’t good to go and Augustine has to start we’d have 3 starting nis between the two positions with no back ups. we start 8 but still that’s very little insulation for 3 guys who’ve all been hurt this year.

I don’t think he will finish the game that’s for sure. He had more than he could handle vs us when he was healthy. On a bad leg it’s gonna be ugly for him.

Hope we get a couple guys healthy and really put the boots to the riders.

Wonder if we see more mcg at rb or if we bring in some one.

This has got to be the most injuries we’ve had to over come in the last few seasons.

Great point. They fooled the whole world. The camera the fans the coaches every guy on the field, but Gauthier. That’s an all time great teams play. Up there with hansen neutering two cats with one hit.

I didn’t like it at all especially the last one. But I get it. Taylor is not a return guy and returning punts is really hard. He was just being conservative and protecting the ball. That said he shouldn’t have been put in that position. At this point when the wr core is healthy defenses won’t be able to cheat to any one. Ellingson woli demski schoen and mcrae on passing downs is nuts.

Damn thorax gets us again! but damn we are banged up. Hope Brady isn’t serious.

Gauthier and Briggs are bother cfl level athletes and talents with huge motors but both lack positional fit. Neither are able to fight off a block or reliably tackle good rbs 1on1. They are both stuck between being a wil and a Sam. both would probably benefit a lot from more practice time and drills with the dl. but they may never be guys who fit at a position on defense. it was great to see him make a big play he contributes a lot on teams and scout unit.

I’ll take him over any other offerings the cfl has every day of the week and twice on game day.
