and poop. I could see both starting before long. Especially jeffcoat though. Dude is a force of nature off the edge.

Thanks for the list. Would love to see butcher and intzandt on the PR

Though id be looking long and hard at any MLBers cut.

Most of the major sports leagues do this. Might be a thing of some bad teams in tough financial circumstances being protected. If they are fringe for a play off spot mid way through the year and have a bunch of cap space but cant spend that it could crash a fan base. It would be nice to get to that point though where teams salaries were public info.

We are pretty tight with sms this year so that savings could be a real butt saver later. Hurl isnt likely to go, but i could see newfie getting sacrificed to sms as well. (finally)

couture and goossen are still developmental guys. They are seasoned enough to have a more active role then say spooner, but they are only scratching at the surface of their potential. Similarly foketi is an imp ol whose got lots of up side left. Hes one of the more game ready guys but not a guy whose rounded out into his peak form or close to it yet imo. Spooner Is a longer term project. Not as long as intzandt would be though. That is a lot of OL whose best football is a year or maybe more down the road.

No joke. IDR the last time our OL was this deep. If it was up to me i might keep em all going into the season let them mash for a bit and see who rises to the top. Hate the thought of letting one go and that guy becoming a stud.

great physical talent, but really raw. And we are crazy deep at developmental OL.

For my money that is the best wr core in the league. Maybe more talented groups else where, but i dont think one works as well as a unit or fits as well in their offense. And imo our system would be the primary limiting factor in that match up. If we played a traditional style of D I think we would do as well as can be expected in this era of the cfl. But i think BC is the 2nd best team in the league. Bc and calgary are the elite teams imop. Only if glenn got hurt. Other wise the shine of a new season will last a few weeks. If it goes as I would expect (thud) its gonna get real ugly real fast. Jones cant be out of the league fast enough.

Pretty much. The amount of talent we have gone through in the front 7 is crazy. If this group fails its 100% on the system. And the coaching staff / management for sticking soo long with that bend but dont break junk. (the football equivalent of a knuckle ball/eephus pitcher.)

Willy either they have given up on or is firmly entrenched at no2. Ray, they are milking any healthy and as many passes out of as possible. At this point in his career he just needs health. If he could stay healthy id take ray with no preseason games over all the qbs in the league save reilly, and BLM. Any one know if malcolm carter is going back to school? career TC / practice mvp.

One of the all time great achievements in boxing. And a pretty dang good fight too. Punchers chance and not much more then that is what mcg has. Against floyd, itd basically be like the phantom punch. The only less probable out come of that fight is floyd KOing mcg. If by destroyed you mean have a marathon ran around him get tapped by glass hands in massive pillows and be really really tired then yes.

he said he looks like an oline man. hes built more like a guard then a traditional DT.

100% passport. Plus hurl is good on teams. And NI thats good on teams can have a job as long as they have a pulse.

They had bond in at centre. And couture at guard. Im guessing they wanted to diversify guys. Moving them around so in case of injury during the season its easier to move em. Merrman was solid and did well punting and kicking off. I dont think he would be out of place punting and kicking off in the cfl this year. But another year of college and he could be some thing really special. After soo many years of thin OLs. We finally seem to have a nasty OL with tons of depth. I think our best back ups would be about as good as our starting OL of not so long ago. Ive liked lankford in pre season. He reminds me of denny. Smooth runner who brings it and makes the most of his chances. Washington has better up side, but lankford is probably the most ready, and versatile guy we have for the final wr spot.

I think the question here is not why cant we sign one. Its why cant we find / develop one. And idk. Maybe its our system. A guy who can plug up the run and do some pass rushing shouldnt be hard to find. god knows BC and other teams have managed. But then some teams struggle to find DBs while we find tons.

The offense really showed well in this game. A bunch of guys could get a nod, especially the OL. 1 Harris/flanders. The qbs killed it tonight. But before the passing game got rolling harris was the spark. And mid way through when both teams were in a lull it was flanders who was the spark. combined 9-103 1 td rushing 7-86 receiving. 2 nichols / davis. Could easily be no1. But since the backs really sparked the offense early and often. More of a 1a and 1b. 25/32 328 yards 2 tds davis also ran for a first and a td. 3 A few wrs had good nights. washington, denny, lankford did a lot from drawing penalties to returning. But gonna give it to the OL. Both starters and reserve. They really seemed to be mashing tnite. HH? taylor loffler had a huge hit knocking an eskie WR to the ground and out of bounds early. Love the big hits.

Bombers A team vs eskes team 2. i smell a butt whoopin!

Yeah i like the rule. If any thing i would like to see schools accommodate student athletes better and allow them to finish early. Dont like seeing talented players miss camp. Especially young ones. But i get it. And his degree could well earn him more money then the cfl long run. I certainly respect him for his decision making process.

Work outs i imagine dont count. maybe rookie camp too?

all great points. Id throw in the RBs. Roberson and flanders both seem like gooders. chances both are around for the regular season are pretty slim.

The first thing that goes for athletes with age is speed. If floyd cant get out and circle away quick enough he wouldnt have a chance. That said, i dont think floyd has slowed to that point yet. He could very well be slower then what we last saw. The real danger with that is he thinks he is X fast and reacts accordingly. If he is x-2 that could be a big enough window. Floyd has brittle hands as well. If he badily breaks a hand early thats an opening. Floyd is a defensive fighter though. He is an expert at using boxing gloves as well as his feet to stay clean. The fight is 100% in floyds hands. If he performs and fights the same as he did against pacman he wins a decision. mcg has about as close to a 0% chance of winning a decision as it gets. He blew his gas against diaz. He isnt versed in full 5 round fights. Forget boxing 12 rounds. Not to mention hes used to striking with small gloves now. And defending with them. I think if its a decision victory its 100% floyd. If its a KO finish its 100% mcg. But i think its a 95% chance + that floyd wins. Mcg has a punchers chance. But thats diminished by the glove size. And the very nature of floyd.
