Alford is still a Rider. worthy would be a good add. Clear that Mitchell is not a returner.

Should have played Castillo in the preseason

Who had Johnny Augustine in the lock of the week?

Oline not doing their part too. Too many guys in ZC’s face. No big running lanes yet either

Ya man that’s my point. Would be foolish to take off an American LB and lose that ability. Especially if there’s an injury

No I think you’re wrong here. Cole is listed as a backup but hopefully will be rotating in like a starter and taking out a Canadian. With everyone healthy Wilson and cole can be in at the same time, either with Gauthier or Kramdhi. If one of the imports gets hurt, and Ayers were off the roster, then you’re stuck playing the Canadians with no American to rotate in.

You were talking about taking off the backup LB to get a DE on. Ayers wouldn’t on the roster.

Hope it doesn’t work like that. I subscribe to TSN digital just for the CFL season.

As mentioned elsewhere on here, Cody doesn’t have Mack to bail him out this year. Unless one of their new receivers is a stud he’ll be in trouble

LFG!!

If Cole or Wilson goes down then you’d have Gauthier or Kramdi playing every down. I agree if it would be nice to have another DE on the roster but with the limitations on Americans you can only have so many American backups playing.

If that happened you’d be complaining we have no import LB depth. I’m all for complaining about roster management after last year but this is getting ridiculous. I’m glad Hubert shows enough promise to stick around on the PR but he’s an 8th round pick for godsake

I guess Lemon is allowed to play while his suspension is appealed? Apparently it’s the Als right tackle’s first game, so hopefully Willie and Haba (and anyone else playing end despite being a tackle) can give him a warm welcome

Don’t know which American would come off the roster though. The back up DB? Then we’d all complain about the lack of depth there. could use a cdn DE. Mason Bennett coming still?

Exactly. He was an American that wasn’t good at any of the positions he played.

Lawler

McGhee isn’t even on the active roster so we’ve avoided that to start the season at least

Looks like the front 4 will be great with WJ, Haba, garbutt, fox, adams, woods. Like others I’m surprised tre Thomas and petrishen didn’t stick around. no idea who will be returner. If it’s Mitchell did he even take any reps there in camp?

It was but to be fair in the playoffs he was playing with a bunch of receivers that couldn't move.

Pretty much an all rookie line up. Looking forward to seeing Smith at RB and the LBs at least.

No I want to live my dream of 4-5 1000 receivers every year!

Agree, but that is pretty much Woli's role already. I think the 5th guy should be one who could in theory step up and fill in for Schoen or Lawler if they get hurt.

Would be nice to have a guy that would be dangerous on a bubble screen and crossing patterns. Agree that we don't necessarily need the import to take on Bailey's blocking role if Clercius can come into that role sometimes

Stings for me because when he was healthy he's the best returner I've ever seen live.
