wookie Posted September 28, 2016 Report Posted September 28, 2016 did he play any preseason games this year with the colts
Jpan85 Posted September 28, 2016 Author Report Posted September 28, 2016 I feel like that scouting reports for the majority of guys in the CFL look very similar to his Noeller, Blue-urns, Goalie and 1 other 4
Blueandgold Posted September 28, 2016 Report Posted September 28, 2016 (edited) Unless this receiver is better than his scouting report or Walters and O'Shea prefer the Corners on our PR to Johnny Adams; I believe we would've been better off just keeping Adams throughout the year.

Mike Posted September 28, 2016 Report Posted September 28, 2016 I won't bother with the negatives, as every scouting report for guys that become options up here are full of negatives that would make you wonder "what the **** would this guy possibly bring to a team" but what I like off the positives is he's a converted basketball player with a solid post-up game on jump balls, and he's either i) able to get good separation, as he averaged like 20 yards a grab in college or ii) a load to bring down in the open field We need that.

rebusrankin Posted September 28, 2016 Report Posted September 28, 2016 Adams is a potential FA. We got a something for a guy who's going to give Hamilton like 4-5 games. Goalie 1

Super Duper Negatron Posted September 28, 2016 Report Posted September 28, 2016 Wait, did Bender actually say we should get a starting goalie for Trouba? Can we filter him out of the Twitter feed?
pigseye Posted September 28, 2016 Report Posted September 28, 2016 The only surprise is it took this long after the Heath deal to move a DB for a receiver. I like that we are looking to add some size to the corps. Tracker 1

Tracker Posted September 28, 2016 Report Posted September 28, 2016 Harsh, but it makes the point to Bomber players about massive brain cramps. I suspect we will hear about the neg-list player as soon as he agrees to report. Likely a receiver but it might even be a quarterback.
pigseye Posted September 28, 2016 Report Posted September 28, 2016 Just now, Noeller said: Except that this doesn't really affect Heath, an HB, as we're dealing out a CB.... And Randle played SAM, these guys are all interchangeable but that's not what I meant anyways. I expected one of the veterans to be moved after they acquired Heath, Could have been Randle or Johnson for that matter, someone had to go.

Old Bomber Fan Posted September 28, 2016 Report Posted September 28, 2016 Adams hasn't played well since his return to the starting roster. I mentioned this in another thread but to repeat when he wasn't playing and Randle was hurt along with Harris the rookies really shone. When Randle came back he had a tough time initially but seems to have righted the ship. Harris isn't playing thank goodness as Loffler is far superior. And well for Adams he simply isn't as good a Fredrick and has demonstrated this since his return. I think he sealed the deal last game. And frankly wait and see if we don't move Richardson???? (no 25). He was picked on and cost us a lot during that last game. Time will tell

Bottom line is that you gotta see how he does up here before judging him. Anyone have a comparison of this guys scouting report to Darvin Adams who a lot of people around here are pining for? I have a suspicion that Adams has a bunch of negatives on his too.
ALuCsRED Posted September 28, 2016 Report Posted September 28, 2016 I'm guessing the Bombers are getting caught with the salary cap and all of the IR guys returning from injury. Johnny Adams was probably being considered to be sent to the practice roster, and if the Bombers did so, the Bombers were expecting him to bolt to another team. This way, they got something in return. Good luck Johnny.

MOBomberFan Posted September 28, 2016 Report Posted September 28, 2016 I always like to bring up Tom Brady's scouting reports when discussions like this come up. Check it out if you've never read them. Not a glowing endorsement by any means.
iso_55 Posted September 28, 2016 Report Posted September 28, 2016 After turtling last weekend, not surprised Adams was dealt. If a player doesn't like contact then it's time to get another job doing something else.
Fatty Liver Posted September 28, 2016 Report Posted September 28, 2016 Somehow not surprised it was the Ti-Cats, they've been picking up Bomber DB's for years, Brandon Stewart, Sears, Washington and now Adams. MOBomberFan 1
pigseye Posted September 28, 2016 Report Posted September 28, 2016 And we got Marcel and that skinny receiver (name escapes me).
Goalie Posted September 28, 2016 Report Posted September 28, 2016 Aaron Kelly. But regardless adams wasn't gonna be signing here come February. Plus Frederick is just to good to keep off the field. They also have a dB possible cb on the practice roster that seems to have been making some plays in practice. I like this trade. You get maybe something for a guy who probably didn't have a future here

Can't believe we got anything for him, really. (we're talking imports here) I realize it's an occupational hazard for a GM but I just hope Adams doesn't come back to haunt us, like, in the Grey Cup or something.
