Not sure I'm sold on a receiver even with our second first round pick...

Coates basically has as much chance to succeed as Richards - a high 2nd round pick...  look at receiver prospects all around the league - either moved on from their draft team - Bailey, Chambers... - or plateaued much lower than anticipated - Ianuzzi, Giguere...

I'd take a chance on Carter or Picton in the 3rd round...  keep building depth at OL, DT and S with the first three picks - would even be tempted to go Woodson/Wright at #6

Another tall skinny receiver from Sask.?  Uh no thanks.

Ok, I admit, I have a prejudice against drafting any receivers coming out of Sask.  Sue me.

man do I hope he can get off the sidelines this season and show why we drafted him so high.  hes definitely got the size and stature (and hands from what I recall) to be a solid receiver... if he can just get and stay healthy..

McLeod John Baltazar Bethel-Thompson accounts for two spots unto himself.

Unofficial as yet but he's expected to be in camp.

McLeod Bethel-Thompson, who arrived here last fall after bouncing around the NFL, may be back and expect a fourth QB – a prospect type – to also be added.

Whoever sews the names on the jerseys is probably drinking heavily at the prospect of trying to get that name onto a jersey.

Anybody who has any intel of who these players are ? 

[Noeller]

You can pretty much lock in MBT as one of the QBs, but after that, who knows.....

yeah at the post season presser thing walters did he seemed to think it was a lock he'd be in camp this year. Hate the guys lack of experience to age, but love the raw talent. If he is back he should be interesting to watch in camp/pre season.

McLeod Bethel-Thompson is listed as one of the participants of that spring league that just started up. So he might be busy during Bombers mini-camp.

A couple of other long time Bombers on the list are Adrian Hubbard and Justin Green.

Speaking of former Bombers, olineman John Kling has signed with Washington. He was on the Bombers practice roster for a couple weeks last October.
