Stickem Posted May 31, 2017 Report Posted May 31, 2017 (edited) I feel sorry for the kid.....but all the sorry's in the world ain't getting us the quality canuck receiver we desperately need...We should look at Watt or Who or Witchamacallit...somebody who can catch AND stay healthy...There wasn't enough Vandervoort's in the draft so I guess we're going to have to suck wind at the position.....UNLESS we can swing a deal (which ain't likely) ORRRRRRR hope F-Guidino can turn into a Fantuz...

Our REC corps is just fine......if we magically came into a superstar NI Rec, that's fine, but it's absolutely not a desperate necessity, based on how we structure our roster. the watcher and IC Khari 2
bearpants Posted May 31, 2017 Report Posted May 31, 2017 guys, the answer is simple... we get Milt Stegall his Canadian citizenship... and he enters the league as a new National player... problem solved for the next few years... rebusrankin 1

mbrg Posted May 31, 2017 Report Posted May 31, 2017 At camp very briefly today. Two guys, #33 Harris and #7 Dressler, really stood out in the short time I was there. I think they have a legit shot of making the main roster. Jokes aside, those two just looked so fast and smooth today, their eliteness shone through. Best defensive play I saw came on a Justin Warden pass breakup. Medlock's hat is on sale at the Bomber store. ddanger, Noeller, rebusrankin and 2 others 5
Stickem Posted May 31, 2017 Report Posted May 31, 2017 Say Watt..............................................lot's have being saying it, I'm sure O'Shea has his cell phone number

rebusrankin Posted May 31, 2017 Report Posted May 31, 2017 Bring on Spencer Watt. Alternative number two is to petition the CFL to have Dressler declared a NI since North Dakota is essentially Canada. blue_gold_84 and wbbfan 2

wbbfan Posted May 31, 2017 Report Posted May 31, 2017 7 hours ago, Mike said: I'm at the point where I don't even get excited about new receivers anymore. Walters has done some awesome things and our scouts have brought in some great talent. We can't find receivers. TJ Thorpe is about the most optimistic I've been on a guy. But even then ... already hurt. This L'Damian fella, he sounds good on paper ... but so did Jace Davis and Ja'Mes Logan and Lavasier Tuinei and Toney Clemons and Mario Urrutia and Donavon Kemp. It never seems to work out. To be fair, jace davis looked like the best of our wrs during the worst of our offense. I think he got a bad shake.

Cant do worse then kohlert did last year catching the ball, and atleast he can knock the snot out of some defenders blocking for dressler. Like a bob probert or tiger williams for our wrs.

Taynted_Fayth Posted May 31, 2017 Report Posted May 31, 2017 We also released Ricky Collins Jr last year, but i think the consensus was he didn't have a good TC with us. Just never know

fosey58 Posted May 31, 2017 Report Posted May 31, 2017 Hey fellas. Can someone confirm for me that training camp is going to be a full session tomorrow as per the schedule on the Bombers site. I am from out of town and want to come in tomorrow to catch a day of training camp, but don't want to drive in if it's going to be a shortened day. Thanks.

Sheppard showed very, very little. I did like mayo as well. Jace had like 2 drops and went from a prime target to forgotten in the offensive transition period of time. He had more good catches then davis and mayo had combines catches last year. And less drops then a bunch of guys for us. Not to mention he blocked. I wouldnt say he had easy drops either. very few easy catches in the un settled offense we had even a while after he was gone. A lot of people see bad drops, and 100% miss a herculean effort to get to a position to make a play on a poor pass, or a pass not intended for them. Edited June 1, 2017 by wbbfan
