wbbfan Posted July 17, 2018 Report Posted July 17, 2018 9 catches on 21 passes, 95 yards no tds 5 games. I dont suspect he is highly paid but I feel we'd be better served giving some one like thompkins a look, or bringing back denmark, heck bring in backari grant and start an extra NI. Bowman is a guy you need to involve and target a lot to get any thing out of and even then we all know his struggles with his hands.
Tracker Posted July 17, 2018 Report Posted July 17, 2018 Agreed. I have seen nothing in Bowman's play this year to justify his salary or his even being on the field. The games against Toronto ought to tell us if he has any game left.

Expand I have no clue what he is making, but i assume it isnt 100k+. I just cant see that. But yeah I think this series with toronto is as much leash as he should get. The max really. The nucks have handily out shown him thus far.

Expand We used to have Canadian scrubs put up those kinds of numbers. Bowman has had past success with Nichols, and was a YAC machine.....was expecting big things in this O setup. Question is how long do we wait, for something?

He was MIA last year in edm too.
Firekid Posted July 17, 2018 Report Posted July 17, 2018 Don't bring back an aged slug in Denmark to replace Bowman. We have guys on the roster already that can play and replace Bowman and who I feel have more to offer than Denmark. I would sure love to see more of Petermann in Bowmans spot. The guy seems that he can catch and is good on YAC yards like Bowman used to be. Bonus that he is CDN. I think he could be the best CDN receiver we have on the roster but he is a rookie so he isn't getting to play.
B-F-F-C Posted July 17, 2018 Report Posted July 17, 2018 Since game 2 I've being saying that the next game is going to be Bowman's break out game. Then I thought, now that Nichols is back, the two of them will rekindle the chemistry they use to have in edmonton. I've got noting else to pin my hopes on. So now I'm at the point where I'm wondering if we should move Bowman in to the middle and see if that makes a difference. Other than that it might be time to sit him and let someone else get an opportunity. SPuDS and wbbfan 1 1
Floyd Posted July 17, 2018 Report Posted July 17, 2018 I'd actually move Bowman to Field WR and maybe alternate him and Adams between the two spots... If not, I'm fine with Adams-Dressler-Demski-Wolitarsk-Peterman wbbfan and Goalie 2

M.O.A.B. Posted July 17, 2018 Report Posted July 17, 2018 Should be : Flanders IN , Bowman OUT Nolby 1

I also think when lafrance is healthy we are better off using a DI else where. Thompkins is the first wr id give a crack. then washington (corey not the now gone ldamian.) then failing those and if finally healthy then flanders. Can you imagine the offensive threat posed by nubrady, harris and either flanders or lafrance all at once?
Blueandgold Posted July 17, 2018 Report Posted July 17, 2018 It was a bad signing to begin with, and he’s been significantly worse than I expected. I would put Flanders in for Bowman ASAP.

That’s a bad idea all around.

Expand well if a guy isnt going to play for more then a week you may as well 6 game him. Have a chance to save that money from the cap. Plus we always see every kind of silliness with the IR and info about players injuries. Hes week to week we will re evaluate him next week should be back soon x6 then done for the season etc. SpeedFlex27 1

DR. CFL Posted July 18, 2018 Report Posted July 18, 2018 Other teams scout and find legit WRs......Bombers recycle....rinse wash.....recycle....and get hung out to dry.
Eternal optimist Posted July 18, 2018 Report Posted July 18, 2018 Obviously Bowman's skills would be better used as a defensive back.

SpeedFlex27 Posted July 18, 2018 Report Posted July 18, 2018 Why do the Bombers never sign receivers & bring them in? Other teams do it & we don't. We roll with the ones we signed in the off season & that's it. I don't get it & never have. DR. CFL 1
