Does Harris still have a bad back from lugging that Grey Cup and hardware around for 2ish years?

Still first practice of the week so splitting time with harris isnt too surprising. I hope hes healthy soon. Demski too. His motion / fake / sweeps opens a whole lot for our run game.

That report is brutal. Doesn't look like he doesn't like tackling. Looks like a big db with field speed rather than track speed. Should be interesting. The fact he was once highly touted and our front office wants him tells me he's probably a baller. 

Interesting that we got an imp ol when we have Richmond on the pr and traded Poole. We usually keep 1 imp development on the pr. 

 He packed on 30 lbs since finishing college. Ran out side zone running scheme in college while playing at left tackle. Looks like a high upside projectable imp tackle.

I believe we released OL Tyler Johnson from the CFL practice roster. So either him or Richmond might go to the CFL PR.

He was. But we have Richmond on the pr and 15 total on the pr. So either couple guys getting cut or some bodies getting moved around to the ir. 

I can't see it being an ni getting the boot either.

5-man CFL PR - we have 4 currently, so 1 must go there. 
13-man PR - we have 11 currently, so we have room for 2.

Hmm must be listed all together on the roster page 

[Noeller]

Disappointed... Really thought he'd be good this week. His season is quickly going down the drain. 

 

[rebusrankin]

Hopefully we can have Harris back for the playoff run.

Curious to see the D tomorrow on the roster. Lots of guys banged up which is scary.

Saw a tweet from Bauming saying that Darby has been in and Mike Jones back a corner. That would be welcome news as Josh Miller hasn't exactly excelled there.

Thatd be great. Miller has struggled some thing bad with tackling.

I assume Jefferson+Jeffcoat+Thomas+Bailey+Alexander being limited means they play (Well HOPE).

DNP for Crapgina does that mean its the Legs Show?

[Noeller]

Interesting that Crappy has a hammy issue. Curious if that's what was behind those missed kicks last week...
