TrueBlue4ever Posted May 14, 2023 Report Posted May 14, 2023 Anyone else wondering if the Bombers would ever consider running a six-pack receiving set any time this year? And who among Wolitarsky, Bailey, Agudosi, BOLO. Grant, or even McCrae, Augustine, or Oliviera would still not get in the last 3 spots in the top 6 formation? Tracker 1

One thing I noted is that our veteran kickers are noticeably smaller than the new guys. I was hoping to get to see them in action I noticed the size of the rookie kickers as well. They're all pretty built. They didn't do any kicking at the end or after practice. They would have done it beforehand. Funny that the new kickers have to wear blues jerseys due to the number of bodies in camp.(they are doubling up jersey numbers for a lot of the players) Wilson was at practice but there was no sign of Hansen. My early money on American Rb is Jordan Salima. He has nice size and seems to have good speed. Edited May 14, 2023 by WinnipegGordo Noeller, Tracker and BBlink 2 1
rebusrankin Posted May 14, 2023 Report Posted May 14, 2023 DT tweeted that Parker and Lawrence are manning one side with the 1s on D. Houston with the twos. Interesting. He also tweeted Kolo, not Eli as the C with the 1s. Clements in Wilson's spot. Gauthier in Biggie's spot. Noeller 1
Geebrr Posted May 14, 2023 Report Posted May 14, 2023 Clements needs to not be our WIL week 1 Need a young guy to jump up Eli hasn’t played in 2 years - he shouldn’t start day 1 over a guy who played well last year. wbbfan and Noeller 1 1

Adding yet another punter is an odd one. Could just be what is required to keep a couple more bodies in camp right now. I believe they can take guys off the 6 game as many times as they want.

Colin Unger Posted May 14, 2023 Report Posted May 14, 2023 Wonder if Sergio will be staying this time? Only signed a one year deal.
Geebrr Posted May 14, 2023 Report Posted May 14, 2023 Sounds like the plan is to bring Hallett back in the future and they knew he wasn’t passing his physical 5 months ago. Noeller, Blue-urns, wbbfan and 1 other 3 1

There's no reason to sign for longer unless you're a guy who can command a 3 year deal with guaranteed money - which will never go to a kicker. blue_gold_84 and Noeller 2
Geebrr Posted May 14, 2023 Report Posted May 14, 2023 Earn your stripes Winnipeg has made a subtle change to their helmets this season as they have permanently moved to the triple-stripe look introduced as part of their alternative uniforms in 2022. The club previously had a single blue stripe on their helmets but will now have three: a white centre stripe flanked by blue stripes on either side. blue_gold_84 1

Love this look 2 hours ago, BBlink said: Just got back from practice. Got there a little late, left a little early. Thought I'd write up some notes with the obvious disclaimer that I have no idea what I'm talking about. But people are hungry for Bomber stuff. So here goes. Evan Holm and Dalton Schoen are working their butts off out there. Nice to see. Holm both looks extremely athletic and technically sound. He made a play on the ball most times he lined up Brian Cole and DeJuan Cooper stand out as guys who have a physical presence but also move really well Brian Cole had an interception in skeleton Demski made Darby look like a pylon on one play in the one-on-ones Schoen works hard every play and catches the ball every play. Lawler makes things look easy. Early on it looked like Collaros was trying to work on his timing with Lawler. Nichols jumped a route and nearly picked off the pass but dropped it and I *think* Lawler ended up with it as he was lying on the ground Winston Rose matched up against Lawler a couple times. I think one time Lawler fell down and Rose got the pick. Another time Lawler backed Rose off about 10 yards and was wide open. One guy that really stands out because of his diminutive stature is #22 Dominick Fiscelli. Caught a bunch of balls in skelly in the middle of the field. 5'9" but is obviously pretty quick. Jake Kelly (canadian DB) ran pretty good with Schoen one time Kickers might have done something near the end of practice after we left...but up until that point they were just lounging around..or helping out with setting up drills for other positions. One thing I noted is that our veteran kickers are noticeably smaller than the new guys. I was hoping to get to see them in action Thanks for this. Gold. BBlink 1

There's no benefit to running 6 receivers unless you have a QB who you want running, and who is a running threat. Otherwise you just let the DL/blitzers tee off. Noeller and wbbfan 2

We’ve ran it occasionally with buck running the show. It’s really hard to pull off the pass pro to make it work for more than a screen.

Eli it’s all about the shape he’s in. If he’s close to 100% he’s drastically better. Kolo at c is worse than clements at wil. 2 hours ago, rebusrankin said: DT tweeted that Parker and Lawrence are manning one side with the 1s on D. Houston with the twos. Interesting.

Actually I kind of wonder if we will run a lot of bigger protections. Especially when you have Lawler and Schoen who are likely to get open. Compliment them with Demski and have Woli and Bailey blocking or bring in an extra lineman wbbfan, JCon and Mark H. 3
Goalie Posted May 14, 2023 Report Posted May 14, 2023 (edited) I don't think Agudosi makes the club I don't see how honestly Lawler schoen Bailey demski woli Back up cdn.

Goalie Posted May 14, 2023 Report Posted May 14, 2023 (edited) I'd keep Oliveira in cuz he is a passing threat anyways cuz 6 real receivers likely gets Zach killed Your 2 options tho will be a back up cdn wr or rb or American kr type tho so not sure I really see the point.

I think with our team it’s more surprise who’s hurt and won’t be ready for game 1. My pick is biggie or an ol. Noeller 1
