Again, crazy to me how the depth has been allowed to get to where it is.

I don't really know what their plan is at this point if a Canadian goes down in practice.  The only guy not on the roster is Murphy.  The guys on 1 game are OL and DT.  Razor thin.  They basically haven't replaced Miller and Burtenshaw.

Screwed If we suffer any more loses at a lot of positions. don’t even want to think what happens if walker goes down tomorrow. 
Half a games worth of plays for schmekel? Eww

Just inexplicable roster management.

Houston out… but it’s non-injury related? Hope all is well with him.

You may recall that at the time he came to Winnipeg, his daughter was hit in the leg by a random shooting in his hometown and this may relate to that.

Hopefully she's healed and this is just something else.

This is a bit confusing… A 44 man roster?

Expand  

My guess is that if Brady can't play, they'll put McCrae on, leave Brady on and have a 45-man roster. Saves them a bit on the salary cap, though it would have them essentially playing with a 44-man roster.

What we were wondering about is if Brady can play are they allowed to add Fox back in and say "that's part of our game-time decision"?

Not having that extra Dline man would be a fools game

Which is what makes me wonder if they can add Miles Fox at game time. He was able to bump out to end a couple of times vs Sask...valuable snaps to rest for Jefferson/Haba.

Is there a non-salary related reason why they wouldn’t dress Murphy even as an extra body to play a couple special teams?  Maybe planning to send him back to school?

same, and yeah seen that too...He is a bit better bumped out than Walker, and actually I think gives more push up middle as well,

Perhaps in a mafia sense, then yes.
