Brandon Posted July 6 Report Posted July 6 Is he playing hurt? Is he completely shot? Would O'Shea even consider benching him? Instead of cutting him do they put him on the IR? Could Walters work a miracle and fleece another team with a trade ? Are we all over reacting on his level of play?

JuranBoldenRules Posted July 6 Report Posted July 6 I'd bet my life he wouldn't weigh in less than 260 by Monday morning. He probably lost 10 pounds tonight. Noeller 1

Booch Posted July 6 Report Posted July 6 we replaced Biggie....Thomas...Kramdi and BA you would see a world of difference on our defence...but....all 4 our Osh's boy's and we know none of the will be replaced until a) they go out with longterm injury b) someone higher up lays down the law or c) Osh is punted Blue28, brett_c_b, Piggy 1 and 2 others 2 1 1 1

JohnnyAbonny Posted July 6 Report Posted July 6 I feel awful shitting on Bighill, in past years he’s been one of my all time favourite Bombers to watch. I’d put the anger towards the coach and management who kept him in this role. BA playing is worse for the team right now anyway, change it to the Useless Old Players thread. 48 minutes ago, Jpan85 said: Micheal Ayers is the MLB of the future High hopes but huge difference between being an ST ace and a starting MLB. 46 minutes ago, JuranBoldenRules said: He's the Derrick Doggett of the present.

Fatty Liver Posted July 6 Report Posted July 6 Had high hopes for Cole but he's been mostly invisible for 4 games now, seems to have talent but not very consistent at applying it. Somebody is going to step in front of him and take his job if he can't establish himself as more than a role player.

Booch Posted July 6 Report Posted July 6 Cole has been good...hard to be noticeable and impact full with plugs getting reps ahead of you Poor judgement and plain dumb hit on Brown aside..Kramdi was more god awful than usual...another game chalk full of being right lost and out of position multiple times...more disgustingly bad missed tackles...now stupidity included...he needs to.be parked as a st and injury replacement guy only...even in rotation he is pointless
Brandon Posted July 7 Author Report Posted July 7 Maybe we can sign an NFL cut later in the season to replace Bighill and company? We used to be able to recruit solid linebackers.... baaaack in the day.
Goalie Posted July 7 Report Posted July 7 (edited) Had a couple at camp. Thomas and petrishen and even Moses Last time our linebackers could tackle was pre season. Last time our dl got pressure consistently also. Edited July 7 by Goalie

Last time our dl got pressure consistently also. Thomas was a WIL. He made a ton of plays in preseason though. I thought he should/could have replaced Wilson. Some on here liked that Gemmell in the middle too. I’m not sure of any LBs on the NFL cut bubble that have been up here previously. rebusrankin 1

bearpants Posted July 10 Report Posted July 10 I always preface these type of things by saying I'm nowhere near an expert... but to my untrained eye, I was not super impressed with Petrishen... Moses seemed like a keeper... I didn't get a good glimpse of Thomas... but a lot of people around here (who's opinion's I trust) seemed to like him... Ayers has looked decent on team so far this year (has he taken any reps on D?) and he's always listed as WIL on the DC, not sure if that means anything... I feel like he's this year's Cole.... start out primarily on teams and slowly start working his way into the defense...

Thomas could have filled multiple roles..Wil...SAM....Even safety...just had a nose for the ball and had that sideline to sideline pursuit that a young Wilson...I don't recall him even really messing up Petrishen to me was meh...Moses was raw...and rusty but had all the tools, and made plays...He just needed to learn the Canadian nuances...why he wasn't kept...even for just aprt the yr on the PR to see if he could put it all together was puzzling too..I know he got hurt near end of camp...so maybe he gets brought back?...Dunno Piggy 1 1

Petrishen I don't recall one way or the other, Moses was a mix of both good and bad at various times.
Booch Posted July 10 Report Posted July 10 If this isn't enough to make yhou say....why? I don't know what is Also a nice display of Kramdi behind the play...not going hard, and tippy toeing around doing zip...ala Thomas on so many plays.....fix those 3 areas....we would be pretty damn good 1 minute ago, GCn20 said: Really liked Ayers in camp, and Thomas was good as well.
