Blueandgold Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 Why wouldn't we dress another import receiver for this game? I just read Penton's blog & he said we're only dressing 5 receivers. That doesn't seem like a very good idea to me. Put Lucas in instead of Frazier and have Wallace Miles replace Watson. Defense takes priority over the Offense at this stage of the game. Rory Kohlert is decent enough to start anyways.
sweep the leg Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 Defense takes priority over the Offense at this stage of the game. Rory Kohlert is decent enough to start anyways. Let him start. We should still have a backup. Besides, is Frazier really that much better than Lucas that it's worth leaving a position w/o a backup?
Valderan_CA Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 Let him start. We should still have a backup. Besides, is Frazier really that much better than Lucas that it's worth leaving a position w/o a backup? Woodson is probably going to be our backup at receiver
James Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 I would find it incredibly dumb to only dress five Recievers! I also agree Burke needs to learn to filter his comments, although its not something I'd fire him over.
voodoochylde Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 I don't have an issue with Burke's comments or that he expressed his opinion about the incident openly. West's play in practice was stupid. Period. You have to execute with discipline and awareness .. what you do in practice translate directly over to game day. This incident shows a complete lack of both of those qualities. The loss of Watson hurts .. but it hurts us no more than any other year Watson has gone down to injury. We all like to talk about the depth we have, the talented players who just need a chance to show their stuff .. well .. this is it.
Valderan_CA Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 Add Carter to the starting lineup - He's signed a contract and is playing on Friday
Mr. Perfect Posted July 18, 2013 Author Report Posted July 18, 2013 Watson will be out a month. After tomorrow, who's driving West to the airport?
sweep the leg Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 Watson will be out a month. After tomorrow, who's driving West to the airport? Burke apologized to West and said he shouldn't have made him the villian. He said Watson shouldn't have stiff armed him either.
rebusrankin Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 West should be cut, you don't hurt a teammate.
kelownabomberfan Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 so who do we bring in for NI depth? Brescacin? Brock Ralph?
TrueBlue Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 West should be cut, you don't hurt a teammate. It's not like it was intentional for crying out loud. Players practice with intensity, and it was just a fluke accident. Had Watson walked off unscathed, this wouldn't even be a story.
TrueBlue Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 so who do we bring in for NI depth? Brescacin? Brock Ralph? What is Adam Eckert up to these days?
kelownabomberfan Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 What is Adam Eckert up to these days? Not sure. Aaron Hargreaves? We could use a guy to run ten yards and just stand there on every play.
Super Duper Negatron Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 I was going to say Matt Dubuc before I remembered he was actually an import. Repeat that in your heads: "Matt Dubuc was a starting import". Remember, things could always be worse.
Fraser Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 I'd hope the next step is trying Pencer or Swiston at Tackle
kelownabomberfan Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 at this point I'd be trying them at receiver
Chaosmonkey Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 Never fear, Jay Detain will save the day! voodoochylde and Mike 2
kelownabomberfan Posted July 18, 2013 Report Posted July 18, 2013 P/R NI receivers I see on other teams we could try and grab after the game on Friday: Sask: 71 Thompson, Mitch WR Non-Import 5.09 185 1992-12-01 Regina Thunder 83 Anthony, Alex WR Non-Import 6.02 205 1991-04-09 Wilfrid Laurier Calgary: 83 Morin-Plante, Yannick WR Non-Import 6.00 195 1989-09-25 Laval Hamilton: 75 Diston, Jay WR Non-Import 6.03 185 1990-05-10 Burlington Braves Toronto: 84 Millington, Ezra WR Non-Import 6.00 195 1988-05-30 Ottawa Montreal: 88 Pierre, Youssy WR Non-Import 6.00 185 1985-08-08 Montreal Then there were all the NI cuts/free agents out there looking for work, like I had mentioned Brescacin before. Not sure how many would be interested knowing that they'd be gone again in a few weeks when Watson and Poblah came back.
