Final Cutdown Day

[Mr Dee]

I thought that the mandate of theBombers expanded scouting dept. was to find new players not recycle guys like Saunders who's best days are days gone by.

Pay attention.

They did find a guy. Carlos Anderson. He suffered a suspected ACL tear.

Stupid scouts.

[Taynted_Fayth]

was it saunders that refused to play preseason game with the stamps 2 weeks ago just prior to being cut? if so, doesnt sound like the kind of player attitude Walters and MOS have been pretty vocal about being just as important as talent.  Maybe there was more to the story, or maybe im confusing him with someone else?

No, you got that right but don't know if that was the reason he was cut.  Probably just got beat out by someone with more versatility.  Would be a great temp. fill in for Stoudermire but nothing more.

[SPuDS]

Kirk Penton says the Bombers are taking a look at Jock Sanders, maybe to be the returner until Stoudermire comes back

Armsted 2.0?

Not sure about that.  Sanders released then they signed Tim Brown who is 4 years older

[M.O.A.B.]

players that i'll be interested in:

released:
OL Jaskaran Dhillon
WR Seydou Junior Haidara - 4th NI rec
OL Carson Rockhill

from other team's pr:
DL Maxx Forde
RB/KR Keola Antolin
OL James Bodanis
RB  Ray Holley - added to the 46-man roster today

[bearpants]

Bombers coulda drafted Maxx Forde in round 4, 5, or 6 this year if they had an interest in him

[Goalie]

Nobody really interests me other than Saunders as a replacement until Stouds is healthy again. Plucking guys off other PR's, i just don't see it happening, that guy would have to agree to it first of all and second of all, would a guy agree to move from one practice roster to the other? cuz none of these PR guys mentioned are really ready to be on the active roster yet or they would be with their current team..

 

I don't see guys saying yeah ok ill leave for example Montreals PR for Winnipegs. No problem.  

 

Haidara? Why both, dudes obviously a huge bust, i mean really... why not call up Jordan Sisco or Etienne for that matter and give them a shot. Seriously, he's a bust, i know some people had a love affair with the guy but all indications are he is a bust. 

[Bigblue204]

I wouldn't be surprised to see Brohm, and Veltung gone.

Well to your dismay "Canuck" Veltung is in and Gordon (the lightning fast WR is a practice squadder! Please tell me why Veltung received no and I mean no love from you guys. I told you he ran a 4.46 and gordon a 4.68... Geez I don't know but I think... well what does it matter - Justin Veltung is a starter and majority of you Canadians gave him no chance. May a crazed holy man set fire to your nose hairs!

Wtf are you talking about?

[Goalie]

Gordon is also 21. Veltung is older no? Gordon has more potential than Veltung due to age. 

[M.O.A.B.]

Veltung - I hope he has Velcro in his hands.

If you manage to pluck someone off a PR, you would have to place them on your 46 man roster.

That's pretty much what i thought so i don't see the bombers doing that.

Correct, but.....there is a short window.  A player must be cut before being offered a PR spot.   If he declines the PR spot, he can accept a PR spot on another team without being placed on the 46.   Once he has agreed to the PR spot however, the rules come into play.  Also, IIRC, if a player is on the PR, and a new team tries to claim him, the current team can maintain him by moving him onto their 46 for the next game.

[Fatty Liver]

Bombers coulda drafted Maxx Forde in round 4, 5, or 6 this year if they had an interest in him

 

Wasn't he one of the players with definite NFL prospects?

Injuries throws a wrench in your plan.

Not sure about that.  Sanders released then they signed Tim Brown who is 4 years older

 

 

Tim Brown is sitting on the Stamps PR, I'd take him over Saunders.

[Brandon]

I would take Anatolin... Then Sanders then Brown..

[Brandon Blue&Gold]

Is there a reason why we've kept two NAT fullbacks (Normand and Lattanzio) on the PR.  Seems redundant to me since we are well staffed at FB already and could certainly use a PR spot on another position/player.  Neither one could go back to school?  Does Lattanzio still have use as a DE?

Oshea said Latanzio is going back to being a DL, but is so seen as a "utility knife".

[kelownabomberfan]

Brian Guebert 2.0

[rebusrankin]

Latanzio seems too small to be a pro DL

[Jacquie]

Latanzio seems too small to be a pro DL

 

He's only a couple inches shorter than Jamaal Westerman. Latanzio: 6' 260 lbs - Westerman: 6'3" 260 lbs.
