Goalie Posted June 19, 2016 Report Posted June 19, 2016 Castillo can punt kick fgs and kickoff. He's insurance. I'm not convinced he makes the game day roster but.... if he does its not a terrible problem. Cdn depth isn't an issue really. Interesting crowd here. Last year we start 8 CDNS people ask why. This year looks like the minimum 7... people ask why pretty much. Our cdn depth is much improved. Which cdn besides Matt Bucknor who looked terrible in pre season did we get rid of that we shouldn't have?
Jaxon Posted June 19, 2016 Report Posted June 19, 2016 Players may well be moved on and off the PR and Roster before the game. (perhaps with some developing "injuries" as well) I'm not going to get worked up about 2 import kickers on the roster, or the depth chart at RB, or the list of WR's and DL until the actual game day roster/depth chart comes out. Could be lots of deals/trades in the works, and some players are more "protectable" than others. Goalie and Fan Boy 2

Previously I said it will be JFG in the 44 instead of Bastien because he is O'Shea's guy. But it make sense it to be Bastien since he plays WR while JFG plays in the slot. But both will within the 46-man roster. Just my opinion. Edited June 19, 2016 by M.O.A.B.

I don't recall seeing him play at all in the pre-season. I was thinking the same thing... don't remember much from him in practice/games... 13 hours ago, Throw Long Bannatyne said: I agree, I think it's a mistake not to have Flanders on the roster as he outperformed all other backs on the ground in both pre-season games and that includes Harris. They gave the backup job to Lochard without a single carry in either pre-season game, meanwhile Flanders will sit on the PR until Harris is injured or he rots. I agree with you, Flanders would be a much better back up.... but you simply can't ignore the ratio, and that's all there is to it... 11 hours ago, Goalie said: Castillo can punt kick fgs and kickoff.

B-F-F-C Posted June 19, 2016 Report Posted June 19, 2016 Doesn't Medlock have a history of missing games due to injury? Castillo is a great insurance policy or a valuable asset should a starting kicker/punter go down with injury. Either way I see him paying dividends. wbbfan 1
Stickem Posted June 19, 2016 Report Posted June 19, 2016 Could anyone realistically say that we should let Castillo walk after the pre-season he had...NO way we cut him and have another club grab him in a nanosecond...Especially the green team to the west and the cats down east...I'm tired of seeing assets this club has garnered, walk and star with other teams..(ex. Paredes for one)...It's about time we held on to talent and if a deal comes along that we can't refuse...pull the trigger...As someone stated already, for now Castillo is good insurance, and we'll just have to find someway to work around the fact he is an international. Fan Boy 1
TBURGESS Posted June 19, 2016 Report Posted June 19, 2016 2 roster spots for import kickers? No thanks. I'm expecting Castillo to pull 'something' and go on the 1 game IR.

JuranBoldenRules Posted June 19, 2016 Report Posted June 19, 2016 How many kicks did Castillo miss this preseason? I don't think he's the "asset" some of you guys do. He's good, but there's no shortage of guys like him.

Mike Posted June 19, 2016 Report Posted June 19, 2016 They're keeping Castillo as insurance. Big deal. Not the spectacle it's being made out to be. Logan007, Fan Boy, Goalie and 3 others 6

If we get off to an 0-4 or 1-5 start the panic is going to set in quick.

" Evidently, both Bond and Daniels are upgrades over Daniels, and the Bombers simply needed change after allowing 59 sacks in 2015. " I assume he meant Hardrick.
Captain Blue Posted June 19, 2016 Report Posted June 19, 2016 I wouldn't have kept Castillo. Would love to see if some other team wants him. I don't think he's that good, plus we are paying big bucks to Medlock. I am surprised they cut Veltung over some of the over receivers. Definitely agree McDuffie beat him out for the WR/KR spot, but some of other guys over him? I really don't think Davis is that special.
