I would much rather go with a Canadian at receiver than Hurl at LB. 

I'd prefer Morgan and Loffler at safety before either of those options...

Well yeah, getting Macho Harris off the field would be great but that isn't happening.

What the heck is a pocket full of Posey anyway?

A posy/posey/posie is a bouquet of flowers.  In the rhyme it could refer to the black plague, and people carried around a posy of herbs (aka flowers) that supposedly helped fend off the sickness.

It's what you told your parents you were holding for a friend.

Sam can play a bit,  the other Canadian WR cant beat man coverage 9 out of 10 times. MTL a heavy man team

Andrew Harris not practicing with blue bombers. Doubtful for Friday's opener.

The most memorable thing about Posey to me is his tree-trunk legs. He looks like he could sub for a bridge pier.

One shrimp in Glenn does cancel some of that out however ...

Does A Harris now lose his job to Flanders?

if this means a Canadian at safety instead of Macho it doesn't make it all better, but does soften the blow a bit.

I'm tempted to call this the most Bomber thing ever but that's an overreaction.  It will only be the most Bomber thing ever if he's day to day for four weeks, comes back and is ineffective for four weeks, gets hurt again, and is released in the off-season by the new management.

I knew I'd be dusting this off for the 2016 season at some point, just didn't think it would be BEFORE the season even began...sigh...

Wally's a genius.  He probably knew this was going to happen in week one 2016 back in 2015, which is why he didn't re-sign him.

I wish you hadn't said that... I'm going to have nightmares for weeks now...

Wow, the Lock of the Week just got blew up.

Wally isn't a genius to see this possibility, a GM just has to be paying attention to the past to see the future.  I can see both the Harris and Dressler signings being questioned in the future and doubt either player will be on the team 2 years from now.

Looks like Hurl won't be available so no worries there about the LB, I'm OK with JFG over Davis.

Hiddely ho!  Flanders to start!!

[bearpants]

Davis to JFG is a huge drop off... hopefully Harris to Flanders isn't that big of a difference...

Both are huge. The ratio impact is huge.

Can Flanders block and catch like Harris can? (I'm really not sure)
