yeah we have the guys here, and the skill sets to really set our defense on the right track....but sooooo stubborn clinging to guys who just dont make us our best....but Osh likes them....so they remain And agree...Wallace needs to stay on....yo-yopng him around is not the best thing for him....and who knows...could sit in his mind and be a deciding factor in him bolting Bailey can come on as the 45th guy for a Canadian...so take pick of Ball or Thomas...

It makes too much sense!

It sucks, I really Like Ayers and Jjones too. But we refuse to use them on D, and you just can't bury all your DI talent with guys who don't contribute on D/O. On teams, Ayers has seen a ton of double teams this year and is still making solid plays. I think his value for a purely Teams Di is the highest of anyone outside of Sergio. Maaaaaan, getting Woods on and Thomas off would be HUGE for our D. Woods and Adams inside more would be incredible. Take Kyrie out, and roll with the Jones' and Ayers with the Dime/wil package. And get Shay/Smith in some as well. Then the DL with Lawson and Schmek to rotate inside, Person and put bailey on to rotate on the edge. That front would be devastating to other teams Os. Getting Dandy on would be huge as well. Griffin is such a gem, excels in any play call, position, no matter who you have around him. He's Nichols 2.0. I'm interested to see what we do with Vanterpool when he is healthy again. I'm not sure Wallace will be coming off.

Yeah, I was thinking of Bailey on for Ayers. May see it on Labour Day to get Houston or another DB onto the roster.

You are not the only one who was (pleasantly) surprised by his performance.

yup.....same..maybe the demotion behind Korn lit a fire...If he can contribute like that game in and game out then he deserves to be on...He works great in the short yardage both sides of the ball so has purpose there beyond any extra reps he gets on defensive rotation...Thomas does not and is probably our slowest and least impactful guy off the snap....so why even bother

True but sad. Very sad.

makes sense as Osh is a poor curator of a roster...right from game One in his inaugural season...and after 12 yrs still is bad at it....it never gonna change Ayers off for Woods makes most sense......J.Jones when used a lot on defiance in that initial game that Griffin went to SAM...Well the defense looked like night and day....Lat game and the one previous....he barely got on the field, and the defense again has issues..... Smart move too would be to sit Thomas a few games and roll With Lawson and Schmeck....do we see the smart move.....probably not. And yeah Ball made 2 plays last game.....as opposed to none his other 3....so really swapping him out for Bailey or even Vibert to get some snaps and see what he adds would make sense too....but we lack in the sense department as well Jones been real good on trams tho too....Ayers gets used out of position...so why not just put Bailey on for what they use Ayers for and then figure out who of Woods and Logan gets on...we need to be tinkering and seeing what our best options are

They better not- that would scare the prunes out of them,

Thats how I see it. I'm at practice and Ayers is getting rotated in with the starters and is playing special teams.

Ayers is a poor use of a roster spot but MOS is a stubborn SOB so you know....

Osh ain't taking Thomas off the roster unless he was dead and even then it's 50/50

Unfortunately, we haven't been using Jjones much. I would expect him to come off as a DI before Ayers at this point. I would also bet that someone like Ball is more likely to come off for Lawson. Thomas would be the dream, but I dare not hope for that.

I have dumped on Schmekel but he was great last game. Thus I withdraw my previous comments.

Logan on for say Ayers would make sense and could be a boost to both the return game and the offense. If Lawson is back, do they go Lawson, Schmekel and Jake or take one off (cough JAKE cough)?

Saw a pic on FB and Schoen practicing with a large bulky brace on his knee... For what that's worth.

No changes to the starters:

Whoever complains about the McDs soft serve machine breaking often probably never went to Neon come I can't wait for the rolled up place to open so I'll have an alternative option Crafted crust at the forks had a really good Pizza Toastie I'd order it again

I wonder if we take a DI Lber off the AR for Logan, and carry both he and Vaval. Logan would be the 2nd return guy on Kick offs and could be a rotational piece on O. Atleast in theory any way. Don't really want to see Schoen back till he is at what ever his new 100% is.

I’m a bit surprised he’s back practicing. Could be a real nice boost to the offense…. If he’s actually 100%.

Doesn't appear to be any injured Bomber players from the Ottawa game. Lawson should be back in for Thursdays game. Logan looks to be an option as he's practicing.

Yeah, I agree with most of that. I think most teams, when they have MBT starting, are in a position they don't want to be in. With his combination of age, experience and what I've seen of his intangibles, I don't think he will be a lot more than what we have seen from him between edmonton and toronto. If you can really cook up an offence around him that deals with his deficiencies, you can have a productive offence. But he nor that O will be what carries you to wins. I would still be happy if we worked a trade for him with strevy. I like strevy, but I think our room needs a shake up and I don't think he has a chance with the disciples of lapo here. MBT on the other hand did his best work with jackson. They might be trying to hide him in order to protect some value in a trade, more than the money. Despite the spreading out of starters and back ups, we've seen a ton of QB injuries and some one is likely to over pay out of need later in the year. It sucks about Alexander, this could've been a big year for him. The league needs guys like that to suceed.
