Guys sitting on the pr want to play they aren’t turning down roster spots, especially chances to start hence why pr players picked nearly always go to the new team. You can be ir’d then scratched too. Don’t know what was offered. Montgomery was in the aafl then xfl and bc camp/pr twice.

Montgomery and piggy both poached since we last had some one decline a claim.

I remember that one for sure. I feel like there was a report after of another guy who wasn’t named but not sure.

When’s the last time a bomber said no to being plucked from the pr? 2019?

I wonder what it’ll take for people to wake up?

Reductio ad absurdum at its best. I remember when the same was said of old Dave. Same is true of every player coach in history. About the best to be expected out of mos. I hope we don’t lose Habba and I hope it doesn’t cost us. Bad db at Sam, 3rd best dl on the pr, worst imp on the team on the game day. hope Hansen is ready soon.

Imo the cfl took a back step a few years ago. Teams pushed the boundaries on after the play crap more and more and the CFL just didn't crack down on it. Now its rampant. The huge huge majority of the time you do see a penalty on after the play chippiness it is off setting. No one gets ejected. League needs to really clean the game up.

To be fair we have often wasted a di on offence. Remember Flanders being a di over and over again not to see the field once? Wonder if Hansen is staying on the ir. That’d be really weird after two weeks of full practices.

Watch him get poached by another team now. 9-3 roster management. 9 bad moves 3 good ones.

Gotta get both Habba and Hansen on if they are healthy. Really hope we don’t take Parker off and go with no real back up db again.

If it’s for Jackson great. If it’s for Cole boooo. Checked and he did get waived from the jets ir finally with a buy out. Might be waiting till he’s healthy to sign. Imagine how many jerseys they’d sell in that one day if they signed him for the bjb? Lol fuel some nice over spending for the rest of the year.

You should’ve watched them all, dominant through most of our games in the score board? We’ve turned it up late in a big chunk of our wins after playing well but being close. same argument comes out after each loss or ugly game. But our record! It’s one loss, no 2 no 3 but our record!!!! Edmonton bc and Saskatchewan have embarrassed us in games. Ott beat us and we made ham look like contenders. Basement dweller basement dweller middle of the road east team. They didn’t answer the bell vs ott, bc, ssk. I mean that’s a great job of coming right back if you want to lose a division semi

Better off with Brady Demski or Bailey getting touches. A lot better.

Puke should be happy to still be getting pay days in pro football.

This type of roster miss management and ego over performance is how you get that prior state. 2 losses to bad teams and a whole bunch of flat poor performances. You can make excuses all day, fact is this team has Been punched in the mouth repeatedly this season and wilted constantly. Win lose or draw this team didn’t need excuses for 3 years. Now we need them nearly every week.

Imagine that guy coming off the edge to block a kick? It’s insane how we fall in love with guys who can’t return as return men and a marine who can only block down in size has no use on teams or o but won’t use a guy who made his bones as a specialist. Some times it seems like mos is trolling with the roster or soo complacent in his teams character that he thinks we can’t lose.

Only thing I can think is the WRs are just talent grabs guys we’ve wanted for a while. That or it’s advanced looks for tc next year though it is early for that. 4 WRs on the pr is crazy given our current depth though. If we aren’t going to make use of Agudosi on teams then we should probably just move on from him. I’d rather see him get a di spot than Jackson or gmc and get used in packages down field and a lot of teams use but it’s still not ideal. wonder who we cut.

Same. Though at his age he has to turn a corner fast to be more than tcf next year. If we had another ni at a more needed position or better one available I’d cut Bennett in a heart beat. The pr needs a heavy shake up.

I wouldn’t bet against the bombers on an 85 point spread. If they don’t come out and play the best game of the year we are screwed. But I’m sure we will.

Not to mention Schmekel on the pr. Ford is a fantastic add for us. Between he and Hansen we could have the perfect depth boost combined with fixing our das even with out using the nat ni.

Plus it’s not just that fraction of this years pay. If he came back then he would be off his rookie deal and eligible for free agency in the cfl next year. Wouldn’t be hard for him to get 100k from some one pro rated should the nfl not call him back. If he stays down south doesn’t get any money then comes back here early next season he plays the whole next year at this rate maybe with a long term extension that officially closes his window as we have no reason to give him more for the year. Coming back now and getting off the option, getting more film and qualifying him self for a fa cfl deal plus keeping his nfl window open for next year is clearly the winning decision. Plus given our injury status if he comes back and returns kicks till grant is healthy he could open a whole other venue of getting into the nfl for him self.

152 dbs cut in the nfl on the same day as him. Including a former first round pick. He doesn’t have less guys to compete against next year, just different guys. He is competing against guys cut last year and the year before. Guys with out pr time, and guys on the fringe with other teams. He isn’t on the call list with other teams you can believe that. The packers cut 6 other dbs. They have 3 cbs on the pr, one on the pup list and 4 on ar. Stokes on the pup list will go back to the ar in 4 weeks. His phone isn’t gonna ring. You can be paid more if the bombers choose. You can’t demand a higher rate deal.

It’s been degrading since the 21 gc win. Gray shouldn’t be a guard, nuefeld is toast, kola is pr quality. Bryant and hardrick as good as they are can’t carry the interior of our ol. I’d swap Eli for kola and Dobson for gray and run 6ol a lot more with gray basically being a starter and woli a sub. Then kola would be the back up.

We can’t say how close he was to making a roster. Each team went from 90 to 53 guys. That’s over 1000 cuts league wide. 512 of those go to the pr. That means he wasn’t in the top half of the cuts from his camp. very few guys sit the entire time on an nfl pr. Guys are cut and swapped all the time. Getting one or two checks does not make him more likely to get a regular roster spot and another check. And that doesn’t make him more likely to stay. Lots of guys get looks then cut. Drew desjarlais didn’t get a single pr check, as a much more talented and experienced player at a much higher position of need in the nfl. The bombers could give him 80 prorated or a bonus that brings him up to 100k with play off money. Which would be over 8 weeks of pr money. Not many guys fail to make the pr and then make a game day roster in the same year.

Has an db ever gone from the cis to the nfl on an active roster or pr with out playing against a wr in the us? I can’t think of any. Other than qb that is probably the hardest spot for a Canadian to go from cis to nfl. The difference between lining up against cis WRs and D1 WRs is gigantic. He barely played in the cfl and while our calibre of wr is really good up here, they aren’t the massive guys down south.
