Bombers Rookie Camp/Training Camp/Pre-Season Thread

Sure sounds like it. Sounds like a guy who hasn’t sorted his ability to cross the border. It’s a shame. -

So we signed a rb and dt / nose tackle today. A ras over 8 for a nose under 6’1 and 300 is extremely good. Great explosion and strength numbers, looks like a real play maker in the back field. Wish we could have him and obg in camp but I assume this is obg not coming https://ulmwarhawks.com/sports/football/roster/caleb-thomas/5429 https://twitter.com/MathBomb/status/1650132414885240838/photo/1 -

Undersized is relative. For guys like Montford and walls length and explosive power and quickness played larger than life. Another 5–10 lean lbs would be an asset no doubt. But being tall and 245+ isn’t as important Imo. Especially if you rotate dl. we signed another nose tackle today so I’m guessing it’s true that obg isn’t reporting. Caleb thomas is even more athletic though and with a better pedigree. Hopefully he can be a stud. -

Yep, he was. And he could be like some of our early 2k ni Wrs Howell and drover etc. able to play any teams and back up other positions. Grant is maybe the best kr in the league, but I think Cole and Henry will put up a real battle. They are both explosive play makers with the ball in their hands. I expect the best battle we’ve seen at kr in a long long time. Both are more offensive players who return kicks as well. I think one or both with be sticking with us for a while. guys like that with top notch athleticism are hard to come by. While that’s true, the same could be said for most of the wrs who started for us the last couple years. 1 really good 40 that scouts considered and outlier. Lots of guys like lawler running high 4.7s. -

It’s insane how they made that point and missed the giant elephant in the room and source of the toxic waste heap. Also how is their ol fixed? They went with their 5th choice oc after getting rejected by every one. 5 win team. Less if Harris goes down. -

He did a tremendous job as a co founder and ceo of ONE championship. He’s a world class sports professional with a deep passion for the elk. -

Bombers Rookie Camp/Training Camp/Pre-Season Thread
wbbfan replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
With our wr depth it doesn’t much matter imo. We saw a few guys like whop last year have great camps and just have no room for them. The back up ni wr spot is more going to come down to how many pr spots we hold for it and if every one stays healthy. We don’t have a lot of bodies for ni wr, and are very top heavy in what we do have. -

Maybe he isn’t going to be at rookie camp? Damn it’d suck if he wasn’t coming up. I would think if that was they case they’d have brought in another dt already instead of a bunch of ends. -

Honestly almost every bad team needs that. They need a miracle. I worry that even winning alone might not turn things around quickly for them. Milanovich to ham seems strange. That staff has been together for a while. I can’t see them axing Coach o mid season little on doing so and replacing him with Scott. But I feel like confusion with what ham is trying to do has become the new norm. -

2022/2023 Off-Season (League/Non-Bombers-specific News)
wbbfan replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Must’ve missed him getting mop in that one lol. But he was good in that stint here, though over all still just marginally better than legs in a total of 10 kick offs. Legs had a much better average till late last year actually. None of the 2 are ideal for kick offs. But legs is certainly a bit better. But yes Sergio is pretty clutch. -

Legs avg ko last year was 4 yards deeper than Sergio’s, who had the worst gross ko distance avg of any player with more than 4 kick offs. His 2019 average was even worse. Legs is a bit better than league average and Castillo is one of the worst kick off guys in the league. -

I believe it’s because mini camp doesn’t have a cap and not every one in mini camp has a deal, they are on a camp invite. After camp I believe the base roster also gets listed, so none counted due to injury etc like Hallett will come off. Even if you take the none counters off I think we are pretty close to the 85. After mini camp cuts I’m sure we won’t have trouble being at 75. -

I love those picks. I think Matt Cole will be really good. better than Greg mcrae. I think Bennett will make the roster, and that jadrian Taylor will make an impact for us this year. tazawn Henry is a player in this league too. Might not be here though. Mos jr makes the roster this year and finds ways to make plays. I think surprise ish cuts will be Clements, joe Beckett and a vet db. And the marine makes the pr and into a game this year -

Agudosi played 2 games… wonder if it’s because he didn’t complete 2 games or if they meant 2 games. -

First over all pick and just a day or two ago the team 14th over all pick they traded for a lber retired at 23. I think this is going to be a big year for Dobson and Eli. -

It’s certainly going to be more balanced and not nearly as old as their core was in camp last year. More grey hair in the wr core last year than the coaching staff for tc. I don’t expect much from a mcadoo offense but it’ll be interesting to see if heavy balls can grow and improve. I could see him taking a big step forward this year. He was so good and smooth in limited action last year. Really excited to see what he can do. Being able to wait and develop guys like him is a tremendous luxury, not to mention having great guys for him to learn from. As the ratio quality goes so goes the team. -

This late I’d have to think so. short of some thing like losing the desire to play. The weight of pending camp is big, if you are jacked up to get on the field it can break you. Tc is as much about sorting out who really wants to play badly vs who is hoping for a pay day and avoiding a regular job. -
Don't Look Back - 2022/2023 Bombers Off Season
wbbfan replied to Wideleft's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Not surprised he was a high touted guy. But iirc usfl also pays peanuts. I’m not crazy high on mcgough, he’s more the water mark for performance in the usfl for me. I’m hoping for Randall Cunninghams kid. I feel like big (cfl big) athletic running qbs aren’t hard to find. An awful lot of guys get stuck between rb/wr and qb from hs to small ncaa schools. he is effective at running, but he isn’t particularly quick fast or powerful. Oregon was the preeminent option, zone read, running qb school when he was there. 170 yards and 3.2 ypc. He had 1 good rushing year at Montana state and couldn’t even follow that up. Bryant the concerted wr from last year wasn’t much shorter and far more dynamic and a college qb with more production. I kind of get wanting to have a running threat at short yardage and I love a running qb as qb3 maybe a holder etc too. Adds a lot of options and threat to various packages that can make a big difference in a game. I just think prukops running is replaceable. -
Don't Look Back - 2022/2023 Bombers Off Season
wbbfan replied to Wideleft's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I don’t expect Prukop back here. He can do short yardage but you can easily find a big mobile qb rookie who can do that at any time. I don’t think he’s shown he can develop as a passer at all and while he can run he’s not at all dynamic at it. Alex mcgough I believe is still on our nl about as mobile and doing much better in the usfl.
