Week 7 - E(l)ks @ Blue Bombers - GDT
He’s like if you had an athletic d1 imp version of Sheridan. He and Eli are real nasty pieces of work too. Some thing we’ve missed since desjarlais left.

Bigger dbs these days yeah. Darby is 206 des Lawrence is 6’0 202 Karamoko is 6’2 213. Every team has a couple dbs like that now. Lots of guys filling that moncrief type role, who as the Sam for the riders is bigger than our wils. 6’ 200 will probably the about the average size of the elks dbs tonight.

Any thing that involves pro football quality players on the roster would make me happy.

Couture was hurt in 21. speller moved to C for the play offs he was at G before that. We also used to use Eli at C and guard on the heavy set and kick the smaller inside guys out side. Speller was a good one. Went to Toronto and disappeared after I think. Injuries maybe?

Wil is more of a strong saftey position these days in the cfl. Clements is 216 Cole is 207 kyrie is 215 Briggs is 211. More and more teams are going to bigger sams and smaller wils to the point where soon you won’t see much of a physical difference.

Eli started 4 or 5 games at C in 2021 when couture was hurt.

It’s all coming together finally!

Week 7 - E(l)ks @ Blue Bombers - GDT
The entire inside of the ol. Neuf has been toasted. Gray too. Gray should be the 6th ol in the heavy set. He’s great on that edge. Dobson, Eli etc aren’t good at that. Eli in at C is the big win we need. His first touch goes for a td. Bell time!

Boo share the drama! Lool

Week 7 - E(l)ks @ Blue Bombers - GDT
Don’t think he’d stay on if he was. that’s a good start. Now get Eli in at C are we are talking.

Week 7 - E(l)ks @ Blue Bombers - GDT
I’m confident we will win and handily out play the elk. It’s all about keeping Zach healthy. And some other guys.
-
Week (7) of E(l)ks at Bombers
He might. But I can’t imagine he would out play Cole. Or that he would out play better ratio balance.
-
Week (7) of E(l)ks at Bombers
As long as Zach stays healthy. That’s the biggest L possible.

I think it’s not about us being able to sign guys. I think it’s the pr crammed with dead weight. We keep bringing in super high up side guys and they are gone as fast as they came. No commitment to developing guys.

Because our roster management is about as good as discipline is on a Craig Dickinson team. It’s hard to evaluate the source of the issue. But I think a lot more people will have eyes on ba for a bit.

I see no reason why Cole couldn’t start. He’s clearly got an extremely high football IQ, motor, and tremendous athleticism. He’s tough as nails and really sells out the body to make plays happen for other guys. The only issue I could see is him possibly doing too much with teams and D but take him off teams or use him sparingly. Our cover team has been drastically better with the guys walters brought in. When Hansen and the goat are back we probably have the best cover team in the league. Man if Zach gets hurt for real, again behind this ol things are gonna get real ugly real fast in bomberville. We would solidly be the 2nd worst team in the league with out Zach.

Yep I flubbed it. Fixed now. agree on Kramdi and Darby. At least Kramdi has shown flashes. Though Parker would make even more sense. Ba and Darby switching could be a great move certainty worth trying imo. yeah it’s gonna be a ugly battle in the trenches for us. Desjarlais would’ve been huge to get back. If we had him at G again and Eli at C with Dobson and gray on the roster that’s a wicked deep ol. Don’t worry. They are gonna be chucking as deep as the ol allows a lot this game.

Right. Corrected it.

Week (7) of E(l)ks at Bombers
The best part is, we will have a few good drives on offence and put up points. Then coast and and let edm get close. But we will narrowly win the game due to Edms incompetence. And because of going 1-0 this week we will go into the bye with mos happy and coming out of it he will make no changes. Just in time for us to host BC here with a very similar roster +\- injuries to this week. Then get our asses handed to us by bc, again, losing the season series. We could be a border line .500 team after the bjb at this rate.

I would Love that guy on the roster, if he was an NI. Yep yep yep. They are all perfect professionals too who do all the pre needed and always come out at 100% never flat at all nope nope nope!

Week (7) of E(l)ks at Bombers
We are desperate we just don’t know it yet. We brought guys in who played wil in college. Good looking prospects. We quickly cut one after few reps in pre season, moved another to de and the last one didnt look like he had practiced at all. Have a need? Fill a need. That the guy who filled the spot, then cut his ass.

What the actual F$&@. Is Chris jones managing our roster? Maruo starting at wil lolwut? The same guy that got perma benched from teams last year? Why not just got ni? Or hey give Cole a shot at wil. He’s brilliant on teams. Bennett the only rush end? Don’t even dress an extra dt so we can flip walker out side for reps? They could’ve atleast rostered Jackson as a de and rotate him. He won’t be worse than Bennett. It feels like the Argos are us in 2021, and now we are the 2021 tiger cats… whats the definition of insanity? Our roster management. I don’t think we used a naturalized player last week did we? But mos is locked up. I can see it now. We lose walters in the off season to a rebuilding Edmonton. Goveia goes to Hamilton or Ottawa for a better title and to be closer to home. And mos becomes our hc and gm.

You’re right i must be outta my mind. instead let’s dress 8 ol, 0 cover dbs, and only one shakey punt returner. While we are at it, maybe we could dress Schmekel again. We are below our quota for dead weight roster spots. Ohh let’s di fox as well but not use him. Now that is Championship roster management. 🫡 Speaking of fox he’s been on the pr a while. Bout time to cut him so another team can grab him.

If Habba is able to go, start him naturalize jeffcoat, then start lawler and di both gmc and Agudosi. Then use Agudosi on teams as well.

CFL - 2023 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
It’s far easier to hide a guy at guard too with an elite centre. I do think gray long term is a rt if he takes the next step forward. But I don’t see hardrick moving on or us moving on from him other than due to health reasons in the medium term. Richmond would also be better as a T atleast in the short to medium term as well. I think best option is Eli in at C this week. Dobson at G for gray after the bye. Gray becomes the 6th ol, which he’s excellent at that role. Trade or pr kola, then shake loose a pr ol and fill that spot with a dt, db, lber, rb, kr, or useful teams / depth / developmental ni guy. Brady has battled injury bug this year and seen some real tough sledding games. Spelling him more frequently with gray as a 6th ol and either Demski or GMC at back would be a great way to keep him healthy and maximize his career length. Even use that for max protect passing to get collaros more comfortable and keep him safe and not as a heavy running formation wouldn’t be bad.
