I very much doubt it. I suspect that mcknight is still a head of agudosi, though Id prefer to see him. Nelson is probably above mcknight, and might be above rosie sadly. I really hope nelson isnt that high on the depth chart. For ratio, the only way we could get the extra imp wr on the roster would be to go NI at Wil again, which was exploited pretty heavily the last time by the elk. We then also wouldnt be able to DI both kyrie and rocquemore. As we are using DI spots on a kicker, grant, and sayles. If woli cant go I think we see oleary orange activated and tyrrell start. We can use more of the heavy set with Eli at TE, and we could (but probably wont) finally run some 2 back stuff and motion harris through H back range and lean on him more as a pass catcher. I dont know if its a mistake, but olumba the DB we just signed is listed on the active roster on the website.

I grew up in a multi generational drug and alcohol abuse family. Its why ive never drank or done any drugs. And when I was 16 my mom was put in a wheel chair and remains disabled to this day from an accident with a drunk driver. Alcohol is an awful drug and it baffles me how its considered so much less then soo many soft drugs. Drunk driving is among the worst decisions you can make. But at the same time, for an alcoholic whose drunk the decision making process isnt cut and dry. I hope he gets the help he needs. Hes a great player and seems like a good person. Health has to come before football. Be it physical, mental or what have you. Im guessing by the way things are being dealt with that he is going to attempt to get the help needed. I hope that if he doesnt however, if he quits or goes through the motions, that we dont play him again. I wonder if we might make a call into deveir posey now.

With the tite alignment teams are playing against us unless buck has some serious progression run plays planned it isnt likely. Demski and adams could carry a lot of heft too. We could If woli is out put Harris at slot and send out Brady or Augustine at back.

Yeah. I'd also be happy to see agudosi too. Some offensive reps for Grant. I hope Lawler gets his s$%^ together.

who will fajardo blame when he cant make 50/50 passes now?

I think stove and kyrie will have the flex seal taken care of.

haha not exactly. A 1 gap player lines up in a gap between two blockers and rushes the gap. More modern defenses try to use 1.5 gap defenders, where they rush 1 gap and have to watch the other then shed the block and make a tackle in another gap. Its hard to find good 1.5 gap defenders and they are worth their weight in gold in the NFL, especially if they can get after the qb a bit. Finally you have the 2 gap defensive tackle. The 2 gap player lines up in 0 technique, at nose tackle directly over the center. His responsibility is to flow to either guard-center A gap and stuff the run. Some times this is done by discipline, anchor your position then disengaging from the C and scraping to the ball carrier in the gap. Other times this is done by mashing the center back and removing the A gaps entirely. The later happens when an OL is playing a tight blocking scheme, especially in man blocking. Or tossed suhk, then ripped the center down and filled the gap between michael reillys ears with his heft.

Idk, I think cornys ability to run, size and strength are going to help him. Harris rattles and becomes toxic too. But coming in mid game for harris is probably the best case scenario for the elk. This is the trap of all trap games, but we've seemed too focused to give into that type of thing so here is hoping it plays out.

Its between biggie and jeffcoat, though alexander deserves some consideration too. BA opens up a lot of different looks for biggie. I dont think jeffcoat will get the votes he deserves though, the ends are gonna split each others chances imop. -

They should have that and call it the stegall award. I think collaros is the dominant favorite. I think defensive players get a but of a snub, but we dont have a most outstanding offensive player so I get it. Having an offensive player of the year and an MVP would be better. -

Yeah. He certainly doesnt have the supreme physicality of strevy. But the playbook with streveler here in 19 was pretty dreadful too. They could keep 2 or 3 of his passing plays with that timing route. I dont think we had 1 good passing play that strevy was comfortable or happy with. But he wasnt physically limited throwing either. Lynch couldnt be any worse passing down field than CF. He just couldnt be. Its like lefevour when he was in a bad streak, but every single pass. -
I dont do fantasy sports. But I would suggest taking dedmon on teams if possible. Too bad punters dont get fantasy points. Leone would crush it.

Up next its gonna be KSB hyped as the MOP candidate... All games really are trap games at this point. But Ive never been less worried about trap games than with this bombers team. These guys 100% buy into the go 1-0 this week mantra. They stay hungry, and angry. No matter the situation or score they are playing physical, aggressive football. its 90s night too!

Idk if its back bone or smarts. Or even some thing else. But what ever it is, I think they, really dickenson, lack it enough to not do what they should. 100% they should get lynch in some. I think if they did, he would be starting for them pretty quickly. I dont think harker is great, but in comparison passer to passer, I think hes much less limited than CF is. Harker is tiny, but people said the same thing of charles roberts. Im sure he isnt blink, but isnt cantthrowdo either. Of course they wont pull CF. So itd have to be lynch in for harker. But I think no matter what they do, they have to start getting throwing reps in with some one else. Cody would be pretty good as a back up and change of pace guy who can run streveler stuff. As crazy as it sounds, Id take ottawas trio of rookie qbs duck, christion, and evans over the riders 3 qbs. I think we are going to quickly enter the point of critical value loss for CF. Where he will be a good back up, but would have to take a real cut in cash. He's gonna be 30 before the next season starts. And despite the added time off not only has he failed to improve from 19, he's gotten worse. -

If the lions are eligible then yes he will. But I dont see any chance of the lions finishing in the bottom 2 of the league. -
If not harris it shouldve been willy. Ive never seen or heard of a team averaging 10-100 ish in penalties. Thats a huge hole to try and dig out of. Id love to see the average season wins with each penalty per game from 4 or 5 - 10. Wont lie, I liked the offense danny barrett ran. he was way way ahead of the times. Seems like a backhanded compliment at best imo.

He did, but it was also an era of extremely heavy man cover, with far fewer targets and DBs on the field. A SAM back then was still a true LBer. And rangy Safteys that could cover side line to side line were exceedingly rare in the NFL. Its funny but between the two Id take nichols in a play off game. And glenn during the season. Glenn knew how to burry teams. Nichols didnt win a play off game, but he always played his best football in the play offs and in the clutch. Glenn had a tendency to throw un timely picks. The worst thing Nichols did in the play offs was criminally under throw some deep balls to wide open guys. 08 had 3 1k wrs, romby, armstrong, and TE plus milt and a pretty good arjei franklin. that was the year fred reid came over too.

Junior has been shredding the BCFC like hes auditioning for the zach collaros crew in 2022. jason maas as blake is gonna tear him a new pooper. "Who am I?" (completes a pass more than 15 yards down field) "Thats who the F$%^ I AM." -

I think you guys might have a QB controversy before the end of the season. The back up didnt look bad vs us, and lynch on the PR can probably do similar to CFs passing game too. -
was Talking about ability to execute possession passing offense. But yes no question the best since khari. And he's better than khari right now. Khari used to throw a ton of picks. And Nichols. And 90 percent of our qbs from 91 to current.

I've always had poor experiences traveling through and visiting sask. I'll have to avoid it and look out cars with sask plates. Might try and dump a load of manure on my lawn too. They would probably say the cfl illuminati are giving us breaks and extra flags. Cognitive dissonance is a b.

https://3downnation.com/2021/10/03/elks-qb-trevor-harris-slated-to-return-against-winnipeg/ Boy that sounds like an awful idea lol. All of them it seems. Imagine one is about go go to the ir or get cut.

Interesting. Even more so that he ended up here and not there. For sure. Seems like he might be a fit for the modern wave of Sam in the cfl. But looks like he could be a candidate at any position. Love the pick up.

Bombers add 2 to roster. https://www.bluebombers.com/2021/10/03/blue-bombers-transactions-october-3-2021/ NI lber robbie lowes, who was our 4th round pick this year. IMP db donovan olumba. 6'2 205. Olumba spent 2 years on the cowboys PR. Then went to the browns, then was with the rams. The rams were high on him in 2020 and he took first team reps for a while. Had a crazy pick 6 in an nfl pre season game. In college in 30 games over 3 years with the small school of Alderson-Broaddus University he had 25 pass knock downs, 6 picks, 2 pick 6s, blocked 2 kicks, and returned a punt for a td. He transferred to portland state for his senior year starting 15 games, knocking down 7 passes and adding 2 TFL. Athletically he's tall, long, with great jumping ability and rangy type speed. Hes got good hands for a db too. https://ramblinfan.com/2021/08/06/la-rams-waste-no-time-signing-db-donovan-olumba/
