  1. Well if he stays healthy this year I have a hard time seeing anyone other than maybe Watson getting the Bombers' nomination for top Canadian
  2. I'd be surprised if either of them is NOT on the 42 to be honest.
  3. Dan West with two interceptions already this morning, according to Bob
  4. Just give the guy whatever he wants.
  5. He is becoming a high school coach... http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports ... 70251.html
  6. From the Sun: "Meanwhile, the team also announced the release of import linebacker Daniel Sheffield, who had yet to report to training camp." Yes I know that much, wondering why though. He was at rookie camp.
  7. I wonder what happened with Sheffield. Nice to see Renaud getting a shot, looking forward to seeing him in camp.
  8. We all wanted to get away from road griller. Seriously.
  9. Stephan had an injury history? I'm pretty sure his injury was a new one... Can't really blame anyone for that. Also I agree with TBURGESS... I have no problem using later picks on talented players who have histories of injuries. Pencer is the only one that was really questionable, IMO. No problem with using 4th rounders on guys like DiCroce and Woodson.
  10. I'd love to see Chick here. He's a hell of a defensive end... Hall and Chick on the ends? That would be awesome. That said, I have a hard time seeing him land here. Possibly Mack just driving up the price for the Cats or Riders.
  11. Agreed on Miles. I think he looks great. Thanks for the report.
  12. Well you guys can engage in as many fantasies as you want, but Denmark will still be starting for us on day 1.
  13. don't be fooled by speed. speed is one thing and hand is one thing. Floyd fooled us by his speed but can consistently catch the ball. From the reports, looks like the Kennedy and Massey are the fastest in rookie camp. Of the two, Kennedy has the surest hand. I'd agree with that... but I still think Denmark has them both beat in both categories. Denmark looked the fastest at mini-camp, no question, though Massey got a lot of love because he was a new guy.
  14. I'm not too worried about it. As our 5th NI receiver, maybe we can stash him on the IR and let him heal up until he's really needed.
  15. Jameze Massey is definitely quick but with his incredibly small size I have a hard time seeing him being effective in the receiving game. It's almost like every catch he makes has to be an outstanding catch because the ball is way above his head. Sure its nice to see great catches, but how consistent can a guy be when every catch has to be a circus catch? Still, I like his potential in the return game.
  16. 72 is Brett Carter from the Rifles. Good report Mike, appreciate it.
  17. Signed and resigned. Meanwhile, Gavin Walls was three times the player over on the strong side. Walls, while I thought he was a great player while here.. I wonder how he would stack up to the DEs we have seen in the last few seasons.. Hall, Mainor, Hunt, etc.. (I don't count O'dell as he wasn't one of our finds) I do miss Canada though, seriously, was there a better last name donned on a jersey in the CFL? I'd still take Walls over Mainor but Hunt and Hall are studs for sure.
  18. I won't be shocked if any of the starters lose their job but I would be surprised. I think best case scenario is the starters keep their jobs, not because they've been handed to them but because they're still the best. Experience is valuable.
  19. This is insanity! How can I turn down a deal like that??? I'm going to be spending $50 on 50/50 tickets every game now
  20. what that supposed to mean? is he on the way out? No... airplane mode on his phone will just prevent him from getting butt-trucked by data charges
  21. It was pretty full but I found a spot in the visitors' lot (free) with no issues.
  22. I'd agree with that. He didn't do much yesterday but today he made some nice catches in traffic and held on to the ball. Michael DiCroce also had a pretty good session. He missed a couple but also had some nice catches. He caught a nice 20-30 yarder from Chase Clement. You can definitely see the potential there. Carl Fitzgerald still looks pretty raw but he's getting a lot of work since he's the only running back or fullback at rookie camp. He has to work on being more aggressive catching the ball in traffic, because that's what he's going to be doing if he gets the chance to catch the ball in game... still, I like the potential there too. He needs to realize he's bigger and stronger than some of the guys out there, even though they are older and more experienced... needs to use that to his advantage. As far as the import receivers go, Doug Pierce caught a lot of balls today and looked pretty good doing it. I didn't notice Anderson much today. My guys are Wallace Miles and Trevor Kennedy... both look good. Miles is the most polished looking receiver, catches almost everything, kinda reminds me of Denmark in 2011 training camp. Not a whole lot more to say. I thought Goltz stepped up a bit today and looked pretty good. Again the linemen were just doing drills but I liked Zach Anderson's intensity and heard him getting some praise. Started to rain near the end, I'm guessing they end up in the indoor soccer complex this afternoon. Unfortunately I can't attend, so this is it for today.
