Maybe my brain isn't working this morning but who is on the IR? Vaughters is as big as any of them and he's starting. That's what they did. Just not showed the most in the preseason games. There was a whole camp that most of us have no idea what happened at because there is no one to report on it. 2nd year guy Wheatfall beat out Mitchell and White to make the active roster. Sterns beat out Mitchell and White to make the active roster. Reports are he has chemistry with Zach. Hall made a few catches in a preseason game. So what?

I get the frustration but the signing bonuses are a sunk cost no matter who plays now. Mitchell got 63K upfront, 148K overall, so $85K for the season, ~$4.7K per game JJones got 15K upfront, 120.5K overall, so $105K for the season, ~$5.8K per game. It's game 1, so $10.5K to sit. *numbers from 3downnation so who knows if accurate Sorry. I'm an accountant. FWIW I really want to see JJones play and would prefer him on the roster. Hope he gets in soon. Mitchell it sucks to burn the bonus money but whichever of the 3 vet receivers brought in showed the most in camp gets to play. Overall much better depth position than last year at receiver and LB.

Can’t wait to argue about an actual game with you lot instead of hypothetical rosters!

Don't love all the Cdn LBs and DTs but that is the Cdn depth at the moment until all the DBs heal up. Would love to get Woods and JJones on the roster. Hard to do with the 3 american olinemen. I'm sure Wilson will get hurt soon enough and JJones can slot in.

Why are you comparing Strev to Ford anyway? Strev is a back up. No one has handed the keys to the team to Strev paid him starter money. Ford was named the 39th best player in the league! He should be playing way better than Strev.

I had Begelton. Guessed right that Calgary would score a lot, wrong guy though

Lawler will have a big season. Going to get a million targets when they are down by 2 scores every game. At least until Bo gets him knocked out with some murder balls.

Eli seems to botch a snap whenever he plays centre so that might be the line that the coaches have drawn. He's great in that 6th OL role -

The Riders are desperate for a punter having cycled through a few guys already in camp. I would love for Evans to completely dominated and been kept on, but he didn't. -

You guys are nuts with your OShea guys. I don't love Sheahan but the rookie didn't show well in the second preseason game and got asked to join the PR which he refused. This isn't some big conspiracy. Punts NO AVG LNG IN10 YDS 18 Jamieson Sheahan · P 4 51.3 62 0 205 70 James Evans · P 4 41.3 49 0 165 -

We could be worse. TiCats kept Josh Johnson on the PR. Looks like all the former bombers made the team -

Yes I forgot Wheatfall. I’m not even sure who you are upset got cut here? Nobody likes the Cdn DTs beyond Lawson, but it’s not like they cut a bunch of Cdn DTs that showed better. The American dlineman cut would have been nice to keep but Willie, Woods, Adams, Vaughters, Person for the American 3 dline spots looks good. They kept a the American LBs in Ayers and JJones. No American rookie receiver jumped off the page. -

Let’s save the bitching about who is on the game day roster vs PR until they actually set a roster for a game. Glad they kept most of the standouts from the preseason around. Cooley, Allen, Woodbey, Vaval None of the rookie American receivers showed much on anything unfortunately. -

Disappointed Gowan couldn’t grab the corner spot but he didn’t quite look shutdown in Sask. -
Person and Bailey on the PR. I’m sure they will be shuffling week to week on whether they want more D line, LBs or DBs

Thanks, seems like too many Americans on unless Mitchell is the returner.
