The roster was basically set before camp started.  Ain't that right Bennett.

I believe Demski was a RB in high school and got moved to receiver on the Bisons.  Dobie had him, Coombs and LaFrance as backfield options at the same time for at least two seasons so it was about finding a way to put all the weapons on the field at the same time.

If TBurg isn't going to be a contrarian, who is?
 
I'd change one of my picks if the system allowed it.  A few years ago that was an option.

I'd say he was drafted on his potential yet almost every time he was given an opportunity he failed to live up to it.  Who knows what the coaches would say, but my observation was his ratio of targets to receptions was a bit dismal.  How long do you wait for someone who supposedly has all the tools to show he can build something?
 
And still it's a surprising cut to me; going into the season with a roster that only has 3 NI receivers on it is risky.

His one and only start came in 2015 (his first year with Winnipeg) in the final, meaningless, game of the season and he went 16/25 for 169 yards, 0 TD 0 INT, plus 9 rushes for 34 yards. They lost. He was not terrible. Certainly not great. Then we kept him around for 2 more years and when he finally had a chance to start again, LeFeveour inexplicably got the start ahead of him.
I have no idea whether Davis will turn into a good starting QB or not but it just seemed like really bizarre management of a player to develop him for so long and then bail on him at the very last moment when he actually had a shot.

He didn't start for us when Nichols got hurt.
That's the problem I have with his time here.  Nichols got hurt early and Davis came in cold with #2 reps - no boohoo's, that's the life of the backup QB.  He didn't catch fire right out of the gate but also had 2 terrible wide-open hit-them-in-the-hands drops from his receivers (one was Dressler) on 2nd down that killed any positive momentum he might have gained and desperately needed.  Then the "fans" do what they do and start booing, so LeFevour gets the nod after halftime.  He was no better.  Worse considering Davis at least protected the ball.
Okay, Davis didn't look great but now you have the whole week to let him practise with the number 1 offence and get all the starter reps before the Calgary game.  Instead they go back to Lefevour and made him the starter.  No surprise, he sucked and almost got Harris decapitated on one of the dumbest screen passes I've ever seen thrown.
Do I care that Davis is gone?  We seem to have some good ones here.
Is Davis good?  I don't know.  We had a chance to find out and instead went with Cowbell LeFevour.  He'll probably get a few games to find his way in Ottawa.  I'm sure he'll have struggles, there's no substitute for having a 300 pound DT squash you when it comes to learning how to QB.
I guess I wish him well.  He continued to stick it out in football waiting for his break.  This is it.  Good luck to him.
