The #Bombers back at work. Weston Dressler and Ryan Smith are on the field, don't look to be taking reps. Ditto for Randle, Posey, Macho

that's interesting. Sacrificing some size, but McDuffie has wheels to burn....

All he has to do is imitate Chris Williams and he's locked up the position.  Is that asking too much?

I was hoping we'd get at least one receiver back this week.  Last week, with the exception of Denmark, they were underwhelming.  So Denmark, McDuffie, K Adams, Mayo, and Kohlert this week.

McDuffie doesn't excite me, seems like a poor man's Ted Ginn, speed to burn but no hands.

So does this mean we're keeping to import backers as DIs?

no you'll just lose brain cells reading HF. Lots of people became big hockey fans about 5 years ago so i usually end up smashing my head into my desk.

Sometimes you need an elite speedster to open things up for the other guys.  Dunigan was sure raving about him.  Still lots to prove though, I agree.

Man! Bond is a monster! He makes our tackles look like centers and our center look like he should be sitting on his knee telling him what he wants for Christmas.

Missed this one.  Makes sense, Davis has under-performed and McDuffie has great potential as a burner.

I kind of like that move. Plus Fogg can keep returning kicks, with McDuffie occasionally spelling him.

i'd imagine Mcduffie will be primarily returning kicks this week

I'm guessing kickoffs with Fogg doing punt returns

Good point. Matty is like 7000th in Fantasy though, so what does he know? I mean I'm top 212.

Denmark/Kolhert/Mayo/Adams/McDuffie makes me a tad nervous to be honest. Lots of upside with the last three but potentially a high bust rate.

Matty knows that if it were him he's just want to play some huck it! chuck it! football! and put the ball as far down the field as he can and get a bunch of fast guys to run under it.

Adams needs to show something. His 25% catch/target ratio scares me.

He seems like a guy that Walters and co. fell in love with early and have waited around a long time to get him onto the team so he will get all the chances he can handle to be the player they believe he can be.

Would have loved to see one of Dressler or Smith back this week...

Looks like it. You can add Jace Davis to that list and now he is taking a seat. Hope we don't give Adams 8 weeks with similar results.

Have to say...with just a couple wins in a row I'm really starting to look forward to Bomber games again.  It was easy getting up to watch them on TV, but walking to IGF was starting to become a real drag...

fingers crossed some guys are healthy and 100% this week.

Adams is awful. I don't see anything in him myself. I hope he's the first guy benched once one of our injured trio is ready to return.

My friend is in the top 3 in Canada and I don't think he's watched a single game all year

These guys are going to be awesome once Walters finds them appropriate footwear!

We could use some one to stretch the D, but I dont trust mcduffies hands. 

I assume the assumption is McDuffie as the speed guy, Adams as the physical receiver who wins jump balls and Mayo as a more all around guy, Kolhert as the safety valve and Denmark as the leader. It makes sense on paper but the lack of experience/production thus far has me worried.
