From Bob Irving:

"Mike oshea tells his CJOB radio show Andrew Harris and quincy mcduffie are questionable vs calg., gerrard sheppard out for a few weeks"

 

I guess that'll leave us with Denmark, Dress and Mayo as our import receivers if mcduffie has to sit. 

We should sign somebody, somebody like Courtney Taylor, who suddenly is available. Somebody should be checking the airport for him. 

Has there ever been an update on Darvin Adams? I haven't heard a thing since he went down...

Heath could have an opportunity to be DI this week to backup Fogg and Leggett.

With the NFL season starting up, for those interested here's a list of players with previous CFL experience that were recently cut from NFL rosters:

The article is a few weeks old (Sept 4), but likely still has merit.

O'Shea said on the Coach's Show he's out for a couple more weeks.  He also said Adams accumulated 500 yards in 5 games.

Don't practice rosters expand today?  I'm sure some new blood will be brought in.  Maybe Jace Davis gets another shot?

Practice rosters expanded 10 days ago, but the teams can activate their 30-day window any time they want from that point.

 

The Bombers activated theirs today and are adding 5 bodies to the PR - apparently those will be a QB, WR, DB and 2 DL

I did not know it worked like that.  Interesting that an element of strategy could be used in making those decisions.

Harris in street clothes...not practicing today.

Also non-participants: Dressler, McDuffie, Smith, Sheppard, Cole, Cummings, Corney, Bass, Wild, and Macho Harris. #Bombers

Wow.  I hope some of these are just maintenance days.

I would assume Dressler, Cole, Cummings, Corney, Bass are all maintenance days.

The Vikes and Dolphins were high on Bethel-Thompson, interesting pick up.

yeah I am assuming Dressler just needs a break from carrying the passing game on his back. 

Padded practice today so make sense to give guys a day if they are nicked 

Andrew Harris described as doubtful for Saturday's game.

T.J. Heath getting first-team reps at halfback. #Bombers #CFL

Darrin Bauming @DarrinBauming

Gerrard Sheppard and Quincy McDuffie are the only two new injuries amongst #Bomber players that look to be longer-term.

I would assume Mayo in for Sheppard, if McDuffie and Harris don't go who gets added to the roster to replace McDuffie?

Twitter says Gudino takes the extra Rec spot, but not sure who'd take the roster spot of McDuffie...possibly Heath? Maybe Fogg returns kicks full time and Heath plays HB?

Much as I am a fan of #33, apart from the ratio thingie, I do not see us losing much at all, and to speak heresy, we may be even a tad better at the RB position.
