I figured it will be a battle between the three - Smith, Stafford & Denmark - for the #3 & #4 receiver spot. New receivers will figure on that battle as well. Ditto between the DI DE between - Cole, Green & Jeffcoat and new DE's being brought. Ditto MAC between - Knox, Temple & W.Smith. Edited February 24, 2017 by M.O.A.B.

M.O.A.B. Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 I wonder if the Bombers will bring Michael Ritchott in training camp this year. He's the Winnipeg Rifles RB, who people says plays and run like Andrew Harris. He will come as a territorial exempt and a non-counter for sure.

Mike Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Not a bad look at the roster, but let's be realistic. There's going to be at least three guys, whether it be recruits from down south or through the draft, that are on the team week 1.

Floyd Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Have to say I'm not 'overwhelmed' by that receiving core... decent talent though - Denmark should be in over Smith Be surprised if Johnson isn't upgraded... and still think Randle could be our surprise vet cut in TC Sure would be nice to pencil in Simonise as our starting NI or replace Hardrick with a National Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this kid doesn't have a nickname already, his surname is one half of what could be a fun handle. There goes "Rocket " Richott. "Ramblin" Richott rides his way to another TD.

SpeedFlex27 Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 (edited) Why do people just give Ryan Smith a defacto lock to make this team? if anything he's the one who should be on the bubble, not Denmark.

So long as we have real good competition at training camp, whoever wins out be good. From the looks of things, we ought to have a darned good receiving corps.

Please explain why you don't like Hardrick as he was one of our best offensive linemen last year. You really want a Canadian in there who wouldn't play as well, which he wouldn't? Think back to the seasons prior to last year & remember the disaster our line was before Hardrick & Bond showed up. The days of 3 or 4 starting Canadians on the offensive line are over because they. just. aren't. good. enough.

Eternal optimist Posted February 26, 2017 Report Share Posted February 26, 2017 Apologies if I've been living under a rock, but based on that listing, I presume the Big Blue finally parted ways with Patrick Neufeld? Or is the 44-man roster listing just likely potential starters (in which case I can't blame you for not including him - I think I attended more games than him last year and I only went to the home ones).

Not a lot holes as you would think but if we could get an upgrade here in there, this team looks good. Of course, I didn't put the new guys. Dont expect davis to take no2. Dont expect flanders to DI back up either. We saw how little he is used in that situation. Smith and stafford over denmark? SMH.

I think he'll be given every opportunity to show what he's got if the opportunity presents itself (injury or blow out) if he doesn't show well after a while then I expect Lefevour to assume #2 but until then, it's his job to lose.
