In this scenario, I'm operating under the assumption that Mo Leggett isn't going to play for us in our first game.

QB - Nichols, Davis, LeFevour

RB - Harris, Flanders, Normand, Rush, Miller

REC - Adams, Dressler, Denmark, Lankford, Feoli-Gudino, Coates

OL - Bryant, Bond, Goossen, Chungh, Hardrick, Neufeld, Couture

DE - Westerman, Okpalaugo, Jeffcoat, Corney

DT - Nevis, Johnson, Thomas, Ekakitie

LB - Wild, Hurl, Carmichael, Miles, Briggs, Gauthier

DB - Alexander, Randle, Heath, Johnson, Fogg

S - Loffler, Jones

K - Medlock

LS - Rempel

Not sure that at this point in time, that makes total sense for us. Fogg, Medlock, Jeffcoat and Flanders as designated imports sounds great, but I'm not thrilled with Lankford starting. I see him in the lineup somehow though, so I don't think they DI him and start Washington - although I am optimistic that it's a possibility, since O'Shea singled Washington out as a guy who made Stafford expendable yesterday.

If I had it my way ... Washington replaces Lankford, who isn't even on the roster at all and they swap out Couture (2-man reserve) and put Yachison on the active roster. But if Leggett starts, where does Carmichael fit in? I still want him on the field, but you can't have Flanders, Carmichael, Fogg, Jeffcoat and Medlock all playing. Would Fogg sit?

So many questions.

Bruce Johnson's hand was in a cast which makes me think he might be out a week? Fogg starts perhaps?

I can't see a world where we start JT and Hurl without dressing Poop.

If we didn't, it would be pretty shitty.

 

I'll see myself out.

I agree with the exceptions that I think C. Johnson will play over Jeffcoast

and Spooner may have to dress if Couture can't play he was one of the walking wounded at yesterdays practice.

 

I just don't see a way we don't have Jeffcoat and Johnson in the lineup. It wouldn't make a whole lot of sense.

Neufeld would step in if Couture wasn't able to go

Yes agreed I didn't see him in the list above so I forgot about him he isn't on the PR or listed on the 46 above so he would have to be on the 1 Game INJ if Couture plays otherwise if Couture can't go it will be Neufeld Unless he truly is INJ in the practice which is very possible with Neufeld.

I went to practice for a bit yesterday and was very impressed with L. Washington he looks like he could be the Bombers best deep threat they have had since Chris Matthews, my only concern with him at this point would be his weight it sounds like the Bombers might have listed him a few pounds heavier than his actual weight based on his comments in his interview yesterday. Washington looks like he played in all of his games at Missouri so he must be fairly durable and he was the 25 ranked WR in the 2014 draft class. 

 

Washingtons time of 4.43 is impressive most players in the CFL don't get to go to the NFL Combine so we have to go by their pro days and pro day times are about .05 faster than the NFL Combine so his adjusted pro day time would be about 4.38 and the is extremely fast for a player 6'3" ( Update Washington ran a 4.43 at his pro day still fast but not sub 4.4 )

Roc Carmicheal ran a 4.76 at the NFL combine and a 4.41 at Clemson's Pro day Carmicheals actual time is probably somewhere in between, the point being is Washington should be one of the fastest player on the Bomber and possibly in the league.

I believe it just based on the 60 yard toss he caught from Davis.  I was sure Davis had overthrown him but he covered a lot of ground & made a nice grab.

Any idea who #19 is at the Bomber practice today Blaszko is #88 and #19 was beside him however we don't have a 19 on the roster.

 

 

 

I was going to say that Blazko looks like Jade Etienne with those tooth-pick legs but then I also see he is even wearing Etienne's old number.  I wonder if his mom is hot?  

I thought someone clarified yesterday that it was Xander Tachinski standing with Bill Blaszko...?

88, 82 and 19 were all new. Tachinski was 82. He is also not black, so couldn't be 19.

Tait mentioned this morning that they brought in a few WR's (Blaszko for one) to potentially round out the PR. Hopefully they can keep digging and turn over a diamond in the rough. I would much rather they use the PR for players like that as opposed to bringing in a retread.

well maybe some people just don't see skin colour?

I thought I read that the Als released Devon Bailey but I can't find mention of that anywhere on the Als site.

I'd rather they hold on to one of the young receivers that they ran through T.C. (ie. Williams) rather than bringing in a new name and starting from scratch.

Yes, It's listed on the CFL transactions page that Montreal released Bailey. He fits the profile, but his number was 81...

Could #19 be the return of Aaron Kelly? ...- not serious

It depends on what they saw from them in camp, if they know that the guy isn't going to work out (or even accept a PR spot) then might as well move on.

Completely agree... I remember watching that throw thinking there's no way he'll catch up to it...

Thorpe And menard-briere cut but Thorpe is sticking around to rehab...as per bauming 

And here are the names, as #Bombers announce PR additions in three WRs; Brett Blaszko, and Internationals RJ Harris and Gary Chambers.

-bauming

Harris was with the Argos and Chambers comes from the Ticats

Man can we ever not scout receivers. Even Washington was not a find of ours.

What is it with this group of scouts?

Glad Thorpe is sticking around.

Thorpe most likely a paper move will be on injured list next week.
