rebusrankin Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 Yeah, as much as I'd hate to have a "wasted" first rounder, I'd rather not lose Peterman etc as JBR stated. Heck the injury scare with Demski today illustrates a point I was trying to make with friends that we need 4 NI WRs on the AR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17to85 Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 I'd we do cut Faith I have no doubts the riders will grab him asap. That team is pretty desperate for canadians. wbbfan, Fred C Dobbs and rebusrankin 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.O.A.B. Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 Why not trade if they have no plans on him. Cutting him outright is poor management. rebusrankin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why trade for a player who seems likely to get cut? That's poor management. Albertabomberguy, JCon and MOBomberFan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont doubt some team would give up some thing for him. Though not much. More then any one else he needs a monster performance in bc. Id like to see him start and give him a full quarter. Give him every chance to shine and do some thing. 1 hour ago, rebusrankin said: Yeah, as much as I'd hate to have a "wasted" first rounder, I'd rather not lose Peterman etc as JBR stated. Heck the injury scare with Demski today illustrates a point I was trying to make with friends that we need 4 NI WRs on the AR. Ir and 2 man in active list we dont have to activate 4 ni wrs. But petermann and demski can play teams right away. Simonise has had some return experience. I cant see using a DI on a return man and carrying 4 ni wrs though. I also dont see all 4 staying healthy all year. Simonise hasnt played a lot of football in the last few years. Demski hasnt been able to stay healthy. Just the jump from cis schedule to cfl with tc and pre season is gonna be hard for ptermann, especially playing teams and wr. No doubt we have to keep all 4 protected.

So I'm not sure where Faith fits in either, unless they plan to dress 8 DL. Maybe he goes to the PR to start learning to play guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im just saying we will not “lose” him (IF he dont make the team) as Walters can neg list just like what he did in previous years picks that got sent vack to school. But I believe Petermann will make the team this year. 12 hours ago, rebusrankin said: Yeah, as much as I'd hate to have a "wasted" first rounder, I'd rather not lose Peterman etc as JBR stated.

Booch Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 to get game reps...and actually play... We could conceivably have Demski and Simonese or Woli starting with the other as a back-up as well as possibly Augustint/Lafrance/Pierre all on roster as Canadian depth..If push came to shove you could always push Harris out to a receiever role if one of starters get hrt and have Augustine or Lafrance in backfield as an in game adjustment. Also I really liked what i seen of Pierre...has nice hands..strong and fast and would play a similar role as what Watson did...and Pierre too would excell on ST's shadybob, Bigblue204, M.O.A.B. and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fatty Liver Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 A few extra Augustine highlights on the CJOB site. https://globalnews.ca/news/4255302/winnipeg-blue-bombers-augustine-not-fazed-by-clubs-depth-at-running-back/ Good Blue Bomber podcast from Doug Brown, towards the end of the show he discusses the missing depth chart issue and explains some of the potential reasoning for not providing one, which might be related to the rash of retirements we've seen this year. https://omny.fm/shows/the-winnipeg-blue-bombers-podcast/blue-bomber-podcast-with-doug-brown-06-05-2018?in_playlist=the-winnipeg-blue-bombers-podcast!podcast Mark F 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booch Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 I have said all along I have liked this signing...He is a complete back and can do all 3 major things required...and he runs hard...not sure what's not to like about him. To be honest having him as a depth guy/ST player who can come in and contribute on offence makes more sense than a John Rush really Mark F, Bigblue204 and shadybob 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably privately carrying a large chip on shoulder that'll help him keep motivated. Edited June 6, 2018 by Mark F Fatty Liver 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigblue204 Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 When he bounced off that LB who hit the line running downhill, that really impressed me. I don't know who the LB was, but he smacked him hard enough to knock most RB over for sure. I couldn't believe he stayed on his feet. I'm surprised he's here to be honest. Seems like a guy who could contribute on some team. Glad he made the right choice to sign here though!! Mark F 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big time podcasts like ESPN Lebatard and Kornheiser either cut all music or run donated music. If you hear famous musician on a podcast it is a rarity or you be consorting with pirates.

Apparently so, I haven't read any negative reports on his pass-catching and he looked like a viable receiver at the 2017 Combine when he participated in those drills.
