BC at Edmonton

3 Areas To Watch

Number 2 Pivot: Who Steps Up?

BC - Ricky Lloyd and first-year Leos Austin Apodaca and Cole Sears will handle the quarterback reps in hopes of getting a leg up on sticking behind Reilly on the depth chart. 

Edmonton- Danny O’Brian, Logan Kilgore, Briscoe.

- One big observation in the first week of camp is the depth at receiver. Standouts at the position have included Joey Augustin, Marquis Bundy and Mexican additions Fernando Richarte and Gerardo Alvarez. All CFL clubs are required to keep one global player on their roster beyond training camp.

- Defensive Line: Calling On Another Bookend

With Odell Willis having another strong showing in camp, the big question remains who will line up as the other bookend.

- Linebacker Adam Konar gets to battle some of his own teammates after he was cut loose and quickly picked up by the Lions on day one of camp. He’ll start at MLB

Loffler with torn ACL... that really sucks - he was playing great

Probably career ending

He got a "load management" (kinda) treatment when he was here. I believe he didn't get that privilege in Mtl.

Thats true it should. But for it to come out like that after and when the RBs werent doing poorly over all it kind of speaks for it self imo. 

Considering that it came out just before the RedBlacks played the Eskimos I question the motives of Pruneau who to me was being a jerk. Harris never responded & good for him that he didn't. For all we know it was Pruneau who was the so called cancer. I just think it was sour grapes.

I'd be bitter too if Dominic Davis & Jonathan Jennings were my qbs.

That would have looked great in 2013 when we had Goltz, A broken Buck, Max Hall and Jason Boltus

Sadly Rick Campbell might end up being the fall guy for their inability to resign Harris.

That would be major-league dumb.

That's too bad. Wish him luck in recovery.

They have lots of issues with or without Harris.  Campbell loses games with poor game management.

Sounds familiar .....but they get paid to make those decisions.....hindsight versus being under the gun.

How so? He played every snap while here in WPG. For the most part anyways.

Practices. He took a ton off.

oh ok. yeah that makes sense.

Curious thing is it was reported he may have been out earlier with a torn ACL.....likely a partial tear became a complete tear.

The difference is his poor game management got him a Grey Cup championship.......we are still patiently waiting.

Lapo might find a HC vacancy next year and it might be a replacement for Campbell's job. 

If Rick Campbell is fired then he'll be scooped up in a heart beat.   The guy can coach.

Yup. the Lions, Argos and probably the Riders would have to be interested.

I wonder if Lapo learned his lesson....don’t jump at an HC job if you haven’t got a viable QB....your ego can bite you in the ass.

If we win a play off game I can easily see him being a hot commodity.

We win or not.. he will be a hot commodity. There's only a small pool of HC prospects.

There's a lot of FA QB after this season though... including Nichols and Streveler. It's a perfect opportunity if you ask me.

Nichols is signed thru next year actually...

He was allowed to skip a ton of practices. That's usually reserved for vets. But, given his medical history, they (coaching staff) allowed him to miss a lot of practice despite being a fairly young player. It was assumed that it was to preserve his health.

Anybody else not like Leblanc and think this is going to end up not happening?

Yup
