Moving forward I believe the target is for Wolitarsky to play inside fulltime and potentially start him, Demski and Petermann, keeping in mind Harris turns 33 this season and will probably miss a few games for maintenance. There will be 2 import playmaker/returner types on the roster, one DI and one "starter" for ratio purposes but really a free backup. Grant is probably the DI, Whitehead, Nelson and other training camp signings will be in play for the second spot. Probably keep moving forward with 6 locked in NI's on O and 1 locked in on D. So in terms of JFG you swap him onto the roster for a guy like John Rush. 99% of his role will be special teams and there's the odd time he'd be used on O as the third slot to come in the box and block a blitzer or as injury replacement. I firmly believe the Bombers #1 target in free agency (aside from our own guys) is a difference making boundary WR, Derel Walker. I think Rhymes or Posey would be the consolation prize and if they get none of the three they might go back to Darvin Adams. Starters would be: Big free agent signing, Lawler, Wolitarsky, Demski, Petermann Whitehead/Nelson/guy who makes the team and Janarion Grant plus JFG and maybe another depth NI guy who can play teams well.

I'd be absolutely blown away if they start 3 Cnd receivers and let Bailey sit on the sidelines. In fact I'd be willing to bet money that it absolutely doesn't happen. (Outside of injuries).

Colin Unger Posted February 5, 2020 Report Share Posted February 5, 2020 Maybe they are looking at adding TJ Jones as a starter and will need JFG as added depth with 3 Canadian starters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GCn20 Posted February 5, 2020 Report Share Posted February 5, 2020 For sure. The only criticism i have of Lapo's scheme is when he went ultra conservative too early or didnt open up the playbook early enough when were down. Other than that it was smart football. Too many people judge an offence by their adrenaline response instead of the actual results. MC and Bigblue204 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the contrary, I think the only time Lapo opened up the playbook was when we were down....that's when he actually got creative. God help us anytime we had a lead, tho....

J5V Posted February 5, 2020 Report Share Posted February 5, 2020 7 hours ago, GCn20 said: Have you taken a look at Collaros's passing chart? Get used to the short dump offs they are not going anywhere. Something like 85% of ZC's throws with us last year were within 5 yards of the LOS. He just took a couple more shots down the field per game than Nichols, and had more success doing so. Yeah, they play the exact same way. There won't be any difference.

I no longer hold hope that we sign so and so premier pass catcher in FA. If we get one ill be surprised and cautiously optimistic. If we go into the year with lawler, darvin and bailey plus the NIs its still a really good wr core. A good vet with some questions like tasker to push that core would be great. Willy is priority no1 imo if he isnt nfl bound. And keeping money available for nfl guys is important too. Geebrr and Bigblue204 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd be in the mix to win a job, but don't think his name is on the roster in ink. Only imports in that spot right now on O are the OT's, Lawler and Grant (as kick returner).

Arnold_Palmer Posted February 5, 2020 Report Share Posted February 5, 2020 JFG is just depth. Probably won’t be playing much on offense but you know If he does get a few snaps he’ll catch the football. Good team guy, plus ST, and is familiar with the system.

No way Petermann could have been happy with his playing time or role with the team. He kept showing he was capable of being a starter but not in LaPo's offense. Now that Lapo's gone I hope Petermann stays. Like Woli, he was wasted in his offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bearpants Posted February 6, 2020 Report Share Posted February 6, 2020 Some people are really over thinking this Feoli-Guidino signing... he likely came cheap, will play special teams, provide leadership, and emergency depth in case of injury... or maybe not even make the team... really a low risk signing...
