More likely means mccrae is on the field for almost every snap. We need to keep the number of Canadian starters constant on offence. The ONLY solution I see is at either S.B or FB. Do you see otherwise? Bigblue204 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booch Posted July 14, 2022 Report Share Posted July 14, 2022 Right now with BA still out we don't need 2 national recievers...we can roll with 3 olineman..eh and Woli...Jake/Lawson and Thompson at safety...by the time BA is back Demski will be as well...so we go back to what we were doing...and we are just fine. Not sure of the extent or what BOLO injury was but he seemed fine on the sidelines...but I'd like to see us pluck a reciever from someone's PR tho...nice story picking up a local kid but if he has to come in for significant reps..well that's pretty much a wasted spot in the offence...dude will not be producing at be the pro level Worst case scenario in game if Woli goes down then BO and JA are in backfield together...in various ways and that in itself could be interesting and successful too Piggy 1, Bigblue204 and wbbfan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offense is getting pretty thin on game day, can’t really lose anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t believe he had any eligibility left. We cut him and sent him to school the previous year. Pretty sure he’s out of football rn. looking at prs around the league Keaton bruggeling the rbs second round pick is on the pr. Which would be greasy. But I’d be ok with no love for the rbs. petermann is listed on the ar for the lions. Otherwise the pr ni wrs are real slim Pickens. JCon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of injuries and almost 29. Don’t think the upside is huge he’s a play now guy. See if he starts to get some reps with BC at receiver. Turned the ball over a bunch last year the more opportunity he got. Noeller and JCon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a bruiser who can run a 4.5 40, I would take a look at him if they truly believe we’re going to stick with a Canadian at that position. bb1 and Mark F 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that entirely depends on how gmc progresses. He’s really dangerous and if he keeps getting better when demski is healthy I could possibly see a change.

Bigblue204 Posted July 14, 2022 Report Share Posted July 14, 2022 keep in mind. IF any players are plucked off PR's. They are required to start. Quite frankly the Bombers have absolutely zero need for this. Mark F 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think he’d be a good pickup if he wants to keep playing. We are extremely thin on O.

bearpants Posted July 14, 2022 Report Share Posted July 14, 2022 I don't think the Bombers will go PR plucking... it's not how they do business... if there is someone they have legitimate interest in, they would more likely reach out to that team to propose a trade.

He was suppose to be the guy in Hamilton, he started out the season in Hamilton as the number one tail back in 2019, but I believe he fell out of favour half way through.

Yeah they don’t really run the ball as anything but deception. Lots of jet sweeps. They like a back that’s basically a receiver and a couple receivers that are capable runners. He probably would fit better here assuming he can play some role on special teams if he’s getting on as a 2nd or 3rd tailback and that he can block reasonably well.

Yeah I specifically remember there being talk about Irons being the guy in Hamilton and that they wanted to implement a Canadian back field like Winnipeg, but he’s your traditional running back, not much of a receiving threat so I just don’t think he fit in with Hamilton’s philosophy and play style.
