GCn20 Posted August 2, 2022 Report Share Posted August 2, 2022 Just now, JuranBoldenRules said: My guess would be Hardrick would flip to LT and Lofton would come in at RT. If it was mid-game, Hardrick would flip to LT, Gray to RT and Dobson in at guard. Yea...that's a strong possibility for sure. Unless Nelson, or Witt are flying under the radar or Richmond comes off the 6 game that is the most likely scenario. Although, they may just insert Lofton at LT and keep Yoshi where he is to create minimal disruption. Jesse and rebusrankin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the TICats- It's easy to see why it still feels like they are a better team than their record - Bad teams aren't competing for the league lead in fewest penalties/penalty yards per game.

Booch Posted August 2, 2022 Report Share Posted August 2, 2022 Richmond will prob get every opp to win the LT spot when big Stan hangs em up....Hardrick gonna stay put...That being said we may have another guy we looking at as well who isn't in system yet, and trying his luck down south....or, like others said...when time comes we dip in free agency and go after the best LT available Geebrr, Noeller and rebusrankin 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if we would look at signing Mike Jones as a backup who was released by the Elks. why was Jones released? Because he wouldn't play on the OL? 2 hours ago, Brandon said: I think the Wally Buono dumps players before they drop off angle is far over used and over exaggerated here. I think Wally Buono being able to recruit HOF QBs was a much larger factor in his success then his ability to cut a player. yeah Wally really called the drop off of Harris' career all right...lol...

It looks like Lofton has been kicking around the CFL since 2017 between the RB's and the Elks but he's only played in a handful of games and has never been a starter.

You could have said the same thing about Yoshi before he came here - Stints in BC and SSK where he didn't show enough to keep a spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yah, I wasn't disparaging Lofton, I was just pointing out his history. If they brought him in, maybe they liked what they saw or maybe he's just a convenient gap filler on the PR who has no future.

Yep, Wally liked to rotate his RB's, Harris had to share reps. with Stefan Logan for a few years. I think one part of the agreement in coming to Wpg. was A.H. got a say in how much he played, and he wanted to play every down. Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harris was offered a contract, But Wally B wanted to pay him more as a role type player, and not as a RB1 type guy...and AH disagreed with the assesment, and coming home to WPG where he would be the guy was a no brainer slam dunk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuranBoldenRules Posted August 2, 2022 Report Share Posted August 2, 2022 One spot where Harris got jobbed in his career was TD's. How many times has he got the ball to the 1-2 yard line then in this era they bring in the QB to run the wedge play rather than let him finish it off? He might be challenging Stegall if he got those plays. He's got 83, could have another 40 easy. Bigblue204 and Geebrr 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stickem Posted August 2, 2022 Report Share Posted August 2, 2022 Harris still has gas in the tank....mind you it's a little diluted to due to age but he can still bull rush the middle....I think T.O. is making an error in not using his pass catching ability more often....He still has real good hands and if he gets into open territory ...look out.....I'm sure Andrew misses the quality of O Line he had here BUT he still shows flashes even with the inferior argo big men up front.....We won't miss his game once Brady O's game matures a bit more.....hell we don't miss Harris as much as I thought we would right now Bigblue204 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, we got him off the scrap heap but that is how we got Hardrick too. End of the day, Lofton is probably better than anyone the Riders are rolling out at OT. 2 hours ago, Fatty Liver said: Yah, I wasn't disparaging Lofton, I was just pointing out his history. If they brought him in, maybe they liked what they saw or maybe he's just a convenient gap filler on the PR who has no future. He's a journeyman emergency replacement until Richmond or one of the other rookies get their feet wet a bit. There is a big shortage of quality OTs, so this is about as good as it gets.

JuranBoldenRules Posted August 2, 2022 Report Share Posted August 2, 2022 Not really sure what the guy thinks he has to gain from tweeting. His own fans probably think he's a joke along with everyone else. You've got Maciocia on the sideline and Harris in the huddle...inspired.
