I'd like to see Pigrome get the 3rd QB spot....with his elusive running, and good arm....could be a real weapon to have now we can have 2 qb's on field together...a lil swing pass back to him where he has option to run, or pass if defenders fall off their receivers could cause big issues....they will have to respect his running ability, so if they cheat...could get burned wbbfan, Noeller, Tracker and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially with that rb build, he could be excellent in short yardage. 1 hour ago, Jpan85 said: Was no preseason games in 2021, would be the first ever preseason game with Bombers for Collaros. I must’ve just been thinking of the first couple of regular season games that were kind of pre season quality then. the lber core sure doesn’t look good in this game. Hope Barrett looks incredible. Really look forward to seeing what the imp rbs do namely Barnes and Mccrae this system and ol will really give them a chance to shine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigblue204 Posted May 26, 2023 Report Share Posted May 26, 2023 Yeah, i'll be surprised if Collaros plays at all. I'll be down right flabbergasted if he plays more than a series or two. TBURGESS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wbbfan Posted May 28, 2023 Report Share Posted May 28, 2023 Over all think the first pre season game was what we needed. I think it’s a great call to get the vets lots of early action and give them most of the second game off so they can be healthy. The biggest obstacles to the bombers being good early are going to be health and rust. Work too much of the rust off and you put health at risk. It’s a tough spot with low contact practice these days. Early weeks of the regular season are gonna be lower quality if they stick to no tackle practice. If Jeffcoat is healthy Thomas starting as our nose with walker rotating will improve a lot of our pass rush and run stop. Having biggie back will be huge too. Barrington is going to be a pretty big upgrade over Clements though not kyrie atleast yet. Lots of good dbs, some good players are gonna be cut. Wr core is super deep too. Nice to have a new back up ni to bolo. richmond looks as good as ever at T for depth. Dobson needs a lot of work at C still with snaps but if Eli gets healthy it isn’t a big issue. And we identified a new short yardage option qb. We even found great depth at kicker and punter. look forward to seeing round 2 of the db and wr battle next week, and more from pigrome.

Stickem Posted May 28, 2023 Report Share Posted May 28, 2023 Zack stayed in that preseason a little longer than I thought BUT maybe he needed that to get the rust off....didn't take him long......It;s going to be tough on cut down day.....some real nice talent will be exiting....

Noeller Posted May 28, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2023 Tweets still won't embed but from DB97 today: "Thoughts after seeing the WBB starters for 1.5 quarters: If they can afford it, the team could use a Shawn Lemon—or another difference maker off the edge—and a disruptive force at DT. Jeffcoat didn’t play, but they need at least 3 viable edge rushers & help stopping the run. As Willie J enters his golden years, he needs to be put on a pitch count. To be most effective, he can’t be playing 60 snaps a game. " wbbfan, Bigblue204 and rebusrankin 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuranBoldenRules Posted May 28, 2023 Report Share Posted May 28, 2023 I'd like to see Maruo used as a rusher while Hansen works his way back. He's got a lot of will but isn't a strong player in the open field/coverage. Set him up with a role that relies mostly on effort and he'll be ok.

wbbfan Posted May 28, 2023 Report Share Posted May 28, 2023 Also re snaps with Dobson, Texas state ran multi back forms mostly under centre. Think he played two games at c with them, but likely hasn’t snapped to the shot gun a lot at any level. That said the snap to pistol/gun is some thing any one who isn’t a primary centre struggles with. But it is very teachable. And Costello is a great ol coach.

Bigblue204 Posted May 29, 2023 Report Share Posted May 29, 2023 Completely agree with Brown. Lemon would do well here. I'm assuming he got some kind of signing bonus from bc...but maybe not considering how they cut him. Don't get me wrong, I liked what I saw from Murphy. But I'm not sure he makes the team. Simply based on #'s. We don't NEED a other NI wr, or another WR in general. Maaaaybe PR. But nothing outside of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booch Posted May 29, 2023 Report Share Posted May 29, 2023 Yeah any true national receiver will be hard pressed to get anything more than a PR spot this year...BOLO is the main backup to the 2 starters...and prob see's more reps in general above just a strict back-up role And the fact that we can now also use Bailey as a Nationalized Canuck for 49% of snaps gives us the flexibility to not have to roster an additional National receiver...mind you I don't think we did anyway last year Bigblue204 and Piggy 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebusrankin Posted May 29, 2023 Report Share Posted May 29, 2023 I really think we need an american to rotate in with Jeffcoat and Jefferson. Wondering how we make that work with our DI situation. Same with bringing in a guy like Lemon as a nationalized Canadian. Bigblue204 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOLO started on the PR in 2021 before being activated when Demski got hurt so I don't see why Murphy would be any different. Stick him on the PR for now, let him develop a bit and have him ready in case someone goes down. Bubba Zanetti 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jpan85 Posted May 29, 2023 Report Share Posted May 29, 2023 He will be on the game-day roster especially if they go with the K, KR, DL LB or DB as DI. He would be the backup receiver. rebusrankin and wbbfan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
