Jpan85 Posted May 23, 2023 Report Share Posted May 23, 2023 Interesting who they take to Edmonton on Saturday, I would imagine that Collaros, Olivera (has not practiced yet) Lawler, Schoen, Demski, Bryant, Nuefeld and Hardrick don't make the trip on offense. Willie, Jeffcoat, Thomas, Bighill, Darby, Nichols, Alexander, Rose don't make the trip on D. coach17 and rebusrankin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted May 23, 2023 Report Share Posted May 23, 2023 (edited) Which rookie is gonna have the biggest impact in our push for another Grey Cup? I expect great things from Bennett, think he will be a beast. But of even more importance and a player I am keeping an eye on is Jeremy Murphy. Have said for a time now we needed another weapon on the offensive side of the ball, and I think this kid can provide that. Maybe not totally at first,but down the road for sure.

WinnipegGordo Posted May 23, 2023 Report Share Posted May 23, 2023 I noticed yesterday that 19 year old receiver Tyrell was working with the trainer on the field. He's getting closer to actually practice. Also think this is the first training camp I've seen where all the olinmen have participated. No injuries and no vet days at the practices I've been to. rebusrankin, Tracker, Noeller and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noeller Posted May 23, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2023 (edited) Who exactly is Jeremy Murphy going to unseat on this offense, barring injury (knocks on wood).....??? BOO is still well ahead of him as well. Murphy should be damn happy to be on the PR and learn for awhile. And in an offense that has the best QB in the league, the 2 best receivers in the league, the best OL in the league..... And a more than competent RB...... We need a weapon???

I didn't say he was going to start over anyone, and yes I understand we are set up well on offense, but never hurts to have another guy to give the defense someone else to keen in on. I think the kid can be good in this league, but if he is a bust, as ya'll say we will be fine. JCon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On paper, i can't remember a team that had as many offensive weapons as the Bombers do right now. It's grossly unfair, TBH....

These aren't "practices". It's close. But it's training camp. The two are different.

Booch Posted May 24, 2023 Report Share Posted May 24, 2023 I think his not "participating" is a big nothing burger...he in shape....got diddly to prove, and still does stuff outside actual "practice" sessions Bigblue204, Piggy 1, Noeller and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it's nothing that keeps him from missing games, but something is keeping him off the field now. Guys with injury histories like Jeffcoat were practicing, old guys like Bryant are practicing. Only injured players haven't participated. Especially when Wilson has also been out, and you would think they'd want to see how Bighill played with the replacement candidates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebusrankin Posted May 24, 2023 Report Share Posted May 24, 2023 It is clear that everybody for the Blue Bombers are hurt and the media is covering up and helping the team out by saying players are practicing.
