Mark H. Posted April 14 Report Share Posted April 14 Pork butts can refer to pieces that butchers set aside and sell as low grade meat. But, on an actual pig, the butt is one of the finest pork chops. kelownabomberfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just remember going to Safeway and buying pork butt steak at around $3.50 for like two or three meals, grilled up. Don't succumb to the pork snobs. A nicely grilled pork butt can be a great meal. wbbfan and kelownabomberfan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted April 15 Report Share Posted April 15 For whatever reason, I feel like I’d really lost sight of how many interesting prospects the Bombers brought in this off-season. Not too worried about the massive amounts of WR or DB, that’ll sort itself out with reps but I do appreciate some of these names … real high calibre guys being brought up here. 5 names to watch in my obviously incredibly educated opinion: WR KJ Hill, DE John Waggoner, DT Jamal Woods, DB Travon Fuller, DB Juan Lua Bonus name, I think it’s a foregone conclusion he’s QB3: Eric Barriere Bonus name if Janarion Grant doesn’t come back: WR Aron Cruickshank wbbfan, rebusrankin, JCon and 4 others 1 2 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a decent QB at a fairly high level (ACC). Started for Oregon as a freshman so just on raw talent there's something there. He just converted to receiver with Rams last year. Kind of wondering if they are looking at him in both spots....or even just QB. He must really have NFL dreams to come up here as a receiver because I have no doubt he could play QB in the UFL based on some of the guys playing there.

Based solely on highlights my 5 rookie americans I'm excited to see in camp are WR Aron Cruikshank, OT Larnel Coleman, DE Chauncey Rivers, LB Jeremiah Gemmel and DB Terrell Bonds Specific but different reasons. KJ Hill has a very very similar profile to Austin Mack which is an exciting thought. As far as Waggoner, any Iowa defender is going to pique my interest plus all the academic and coaches selection awards in college give him a big “O’Shea guy” type feel. Fuller I followed on the Bills roster a bit and he’s a long rangy shutdown corner type, could be a productive guy up here if he picks up the nuances well enough. Lua is SUPER young (22) and didn’t even go through the NFL draft process, but he’s a versatile defender that could play a lot of different roles on our D. Finally, Woods is a guy they’ve had neg-listed for quite some time - couple that with them usually having a good eye for the DT types they like and I’m interested to see him in camp. bigg jay, wbbfan, Noeller and 2 others 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
