Especially since Bailey demonstrated that he can contribute to special teams.

Yup. Flashing a hit on kick cover doesn’t always mean you have a good cover guy or a good fit here. But, he almost blocked a punt with his physicality and motor, and most importantly imo, the play where he charged down field and pancakes his blocker was soo much more. 

 That’s the type of selfless play that goes a long way both here and in general. Hes got the athleticism, physicality, motor, and drive to succeed any time you put him on. Which as a dl is soo much more value in the cfl. 

Hes a really polished pass rusher with tremendous tools and just gets it. 

Teams players at lber are default because they are big enough to beat out half the skill position players physically and still fast enough to get down field. The under sized db types offer a lot less unless they can actually cover wrs. Linemen who can run fast enough to cover kicks are gold.

Receiver AK Gassama was added to the Bombers' practice roster today.

Montreal transferred OL Jesse Gibbon to the injured list and actived OL Landon Rice.

Hopefully hassan’s isn’t a sign of injury concerns.

During the Coach's Show, O'Shea said they were short bodies for practice and that they didn't want to overwork the guys that were healthy.

As is his MO, he didn't provide any info on Demski's status.

I don't suppose there was any info to be gained about those new DEs possibly making the playoff roster?

[Pete]

I cant see Demski being ready for this game. Or else it will be the same result as the grey cup ly where our key receivers didnt last the half.

[Goalie]

I could see Demski playing and making a difference. I actually expect a big TD from him.
