Stickem Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Guess we're going to find out if he has any game left. Signed today by the Bombers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan007 Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Kirk Penton @PentonKirk 40m We said they were talking over the weekend, and now the #Bombers and safety Donovan Alexander have agreed on a contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracker Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Good signing for training camp if nothing else. I just hope Alexander still has a year or two in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Sucks Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Good signing for training camp if nothing else. I just hope Alexander still has a year or two in him. I don't see why he wouldn't have multiple years left. He's only 28 you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see why he wouldn't have multiple years left. He's only 28 you know. Hmmm... he's been around so long, I assumed he was at or past 30. Typically, most athletes physically peak at ages 26-29, so if his head is still in the game, he ought to fit in well here. Don't remember him as a solid tackler, though.

gbill2004 Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 We now have 7 NI Safety's on the roster. Possible trade coming? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR. CFL Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Maybe they'll cut Cauchy before he can come to camp and get hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBlink Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 We'll probably be playing an NI safety AND wide side corner in some packages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's either a trade coming or the plan is to start 2 NI DBs, which I suggested might happen in a previous thread and got laughed at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's either a trade coming or the plan is to start 2 NI DBs, which I suggested might happen in a previous thread and got laughed at. ... It could be (and probably is) neither of those things. Newman, West, Bucknor, Muamba, Alexander and Sherman boils down to 6 guys under contract. I'm assuming you're counting Robertson as well. You could easily play 1 Canadian safety, 1 Canadian nickel (which is what my best guess is) and a backup on the 42. Practice roster another one, maybe two and there you go. Maybe they attempt to trade one, I'm sure they'd exhaust all those options before cutting a guy outright but there's no way I can see us starting 2 Canadians in the secondary when we have the import talent that we have there.

Mike Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 I'm well aware. That was also 4-5 years ago. And he wasn't much beyond average at it then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
road griller Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Good signing, we need NI's. Can't believe all this action in Feb, what a change from the last few seasons. The Cup is ours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuranBoldenRules Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Banks, Randle, Washington, Sears, Suber, Markett, Dunn. Starting 2 NI DB's means 3 of these guys aren't playing defense. Can't see it happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Alexander has some speed to burn, he looked decent his first year in Edmonton, though not so much last year. Competition is great and all, but IMO he's just a faster version of Cauchy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.O.A.B. Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 I'll reserve my judgement on him. I'll wait until TC to see if he's good among our S candidates. Maybe a change of scenery will up his game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
