holoman Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 I really like what Walters has done during the off season. Improvements at every position (QB a ???, I know), but I don't like the look of our receiving group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Lots of weird stuff going on in that depth chart. Import at right guard with an NI at right tackle, Desia Dunn starting at WILL, Ryan Lucas starting at DT... obviously very preliminary but maybe gives a look at management's mindset heading into camp in regards to how they want to construct the roster.

M.O.A.B. Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Garvin is moved to DB on roster not showing on the depth chart tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Sears at safety, Canadian at field CB. Good call guys... can't remember the exact names that thought of that. Absolutely hate Newman and Wild at MAC, But like the idea of Dunn at WILL. Really hoping Mathias shows enough to shift Morely back to RB so we only need one canuck on defence!

Even if the ratio doesn't allow Anderson to start initially, I'm sure they will find a way to keep him around. He is way too talented to just throw away.

Mike Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Anderson needs to be on the field as much as possible and they better not try and tell me he doesn't fit Etcheverry's idea of a DT because he's historically exactly what Etch has looked for. That being said, I'm sure he will be. A day one depth chart means nothing lol Atomic and James 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Overall I live the depth chart, only changes I'd make is putting Pencer at RG, let Everett develop behind Greaves. Still not crazy about the idea of having Morley and Kowalczuk on the roster, but I digress. I'd also like to see Briggs and Newman have a shot at WILL, as well as seeing Thomas and Lucas fighting for one spot. Things can and will easily change, so no point in looking too deep into anything just yet. I'm actually really excited for camp this season, significantly more so than last year and like the roster so far that Walters has built. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Keep in mind a depth chart at this point is also probably just a rep plan. That's why you see things like Thomas and Lucas split even though they're obviously in competition with eachother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M.O.A.B. Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Dunn @ WILL is like a death bed. If he doesn't show anything there, that's all she wrote. No way he going to steal SAM/Nickel position from Banks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Doesn't look like size is going to be our thing on defense. Im not really liking it that much either. I was hoping that Tate would be WILL and rotate in at End. Hopefully Nzegwu is as good as I think he's going to be and it Forces Tate back into LBing/coverage type of role. I just don't think Tate is dimensional enough off the edge. Theres no way he's going to be able to bull rush any of the OT's... He will probably struggle trying to get the OT's hands off him IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Doesn't look like size is going to be our thing on defense. That's probably what worries me most. I think back to our games against Calgary last year and it really didn't matter how fast or in-position our players were, they were getting steamrolled by the big boys on the Calgary offence... couldn't make a tackle to save their lives.

Goalie Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 what does the depth chart really mean at this point in time when they havent even taken the field, half those guys will be cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 what does the depth chart really mean at this point in time when they havent even taken the field, half those guys will be cut. I think it gives some hints. For example, it's not an accident that a guy like Desia Dunn is listed as the starter at WILL. To me, that says we are looking to use that position more like the SAM is traditionally used, as a DB/LB hybrid. I believe that it also shows a lack of confidence in our interior OL when they have an American penciled in at right guard, even though we have guys like Pencer, Swiston, and Kowalczuk who have already been around for awhile. Like you say, a depth chart on day one doesn't mean much. But you are fooling yourself if you don't believe the coaches have already sat down and contemplated which position each player on the roster fits into best, and as such has slotted them in there on the depth chart. These things can and will change, but it is a starting point. If nothing else, it provides some great talking points for an obviously football-starved fanbase.

Goalie Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Hmm, just noticed but where is pontbriand and fitzgerald? were they quietly released? cuz i dont see either of them listed on that depth chart. Odd because they are both still listed on the official team roster http://bluebombers.com/roster/index/team/5 yet nowhere to be found on the depth chart that was posted.

Cool - let's go with four imports on the OL and four NI DB's. Sounds like a recipe for success! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
