Mike Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Things of note ... -- Goltz and Boltus only QB's practicing today -- Watson is practicing in full equipment -- Andre Douglas taking 1st team RT reps Woo. Floyd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Dee Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Can't tell you how long I waited to hear Douglas at RT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted August 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 I'm thinking if Watson goes, we very well could see 3 NI receivers this week and I wonder if they'd consider the idea of Bo Smith starting at safety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noeller Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 At this point, I'm a really big fan of new faces all over. Just try **** you think will work, and see if it sticks. I'm not sure there's anyone that deserves the veteran loyalty points. Nobody's performed well enough to be untouchable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voodoochylde Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 I'm thinking if Watson goes, we very well could see 3 NI receivers this week and I wonder if they'd consider the idea of Bo Smith starting at safety. Based on Cauchy's play .. I'd be all for this .. Glad to see Douglas is back .. going to be a bit before he is in game shape but he can only be an upgrade over Boatman at this point.

OldSchoolBlue Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Having an import safety would be an instant, enormous upgrade. But 3 NI receivers on an already weak offense is a stretch - but I'd try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noeller Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 and the whole "Imports are always better than Non-Imports" method of thinking is so outdated... voodoochylde 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17to85 Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Kohlert and Etienne have made as many plays as guys like Doug PIerce or Clarence Denmark have this year and Watson next to Edwards is probably the best receiver on the team anyway so I see no problems using 3 NI receivers. johnzo and Noeller 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Dee Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 But 3 NI receivers on an already weak offense is a stretch - but I'd try it. Not really, with 'Brody McKnight-in-shining-armour' kicking 55 yard FGs in practice, we only have to get to the Sask 48 yd. line.

Atomic Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 I'm annoyed that with our lack of Canadian defensive back depth we didn't get Ryan Hinds. He didn't pan out as a starting corner for Hamilton but guaranteed he would be better depth than Dan West at safety and would have pushed Cauchy as well. DR.

Mr Dee Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Not sure about Hinds being worth the look see, seeing as he's failed a few times already, but in Hind sight.....it's still a bad idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can't afford to be picky, especially when we're an injury away from starting Dan West and our starter isn't any good anyway. And I don't see how he has "failed a few times already", when he's only ever been with one team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Dee Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Hinds reminds me of someone who should be backing up in the defensive backfield...not starting, but anyways....

TrueBlue Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 So depth at QB likely....Goltz, Boltus, Hall. Let' see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valderan_CA Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 So depth at QB likely....Goltz, Boltus, Hall. Let' see what happens.

Captain Blue Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Watching live here... Goltz taking all first team reps since we only have the two QBs dressed. He looks okay. Hopefully they go with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuranBoldenRules Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 I'm annoyed that with our lack of Canadian defensive back depth we didn't get Ryan Hinds. He didn't pan out as a starting corner for Hamilton but guaranteed he would be better depth than Dan West at safety and would have pushed Cauchy as well. Why is that guaranteed? Hinds couldn't even stick as a special teamer and depth in Hamilton and lost his job to an Ontario junior player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Dan West has no idea how to take an angle and it makes him useless as a safety DR. CFL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
