Colin Unger

Hopefully, the cap space gets used by Geoff Gray in a few weeks.

An 8th round pick is tantamount to having been released.

His was in a role that required making the catches available to you in a low volume position. Somebody like Petermann could likely do a better job in that role as a Canadian.

Honestly we'd be just as good if not better if we starting another Canadian receiver. Perhaps the team looks at starting Simonise and adding Flanders to there roster once he's healthy.

Not sure how much the money matters at this point. He was getting paid 140k for the season and likely received a significant chunk of that in bonuses. I’d like to see the team give him 5 or 6 targets to see if we can’t get him going. He does seem to be getting open.

It’s just that nothing else has changed and the offensive line appears to be more dominant than past year and Bond couldn’t open up a hole for CJ if his life depended on it. This after getting cut from a weak offensive line in Regina.

I’m curious if there are still people out there who think that Pat Neufeld is s major downgrade from Travis Bond? I share people’s concern over potential injury problems for Patty but I’m not convinced he isn’t an upgrade over Bond when healthy.

I said that before I relealised that Gale had been moved to the practice roster. At this point nothing would surprise me. He could start or he could end up being put on the one game injury list with Gale being activated. I think a lot will depend on the week of practice. I can’t see them dressing him without being comfortable putting him into the game. Otherwise we’d be better of with Gale.

So this pretty much guarantees he will be back by week 5??

Hamilton might be the best team in the CFL right now. You need a starting qb who’s capable of going toe to toe with Masoli to beat them. I don’t see BC as being at all in the class. Should at the very least be a close game if not a convincing bombers win even without Nichols.

Later Gaitor

Apparently Jeremiah "The Mole" Masoli currently has tied the CFL record for 8 strait 300 yard plus passing games. He can break the record against Winnipeg this week.

Salary this year won’t be an issue if Streveler keeps this up. I see Nichols being held out for the full 6 games as long as Streveler is winning games. This of coarse will save a load of cap space.

Not sure I would hold the second pick against him all that much either. It was on a two point convert. And interception is no worse than an incompletion or sack in that situation. That’s the time you through one up and hope for the best if you’re under pressure or not seeing anybody open.

Any time a college qb starts game one and throws 3 touchdowns you have to give the offensive coordinator a lot of the credit. I just didn’t like the play calling on that final drive. Streveler needed to act like a real quarback and throw the ball downfield or else Edmonton would have kept loading the box like they did early in the game.

I like how we were pretty aggressive with Streveler however with a minute twenty on the clock after a poor kickoff return there's no excuse for not keeping the ball on the ground and keeping the clock running. That 2 and 0 killed us there. You run on first and run a draw play on second. If you make a big play then you go more aggressive. You don't leave Edmonton the maximum amount of clock there.

Personally I'd like to see us put Fenner at halfback once Mo is back. It was very evident that Gaitor doesn't have the height/vertical out there and at least Fenner is 6'1... That game made we wish we had kept Saisay around.

Some how Alex Ross still managed to heavily contribute to the loss.

How can we get a extra DE, lb, wr and kicker on the roster??

Who’s the third scratch? Wilson or Lankford?

I would prefer to see Augustine back there. We need to do everything we can to keep Demski healthy and starting in our receiving core.

Would we not need one more to sit as well? Either Roh, Wilson, or lankford?

No. He had always been on the main roster.

You could if you named 4 defensive lineman as regular imports. Whether or not Conrey was the first rush end you rolled out there would be a moot point. Am i wrong about this? Or would you literally need to have the 4 american defensive lineman on the field for the first play of the game?

I don't feel any different either way about my team. It's just that I don't trust Jones as a human being.
