James

Sears and Parker may have growing pains, but im confident that in the near future they will be better than avg OLB's for us.

I'm disappointed we have to start McGee at SAM. I was really hoping for a guy like Dunn or Marshall to step in there and impress.... Oh well. As for Mainor, how much did he play in the home exhibition? Was it a mere 5 minutes or an extended amount of time? If he's won the starting spot, I wonder how Zach Anderson will fit in with the team? As for Isaac, isn't he injured as well?

interesting. I don't see the need to keep Lucas on instead of Stephan. And I disagree that they will keep Mainor this year. I think the front 7 will be Harris Gilmore Turner Hall Anderson Thomas Parker Muamba McGee Labbe Stephan I think We keep Stephan around for 2 reasons. we need an emergency fill in at WILL. Labbe doesnt cut it on defence. Stephan would be way more beneficial on ST's than Lucas as well.

I think Watson and Poblah will be starting still. With Etienne getting a fair amount of time in rotation. Im concerned about our secondary to start the year. A lot of Hype around Markett but did he do well when the lights came on? McGee just wont cut it at Nickle/Sam. There's a lot of speed with our newcomers, but can they actually play defense? I don't know. Burris marched the ball at will, and so did all of Toronto's back ups. For a while I thought we could afford to realeas Hefney, But now I'm feeling kind of naked in the back end

So with Sears likely not ready by game day, and Hefney cut, who starts the year off at SAM on the 27th? I sure hope we have a better answer than Desia Dunn or Jeremy McGee! How bad is Washington's injury, and if he cant go who does? David James? oh boy... Who do we keep on the 42 out of Woodson or Volny? With Edwards not likely ready to go and Anderson injured, who fills in there? I bet it will be Denmark, with Pierce starting at WR opposite Matthews.

Not cool bluto

That's a dumb move if true. We should give Markett reps there IMO. Start Marshall and brown on the corners... If Markett is going to be our DI, we should start developing him in areas other than corner IMO

Definately going to be looking forward to checking out these new guys via bob Irving and highlights. I got the impression Marshall was going to be in the running for SAM. I guess he wasn't good there? Anybody know how he's been doing so far?

I really like the look of Frazier so far. Does anyone know where they're putting Z.Anderson? judging by his weight It'll be DT... I was hoping to see him off the edge...

I was fairly surprised they kept him over Dewit, hopefully he did take that step forward.

If you were head coach, didn't like Elliott or Brink and cut them.. .. Would you be comfortable going into season with Goltz hall and clement?

Well, all that unconventional blitzing really seems to work well for you guys, keep it up!

I'm not surprised at all about this. I called this a while back and was laughed at for it.

How does being last in the league in sacks prove your point? Did I miss something there?

PR also got bumped up to nine instead of seven, but the extra two spots need to be Canadians.

As much as I would LOVE to have Glenn on the team(he would make our offence pretty damn good) Im pretty happy with going with Pierce to start the season, just to give Hall/Goltz 2 or three more weeks to get ready to be the true starting QB on the team. after week three(give or take a week or 2) our real stable of QB's will be Hall/Goltz as 1 and 2, and Clement will be brought back as number three.... Hopefully, after that point Burke will be smart enough to put Buck in as an offensive coach of some kind.

This is way wrong. Glenn would make our O-line look way better

Agreed... The offensive line is really coming a long! If we had a Kevin Glenn or Danny McManus type of QB, our O-line would be looking like one of, if not the top unit in the league this year IMO. The way I see it, is if Our defence is as good as it was in 2011, we'll make a serious push this year regardless of our passing game, with the run game being tops in the league, and ST's will being pretty damn good with Dickenson here.

I dont think he can even run anymore anyway though. I think he's done. He'd serve the team a lot better in the role of assistant OC and QB coach.

Im surprised about Marcus Hyde... I thought he was doing good? plus we wanted him for quite a while... BC also wanted him. thats too bad.

but then the grey cup would be ridiculously cold.

I havent had enough time to look at other teams much this year so I'll sit this one out.... I will say that I think Winnipeg will surprise a lot of People this season though!

The practice roster has been increased to nine players, but the two extra spots have to be used on Canadians, I can see us stashing Cameron there...

I'd love to eat some crow in regards to him!

Thanks for the updates guys! I'm not sure what we're going to do at RB. There's so many good players there. I'm happy I'm not the one that's gotta pick the roster, because its tougher then ever to try and do so.
