Even if you think Medlocks kicking will improve, you have to wonder if it’s worth big money for an import kicker who unequivocally cannot punt.

Guys like Carmichael and Sam Hurl getting to stay in the lineup is really what makes me question O’Shea more than anything else.

Are Darvin Adams, Travis Bond, Mo Leggett, Jamal Westerman and a fully functional Matt Nichols enough to overcome an 8 point deficit? Absolutely.

One of the only kickers with a worse percentage than Medlock this year, although on a much smaller sample size.

You may make some good points, but this fails to take into account the significant injuries hampering this team. Not to mention, the 2017 Eskimos are far better than the 2016 Lions were.

We have quite the worst receivers in the league without Darvin. Not a single one of our other imports sans Dressler played well enough to be a professional football player. I would bring Givens, and possibly Washington back to camp next year. But a guy like Denmark was absolutely brutal, and has definitely played his last game in the CFL. Getting Chris Matthewsback to pair with Darvin and Dressler would be perfect.

Dressler needs to come back, albeit on a smaller deal reflecting the injury risk that he’s becomes. Something around 125K seems fair. Medlock can get lost. Worst kicker, and worst punter in the league this year.

It would probably be a better use of a roster spot than dressing Kyle Knox for whatever that's worth.

Any chance that Lankford still sits? No backup import DB?

This makes me oh so nervous.

Have we forgotten about the legendary Stubler bend but don’t break D already?

Missing Nichols, Leggett, and Bond who were all deserving. While on the other hand Loffler is probably lucky to be on there.

He WAS good, but then with all of his injuries he didn’t play well when called upon. Maybe being a backup for a little while has helped him get healthy and play to his prior standards.

It’s strange that they benched him, he was our second leading receiver in the last game he played.

I posted stats for the last six games, during which we’ve only had one of Dressler/Adams on the field, no Thrope, and Flanders missed 3. I’d also argue that I wouldn’t expect a running back or a receiver who’s played a total of 3 games to be ahead of Denmark in the hierarchy. At worst, he’s been our supposed number three receiver in that stretch. His production has been alarmingly bad, Aaron Hargreaves wide side Canadian receiver bad. There’s just no defending an import receiver averaging 2.3 catches for 21 yards through the stretch run of the season. I’d be shocked if Denmark plays another regular season game in the CFL at this point

Why are we looking to start 3 Canadian OL next year? Is Bond a pending FA?

Here’s some numbers for the many Homer’s on this site who don’t have the ability to acknowledge the fact that some players on this team actually do underachieve. Denmarks last six games 3/25 1 TD 6/63 1/9 3/20 0/0 1/8 For a paltry average of 2.33/21 yards. If you guys are fine with this production from what should be our second or third receiver all the power to you .

I’m saying that he’s done and doesn’t have the ability to play anymore.

Denmark is a lost cause. I’m afraid he’s playing out the string of his CFL career at this point.

Last year could’ve been our year, but there’s no reason this won’t be. I’d love to take down the Riders and then the Stumps on our way to a long awaited Grey Cup victory.

I’d throw a pile of money at him for three weeks of work and tell him he’s free to try the show again after that. Honest to god, in the unlikely scenario they could get him here for Monday, he’d be in my starting lineup no questions asked for the WSF.

If we can get any one player back I’d like it to be Darvin, but Westerman would be a huge boon as well. I see a few people are speculating on Darvin, has anyone heard any updates?

Give me the Riders.

Make no doubt about it, if we’re lucky enough to host the WSF we’re going to kick the Riders to the curb.

You also have to consider the Esks have arguably the best receivers in the league while the Bombers have among the worst. That’s a major difference.
