You were talking about taking off the backup LB to get a DE on. Ayers wouldn’t on the roster.

Hope it doesn’t work like that. I subscribe to TSN digital just for the CFL season.

As mentioned elsewhere on here, Cody doesn’t have Mack to bail him out this year. Unless one of their new receivers is a stud he’ll be in trouble

LFG!!

If Cole or Wilson goes down then you’d have Gauthier or Kramdi playing every down. I agree if it would be nice to have another DE on the roster but with the limitations on Americans you can only have so many American backups playing.

If that happened you’d be complaining we have no import LB depth. I’m all for complaining about roster management after last year but this is getting ridiculous. I’m glad Hubert shows enough promise to stick around on the PR but he’s an 8th round pick for godsake

I guess Lemon is allowed to play while his suspension is appealed? Apparently it’s the Als right tackle’s first game, so hopefully Willie and Haba (and anyone else playing end despite being a tackle) can give him a warm welcome

Don’t know which American would come off the roster though. The back up DB? Then we’d all complain about the lack of depth there. could use a cdn DE. Mason Bennett coming still?

Exactly. He was an American that wasn’t good at any of the positions he played.

Lawler

McGhee isn’t even on the active roster so we’ve avoided that to start the season at least

Looks like the front 4 will be great with WJ, Haba, garbutt, fox, adams, woods. Like others I’m surprised tre Thomas and petrishen didn’t stick around. no idea who will be returner. If it’s Mitchell did he even take any reps there in camp?

It was but to be fair in the playoffs he was playing with a bunch of receivers that couldn't move.

Pretty much an all rookie line up. Looking forward to seeing Smith at RB and the LBs at least.

No I want to live my dream of 4-5 1000 receivers every year!

Agree, but that is pretty much Woli's role already. I think the 5th guy should be one who could in theory step up and fill in for Schoen or Lawler if they get hurt.

Would be nice to have a guy that would be dangerous on a bubble screen and crossing patterns. Agree that we don't necessarily need the import to take on Bailey's blocking role if Clercius can come into that role sometimes

Stings for me because when he was healthy he's the best returner I've ever seen live.

My big question is how is Wayne McGarrity looking and will he take hold of that spot on the offense

Who?

Damn that one stings a bit

This is just inventing problems. You get people in seats for game 1 and then maybe they come back because they enjoyed themselves.

Honestly I get the decision not to televise all CFL preseason games. It's just freaks like us that care to watch it.

Wouldn't be surprised if Mitchell, Wilson, and Case all stick around in some capacity on the PR or active roster. Case may get on the roster as a returner depending how they choose to go there. Did he even play in the first preseason game? Honestly no idea who that is

Overall I was impressed with the new guys in the front 7 playing in the first quarter. They looked good again the Rider starters, played fast and aggressive.
