August 11, 20168 yr Author comment_214926 Only *real* concern for me is Foketi apparently playing RT for the first time ever. Is a long time natural LT, so he says he's gotta reverse everything...kinda like a right-handed person trying to write with their left......or vice versa. Hopefully not a huge issue...'cause I like Bond back at Guard.

Hopefully Foketi adjusts well, the coaching staff seem to be high on him.
August 11, 20168 yr comment_214933 Bauming was saying dressler macho (ugg) adams and McDuffie should be good to go after the bye. Smith and Randle a week or 2 later. Hardrick could be after the bye also or a week or 2 later Edited August 11, 20168 yr by Goalie
August 11, 20168 yr comment_214934 As for that bad mother foketi... I thought and yeah it was just preseason but I thought he stood out in a good way and wasn't surprised that they kept him around

August 11, 20168 yr comment_214938 Macho as a special teams player might not be bad. I dunno tho. It's just what Bauming said. McDuffie... I'm not that high on him but I suppose if it means less injury risk to Fogg.... sure. I'm also not convinced that macho and McDuffie are on the 46 when healthy
August 11, 20168 yr comment_214948 Fogg is averaging 18 yds on punts....not sure we can move him off returns. Jovon could do it.....
August 11, 20168 yr comment_215010 McDuffie is going to have to do something on offense to stay on the roster, not this week obviously. Guys like Denmark, Feoli-Gudino, Leggett,and Dressler can handle some returns, more guys can handle kickoffs if needed due to fatigue or injury.
August 12, 20168 yr comment_215089 wow Toronto has five Nationals on their OL. How did they pull that off? Gives them a lot of roster flexibility on defense.

Was he stashed away in a house with 20 other guys? ? What too soon?

They have this thing called a practice roster. The issue is nobody on the Rider's staff can count. They thought they had ten guys.
August 12, 20168 yr comment_215121 Going in with only one oline backup seems risky to me esp since Courture is a raw rookie .....
August 12, 20168 yr comment_215124 was hoping we'd see more healthy bodies coming into the line up. Cant see foketi making our OL worse. Hope he shows some thing. And hope we get healthy in a hurry.
August 12, 20168 yr comment_215126 There's no way macho is getting his spot back. Loffler has been playing great and is a national.

Couture has filled in adequately a few times this year... and we go with one back up O-lineman every game... Jake Thomas is the second back up if there's 2 injuries... this is nothing new....
August 12, 20168 yr comment_215147 Interestingly I remember before training camp I was listening to the coaches' show on CJOB and when O'Shea was asked about the O-Line he specifically mentioned Manase Foketi as being a prospect he was excited about. I'm hoping for big things out of him.

We got down to no healthy back up ol and had to have jake change numbers, Which means we have no back up DT. Carrying soo many Lbers and soo few linemen will haunt eventually. Not to mention if tackles go down we have to put jake in side and move a guard out side thats an even bigger risk.
