September 16, 20168 yr comment_224204 Randle and Adams for the first time ! Looking forward to see Flanders Edited September 16, 20168 yr by M.O.A.B.
September 16, 20168 yr comment_224205 All in all, I see no drop off if Harris is a go. If I had to guess, it looks like we're going to go with Heath and Tennant as the scratches?
September 16, 20168 yr Author comment_224206 As happy as I am to have Randle back .. I'm somewhat worried about the continued changes to the back end of our defense. On a personal note, I'd rather see Frederick in over Adams and I'm hoping Heath can push Johnson off the game day depth chart sooner rather than later.

I believe we havent had the same secondary for consecutive games. And I got a sense they will contnue to do that even guys are healthy to keep everyone fresh.

I kind of like the idea of having all the DL dress to split reps 65-35ish between the starters and backups against a guy like LeFevour. Could be a lot of long downs with lots of running to contain him. Gauthier or Richards could be the other scratch.

September 16, 20168 yr comment_224213 That secondary looks pretty mean! I'd like to see Heath over Johnson but other then that those guys are going to be picking off The Fever all day

September 16, 20168 yr comment_224223 Step right up Tony Burnett, now's the chance you've been training for. Don't **** it up!
September 16, 20168 yr comment_224234 I know they're totally different positions and all, but man I hate seeing Freddy Frederick sitting while Rented Mule Johnson continues to see the field...

September 16, 20168 yr comment_224241 We CANT possibly win seven in a row can we I'll be there tomorrow for the first time all season. Work has been hectic, but hopefully i'll get to see the Bomber Defense beat the snot out of Dan Lefevour.
September 16, 20168 yr comment_224243 So what's our ideal secondary once everyone is healthy? Randle-Heath-Loffler-Fogg-Adams or does Frederick take over for Adams? What if Adams shows out this week and you can't take him out of the lineup? What about CJ Roberts and Julian Posey? Good problems to have. Does Walters use this area of strength to help prop up our team in other areas come trade deadline perhaps? I would think that no less than 3-4 teams (Saskatchewan, Edmonton, Montreal, Ottawa if not more) would appreciate the depth at secondary that we have. It also speaks to the fact that Walters held firm in his ask for Heath when we acquired him from the Argos that maybe he has a plan for the added depth at secondary. Maybe we can flip Roberts or Posey to Sask for Roosevelt before he bails on them in FA anyways ?
September 16, 20168 yr comment_224244 25,000 tickets sold so far, disappointing. Thought it would at least 28-29,000 after the banjo bowl and current win streak
September 16, 20168 yr comment_224247 We have used I think at least 10 guys in the secondary this season so I would not want to move anyone. Its a place you want lots of depth.
September 16, 20168 yr comment_224248 I honestly believe there's no such thing as too much depth. Injuries are a big part of football. You can never account for what may happen. Having depth in our secondary is absolutely crucial down the stretch.
September 16, 20168 yr comment_224250 Fogg and Frederick are probably making near minimum salaries. That will change once their current contracts are up and Walters will have to play with that secondary a bit to keep their collective salaries within reason.

Im a total believer after that interview, dude has got the perfect mentality, hoping his play can match.

I think it will be difficult for Walters to maintain the status quo. Players who can play, will want to play and if they're not getting the game time they think they deserve they may choose to move on to a team that gives it to them come FA.

Maybe we can flip Roberts or Posey to Sask for Roosevelt before he bails on them in FA anyways ? I think Posey is done for the season. So, really, we have four corners (Randle, Adams, Frederick, Roberts) and three halfbacks (Fogg, Johnson, Heath). I'd rather keep the depth than start shipping players out. I can't imagine we would get that much in return for an import DB, especially if it's an underperforming guy like B Johnson. Maybe you could move Roberts to a desperate team for a 6th round pick or something but again, I'd rather keep the depth if we can. All of them are likely making low salaries outside of Randle and Johnson.
