Posted June 13, 20178 yr comment_268053 Thought I'd start a thread for the week leading up to this week's game... Couple notes outta Edm (via Dave @ CHED Radio) that I've seen: Mike Reilly not playing this week...Franklin starts with others getting some time after. Most vets not playing for Edm this week...starting OL likely to get significant time, but that's about it. Still a battle for the WIL spot in Edm, which will continue this week vs Wpg.
June 13, 20178 yr comment_268058 Franklin looked damn good running their offence against Calgary. I thought EDM might have some trouble in their receiving corps this season but it looks like they have a couple studs in Zylstra and D'haquille Williams. This will be a good test for our secondary. Kinda surprised that Reilly won't be playing, though. I still have my doubts about Edmonton. I'm not sold on their OL, running game, or secondary.

Reilly must have an injury concern, I can't see any other reason he wouldn't be playing. Good test for the Bombers to show how their pass D has improved and get after Franklin.

June 14, 20178 yr comment_268217 thats a lot of offensive power missing from esks offense. Would have liked to have seen starters vs starters for a better gauge of our team
June 14, 20178 yr Author comment_268220 No excuse for losing this game, at any rate....let's give the fans something to be excited about while we're on bye next week...

Very young lineup. #Eskimos #CFLTC And on D.....missing a lot of bodies....
June 14, 20178 yr comment_268224 Edmonton looking very mortal this year... Benevides D does not impress me - I expect Nichols to look good If Richie Hall gets lit up by Franklin and Edmonton's B squad, I'll have the panic button ready...
June 14, 20178 yr comment_268228 I don't know what to make of that depth chart. I get everyone is going to get reps and there's no ratio, but I'm curious about the defensive ratio. I'm also curious as to why Kyle Knox is still around, I think. He just seems to be *there*, never seems to make any strides in improving.
June 14, 20178 yr comment_268235 so Greenwood in Fredericks spot. Don't think i've heard his name mentioned much in camp previous, or I've been asleep at the wheel...

Dude is a big man who can cover (apparently) and plays all ST and doesn't get tired. MOS says "he's got an all-day motor"...

Will be interesting to watch tomorrow, definitely someone who should get most peoples attention seeing as we kinda know what everyone else can do. CB and MLB will be to focal points for me

June 14, 20178 yr Author comment_268244 Well ****....okay, whoever is starting in Frederick's spot....that's who I was talking about, anyhow.......
June 14, 20178 yr comment_268248 Chris Greenwood actually arrived last year and spent most of the year on the practice roster. He has some NFL experience (2012 5th round pick). Good size, 6'1" 200 lbs.
June 14, 20178 yr comment_268263 Still open season on MLB I guess? Temple is listed ahead of Knox & Hurl on that chart but he's been at OLB for most of camp.

June 14, 20178 yr comment_268291 Pointing more and more like we're going to go with Hurl at MLB. Don't even know if we can DI a linebacker, or if we should.
