Here’s who has earned a checkmark from bluebombers.com through the first two days… Sunday: DT Cory Johnson, WR Darvin Adams, QB Matt Nichols, SB Nic Demski, SB Daniel Petermann, C Matthias Goossen, QB Alex Ross, DB Tyniel Cooper, CB Chris Randle Monday: LB/DB Chandler Fenner, CB Brandon Alexander, WR Myles White, WR Weston Dressler, SB A.J. Coney, WR Tylor Henry, DE Craig Roh and DB Kevin Fogg, who had an interception on the last play of the day. Standing out in the first two-a-day of training camp were: SB Nic Demski, WR Corey Washington, DB Anthony Gaitor, DT Drake Nevis, DT Cory Johnson, QB Alex Ross, RB Timothy Flanders, QB Matt Nichols, CB Chris Randle, WR Ryan Lankford, CB Brandon Alexander. STANDING OUT: DB Marcus Sayles, WR Weston Dressler, S Taylor Loffler, RB Andrew Harris, WR Darvin Adams, DE Craig Roh, CB Chris Randle, WR Ryan Lankford. Thursday’s prime-time players, from this perch, included DB Marcus Sayles – again – WR Darvin Adams, QB Matt Nichols, DE Jackson Jeffcoat, DT Cory Johnson, WR A.J. Coney, QB Alex Ross, WR Myles White, LB Adam Bighill, LB Jovan Santos-Knox. Friday - WR Darvin Adams, QB Matt Nichols, QB Alex Ross, QB Chris Streveler, DB Tyniel Cooper, WR A.J. Coney, DB Steven Clarke, LB Quentin Gause, WR Donteea Dye, CB Brian Walker., Notice Darvin Adams..because he has been noticed 4 times already through camp. Same with our ‘scrub’ QB Matt Nichols and.. Alex Ross 4 A.J. Coney 3 Corey Johnson 3 CB Chris Randle Nic Demski 2 CB Brandon Alexander 2 DB Marcus Sayles 2 WR Myles White 2 WR Weston Dressler 2 DE Craig Roh 2 Ryan Lankford 2 👁🗨Aw shucks... “I’m fortunate to be on the field with an organization like Winnipeg. I couldn’t ask for much more: the sun’s out, it’s training camp and I feel like we’ve got one of the best teams in the league.” Rashaun Simonise 👁🗨 The good thing about the signing of Bryan Bennett’s that he has the same initials as the Blue Bombers. The bad thing is, so did Brian Brohm.. I think you missed Simonise a couple times there.
May 26, 20187 yr comment_331642 Fogg seems to be (still) taking 1st team reps as a db. I like the guy and at times he has been great as a punt returner but...doesn't it concern any of you that he is still in that spot? I mean, we brought in a bunch of DBs to compete. How come none of them have supplanted some of our 2017 guys yet? Am I making too much of this at this point? Thoughts??

May 26, 20187 yr comment_331647 I have heard Marcus Sayles name quite a bit. Sounds like he has been good competition for the DBs. But other than him??

May 26, 20187 yr comment_331654 Quote I am happy to hear that the concerns about Simonise are not apparent and that he appears to be making the effort to supplement his talent and maybe even challenge for a starting job. The real test will come if he has a setback of one sort or another.
May 26, 20187 yr comment_331656 I think Simonise has already virtually secured a starting spot for June 1st

Once you start looking at all the names, they start to blend together. I started seeing names in my head like Justin Goltz and Darian Durant..so I quit while I was ahead.. BTW...that’s not my list.

Dinwiddie had a cannon compared to that guy. McDougall wasn't that bad. Brohm wasn't good but no where near as bad as Jason Boltus. In all my years I have not seen anyone nearly as bad as that guy was in his limited play time.

Where are these DBs we brought in to compete for spots on a defense that gave up a lot of yards last year? Anthony Gaitor is new and has been practicing with the starters at halfback. Also keep in mind Leggett will be returning and either him or Fenner will be taking an HB spot... likely Fogg's.

Whenever he was in last year as the dime guy he seemed to get picked on quite often and gave up more than his fair share of big plays. If the goal is to tighten up on the backend i dont think having Fogg start in the secondary is the answer. Unless hes really turned his game around. Hopefully someone can step up.

I thought he was strictly an LB with the Lions playing in the box close to the line of scrimmage?

The media seem to be speculating that he will play HB here but I think the plan for him is to play dime and Leggett will be playing HB. We'll see.
May 26, 20187 yr comment_331679 Just now, Bubba Zanetti said: No Leggett back at SAM? That surprises me. Like I said he could very well be back at SAM and Fenner plays HB. We'll have to wait til he is healthy to find out.

We'll see how he performs in the exhibition games - still a long way to go. Kito Poblah was a training camp all-star too, if memory serves. Edited May 27, 20187 yr by kelownabomberfan

It should be Leggett's to lose. He's been arguably our best defensive player the last 2 years.
May 27, 20187 yr comment_331701 People getting caught up in old faces running with the starters (I am guilty of it too) should remember veterans always get the nod to start camp out ... Fogg/Lankford concerns me a bit but let’s wait and see.
