Same reason he didn't mention Streveler when discussing the QB's. I assume its this. I don't see us starting 3 NI wrs early this season. He also doesnt mention petermann. But both are on the depthchart for tomorrow.

Same reason he didn't mention Streveler when discussing the QB's. Well, the QB spot specifically mentions "#3 QB", so not surprising not to see Streveler mentioned. With a blanket "receiver" designation, thought they might include all remaining receivers. And odd to think they have already deemed Simonise (and Petermann for that matter) as a guaranteed back-up when there is still a spot up for grabs. As long as they are still around though, good enough for me.
June 5, 20196 yr comment_394941 You need to have two Canadian receivers as back ups on the roster so Petermann and Simionise are locks to be on 46. I guess he did not get a lot of reps in the first game since they want to get good looks at all the American receivers.

Schrot could get a PR shot (he looked solid on teams on top of his td) but the NI wrs are set. I feel like we would be in good shape even if one of those guys started a bunch of games this year. I hope both get more touches this year and a decent chunk of action tomorrow.
June 6, 20196 yr comment_395032 Maybe I missed it but does anyone know what is going on with the SAM linebacker position? It seems like a done deal that Fenner has been moved to one of the cornerback spots. I have heard nothing about who is battling to replace him at SAM. Did I miss something?? Im also a little surprised that they moved him. I thought he was solid at SAM and it seems to me its easier to find a replacement cornerback than linebacker. Edited June 6, 20196 yr by Bubba Zanetti

Gaitor played sam for most of last season, and almost certainly will again this season.

We started with Leggett and then Gaitor took his spot and has been phenomenal playing it IMO.

Gaitor took the job from Fenner last year and seems to have retained it. Fenner has been relegated to field corner but could potentially lose that job to a rookie if they want to save on SMS.
June 6, 20196 yr comment_395036 Fenner will not be going anywhere...to valuable..plays all DB spots..SAM and probably the best ST'mer in CFL...

Leggett was hurt to start the season so Fenner had the job for the first 3 or 4 games. Then Leggett took it, then Gaitor.

Every one being healthy I think the starters break down as Gaitor, fenner, sayles, rose, alexander, and jones. With one of humes, cooper, and maybe coleman as a DI extra db. Good crop of dbs considering the turn over this year.

Humes is like Lawler in that he has a great advantage from being here last year and good upside. Coleman reminds me of Carmichael in that he got burnt a lot but our coaches seem to like him. I haven't seen enough of our hopeful dbs but I thought Este and Mike Jones showed something in the pre-season game.

Despite no Mo, no Randle and fogg being gone I feel like this is a strong secondary with out the weak link weve seen in recent years. Atleast so far on paper any way. (pray we dont have another roc)
June 6, 20196 yr comment_395067 The thing I liked about este in game 1 is that he always seemed involved in the tackles.

June 6, 20196 yr comment_395093 Rios has a great story too but I believe he's been hurt since Oliveira blindsided him. Lots of guys in camp this year that are easy to root for.
June 6, 20196 yr Author comment_395099 I’m in on Este. 3 tackles and 2 ST tackles last game. He looked to be in the right spot (where he should be). I also do like Lawler. Este, Lawler. I like these guys makeup.. Edited June 6, 20196 yr by Mr Dee

I hope it wasn't intentional- cuz we don't need shits like that on our team. I am high on Brady, but if does **** like that.. dude needs to growthefuckup- those are his team mates.

Yeah, not sure if blindside is the right word but Rios definitely wasn't ready for it.

I didnt see the play but it sounded like he was carrying the ball. In which case you gotta be more aware. If not and it was a block and on the dirty side, well tbh ill take some nasty edge out side of the OL. You have limited ability to be physical and make an impact. If its a full on cheap shot, thats not cool. If its similar to what weve seen out of our OL getting down field and smashing guys trying to get in on the back of the play im all for it.
