June 4, 20223 yr comment_568292 Too bad about Borsa. I think Augustine is easily our best running back. I would have liked some insurance as Olivera is still relatively unproven and had some mediocre games last year.

I agree, I think he will top out around Chris Normand or Kienan LaFrance talentwise, a solid plugger but not a star, but would end up back home with the Riders eventually anyways.

We can retain his rights now. If he chooses to go back to school. They noted that Adamson is going back but didn't have the same comment for Borsa.

Maybe the other guys weren't willing to accept a PR spot. Ellingson, Bailey, Woli, Demski, Grant, McKnight, Schoen, BOL. I think it just comes down to numbers. Tarvaris Harrison makes 9
June 4, 20223 yr Author comment_568297 I mean.... You can't keep everyone. The final roster is a really really good team.

It's not like it would be a stretch to roster him. I'm sure he could be coached into a pretty strong special teamer. Edited June 4, 20223 yr by JuranBoldenRules

It's as simple as Borsa for McRae, I would think. I'm wondering if Borsa just didn't accept a PR spot, because he knows he's got an offer elsewhere (Riders for sure would want him)

June 4, 20223 yr comment_568304 A bit surprised and disappointed to see borsa gone. Hell get snapped up fast. Maybe by Toronto. also surprised Lofton made the cut. All 3 qbs stay with none on the pr. I’m sure with the ir some shuffling is still to be had. guess the secondary will be glass Rutledge nichols rose and Taylor. With Hallets and Thompson at s. Maybe ford or Houston as dime. Kind of disappointed that McKnight made it over some of the young wrs but not surprised.

Im sure management and the coaching staff have their reasons.

June 5, 20223 yr comment_568309 I don't get keeping Knight over many of the other options. Other than that, pretty happy.

Makes sense to me. Many fans still consider the SLB to be a linebacker, even though he covers more and has the body of a DB.
June 5, 20223 yr comment_568311 Well ..with Leggio getting chance to do all 3...allows us that extra skilled player DI...so can see either McRae or an additional receiver on the roster...keeping Harrison and Agudosi over the rest lends me to believe they want that tall big bodied guy to go up and get the ball with the hash mark alignment..and makes total sense

I've got my fingers crossed that Ellingson isn't going to be our latest "Vet Receiver Who Didn't Pan Out/Was A Bust".... I feel like he won't replace Lawler, but he'll at least replace Adams.

Guess we will see, but yeah, not going to replace lawler. Edited June 5, 20223 yr by Mark F

Some one mos / the mafia love over more talented guys. Some times it works out some times it doesnt. At this point as long as he isn’t ahead of schoen It’s just the usual.
