I know we can still find the PDF on their site but that takes more work. As for the depth chart itself... - Going to miss Gauthier. Hopefully Briggs will have a good game. He seemed to be ahead of Gauthier a season or two ago (if I recall correctly he started at WIL for a spell) but then got surpassed. - I continue to be amused that they are giving Thomas a secondary OL number even though we're rostering 7 OL - Love keeping McRae on the roster 7 hours ago, LXTSN said: If Demski is in the lineup, I'd almost prefer to see Agudosi take that spot instead of McCrae. We don't have a "jump-ball" type of reciever without him in the lineup. I think Schoen is probably the closest to this and seems to have ability to high point the ball along with his amazing route running etc.

Also really good at adjusting. I don't really consider him a jump ball guy. When Lawler comes back he has more of that to his game. But yeah without him I think Agudosi is the only one.

Up there with Edmonton in the 80s who went Moon to Dunigan to Allen to Ham. And then a blip of Drew Tate before the long tenure of BLM. Quite a run indeed!

I'll never forget one Stamps home game at least 10 years ago where he took a big hit & was shaken up. He came off the field for a series then went back in again before the 1st half ended. He was coming out of the locker room walking to the bench. He was stopped by a TSN reporter Jermain Franklin for an interview. He was asked how he felt. He told the reporter he has no memory of playing in the first half & the only reason he went back in was the doctors cleared him. The next day, the CFL launched an investigation of the Stamps medical staff & HC John Hufnagel into the team's concussion protocols. Did Huff or the doctors make Tate go back in when it wasn't safe? He put the reputation of Huff as a coach & the entire medical & training staff on the line. Then, he says. "Oh, I was just kidding! I really was alright. My memory was fine." I'm sure he heard about it from Huff & team officials. What a moron.

I don't recall the circumstances... but if this played out as you described and the team forced him out to play when he shouldn't have... he was likely still "off" during that half time interview and the team rightfully, should have been called out for unsafe player management... if Calgary took heat for this, they only have themselves to blame

Briggs for a few games as an injury replacement in 2019... both guys getting a little older (Briggs 33, Gauthier 31) and may not have a lot of time left... their biggest impact is on special teams... Gauthier, especially, as I'll never forget the game saving play he made in the 2019 WCF... Agree with you on McCrae... I know we all have high hopes for Agudosi... and not giving up on him yet... I just think McCrae brings more of what we need right now... change of pace back, great route running, great catcher... Woli, BOLO, Schoen, and Lawler can all bring what Agudosi brings to the table Edited July 7, 20232 yr by bearpants

July 7, 20232 yr comment_643015 We can keep throwing out suggestions, but I don’t see one topping Maier McCheese. Sometimes you just have to tip your hat and concede the win to the superior player. This may be the most brilliant nickname since Kamau Incompleterson. That one is in the Hall of Fame.
