All the great linebacker prospects Petrishen, Moses and Tre Thomas cut. What a god damned shame. Upshaw and Chris Smith too. Sigh. Michael Ayers made the roster

Shocked Tre Thomas didn't stick around. Never saw it with Petrishen the way others did on here. Thought he looked the part but didn't play the part. Assume they would've kept Moses but he got hurt early in the game

June 2, 20241 yr comment_698960 Guessing McGhee was prob willing to take a pr spot and the others weren’t cuz ain’t no way he was better than a D ford

Thomas is one I thought they'd keep for sure. But maybe he refused PR spot. Knew they'd keep Gemmel. Think he's a guy who will be in the league for awhile.
June 2, 20241 yr comment_698962 Just now, Mike said: Yeah, I know how it works lol You asked and I answered 😉 No need to 1-game a player who isn't a vet when another team isn't going to sign them while they're injured. That would just be throwing money away

Noticed Thomas and Petrishen more, but maybe earlier in the games before the defense got worn out. All the backers showed well imo. I think the reason Ayer’s made the cut over the rest is he looked good on teams too. I’m sure more moves are coming to set up the week 1 roster. Not excited about our kr situation. The biggest cut I don’t like is rosery. Couple others really don’t make sense either.

Every decision is very calculated by the Bombers, including not releasing cuts, depth charts or injury reports until as late as possible to not give any advantage to other teams around the league. If Chris Smith was a serious injury he probably would've been 6-gamed. But also maybe not because then he'd have veteran status in the league. Being on the one game gives players an accrued game. Teams value trying to keep players on rookie status so they don't have to be on the hook in case of injury. Not putting Chris Smith on 1-game if the injury isn't serious and bringing him back when he's healthy feels like a no-brainer. Probably a 1-3 week injury and they said let's bite the bullet.
June 2, 20241 yr comment_698969 Sometimes the best DBs are the ones you don't really notice out there. I think that's what you get with Bonds and Bridges
June 2, 20241 yr comment_698970 If Shayne gauthier is our starting middle line backer, someone needs to explain things.
June 2, 20241 yr comment_698971 Looks like the front 4 will be great with WJ, Haba, garbutt, fox, adams, woods. Like others I’m surprised tre Thomas and petrishen didn’t stick around. no idea who will be returner. If it’s Mitchell did he even take any reps there in camp?
June 2, 20241 yr comment_698972 To be positive, I like that it looks like we'll be using more american DTs and will have a nice american rotation at DE.
June 2, 20241 yr comment_698974 Rosery makes no sense to me. We are short Canadians. We start a Canadian at tailback. We want to start 2 Canadian receivers. Augustine is 30. Rosery showed really well too.

Thought for sure Rosery would be moved to the PR as the future replacement for Augustine.
June 2, 20241 yr comment_698976 Just now, Goalie said: On the downside we are gonna be starting 9 Canadians I bet. 10 if Shayne starts while Biggie is hurt (probably happens, they never trust rookie Americans to start Week 1) 3 OL, 2 WR, Brady, Thomas (will start no matter what Oshea for some reason has the biggest hard on for him), Redha, Ford, Gauthier I would expect Brian Cole will play more than Gauthier but Gauthier will start until Bighill is back
June 2, 20241 yr comment_698977 My overly optimistic game day roster for D is habba/garbutt Adams fox wj with woods scratched Thomas to ir and the two Canadians backing up at dt kyrie/ayers gemmel Cole Canadians tanner max and Shayne back up Bridges nichols Kelly holm ford back ups bond kramdi hallett I’m kind of sick that mcghee made the ar. I suspect he will start but if he does teams are gonna go at him hard
June 2, 20241 yr comment_698978 3 Canadian RBs on the roster already without Rosery... Brady, Johnny (much better than Rosery despite what people on here have said) and Chris-Ike who doubles as fullback
