  • lol... Dwight Anderson just got traded to Toronto for pretty much nothing... Suber will bring back a 7th round pick at best.   Worth more to us to keep him.

  • 1.  Can you tell us what routes he was supposed to be running?  Were you in the huddle?  What was the play call?  Thanks in advance.   2.  He was getting open, not sure what you were watching.   3

    Well considering the one throwing the ball has been studying the playbook since he was traded/signed here, he'd probably have a good idea where the route was suppose to go, nevermind that he was seen

Never really pictured Romby at slot...  I like the guy but he doesn't seem like that down and dirty fighter you need going over the middle

 

Surprised that we have no import talent ready to step in at receiver...  

Did he not play a lot of slotback when he was with the Bombers the first go around? 

 

 

Maybe...?  I just remember him at wideout though

 

edit:  just googled a 2008 depth chart... you're right, he's listed as SB with Edwards as boundary receiver

I'm a little surprised Donovan Kemp hasn't been given a shot yet...

 

 

No worries there still a lot of games left to be played, we're just in our 6th.

Let the vets worked their butts off and help this team get wins in the early going.

That will buy these PR guys enough time to learn the CFL and the team's schemes.

Continuity is very important to O'shea and so far it's doing us good.

They will get their chances sooner or later.

How does bringing in Romby Bryant after three games, starting him at WR and then moving him to SB for game 6 fall under 'continuity'?

I guess you missed the part where Nick Moore won't be playing this week, injuries effect continuity.

Look at it this way, Bryant was on the roster to replace Kelly, Kelly is now back so he takes his WR spot back, but Moore goes out with injury so Bryant replaces him at his slotback position. It's continuity. 

 

Quite frankly I don't see Kelly as a slotback type anyway. Use him to be big on deep routes one on one, it's what he's good at, I think Bryant can be more versatile in the middle.

I was looking more at the part where WRs and SBs practice different routes...   and the depth chart that lists Aaron Woods as our backup SB

Not sure where they had him on the depth chart, but Kelly has played exclusively slot this season, and been fairly productive.  Denmark had been playing boundary WR before all the injuries.

 

Not a fan of Romby.  Reminds me of when the tube of toothpaste is basically empty and I twist it to squeeze anything that's left out.  That's where he's at in his career.  I'd be surprised if he makes any difficult catches.

Bowman was a missile against the redblacks.  He was making plays all over the field. 

 

Brandon Stewart played field corner for us, right?  He's listed at HB in Hamilton.  A promotion for him?  HB is going to see more balls than the field corner, right?

 

For sure.  He played a bit of halfback here in 2010, I think, and he wasn't very good at it... but that's 4 years ago.  I'm not sure how he has been doing in Hamilton so far.

Stewart was always one of those big athletic guys here who seemed to have trouble grasping the intricacies of the postiion. Not sure putting him in a more difficult position is the way to go.

as if the initial depth chart listing means much ... the receivers are bundled according to ball position and the play  call ...  they know where each receiver will set up against the expected defensive scheme .... we are playing with not against an Etch style on both sides of the ball ..... this isn't British redcoats positioning in regimen formation but more like guerilla warfare ... sheesh
