Posted June 10, 201510 yr comment_124306 Sounds like the Bombers need to make between 8-10 cuts by Monday to get down to the 65 man limit. Not sure of how many counters they currently have, but it's at least 73 and seems to be no more than 75 if I have it right - which I'm not sure I do. I'm also not sure they can hide people on the 1 game IR yet so anyone being hidden would have to go on the suspended list (which I guess is the same thing right now) or the 6 game IR. If I had to guess right now ... DB Patrick Hall RB Bradley Randle DB Vernon Kearney LB Dominique Franks LB Curtis Taylor OL Corey Lewis P Anthony Santella WR Justin Veltung WR Ezra Millington FB Carl Fitzgerald I'd imagine these are a few of the prime candidates. Thoughts?
June 10, 201510 yr comment_124315 all I know is that Marve definately won't be one of them, considering the game he played last night (hope he shows the same results in regular season)
June 10, 201510 yr Author comment_124316 I like Fitz, I hope we keep him around. Could also be Cronk instead of Fitz if they view him as less versatile.
June 10, 201510 yr comment_124319 The roster count is 80 players at the moment, including the 10 non-counters. I believe, the non-counters and IR guys are excluded on the 65, correct? If that's the case, then we only need to cut 5 players. RB Randle FB Cronk DB Hall DB Kearney DB Franks

Anyways, I figured some guys will go to the IR like - Stoudermire, Neufeld, Dile and West (what's the deal with him?) So my list would be RB Randle (or RB Scott) FB Cronk (or FB Fritz) DB Hall DB Kearney DB Franks LB Taylor There.

June 10, 201510 yr comment_124329 I'd be surprised if they let Franks go right away. He had one bad play but several good ones.
June 10, 201510 yr comment_124330 Is Richards ever going to even practise? Still no word on what is wrong with him. 2-3 days is now what 2 weeks? Wouldn't be surprised if we are working on a trade. Richards probably doesn't even want to play for WPG. With him being a lifelong Rider lover and all.
June 10, 201510 yr comment_124331 Richards is 21. That's what's up. If he didn't wanna be here he wouldn't have 1. Been drafted by us and 2. Signed the contract. I mean really. This crapping on the young guys some ppl do is insane. he's 21. What were you doing at 21?

Stoudermire, is sure on the IR. Not sure on Dile and Neufeld but it's not impossible that they are actually nicked (and not on 'vet dayoff) given their health history. West, I don't know. If they want to have an extended look on some bubble guys on the final tune-up game, then they can chose to do what I have suggested, that's extra 4 guys to look at.
June 10, 201510 yr comment_124334 Portis ? Doubt it but not so good Just based on position. RB or 2 OL or 2 Rec or 2 Couple dbs Maybe the kicker Doubt any Canadians just yet

This crapping on the young guys some ppl do is insane. he's 21. What were you doing at 21? I was 21 in the 60's, a year after "The Summer of Love" to be precise. I really can't remember but then there's a saying "If you can remember the 60's, you weren't there."

June 10, 201510 yr comment_124353 I;d say db Hall for sure...he was getting beat like a rented mule by that Girlie guy last night...Randall did not impress me and by the way the guys on the bench were patting Fitzy on the back after his little bull run up the sidelines... Seems they really like the guy,,,I say he'll hang on over Cronk...Much conjecture about the rest...Going to be some really good football players that will be released..
June 10, 201510 yr comment_124356 For those that have been there - Has Cronk been doing any long snapping in camp?

Richards probably doesn't even want to play for WPG. With him being a lifelong Rider lover and all. ....or maybe he is just injured more than the Bomber care to let on right now. Which seems more likely to you? Him being injured or him signing a contract then immediately changing his mind and requesting a trade.
June 10, 201510 yr comment_124362 I'm sure he's injured. One day morphed into a day or two, morphed into a few days, morphed into reporters not asking the question anymore. We'll see him when we see him. Who knows when that will be.

June 10, 201510 yr comment_124365 Out of the running backs I could definitely see Scott and Randle being cut (Randle may be brought back in when he's healthy for another look).
