I thought our kick coverage was very good last season. Did we give a return TD?? Logan injured all TC is a disappointment. Had high hopes for him and our return game.

Randolph in for Lofton is a straight import swap.

If they were going to have Randolph at LG, it's still an extra IMP.

If Wallace had won the LG spot, he'd be playing as LG.

Corcoran would be fine as a back-up, but not as the only back-up. This is how we ended up with Strev running routes last year. The reason we signed all of these CFL vets at receiver was to not put ourselves in this position.

Probably but if Makonzo and Kelly were healthy they may have pushed around the Canadian depth at LB towards DB's. Kelly might have even had a chance to push towards a starters role at safety. While he might not have been the best choice, it was a choice that could have allowed another DL option.

Haggerty and Cobb as well, I'm sure they didn't sign those guys to sit on the PR, good chance Smith and Shay get moved to the PR to pay their dues.

Kelly is starting to fall into the same category as Noah Hallett. Injured a lot.

I would have expected Novak to be the one to move to PR. The other two I expected to stay on the AR. It might have meant Gauthier or Cadwallader might have been bumped to 1 game IR.

It's all just a guess due to the injuries to those players. We'll see what happens if and when they are healthy. Kelly might be done longer than 6 weeks and Hagerty might be available for game 2.  I don't think we know the extent of any of those currently injured.

Right about Novak, but can't touch Cadwallader or Gauthier, not going to bump the leaders of ST for rookies, that would cause a revolt.

IDK. You have to make space for high draft choices that will be doing the same thing. Those 2 could be fighting for starting or significantly more reps by 2026. You can't say that about Gauthier or Cadwallader.

Roster size means choices have to be made. We made a tough decision on Woli for similar reasons I'm suggesting at LB.

Did that cause a revolt?

The mix of players on ST's changes every season. It changes as when and if there are injuries.

At this point I don't even know how often or how Shay or Smith will be used. I'm pretty sure they won't be sitting on the bench all game. Whether that happens in game 1 or week to week we'll see who that takes off some ST work.

Great night for football. Nice temps, and the air quality is not to bad.

We didn't play last week so didn't incur new injuries. We've had longer to rest and to prepare. It's a home game and the Lions are on the road. 30,000+ loud fans will cause the Lions to make at least a couple of mistakes.

No excuses tonight. Come out ready and take over the game.

GO BOMBERS.
