Blue In BC

Ok. We currently have 93 players. Bombers have had a few tryout camps recently so we should start seeing some new additions. At the moment I'd guess we're a little light in number of bodies at receiver. Only 15 listed at the moment and we usually bring in 20-24. OTOH we have 22 DB's listed today.

I don't see any unexpected retirements of veterans but there are often a couple of rookies that decide to be no" no shows".

Overall the roster depth looks pretty good. For the most part rookies are fighting for back up spots on either the AR or PR.

Any rumours out there about some new faces?

thanks for the info guys, this will be an very interesting camp as always but we are going through a wee bit of change and need to rebound this year.  Preseason is one of my favorite times of years, watching the game is great but also the info we get on here from folks at practice is just awesome.  Roster insight and guessing games on who makes it is also a fun one!  Will be fun once the forum starts building their depth charts and pecking order for PR.

I'll be paying more attention to what posters here and MOS/KW comment on as really big standouts.  Hopefully we score the next D.Alford or Schoen.
Never go full Johnston!

Televised. Perfect. We don't always get Bomber pre-season games shown like in the past. It will be the only game some rookies will play.
