Quote from: BomberFan73 on Today at 11:51:06 AMThe McGhee thing just makes no sense. Why drop a guy that you deemed worthy to be playing with your starters in the 1st week? There was a video of MOS gushing about him too.The coaches , (OShea} liked McPhee hes a vet came to camp in great shape and by giving him reps against top receivers they were able to determine early that he js not the guy.
I feel like maybe the success went to his head a little and something happened...said something to a teammate/whatever.
We know the whole FIFO thing, there must not have been a fit because why wouldn't we have kept him to at least see in in preseason?
Ohwell, I agree with the post above. We've had no issues finding great DBs for years. One of the easiest spots to get rookies to play too.
Quote from: dd on Today at 01:01:29 AMIts about time!! Defensively, the Leafs are horrible, give up consistently 10-15 more shots to the opposition, that's on the system they're playing. They don't have the offense to run and gun with teams, gotta go to a more defensive system...could Bruce Boudreau be the next Leafs coach?? He's from Toronto, played his junior hockey there, played for the Leafs in the NHL, won a Stanley Cup in Washington....they could do alot worse than him
Quote from: Tecno on Today at 04:00:50 AMPretty sure we can and have cut players getting injured in TC before. Teams just drop them like hot potatoes and say "oh well, tough luck!". It's literally the worst time to get injured as I'm pretty sure they don't earn any salary after that.
Only if we gave JSK a huge bonus (I think it was $0?) or we are really high on him do we have to not cut him. If they've officially moved him to the 6G and that makes him now uncuttable, then there's got to be a reason for that.
Quote from: Tecno on Today at 07:15:37 AMThat's good. However, now we've wasted like 3/4's of both camps on McGhee. That's not good. It means any other rookie may be slow off the mark in week 1. That's why I think we start with Vaval or find a vet...
Quote from: Tecno on Today at 04:03:26 AMI'm pretty sure Vibert will be dressed as 6th. Daniels means we don't have to fret about a 7th.
Quote from: Tecno on Today at 04:11:45 AMWhat next man? There is no next man. We wasted a ton of camp on McGhee and I'm pretty sure the only backup plan is Vaval full-time at corner. And he's not that great, yet, AND then we lose him as full-time returner. Ouch.
I haven't heard anyone mention any other DB at all in camp reports. Unless we are putting Allen or Ball at starting corner!!
KW might we be shopping for a legit vet DB right about now... I'd like to see Bonds return eventually, but he has his own year-long injury to heal up first.
