Quote from: Throw Long Bannatyne on April 14, 2026, 10:28:36 PMSo far Clercius hasn't come close to Woli or Bailey in terms of impact, he usually makes a 1 or 2 catches per game and rarely makes a big play or adds any YAC.  Sterns was more effective and they let him walk away.

Ya, as the "placeholder NAT REC" Clercius isn't even remotely close to Woli.  Woli was a legit impact player that got us actual TDs.  Some really good ones.  I hope he gets better, ya, but his situation must be pretty precarious right about now.

There's always room for QBs. We just added Perkins who is already 30. Elgersma's chances aren't going to expire at 24.

Quote from: blue_or_die on April 14, 2026, 06:41:36 PMDepends what you mean by "production". I don't expect him to get ten targets a game and 80 yards. I do expect that he has 1-2 clutch catches a game and does noticeably well blocking and getting open, if only to distract the opposing DBs away from the top receivers so a Pokey or Tim White can get open.

Basically, Wolitarsky in his prime would be a laudable goal to reach for.

solid add to our coaching staff, experience playing in the league, knows the league, knows the community and knows the football franchise. Having another experienced set of eyes and brain on the sideline is never a bad thing.

White, Wilson and Demski are a pretty solid top 3 recieving corps, and add Nield and Clercius, we got a decent receiving corps, far better than last years group.

Quote from: dd on April 14, 2026, 10:11:29 PMI don't have an answer as to why teams would want to look at some kid who's played at some Canadian university that played 3 down football when you have players who are older, more experienced and played at legit Big 10 colleges, drafted or played in the NFL, but it could  be because it isn't costing them anything, he's a walk on, so there's no downside to them to have him hang around. It's a loooooong shot for him if he makes it, but that's his risk on the team's.

I don't understand why he figures he deserves these tryouts after proving really nothing at the pro level, and is totally raw to the 4 down system. Nathan Rourke couldn't make it, guaranteed, this guy doesn't make it, guaranteed. He's wasting his time there and at the same time, not getting any experience at the 3 down pro level, where his experience playing 3 down football is an asset, not a liability like in the UFL.

Hoping he figures it out in the next few months and reports to Bomber TC on time, if he  wastes another year he might as well shoot himself in the foot.
