2 serious non contact injuries....father time is telling jerimiah its time.....RB's have got to move on as well, trade their stud D lineman for Evans and turn move on

On the returning players, from the Sun:


O?Shea said the players coming off the six-game injured list likely will practice for two weeks before they will get a chance to play.

I wouldn't expect them to play this week. Why take them off the injured list early just for one game? That would be a big hit to the SMS.

Dane Evans? BC is a contender so they aren't going to get rid his their QB depth.

[M.O.A.B.]

options for KR/PR are McCrae and Daramy-Swaray
So I think it's either Agudosi or extra DB (Muhammad) will take Grant DI spot.

Also not expecting any of 6-gamers will play. But it's good to see the roster is getting healthier.

Apparently MOS said he expects them to practice for a couple of weeks first. Might still be an 'after the bye' situation.

Dru Brown is back at practice as per Ed Tait


Derek Taylor

Day 2 of Bombers practice. SB Nic Demski taking the day off.
QB Dru Brown is back after missing practice Tuesday + last week.


Derek Taylor

Early on WR Carlton Agudosi is getting looks with the 1st team. Would make sense for him to replace Janarion Grant on the roster this week.

Tui Eli filling in at guard for Paddy Neufeld today.

Perhaps but I'd rather have McCrae taking 1st team reps on offence.

I like Agudosi on the first team reps.  I love McCrae as the full time returner for now.  If Grant is out.

Glad to hear Dru is back with the team, I hope whatever was keeping him away has been successfully taken care of.

there is no indication that he isn't...Agudosi is in for Grant...McCrae in for Lawler...

We had Agudosi as the starter for 3 games and McCrae for the last 2 games. Agudosi had less impact than McCrae. McCrae is faster, more elusive and more versatile as a RB or receiver.

I don't think Agudosi was horrible and he made some receptions. OTOH, I'm not so sure we don't take a look at Jones or McGhee as primary returners.

It was said that Agudosi is taking 1st string reps. It didn't mention whether McCrae was also getting 1st string reps. So yes there is an indication.

McGhee???  No McGhee on the roster.  I think McCrae will do well on kickoffs but punts may be a different matter, they might have to go for ball security over return ability until Grant returns.

you are only allowed so many characters on twitter..plus it right out said in place of Grant..

[theaardvark]

McCrae will be the returner, and as such, should concentrate on those duties. 

If used on O, he should come in for Olivera when we bring in an extra Olineman... (ratio)

He gives us more versatility on O as an RB than as a WR.

Agudosi adds a length factor to the Rec corps, and that will be beneficial.  Hopefully he has a big game.
