Pokey for Schoen (if injured) no brainer
Houston in for Logan, another no brainer (Vaval takes over all returning)

Adams for Schmekel is a ratio issue, it has to be a two for two trade there
So Kramdi or Hallet back in for Woodbey

Which CB do you see Houston taking the place of since you aren't deleting either. Unless you are suggesting Vaval only works ST's?

If Schoen isn't injured, which other choice do you make?

Vaval only ST's, and backs up, coming in as the extra DB on those sets.

If Schoen is good to go, Mitchell is the preferred other option.  I don't like it because he's finally contributing, but the other option is Wheatfall, who can be more explosive.  Mitchell caught everything thrown at him, but Wheatfall got more yards, more YAC, and was our deep threat...  Wilson probably slots into Wheatfall's spot better, but MOS seems to be more of a LIFO guy, and Mitchell is last in

Have to give Logan more time, he showed he was a dynamic returner in CGY but even there he was often plagued by injuries. Mills carried the same stigma but seems to have overcome the injury bug this season and is still running hard.

It's not a matter of whether Logan can contribute more. He's shown in the past that he can. The problem is ratio, roster size and what is the best use of choosing our DI's.

As usual there are several choices to be made in that regard this week. Some choices are a direct 1 for 1 switch like Houston over a CB. The option of bumping Logan for Vaval is an off set of that possible switch. OTOH I thought Lawson would be the one bumped.

The bigger problem this week is what accommodation to we make at DT? If we add an import something has to give. Kramdi being able to play would offset that, but then Woodbey probably gets bumped.

Probably not but somebody is coming out. That might be Schoen but I'm hoping he's good to play. That means Mitchell is the most likely to be moved.

However I have suggested that Mitchell could bump Logan because he can return kicks and be receiver depth.

Some have made an argument that Mitchell could bump Wheatfall but his productivity has been good. Wheatfall has 563 yards versus 79 for Mitchell. Upside or not, that wouldn't seem be a good decision.

The secondary is woeful.
Collaros forcing the ball will be his legacy. On the convert where Schoen pulls up Lame, I believe the slot back was wide open.

We just dint have the horses

It was great while it lasted.  But you know when you know. I realize dominating isn't going to happen....but some of those left side linemen, are kind of embarrassing.

Secondary is average
Zach's legacy will be cemented as one of the best runs in Bonber history
Zach's touch on the ball is still pretty good
OL needs work but we have enough guys on the roster that are decent

Can't agree with much here.  Seen the doom and gloom story before pre dynasty and all we did was head to 5 cups.  Don't count us out yet.

Logan can be an offensive weapon when healthy, but right now he doesn't look fully recovered from his injury and he doesn't seem the type to be effective at 90% For a returner not having that half step is huge

Agree all, should be better in 2 or 3 games

A waste of a roster spot if he is still injured. If he is healthy he is just not effective, if it's because he is hurt sitting  him makes even more sense.  Roster management 101.

As much as you believe you have all the answers you don't

I'm on the fence on Logan but he is versatile and game action will shred the rust

Poor roster management, playing someone who is not ready to perform. 

If he can't contribute keep him out and play someone who is ready and can.

It's not rocket surgery, roster management 101. Sit until you are ready.

We don't have another returner other than Vaval so it's was a good decision to dress him

The rocket surgery comment will go down as one of the best ever on here for one of our classic posters who likes to have lines out while moving in a boat 🚢 lol
