Quote from: Blue In BC on May 26, 2026, 05:26:26 PMI think Bailey makes the roster due to being a ratio advantage as a global player. He only has to beat out an ST Canadian player. We're also not deep at DE unless they flip the ratio somewhere to add someone like Dixon as a DI. We also traded to move up in the draft to acquire him, so there is that too.

The MCI question is valid after Daniels was added to the equation. There may not be room for all 3 initially so there is some doubt on what they do to start the season.

The injuries to starters is a concern and they may choose to not dress them as precaution. Until I hear otherwise I think all will be ready for game one and none of that group needs reps this week.

DD73 and MCI25 could both make the AR at the expense of one of the NAT LB corps... MCI is a ST demon, not sure if DD is yet, we'll see.  But that extra value can make the difference.
Unabashed positron.  Blue koolaid in my fridge.  I wear my blue sunglasses at night.  Homer, d'oh.

We only have 3 Canadian LB's from 2025 since Novak is injured so I don't think that's an issue. IMO it falls down to a call between MCI and Peterson for in game injury insurance.

I like Peterson and can just as easily see a role for all 3. However, if MCI has moved up the list on the depth chart at RB, then that's where a line could get drawn.

Peterson had more touches last week and was the least productive of the 2.

I'd like to see Daniels get at least one chance as a receiver to plant the seed to defences that he'll be a threat. Having a FB or TE that sees the ball twice in a season doesn't do that.
