Offensive line:

Import DTs Jerome Davis
and Jon'ta Woodard

Non Import Guards Fabio Filice,
and rookie Cedric Gagne-Marcoux

and Non Import Centre Marwan Hage

Starting Front Four on Defence.

Non Import DEs Jermaine Reid
and Nautyn McKay-Loescher,

Import DTs Quinton Caver
and DT DeVonte Peterson

Quinton Caver is an import linebacker.

There must have been a slip of the pen

or the copy writer slipped up

or does the Spec employ one anymore?

Who will actually start at DT?

Caver is playing on the line I dont think at tackle but probably at end. Yes he is an import lineback but so was Cotton and Cheatwood.

Caver was brought to Hamilton specifically to compete for the rush end spot. They see him as a possible replacement for Cotton or Cheatwood. McKay-Loescher already has one of those starting rush end spots locked up. Caver or Reid will probably take the other.

One would think Devonte Peterson (who I'm surprised the Cats even brought back this year) will have to show something tonight, or he will be in jeopardy of becoming a backup to either Dunbrack or Bekasiak at DT. (or maybe even an eventual cut)

In particular I'm looking forward to see how McKay-Loescher, Caver, Reid and Bekasiak play on Thursday.

Wasnt Caver listed as released a few days into camp.
When was he un-released? Didnt Kenny think that noteworthy. Did he even notice?

According to RFTT, Caver was away to deal with something personal and was back at camp because he took care of it. Guess KP missed that one.

Yes he was released after the second day of camp. But what is even more baffling is why he’d list a guy who’s 220 pounds as a defensive tackle. I think the Spectator needs to start some kind of drug testing.

That’s good, i had high hopes for him when he signed. I thought he was released because he showed up out of shape or something.

Thanks,BG.
Call me fussy but this is the kind of info I find useful as a fan instead of, I dont know, asking import players if they know where Winnipeg is?

But what is even more baffling is why he'd list a guy who's 220 pounds as a defensive tackle.
Who is 220 pounds on the line?

All-time Ticat great Vince Scott was a 230-pound defensive tackle. Mind you, that was 1957, not 2007. :smiley: :wink:

Nothing surprises me about Bengal Bunker Man. Par for the course. LOL

Oski Wee Wee,

Zontar, you are right, the Ticat media contact person
can only tell the media people about these changes
if they are around to notice them and think to ask.

I noticed Quinton Caver, who had been on the roster,
was back on it and he assured me that it wasn’t a typo

I didn’t think to ask why he was off the roster, BG.

Maybe the team had their reasons rather than
the player having personal issues to deal with.

There are a fixed number of players
allowed on a CFL Training Camp roster.

Maybe he pulled a muscle.

Instead of having him stand around
picking his nose for several days
taking up a TC roster spot

Maybe they took him off the roster

to get another player who plays
his position on the field,

especially since the team
is not set on the D-Line.

The Cats seem to have plenty of players
readily available for Training Camp this year.
