Even though Boerigter is another tall WR, no one knows how he will perform under this offense and in the CFL again after his injury. If anything, Brett Ralph is the guy that goes.
I agree ... taken from Denny Green, THhuman is who we thought he is.

He's doing his job and actually made some big time catches this year when called upon.

Nik Lewis is the 2nd best reciever in the league and the best YAC reciever in 5 years in all of the CFL (since Bo left). He talks to much but we are a much worse team if Nik disappears.

The answer is better X's and O's. Play to Henry's stregths and quit setting him up to fail.

I don't understand why we have to cut Thurmon. We still have another spot in WR. We will have:

Inside Receiver: Boerigter, Nik Lewis
Outside Receiver: Copeland, Rambo, Thurmon
Non-import receiver: Markus Howell and Brett Ralph
Running Back: Joffrey Reynolds, Wes Cates
Fullback: WE NEED someone to help Reynolds get more yardage and also help protect the QB. Bring back Dave!!

Interesting side note to this in the Sun today, they said near the end of the article about Bo that Dickinson might want to come back to Calgary as well.

We can sign Jerry Rice in his prime and we still would suck, because of Henry Burris. The guy is on eof teh worst starting QB's in the CFL. He can never win the big game, he collapses under pressure, we need Casey Printers and we need him here quick.

Is Glenn better than Burris?

what about Maas?

Allen and Calvio both looked pretty bad the last half of the season.
