I see Messam is back, how are they going to work both Boyd and Messam in same backfield. Nice problem to have.
You're forgetting about Charles as well. Wouldn't mind the Bombers seeing if they could trade for Messam.Quote:

Messam signed on till end of 2014. That takes care of him, what happens with Boyd?
I believe Boyd is currently still 2nd on the depth chart and Messam is going to be 3rd for right now. Wouldn't be surprised if the Esks make a decision on which to keep after a couple weeks. I'm guessing they will keep Charles and Messam.Quote:

But I won't be surprised in the next few weeks that some running back gets injured and they'll come knocking on the Eskimos door.
Interested to see what they do with all the backs. Don't know how they can carry 2 imports at RB, esp. when the back signed longterm is Canadian. See if all 3 are in the game?
Messam, Boyd, Charles, and Mccarty all had rushes in last nights game but only combined for a total of 11 carries. Meanwhile Joseph had 7. Its time for them to do something about it cause I imagine all the players are starting to get confused and angry with their roles.
^ Keep Messam and Charles and try to deal Boyd. I guess unless they just sit him and wait for a back to go down on another team then move him out.
