    Receiver Turnstile keeps spinnin

    Wednesday, October 3, 2007 - 01:00PM

    EDMONTON (CFL.ca wire) -- The Edmonton Eskimos signed import wide receiver Maurice Mann to a practice roster agreement on Wednesday.

    A fifth round pick (149th overall) of the Cincinnati Bengals in the 2004 NFL Draft, Mann has also spent time on the practice squads of the Miami Dolphins, Seattle Seahawks and Minnesota Vikings where he dressed for one regular season game in 2006. Most recently, Mann attended the Cleveland Browns 2007 training camp.

    In two seasons at the University of Nevada, Mann caught 53 passes for 817 yards and five touchdowns.

    WTF? Are we the Ti-Cats the way we've been going through receiver prospects?

    sheesh.....
    Before you insult a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you insult him, you'll be a mile away, and have his shoes.

      This is a good thing, we need to upgrade in that area. No harm in bringing a guy in for a look see.

          Maybe Hoag was an all star at college but just wasn't cutting it in our league..? Anyone check out practices lately?

              We're going through receivers faster than Paris Hilton goes through vibrator batteries. Don't like it.

                if they bring enough in, one is bound to stick.....that said, they should at least give the guys a chance....maybe a week or two...

                  Considering how many receivers we've got on the limp (Tucker, Kamau, Acree, for three)...I'm not surprised at all.

                    My only thing is what is the point in bringing these guys in if we don't give them any playing time?
                    Blindly accept whatever they do and if it doesn't work out, I guess there's always next year.

                      Writing is on the wall for Gaylor if this is the case.

                        Sorry, at risk of a personal insult.....are you crazy?

                        If we can't find one guy to last two weeks simply as a depth option, just how do you figure that some no name guy is here to knock Gaylor out of a job?

                        Man, some of you guys really have Trevor on your shyza-list, but puh-lease use that thing above your shoulders.....

                        I'm surprised you're not clammoring for Simmons.......

                              if we're going to bring in some NFL nobodies....we might as well get an ex-Cowboy, for no other reason that because some of our best players have played there....

                              i.e. Kepley, Mobley, Tucker.....
