    Does Rolle fit in better on the other side where Greenwood plays?

    FWIW, coach said that Owens probably wouldn't be back this week so, for now, looking at ways to keep Spencer in the lineup is a moot point.

    Key to the game is covering Walker.

    In addition to Isaac and Gillanders, who were expected, Jason Vega has been added to the IR and Branden Whitaker is now "Disabled". I forget what that actually means.

    New guys Bonner and Zaleski have been activated, along with Josey and B Smith.

    It looks like Walker will get some reps this week, since he's the only backup DE we can dress.

    I believe that it means that the player sustained a non-football-related injury that is forcing him to miss time.

    Key is to get a quick start this week, we can't depend on a late comeback against a good Defense.

    Well, the backfield tandem of Kackert and Whittaker lasted one whole game....I guess Josey gets back on the roster. Hope a week on the PR did him some good.

    What is the nature of Vega's injury? I liked the rotation with him rotating in.

    With the Hamilton loss tonight, the Argos have a chance to get ahead in the standings, a great opportunity with 2 head to heads coming. Going to be a tough one and will be determined by our defensive front 4 causing pressure and confusion for Franklin.

    Depth chart

    For whatever reason, King is listed as the starter at LT. Zaleski is listed in Gillanders' spot; if he dresses and plays, we'll know that he probably *was* acquired as a position player rather than as a LS.

    Perhaps, but would it be too much to ask as a fan to know how your star players are injured? Same with Vega...an established player who just quietly goes on the IR. Any other team in Toronto has a player sustain even a minor injury, the fans will hear about it. I think the Argos lack a good communications department and have for years. Things like this does not help the Argos reputation.

    It seems that the one or two reporters that cover the Argos actually has/have to ask the particular injury-related questions when talking with Milanovich, otherwise the information isn't divulged.

    I wouldn't say that the Argos are the only professional sports team that prefers to be discrete about injuries. Oftentimes in hockey you get the proverbial "upper" or "lower body injury" explanation.

    When I was at walk through on Tuesday, I personally didn't notice anything amiss with Vega.

    Looking forward to seeing Cam Walker finally get in a game for some spot duty and experience. I think he is going to be a good pass rusher when he develops and fills out a bit.
    Also thought Steele would be ready by now instead of Josey. He is needed on Special Teams. I never saw anything that indicated Steele had a serious injury.

    Milanovich sounds hopeful that Bonner may turn out to be a good one down the road at OLB or DB. Wonder where Matt Ware is these days.

    Vega has not really set the world on fire as a RE this year. IMO Gillanders will be missed on STs.

    my depth chart comments for what they are worth:

    - looks like Whittaker is still out, I know everyone loves Kackert (myself included) but I hope that isn't serious - Whittaker has been great for us and was a beast in our "home" win vs Edmonton to open the year
    - the combo of Greenwood and Gabriel being back has really solidified our tackling IMO. Two great tacklers given we definitely had some issues in that area (especially in their absence)
    - curious to see what performance our D-Line puts in this week. Feel they have been coming on strong as of late after a slow start. Hopefully Cummings plays like last week
    - similar to whittaker - hopefully Chad Owens isn't seriously hurt. Love watching Spencer play though - what speed!
    - would rather see Spencer returning kicks and punts then Jefferson but guessing by the way Milo is, he feels Jefferson has surer hands.
    - I've been casually following the Jarriel King - Bruce Campbell battle for the starting LT job all year (King was hurt at the onset I think) - seems to have been back and forth when both have been healthy although typically King gets the nod.
    - really really looking forward to what our 3 rookie receivers can produce tomorrow. As much as I'm enjoying this year and what Trevor has done, imagine Ricky throwing to these guys - yikes! guess it may be wishful thinking this season though...

    Like in week 1, expect the Argos front 7 to feast on a below average Eskimo O-line and disrupt this kid Franklin. However, I expect him to rollout and connect on long passes seemingly at will like has been happening all season to our secondary. But in the end, it just won't be enough to defeat the 1st place Argos.

    I guess we found out he was sick after we had already submitted our injury list and therefore needed to "disable" him to make room for Josey..?

    Not an encouraging start. The Argos tendency of allowing 2nd down conversions continues.
