So Whatever Happened to That DB We Drafted from WV?

He was up here in Winnipeg and got cut from the Bombers.

Basically all you need to know.

I was excited when we drafted him

Edit: his Wikipedia page says he's still here, so maybe he is. Also I saw Toney Clemons name and Darvin Adams name as well on the roster for this season. I expect both to make the team

It was a dumb pick.  I know that seems obvious in hindsight, but Hurney spent the 1st pick of the 4th round on a CB coming off of a torn ACL with a laundry list of off-field issues.  That's the type of guy that almost always goes undrafted.  To make matters worse, he spent the pick before that, the last pick of the 3rd round on the legendary Sione Fua.

He never fully recovered from his injury. To say he simply sucked and that he had a terrible work habit is a bit of a simplification of the situation.

Yeah, on that note, he clearly didn't suck the few times he played.

    • KC has a very good defense this year. It is 5th overall. Yes, still worse than last year, but their offense is considerably worse. Their passing D may be their "weakness" but they still allow fewer than 20 ppg. BY completed several deep passes yesterday, and he was able to threaten downfield in ways he didn't seem capable of before the benching. I'm not necessarily worried about his ability to connect deep anymore. What to me was impressive was that he did all this without a run game. We used the pass to set up what little running success we had. Wild.
    • Solid and fair assessment.   I will say, one of the big things I noticed yesterday was that he wasn't shy to step up into the pocket in the face of pressure.  He's trusting the IOL.  And they took care of Chris Jones yesterday.  We had clean pockets but also good success rate vs. pressure which just hasn't been the case with Bryce.   If he has more confidence the OL gets it done and he can navigate and step up for throws, that's huge.  It's one of the biggest things that's held him back.  He was previously bailing quickly and just too easily throwing away or making dead plays.     He was finding his 2nd to 3rd reads within structure/without bailing in the pocket.  That was nice to see, as much concern I have with him.  And the overall limitations will always be there. Time to back it up this week against the Bucs.  
    • Suddenly the Cowgirls look like our best chance for a win remaining. I think the Bucs are playing better than the Falcons of late.  Our lone game versus the dirty birds is in the ATL where we always struggle.  The Cardinals are marginally better than I thought they would be. We are not beating the Eagles, they are starting to roll. I'm saying two at most, next week at home versus the Bucs and the Cowgirls.
