SASKATOON — Murray McCormick’s musings from Day 7 of the Saskatchewan Roughriders’ training camp at Saskatoon Minor Football Field:

• Duron Carter put on a show while warming up for Saturday’s mock game. On a corner route, Carter made a no-look, behind-the-back catch of a Bryan Bennett pass. The crowd loved it.

• Here’s a triple play of Murray’s Monsters from the mock game:

On offence, rookie receiver Jenson Stoshak was Murray’s Monster after recording four receptions for 67 yards. On Saturday, he caught two passes from Bennett and one each from Kevin Glenn and Vince Young. It will take a special performance to crack the Riders’ deep group of receivers, but Stoshak’s stock is rising.

Defensive tackle Ese Mrabure was the defensive Monster after intercepting a Young pass at the line of scrimmage. Mrabure batted down the ball and then hung on to it for the pick. Defensive tackles rarely make interceptions, which is more than enough reason to reward Mrabure with a Monster.
