I like getting the national (Toronto) view, as it's an echo chamber in here. Top 4 look right to me though.

I don't think Nield is any way shape or form comparable to Demski... But I am concerned about Demski being rushed back. Hoping that's not the case but I guess we'll see. Supposed to be tremendous weather in Calgary on Friday, so no excuses there.

Oh my god, you guys still have absolutely no clue what you’re talking about, lol. Every single player you guys get all goggle eyed over turns out to be a total dud(Devin Adams, Brian Cole, etc etc). Womp womp. But please, keep acting like your poopoo don't stink and that you're way cooler than Mike O'Shea. Excited for the season, I think this our best team since 21

Lawler - This week, not every week.

That's the issue. I think Neild would be a perfect injury replacement for Demski that removed the risk of him playing on one leg or leaving hanging when he misses play-off games. That said, it doesn't work if we play the injured guy over his replacement.

We did have 3-4 candidates in camp, and we even signed Santos Knox to compete. Not sure where this fictional narrative of no competition comes from? Because TJ keeps winning the job? I get that Jones isn't at all adequate in pass coverage but he is great in the tackle box. JY runs his defensive scheme so that the MIKE really isn't in coverage except once in a blue moon therefore that criticism is kind or a red herring in our particular defensive style. I'm certainly not going to anoint TJ as a world beater on D, but he is not at all the poster boy for MOS loyalty. Look to the guy on his right on the depth chart and then Bearpants may have been onto something.

i’m not surprised, cfl media has been chomping at the bit to write our obit and bury us. Especially to once again crown the riders as the league cornerstone. blech. I hope we get to disappoint them. it’s not a huge issue. we aren’t talking jake thomas or kola level issue. I do think it’ll be a part of the usual roster management issues. injuries look a bit better than i expected. Will see how close to 100% these guys are

Randolph signs in Toronto. Toronto Argonauts sign Kendall Randolph after release from Winnipeg - 3DownNation

How so. You want a D that hall ran more than younger does. Younger ain’t running the traditional cfl D that you all want to run. He’s running some confusing hybrid D. He obviously values the versatility over dudes who just do 1 thing. If Osh is Oshin always then younger is youngerin. How am I the ****** when you can’t even accept that Garbutt fox and Bailey all sucked.

Well, I fully expect Woodbey to be on the field the vast majority of the time, so I don't think it's a huge issue to have a mix of skills on the field.

Ummmm yea.

AMSOIL Power Rankings: Who leads the pack ahead of Week 1? - CFL.ca Hahahaha, Edmonton? Really?

was it said what Vaval's injury is...he seems fine moving about...no brace/cast/...or bandaide lol we start 3 oline guys...BO...2 receivers and we only need 1 Canadian on defense any given snap which would be the way to go. And if you Nationalized WJ or Ceresna then you could get away from having any true Canadians on the filed for a snap technically We dont need to have mote than 1 listed on defence, if we have 6 on offense which we easily can without going 3 National receivers

They don't need to list Smith as a starter to rotate that way though. Doesn't matter who is listed as starter as long as they designate 2 Cdns on D and keep any 2 of Smith/Kramdi/Lawson/Gatkuoth on at one time

I am expecting Vaval to open the year on IR and Singer to be the primary returner week 1 but we'll have to wait to hear official word

yup Same with what we may do at center...Does an import center which would take away from a import from defense as well as make us start 3 Canadian receivers when he isn't really any better than a Canadian center make us a better team than starting a Canadian center, allowing for 3 import receivers, and having that extra American on defense, like you say at DT and allowing us to replace Lawson on reps with a stud DT as Smith and Kramdi make the Canadian quota on defence. And really if we go 3 Canadian Oline, BO...2 receivers and have the Nationalized American on defence we could take out a Canadian on any play and freely bring in an American whenever we wanted....so which option makes us a better overall team? It's amazing how one dumb move could affect the totality of the roster and make you weaker

Maybe because Jones keeps getting handed the job?

Good, is the most dangerous enemy of great. The biggest issue with the Lbers, is that by starting Smith we would gain a massive amount of ratio flexibility, that would enable us to be much more effective in another position group. Like the difference between Lawson rotating with Korny, vs Lawson rotating with an imp dl.
