Neg list NTs added is kinda what you do prior to signing them. Pretty damn clear signal of what we are soon to sign if you ask me. With all due respect, you have zero idea what J.Ceresna would agree to do. He played DE in Edmonton when they used 30 fronts. How is using him at DE in a 30 front at all unwise? It is the best use for him if you ask me. I have no doubt he would play little to no NT in a either a 30 or 40 front.

He isn't a nose. He could play some edge in a 30, but that is pretty unwise for maybe the best 3-tech in the league, who is also pretty advanced in age and had injury issues last year. 4i alone is a beating to take. Forget nose. The most nose he would play is in cheetah pack 40 fronts with an end rushing from the 3 tech spot. Which we have done very little of the last 2 years. Noo chance would Ceresna agree to come here to play nose, probably not even 4i.

You have to show you are as good or better than the man in front of you. Period. You don't get why we would bring in one of the top WIL Lbers in the league?

JSK, I don't get the move unless JY has dreamed up a defensive alinement with 12 linebackers.

Fun fact. The old arena had more seats so I’d imagine it’s less now than it was but apparently highest since the 80s. Maybe Montreal fans in Winnipeg are bandwagon ish. Habs are ok this year. Got some fun players in Hutson and demidov. But maybe we play them less now.

None of the DL we have signed are nose candidates. We have added some to the NL, but not signed any. Corney only got meaningful snaps when guys were hurt. Kongbo got more, but in roles not suited to development, Waggon was saddled to teams almost exclusively.

JSK is interesting. He’s better than Kyrie and Jones so I’d suspect 1 of those 2 are being let go or cut or traded.cuz Kyrie jones jsk Woodbey Ayers lb we just signed Kramdi plus Shay and smith and Novak seems excessive. Cadawallader Is a lb also Jones to Toronto. e5 Something gotta give there.

"Seeee myyy Vets, see my Vets, they're all aging like the rest"

It's okay, I'll run cover. Nothing to see here mods, we're just talking football, neuroscience, whistles and such.

They've cut their teeth on special teams. How else are they supposed to earn reps? How many reps do they get at practice?

For some reason, can't put a finger on it but not a fan of Brady and Matthew Tkachuk. Wierdest thing. Here's hoping the Canadian Men's hockey team (Josh Morrissey leading the way) pummels, annihalates, crushes, vaporizes, stomps who ever gets in their way of the Gold medal. Go high on Helle, give limited to space to KC to take his game away, NN says he slumps around this time of the year so nothing to do here. Once it's all over, Go Jets Go.

ICE isn't really seeking out specific people, at least not in their showy ops -- they're swarming people who, according to their small, smooth brains, do not look like Americans. This is why they are hated so much and why people in Minneapolis are following them around with whistles. (Please forgive if this is too much politics for MBB)

Haaaaaavvvveeeee you met Osh?

Why would ICE try to find specific people in a parade of "1 million". Wouldn't that be the least effective way of doing their job? However it may be the smartest move since 1 million people would be distracted downtown leaving the other areas empty and much easier to move in and move out.

That's where I see Ceresna in the 30. Will be interesting for sure.

I'll bring the popcorn.

I don't think we are going to run the 30 base. So it won't be too bad. But we still need bodies on the DL at every role and both passports. I know we have some good imp DL on our NL. We will see what floods in the form of rookies.

The question of who will MOS roster is legit. I am pretty stoked that Walters is bringing in guys that are legit enough to make him look foolish if he doesn't utilize them. No offense to J.Jones last year but JSK is a guy that if you keep him out of the lineup, then the HC has to draw some legit fire. If anything, it demonstrates that Walters is in control of who is getting signed again.

If you look at our DL roster as it sits, we have no Dts over 295 lbs. We have 5 DL under 250 lbs. And we have 5 guys who are 270-290. If we wanted to run a 30 base, we would need a couple 300lbs noses, maybe even a starter sliding lawson over, and some ends in the bare minimum range of 260/265-280lbs range. 4I, the edge in a 30 front is pretty brutal. It's very similar to playing nose, but instead of primarily working an undersized canadian C, you are always working the gap between the biggest imp tackle and a big guard.

sadly...I doubt he will.....again....and be our demise...Walter's so far has literally set him up with a no fail plan, but If there a way...I sure Osh will mess it up...TBD....And I say that as history has shown us that...over and over

Lawson is really good. Though his versatility between being able to play all the dt alignments are his greatest strength. The issue is, you need 800-900 snaps easy from the nose in a 30 front. Lawsons peak is 550. Even if he stepped up to the 800+ and held up, you need insurance policies and some one who can spell him. The whole off season is winding into the point of, will he or won't he, when it comes to mos finally rostering the best players.

We have signed a bunch of NT candidates this offseason through recruitment. I disagree on Corney/Kongbo/and Waggoner. All 3 got extensive playing time early in their careers and that was playing behind Westerman/jeffcoat.

Possible aslong as Lawson can hold his own.

In all honesty JSK is better and more versatile than Jones and Wilson at this point in careers...so this makes sense if he supplants one right off roster...and the guy he should is Jones...and allow the cdn rooks to get ..earn and maintain reps and also allow one of the intruiging guys brought in with serious upside a chance to develop...does Osh tho have the ability and moreso the acumen to see this and go with best combo based on skill..upside.. versatility?? God no...hes severely handicapped and biased in that regard

he is not a 30 front nose tech. Not in his prime, or now. He's a 3tech. If any thing in a 40 you'd slide him to the edge. He has played some snaps in his earlier days on the edge in a 30 and 40 in a pinch.
