  4. That's his best case, and that is a long shot.
  5. If you skipped the 2nd intermission you missed a great interview with Vilardi 😛
  6. Today
  7. Yeah but what do people think he should be doing with his life? We should fill a 3rd thread with comments about him just to be sure
  8. By serious, I mean some one will hand him a contract and pay him to show up to their camp, during which he will get 3rd-4th qb reps, play a couple pre season quarters, and if he is the 3rd best qb on the team they will put him on the pr after camp. Not a camp invite, not TCF, but basically what a prio fa signing would get. Thats his best case.

  10. I will say again, too many people have entirely too much thought invested in a guy who is at best a prospect. When he actually shows up the ln let's start investing time and effort into thinking of him, until then he really is a non-factor.
  11. he def has a pretty high value of himself.....why who knows...guess you got to like his belief...but cmon dude....Look at things realistically
  12. Yeah the NFL generally doesnt employ Osh type coaches who fall into that trap....and if they have a coach who does he is quickly kicked to the curb Elgersma on his last gasp, and being a camp arm at that combine is hardly a gasp...If he was smart he would immediately after it is done, sign up here and start his ELC clock and get on with his best chance for a sustained career
  13. I totally agree. Teams have their top 3 QB spots picked before TC even opens imo. Maybe there is an open competition sometimes for QB3 but even when that happens most of the time the winner is replaced by a recent TC cut from another team. UDFA QBs have a very tiny chance of sticking, one that was developed in the CIS...even less. Elgersma's only remote chance is that some coach falls in love with him for some reason, and that is highly unlikely.
  14. Jets showcasing Stanley with 25 minutes plus of ice time he might get us a 1st plus.

  18. What a beauty setup from Schiefele. A little bit of luck but Connor buries it. Tie game!
  19. That was a brutal giveaway by Stanley. And after Sawyer was pumping Comrie's tires all pregame.. he lets in one of the shittiest goals I've seen in a long time.

  21. A battle of the ‘heavy’ weights. Hope KC scores 8 goals tonight. :)

  23. we are back from the Olympic break with 25 games to go (or is it 27 I don't remember if a couple more were added), nice to know Fleury has been scratched (it's a good sign considering the injury) however 2 have not recovered and Morrissey got hurt in Italy 9 pm Start time TSN 3
  24. boy do they have the chance to do the funniest thing ever while the Jets are in town, but I don't think they're that desperate
  25. How serious? I doubt he would get any opportunity but to be an extra training cam,p arm. The guy is in desperation mode. . Nathan Rourke had a dream game with the Falcons & what kind of opportunity did he get? Nothing.
  26. Shouldn't Elgersma be at the UFL training camp or something? Now, he's dicking around Birmingham?? Lol. Yeah, he's starter material for sure.
  27. Yesterday
  28. that was quick TVLineSterling K. Brown's Paradise To End With Season 3 On Hulu...Will Paradise end after a potential third season? One of the show's Powers That Be says it's likely
  29. Elgersma didn't do much in that pre-season game. He ran a mostly high % short yardage passing game. The numbers look good but I watched it and he was nothing speclal. It was one read and out of his hands kind of stuff.
  30. Hes 28 though. And not the prototype like elgersma is. Or have the stand out pre season performance. It doesn't guarentee any thing, but at his age, he would get another look for sure. Im really high on Bailey. He should've been on the roster most of last year. Not only can he be a good rotational piece, he's a good teams guy as well. He will. A bit more polish down south and he might get here ready to be a qb3 going into a camp.
  31. The thing is that you can only keep so many guys on the roster and futures can definitely be helpful sometimes when roster spots are limited. Is a 3rd rounder likely to come in and beat out any of your incumbents? That's the question you ask, if not then a futures pick can be the smart pick at that position. Lots goes into the equation, whats our roster makeup currently, what is our projection for our 2nd and 3rd year NATs? How deep is the draft? One shouldn't think that Elgersma is a flyer either. He is a guy chasing a dream that is going to end up here. A NAT QB with a high ceiling and a high probability of being in the CFL sooner rather than later is NOT a flyer. So, in short I agree with your assessment that rounds 3-4 you go realistic fliers, and then hail marys after that IF the draft is not deep or you don't want to draft someone just to have to release someone of equal talent already on your roster.
  32. I wouldn't be surprised if the Bombers took a futures pick with 20 or 24... that's the range you take a "realistic" flier (like Elgersma)... especially with 9 total picks this year... round 6/7 is for the hail mary future pick... like Gio Manu
  33. Elgersma will be here eventually. You guys are getting panicked about nothing. Best thing that could happen for us is that he gets another NFL camp to develop.
