To paraphrase Doug Brown, he's with his brother. They get to talk about each loss together and bond.

Those 5 are all ahl signings. Fagemo is interesting tho. 2019 draft round 2. Has some skills. Former kings do well here.

Always liked Mantha.

Justin Hardy

Slightly better version of Houston imo. Doesn't cheat as much, but isn't great. He played half a year last year, I don't think we will see much upward movement from him, hes 28 to. Dodged a major bullet. Yuupp. I get hes an electric athlete. But he isn't that guy and db isn't that position. The scheme was a big part of it. And the fact that teams kept throwing that way 1 because we had softer coverage guys, but also Nichols and Bond to the other side. I think he'd be doing similar to last year if he were here. But Edmonton D isn't like ours.

100% he was.

It's a long list, but off the top of my mind, Deven Thompson, WR/KR, would be an exceptional get. That guy is insanely explosive and a much better WR than you usually see from that kind of outlier athlete. Zay Paige, another diminutive kr/wr type. Denzel Mims is an incredible athlete with great size who was very productive in the NCAA. He went in the 2nd round to the Jets. He could be a real killer in the CFL as a SB. Garmon Randolph is a huge end who projects similarly to WJ, and was even a TE in high school. Shaka Toney is another great athlete with pretty good pass-rush skills. Bunch of guys in or through the XFL, and NFL TCs. Not as many early college career kids, it's a pretty mature list.

Schoen

crazy amount for a corner...well amy DB for that matter but especially a corner The Elks games I have watched haven't even noticed him popping off the screen either for most part....makes you wonder if he was the benafactor of playing in a solid group and scheme...he's a good db dont get me wrong...but not one the highest paid defenders in the league good tho

Thanks Booch. Agree with a rotation of guys. I did not know about the PR limitations due to Global designation I want to see Allen in as well at some point I really liked having Ford on our CB position - but you are correct - and in the cap crunch we are in - cannot afford the 185+ that he would have brought in.

It blows my mind that any GM thought that would be a good way to spend money.

yup....you should see a constant influx of guys untill you get that one who actually can push for a spot...we are ultra thin at WR...Case is there...but pffft....he's not good enough...are we waiting/banking that Wilson comes back....and we seen what sterns offers in 3 games...time to see what Mitchell brings and then keep the best of the 2....PR the other and dump Case i believe we can have a max of 3 globals on the PR that dont count toward the 10 man Can/American component...we have Bailey already....so Weitz really can be replaced...or not by any global and we should be scouring for them...I'd be looking for a kicker who can do all 3 jobs too if they wanna carry more than 1 He's been solid and not hurting us in any way....and should get better....I'd still like to see Allen get a shot too as he seems like a real play maker....that being said Bridges is more than adequate but you never know what you got until you give a guy a chance in a real game too...I'm sure we will get an injury where he may getbhis chance and never come off roster so glad we didnt pay up for that....185k would have been too much for the positin he played

230K well spent

i'd be bringing in true Nose's and multi use DT's for sure...a WR that has return experience and another rush end type....pure pass rush specialst

he wont change anything...even if it makes us better....winning games ...even early ones is fine and dandy and what we want...but also a bad thing as that just cements in his stubborn head that things are all good and the best version of us...and it couldnt be farther from the truth

Woah. Making the whole list available is something I never expected.

Pretty much. Week 6 is a bye week for us to. So hopefully Kelly and Makonzo can both be healthy for when they are set to come off, then use the bye week to get sharp. It's gonna make for some real tough decisions with the AR when both come off though. I'd take Hallett and Kornelson off. Or even stop dressing the 7th ol for one. But I don't think mos would ever consider 2 of those moves.

Two years is not bad. They’ve lost too much IMO however. I guess Ehlers is taking his time or is it what he is asking is not lining up with his production (including injury time) for some teams? I would think we’ll know by today.

Not sure how often this is going to be updated. Seems like teams change this list pretty often especially certain times of the year.

Pleased that we are going back to Vanterpool at guard. Didn't think he (O'Shea) had it in him. Seems to be more confident this season than last. He's got the easy assignment and picking up where Ford left off in terms of interceptions. Tyrell Ford's stat line for the seasons consists of 11 tackles and no interceptions.

What do you guys think of Bridges so far? I seem him jumping on some plays - time and experience to improve?

There is a point, especially if you don't think he will play in the first 6 games short of an injury. You can always remove him from the 6. I think we probably need 1 global on the pr, but I'd go digging through the cuts. Weitz doesn't bring anything. I think we need an air lift of WRs. We should be cycling them through to find guys who can step up. Because we have a bunch of guys who are nicked/playing sub 100% already, histories of injuries, and a lot of low-production guys. After that, we need more pass rushers. We have a few, but we are well beyond the best-before date on both WJ and Vaughters.

and then what positions would you replace them with? DT/DE/REC? or just rotate people until you can find players that could replace others?

Case...Weitz.....Ball off top my head..... Case aint gonna unseat any one...couldnt last yr....and there are way better options/bodytypes kicking around out there who could be brought in Weitz....well we only seem to wanna roster one global anyway....he isnt gonna ever be anything other than what he is....nothing...so we could try and find a different option there Ball...redundant....we have a glut of Canadian LB/DB/hybrid types....and he doesnt appear to be anyting but a ST plug anyway....can find those every yr in the draft....use his spot for a legit dline talent...
