lol. Osh be oshin and booch be boochin. Honestly like you’re wrong lots dude. It’s ok to accept it.

huge get that dl is gonna be good again for them

Easy to be "wrong" on an Osh controlled team...he will bypass talent for other odd reasons..and thats fact Case in point..Clinton out performed all import lbs in various areas..and is untapped potential..and we went total status quo...on a failing team of last few yrs..explain As for Bailey.. he on roster even as last guy will offer a lot more than whatever Canadian osh will put on...and thats a fact too...but not shocking in the least

Yeah don't worry, I think that's a dumb plan too

MOS+KW have been together since 2014 and remind me when Danny Mac joined. Nothing lasts forever.

Special teams is still every 6th play in this league. You can't be ignorant enough to just look at a roster and go "hurr durr, so many linebackers." Half of those guys are special teamers. Put fullback beside 3 of their names if it makes you feel better. Having a guy with DL by his name on the roster who stands on the sideline and holds his helmet all game there just in case doesn't help us win anything. We have Gatkuoth to rotate in on the edge. I think it's fair to assume Younger has a plan to use Woodbey at 3 levels of the D. Our D is actually stacked. If people want to worry, worry about receiver and running back. Peterson looked like a stunned junior player in camp in the pre-season games. We're relying a lot on a bunch of Canadians who haven't been consistent or healthy across their careers (Nield, Cobb, Clercius).

He’s a guy we traded up to draft second over all. Hes a guy that was going to be signed as an imp before qualifying as a G. Lots of us were bullish on him, because even as he showed in pre season game 1, he’s got great strength and quickness. He and player where two of the best of a bad bunch, but didn’t get much pt despite brutal play in front of them. Meanwhile counting as a global on the thinnest dl in the league last year makes it pretty clear what would’ve been best. No one said he was guaranteed all star or great league starter. He was better than guys ahead of him but didn’t play. Now he’s gone, and we’ve still got korny and paper thin depth at dl. The young guy group at de are better then we’ve seen in a good while. but none of them are guaranteed to succeed. We have enough guys that 1 should flourish. But we haven’t exactly done a good job of front usage. Other teams go through our dl cuts, which people brush off because no one is an instant all star. But are other teams sifting through our db/wr/rb cuts? even ol doesn’t get looks. Lbers and dl cuts here get second looks in the league. Which means teams look at our usage of talent and say, “we can do more with those guys”

that’s true but I don’t see teams struggling to find good dbs, and our system has a lot to do with it.

Do we really though? To me this is a continuation of the problems this defense has had. Neglecting depth on the DL and dressing more linebackers than we really need.

we’ve seen more then 100% turn over in scouts from 19/21 to now. even with different scouts we see the same problems. For one, it’s extremely rare that you find a top contributor from scouting at a position of need. Generally, teams excel at developing/scouting/using a couple positions and the majority of their young talent develops at positions of strength. For two, outside of extreme outlier players/positions it’s usually the 2nd year players who take massive steps. This is where roster management kills us. You could have the right guys, but not use them/keep them and each year repeat the same struggles even despite talent brought in. So who’s at fault? well the staffs have mostly rolled over. Mos, walter, and mac are the remaining common pieces. Mos’ weakness exacerbates walter’s issues. mos is 100% at fault, and walters is also 100% at fault. no splitting it. That said, it is walter’s job to mitigate and prevent compound issues like that. I will say that I feel like we’ve seen a bit of growth this year getting away from some of the issues. how much and if it’s enough, will depend on how the rosters look in the first month. I will add that the camp talent level the two years is trending in the wrong direction. And I think danny mac’s’ position is too cushy for how high he is in the org. I think we had a lot of answers at the positions of need this camp. But I think our roster direction is Atypical and risky. 3 ni wrs, 3 imp ol, defensive front etc. The only direction if this doesn’t go well is whole sale change at high level positions. We’ve put together a very strong potential roster. If our old guys stay healthy and if we play the proper young guys.

I dont like but can understand the Bailey cut. Gatkuoth and Bailey were vying for the same role and we really need Gatkuoth's passport on that unit. In a ratio world tough choices need to be made sometimes.

Yeah. We find some good DBs and pretty much bugger all else.

I'm starting to think our scouts are garbage

The biggest problem I see is not the money or how things are divvied up- it is how little and how poorly TSN promotes the CFL compared to hoe they treat the MLB, NBA and even the PWHL. The way the Argos and Stamps promote their teams also could stand a LOT of improvement.

I fear we are mostly back to the same old, same old O'Shea roster.

Not seeing Singer on the active is a little strange....What else does the kid have to do to prove himself,,,,Frederickson I can see on the pr otherwise .....Didn't like the fact we dumped the Aussie kickers...The first game Sheehan starts effin' up and gets back to his shanking game I'm going to get a tad upset....I hope we're up for the CAL game ...Our regs haven't played much and will be a little rusty but hey, apparently Osh has all the answers

Can you tell me more about the SHARK and what it entails?

.....Hansen an Osh big fav.....He still talks about the 2 special teams guys Thiadric took out in the Cup game a few years back....Osh keepin' on keepin' on

Shitload of LB's and DB's though, both nationalities. Maybe Younger finally convinced the brain trust to go 3-3-6 primarily. Griffin/Woodbey as the SHARK.

A.i has never been or will never be wrong....yeah that seems legit. A.I and women are always right, just ask them.

He looked great in the *one* camp day I saw, but did virtually nothing in either preseason game. I’m more surprised that he was cut and the Korndog was put on the pr. How many dl does that leave us who aren’t American? Lawson, Gatkouth, & ? That honestly wouldn’t surprise me.

I mean we don't have a backup punter either. If Sheahan gets hurt we call in another of the hundreds of Aussie punters. We don't need to have a backup for every spot on the PR.

It looks like the available position player globals are our old friends Maruo, Hansen plus rookies to game play at DL yondjouen and miangue

"Nuts to that I'll just call Thiadric Hansen" - Mike O'Shea... probably
