yeah he was very assignment sound and the perfect compliment kind of guy

Vega wasn't a great pass rusher but he did a lot of the other things really well. Yea...his career was way too short.

I thought Jenkins and Jaworski showed a lot of promise in their brief appearance last year. People also underestimate Lawton He's more than decent - especially if he has some good linemen beside him You know Ceresna is going to draw some double teams allowing other dl to shine Am looking forward to seeing this group play

https://deadline.com/2026/02/lauren-chapin-dead-1236735604/ Kitten on Father Knows Best I haven't seen the show but I heard a few Radio episodes during Radio Classics (I don't think CJNU had the rights to FKB anymore as they kind of changed the format after the old host took a leave of absence)

Jason Vega too until chronic injuries derailed him...actually was just chatting with him yesterday, looks like he could still play...pretty sure he not even 40 yet thing is...even in that crap league he gonna be buried behind guys with U.S ball experience...Dude is just flailing at things now and is getting horrible guidance from his management team

Jackson Jeffcoat was not chopped liver either

Throw up emoji.

Nerrrrrrrrrrddddddssssss

We need to find another Philip Hunt and even Tom Canada. Used to bring tons of strong DE and DL in but guess schemes changed? I dunno but hopefully a few of these guys step up and take jobs. as for Elgersma, his US agent is a moron.

And KFC declines the invitation to go to the White House. KC not a happy camper about the Olympics.

We have last year's UFL MVP coming to camp, that's how much lighting it up in the UFL is worth.

A whole lot, yeah. Maybe if he lights it up in the UFL he would get a serious look. Short of that or coming here and doing the same, I dont see it happening.

It would take a lot of injuries. There are a crap load of former 2nd, 3rd, and PR QBs currently out of work that would get the call ahead of him. Heck last year the NFL even pulled Rivers out of retirement before they would look down their depth charts and FA's. Injuries is not a viable way into the NFL for Elgersma.

Over the last 10 years not one QB invited as a combine arm has been in an NFL training camp the same year.

it’s not an official combine invite thing, it’s an extra combine arm to be used as needed. If some one pulls out of throwing, gets hurt, or they need extra tosses and don’t want to over work guys. A decent few qbs these days elect not to throw at the combine. Instead throwing in friendly confines to guys they know and can rely on. But this generally isn’t known until right before the combine or during. So you can end up in a position where you need a couple extra arms to do a full work out just to keep the wrs busy. It is not like he’s going to have his performance graded and considered with draft prospects. It’s the most basic level of exposure to the nfl scouts you can get. It doesn’t hurt him to take it, but he also isn’t riding it any place. It’ll still be if he can get reps in the ufl and the weight of the partial pre season game he had, that decides if he gets an invite to camp with some one. Or if there’s a mad rash of qb injuries.

so, this is what's replacing Peavy Marton my end....too bad I'm out of shape and have been dealing with arthritis for almost 20 years

Helle receiving the presidential medal of freedom from Trump lol.

too bad for him, but may be good news for us. Depends on his mindset if/when he arrives (NFL hangover?)

So I checked NFL.com for a list of the invitees to their combine. As expected Elgersma isn’t even listed. I hate to use the term but his throwing for WRs is a real Hail Mary. Just wish he’d acknowledge reality and get his CFL career started.

I checked google clicking the maps they say it's going to open next month (exactly when I don't know hopefully by Spring Break) and it will be in the Old Navy Building on the St Vital Mall lot. I hope we get an exact date and I don't get strung along like Arby's did to me for more than a year

Bombers signed this guy.

Pretty much 2 guys being used to not have legit guys get hurt throwing.....He will get some bad guidance tho and waste a good portion of his summer waiting...doing a workout here...or there...maaaaaybe a mini camp or go to an OTA...and at same time earn zero dollars....and that be that...show up in 2027 2 yrs delayed and behind in development Or he sucks up his pride and is up here post labour day...gets on the PR and starts to learn things...maybe get on roster back half of yr and then can be a legitimate participant in 2027 camp as a possible QB 2 candidate....

Elgersma is an NFL Combine arm just throwing the ball. Will he get looks? Who knows. I do know the other qb there was a 2021 draft pick. Will he get a look as well?

Let's be honest....the NFL hasn't exactly beaten down his door. A couple workouts to stay in the good graces of his agent probably. For the life of me I can't believe he can't see the forest through the trees yet. Does he seriously think he's going to be the first CIS QB to crack an NFL roster, in what...like a hundred years? someone is blowing sunshine up his arse and he is eating it with a spoon, and that is unfortunate.

The learning curve is small for the DEs and DTs, sure there are some nuances they can pick up, but if a guy can disrupt he can display that very early in his CFL career. We have not had anyone of that ilk up here in years. Will a bonafide DT/DE get better over time, for sure, but if a guy can't display the basics of the pass rush right off the bat there is no use wasting out time and we haven't and other teams have occasionally tried our guys out after we release them or don't re-sign them and have come to the exact same conclusion. Bunch of ham and eggers. Our recruitment needs to be a crap load better on the DL. That being said, the guys we brought in late last year show some actual promise. Instead of pretending that duds like Fox and Garbutt were somehow reasonable starters. Rotational AT BEST, and we need starters and not just starters IMPACT starters. Had we "developed" them properly that was the ceiling for them.
