Pretty sure Shonte was "Peoples" so definitely not related.

I don’t think he’s related to shonte peeples. Tremendous raw talent as a pass rusher and play maker.Didn’t play hs. Lead all of juco in sacks. bounced around colleges, didn’t put up the crazy sacks after he left juco but he did have incredible win rates and lead the conference in pressures. Has a motor that doesn’t quit. And makes a lot of plays in the run game. Hes smaller, but strong and extremely disruptive. Hes one to be excited about seeing in camp.

I guess because he's Canadian. He would grow the game here in this country. Imagine if he did come up here & established himself as a star & we played Nathan Rourke & the Lions? The hype would be epic.

And this is why I don't get people hanging onto him so hard. The list of qbs who don't make the leap to pro is huge. Until he's in camp showing well he's just another guy

Couple more neg list signings.

What's funny about what I said, rebusrankin? That exact thing happened to Nathan Rourke in Atlanta. The only dream I chase at my age is that a bathroom is close by.

What people don't realize is that a whole new class of graduating qbs are coming to training camp for 2026. Elgersma has worked out for probably 10 teams, so a third of the teams. These new kids have been drafted, are regarded higher & aren't free agents. Teams are prepared to invest in their development. Elgersma can sign with an NFL team, play better than the New Kid In Town & still get cut. Being a second year Canadian FA QB who has never had a home isn't the most enviable position to be in.

I think when we drafted Elgersma it was kind of a 'throw away pic' ... and it was 'loooong term' whether he would show up in the Peg at any rate...With that in mind, I would say we were prepared to let him playout his dream down south and wait until he and his agent make up their minds in which direction they want to proceed in....Looks like he's exhausted his first shots at catching on in the nfl ,and just a little more time till he makes the smart move and heads north.. ....I think we'll see him at tc and get to see first hand if he's got the talent to play professional ball and stick

Sure, so here's hoping we find out the verdict by him coming here. Doesn't work out so be it, no harm. Over the many years we've experienced our share of disapointment in QB's that have some and gone around these parts. Nothing wrong with holding a bit of hope that he may be one of the answers in our succession plan at QB.

A game might put IMG vs bishop sycamore to shame lol

Big time...I seen many a u.s high-school team that would own cis squads...no question

If they had the option, NFL teams would be going with HS kids over cis kids.

People need to also realize Elgersma has proven nothing...shown nothing to make a team want him in the NFL...but dominated somewhat a lil bit in the CIS In all honesty big flipping deal..he could amount to basically what all cdn qbs prior to him did...zero The most recent cis dominant qb ...Ford has shown exactly that...he ain't good enough Training and evaluation in the U.S is do specific and so detailed and investigated from so many avenues and by talking to so many people involved with a player it would blow your mind...I see it with the athletes I work with. Rourke got some legit looks and some legit playtime in TC and not just against other scrubs who had no chance to make it anyway...and had success but again...nfl politics were his demise...and he had pro game film after his first go around when teams didnt even wanna give him a qb look Difference...u.s prep school play...u.s college career...u.s legit chance albeit with the CDN bias against him...and he got punted and that was that Only other cdn qb i can think of...Palmer, who followed same path as Rourke had a limited existence but it also wasnt enough Sure a guy can chase a dream...but also needs to be realistic..a big arm...the prototypical NFL qb body type isnt a garuantee...there are so many guys who possess what Elgersma has coming out of u.s college with u.s football training that teams will always put first..and thats the reality. I also wouldn't hang my hat on him here in cfl to be this big success...why would anyone? Its a big jump to make...and if there was a legit thought he had it...he would have been PR'd all yr in the NFL.. and that didnt happen either And this pinning in Canada to almost force this idea thst a Canadian QB is needed and great is ludicrous too..who effing cares...find and or develop the best QB regardless...birth certificate should have no bearing on a position..best player should tho

Hard to tell, but I'm expecting a lot of guys to be vacuumed up from this class again. I think we would be lucky to see 8+ of the guys in the top 20 actually available in this draft.

Maybe Winnpeg goes after Darius Bell this upcoming draft? Played at East Carolina, ranked #12 on the scouting list, 6'5 300lbs, centre. Hamilton might also be an option, same with Saskatchewan and Ottawa.

Good to get the W. We'll see what happens against Florida.

Its ok, I sign all my notes HardCoreBlue and send all emails from HardCoreBlue@gmail.com.

Again. Lol See you in the remand center my friend along with @rebusrankin

I think Amanda Seyfried is better looking. I’m chasing her.

It'll be nice to date Julia Roberts again.

You have to keep chasing your dreams. Me, I am chasing the dream of landing a date with Sydney Sweeny. You got to believe!

Someone has to be the first. Honestly some of you need to stop fretting about the guy. He is chasing a dream, whether it's likely or not is irrelevant. When he's ready to come here get excited until them he's just another dude not on the Bombers.
