There is a pattern, Zach likes playing with smart intuitive receivers that are tuned into what the defence is showing, not so much the dumb ones who just run their assigned route regardless. Yes, he won't be a FA till next year.

Don't we retain Wilson's rights and ELC?

Looking at our neg list, loic fouonji is un signed going into camps, but he’s raw. Under 1k in 5 seasons 5 starts. Florieia is in camp with the browns. Lassiter is with the jags. Max mcleod is with the broncos. Zay Paige is available. Reggie Roberson is with the titans. Kaedin Robinson is trying to force an extra year in college. Deven thompkins is with the panthers. Seems like we are mainly going to be waiting for nfl cuts at wr, but we might not see any one with their pr size. Alexander Hollins is on the ALs pr. I’d even consider poaching a guy like Dorian Anderson off the Argos pr. A few other vet WRs have washed out like Bailey we could look at. Our wr core was handily underperforming a few years ago early on. We brought in namaan and suddenly every one was playing like their jobs depended on it.

He likely would say the same of any wr. But maybe his preferences are steering our decisions at wr too. Much of the organization was head over heels in love with McKnight as well though. Guy was too small for the speed/skill set he had and we kept running him out there expecting him to do in games what he did in one on ones and none padded practices. And it wasn’t happening. At this point, give Bailey a call or who ever you have to. Maybe make a trade. If it’s not air lifts, and our ability to scout/develop/utilize WRs is not great, it’s gotta be some thing. What happens if just one of wheatfall, clercius or Demski get hurt? Let’s be real, Demski won’t be healthy for the whole rest of the season. That’s an inevitability each year. When sterns and Case are the best we can do this early, it’s worrisome.

Yeah it’s multiple mistakes layered. The miss on letting Lawler go isn’t gigantic since it was an over pay, but it’s heavily worsened by all the other mistakes and misses. The cap going up makes Hamilton pay more reasonable too. Not airlifting in WRs over the bye was a mistake, and not having started now that schoen is on the 6 is another. We keep compiling mistakes, and bad judgement. We do it at de, and wr. That’s not just mos, de is more mos, wr is more Kyle. After spending soo many years offering top dollar to free agent elite WRs and getting scorned endlessly, it’s odd that we developed one and let him walk for not wanting to pay elite money, twice. Lawler isn’t just an elite tier wr in the cfl, he’s in a class all his own when it comes to hands. No one else is out here mossing guys at will. That’s our out imo. If we get him back. If some one else offers him top dollar are we really gonna chase? If we do how messed up would it be to pay him and not lawler? It’s not an admirable position. We have to get him and it has to work out or Kyle is gonna chalk up another L. Wheatfall, Wilson, Demski, and clercius offers a lot of promise. If schoen recovers a decent chunk of his former play then we are in a good position. Problem is we really need the next guy up for schoen too in the more likely scenario that he isn’t there quickly.

nah....once he is back to a good yr post surgery to have his running game back to what it was...and it will be...and reps reps reps with offence seeing the things he needs to see live...I see much higher ceiling yet not necessarily....he will cater or try to add/retain players the HC wants...I think issue here is Walter's listens too much to Osh and doesnt reign him in with his wants and asks... Walters and his staff have brought guys in and many have looked good...and yes it's pre-seson but still....many vets kept have looked bad...or didn't even participate but were basically handed a spot and age and athleticism and technical skill too has to be in the player evaluation, as well as projecting 1..2 yrs down road where they could be...we fail in that regard Tail wags the dog to much here...needs to change so did the marine..Jakee...Kolo...Scmeck...Korn....amoung others....and some guys were kept on PR ...some almost 2 yrs and didnt get a snap....means not a hell of a lot worst in league and it not even close he is run of mill average...and will never be a game changer...I could go down south and scrounge several guys up that would be very effective moreso than him....he'll prob catch 4 or 5 balls and people will think wow...we got a winner here....but any pro should catch a ball thrown to him at this level for most part...it's what they do with it...and how they effect room for others...havnt seen him show anything in his 2 yrs here to think he's worth 2 yrs of being here he'd say similar of any receiver and really....dont care what he thiks...doesnt mean success and wins....see how he raves when its live fire and not skelly

He played under 30 snaps at receiver last year. He was targeted twice. He was on as returner. Most reps in Toronto the game when they got stuffed on 3rd and short in range to kick winning FG. He's 5'10 with giant hands. Mitchell is 6'1 and has 1/4 inch smaller hands. Better 40, better shuttle, better bench. You watch how South Dakota used him, all levels, but especially for vertical shots. Lined up all over, see him winning on every single type of route. Everything on Case is about how he competes. Everything on Mitchell says "lacks focus, discipline, doesn't play fast, concern with maturity level, too many focus drops, non-factor as a blocker." We need some reliability honestly. Demski can't be the go to guy. Be nice to see Wheatfall step up, and given the opportunity to get more touches at all levels. Clercius is what he is. If he's getting double digit targets we're probably ******. Nice release valve, 5th target. Get some YAC, screen game going along with the vertical shots. Everyone going to sit on the vertical stuff until we beat zone.

Clercius

J sterns

He made it last year as well....and in his opportunities when they needed a rec to step up in a big way...he didn't.

I actually think the depth is OK, it's just how the roster is built that makes is seem bad. OL I think is OK and DL again is more how the roster is put together more than anything else.

Zach provides his opinion on Case and Stearns.

You know what I welcome another theatrical Barbie movie but it might not be as good as the movie we got a couple of years ago (but it should be better than any of their straight to video efforts) https://deadline.com/2025/07/barbie-animated-feature-illumination-mattel-studios-close-deal-1236461077/

It turns out RogersOpen and ShawOpen really are going away I was at Rogers trying to get a case for my mothers phone and wanted to surprise her by getting a code into one of the opens but the guy told me that it would be pointless and it will be going away all because they said that "There's not enough demand for it" tell it to the people that do use it and don't have unlimited wifi. I thought it was only going to be for freedom mobile users.

They better have a good reason why the 911s aren't back til the middle of October https://tvline.com/news/abc-fall-tv-premiere-dates-2025-911-greys-anatomy-1235466281/

Id take it, better than the Winnipeg Rough Riders or Roughriders

I'm willing to give him a chance, but I am not particularly optimistic.

So did such underperformers as Josh Johnson. If I'm wrong, I'll admit it but right now I stand by my feeling that he's not a quality CFL receiver.

We absolutely need to bring some guys in at receiver. Our receiving corps is sub par.

For when Wheatfall gets hurt.

Why waste energy pre-judging, wait and see what he does, he made the team for a reason.

At the end of the day the GM is the guy who offers the contracts. The fact that Jake Thomas or other long in the tooth guys are still here is 100% on Walters. I could give a crap if MOS wants these guys, sometimes as GM you gotta save a coach from himself. I look at his body of work over the past 3 years and I see a big fat F grade for Walters. Our depth is suspect, our OL and DL are average at best, and our NAT content is deteriorated compared to when we were the envy of the league. That's on the GM. I'm not trying to give MOS an out with these comments either, he needs to be better.

1. Every player in the CFL has a highlight reel like this. 2. He failed to make a catch during his one year in the Big Ten. 3. He did little in his three games last year. 4. He did little in either pre season this year or last. 5. Its not even like he was standing out in camp this year. The guys we kept hearing about during camp were Wheatfall and Myron Mitchell who we cut. So add all that together and I see little reason to be excited by Case or to expect that he is going to step up and be this big weapon for us.

Why is Mitchell still around, then? To pull pranks at practice?
