Sort of. You have high ceiling vs high floor guys, and guys like Dru brown will always take polishing before they produce. But High floor guys do exist and are findable. Shea patterson came into the league in 21 and broke out in 24, dolegala was in one year and broke out the next. So they didn't just walk in and produce, but strev has to be able to produce. The mafia has become the Sultans of Stink. Decent, is a very long way from good. We ran a fast passing game back then with a balanced run attack, which helps the OL. Glenn, also had a fast release and elite ability to get the ball out when pressured (shovels, couple alley oops, changing arm angles, once even threw the ball with his off hand.) and blink was very similar. He was constantly met in the back field then would slip out and gain 5-7 yards. That is the most over rated OL in our history imo. They had every thing tailored to them and weren't dominant.

not a game, not a game… we talking bout practice It isn’t. and on top of that we do little more than theatrical walk throughs. It’s possible to make the most of of them, though not easy. so we just dont worry about it.

tremendous arm talent and athleticism. really good poise too. My concern with wilson is he doesn’t seem to have timing, touch/accuracy on intermediate stuff and I didn’t see him take any steps forward from last year. He’s one of those home run swing prospects. his ceiling is very high if he puts every thing together, but he seems far from that point, very low floor. For my money, Grainger has more arm talent and significantly more dynamic talent, and was only a bit more raw. We saw dru brown start off with a really low floor and high ceiling, but he showed significant improvement after every opportunity. Wilson not seeming to have any of those steps this deep into year 2 worries me. reminds me a lot of dom davis. That said he hasn’t seen action since pre season, but with how limited/low quality practice reps are now I have a hard time seeing him take a step forward. But, we don’t stand to lose a lot by giving him a shot. he Should've gotten reps in the last game. If zach isn’t at practice to start the week, we should see roster moves. one way or another we need to bring in another qb with experience in the cfl.

does he have another game in him though? do we go for concussion no4 this year?

Yeah, broxton was here for a bit. Plus dobson who is killing it this year. Yeah, I dont see a lot of teams pursuing our FAs this year though. hope fully we go back into buy/build mode.

Fajardos base deal this year was 180k, mbt 185k. Patterson in the off season was 88k. Iirc strev was in the 100-150k range with incentives that could’ve brought him up to 300k range. Given all that, I think you will usually spend about 900k on your 3 qbs in the cfl right now. With starters in the 400-600 range including starting incentives. I think established vets, high value qb2s market is in the 175k-250k range. with fringe starters in the 200-350 range. Obviously how much you budget for qbs 3 will trickle down. for us, i could see elgersma getting 150-200 with incentives and opt out. While what will happen depends a lot on zachs health, I think we will likely be in a position where we want to pay for a vet qb3. So for streveler, i could see 150k, if he’s bringing enough value. which would be fairly easy if you can take the kids gloves off and use him as a full on battering ram. That said, I think one of he and zach needs to go. so if zach doesnt retire due to injury, id rather go in another direction.

tbh if he isn’t gonna be a qb1, that’s what’s left for him. just a short yardage guy and where ever you can make use of him

you’re right. though it does take time with the same unit to get them to that point. and we see changes every other week. On that note, big props to yoshi for pulling his career off the scrap heap for a second time. he looks worlds better than the last 2-3 years here. Dobson too. dude is finally down to where he should be weight wise and not struggling to adjust to being lighter. We are like that bf that gets dumped then his exs become hot. The former bombers list of ol around the league would be the best ol in the league. If we finally jettisoned kola and either started wallace or eli, then ran with the 3 imps our ol would improve a lot.

yeah i mean if he’s not gonna be a qb1, you can just unleash him as a football player. Put him out on kick cover like we did with bryan bennett in the past.

look at how poorly hogan has used established weapons though, imo streveler stinks but hogan is awful. if you can’t run with brady and 3 imp ol, you can’t run an offense in this league.

vanterpool isn’t bond at guard, but he’s not far off. Randolph is good at RT, a lot better than early hardrick was. Them and lofton aren’t bad, and not the weak spot on our ol that’s for sure. if we went forward with them as starters our ol would improve. problem is really the rest of the old guard. wallace is developing too, and a bit better than what we stuck with in gray, dobson etc prior.

2nd 3 game losing streak of the year. Bcs win last night pulled them into a tie with us for the last spot in the west (we own the tie breaker) and bc has calgary next week. If edmonton beats toronto they would also pull into a tie with us. We’ve sure put our self in a bad position this year.

idk chris injury at the end of the game looked brutal. He might come to the realization that he doesn’t have it as well

it’s because he’s got nothing for a DL

course he didn’t

1 strev padded a lot in trash time, gave away too much to hamilton 2 Hogan another garbage game plan and play call 3 mos/walters for turning a historic dynasty team into… this. ch dexter lawson jr getting tackled by the turf twice on one play

oh man his knee yes

strevy passes 200 yards passing for the 6th time in his career!

dobson sure did lean out this year wow pitty play by hamilton

sweet sky daddy we are gonna end up kicking from our own end zone

soft af

here comes the cc

jake got turned around and put down by a hands team guy

lmao fat boi just looking around clue less

what’s this game plan too? we got a deepest route half the time of 8 yards
