  1. hes got to be among the best young men in this draft. And well spoken too. Cant wait to see his TC rookie posts on BB.com. ( i assume he will be the one doing it this year)
  2. jones and co could really take a lesson from that one lol.
  3. that was also a free pick though, for moving down from 6 to 8 and they still got grey. Agree with the teams in the top 6 for sure. Walters sure was on the money with saying most teams were gonna have boards very different from each other, and most would come away saying they got their guys. Montreal and TO left them self in tough spots with their trades. Still got some interesting picks though. Montreal i think actually pulled out a nice draft considering that. Id put Edm 1 Their top 3 could easily all be on the roster and have varying impact as rookies. bc 2, they had holes, they filled holes. With top tier talent in those positions. buono gonna buono. wpg 3. Top to bottom good picks that could have an impact. Expert manipulation to trade down, get their guy and still add value. If gray signs at some point, its hard to imagine our draft being any thing but no1 down the road. ssk 4 Judge and bladek are big pick ups for them. Auclair gives them futures. Picton gives em a good local developmental wr. Stocked up on big bodies which for them ran short the previous year. Auclair and judge are gambles. If judge sticks even for a year or two it cripples their value from this draft. Riders need ni help right away. Auclair is a gamble on a gamble too with his fit. Calgary 5. I like colling and i like his fit in calgary. Same with litre. Litre backing up messam is scary. laurensse with a late pick is a steal. Montreal 6. Shot them self in the foot trading away their first but got a nice volume of good young talent with up side. ^ I think all those teams won at the draft. Some will look a lot better or worse a year or three down the road. But what they had, what was available, and what they got is b+ stuff at worst. Didnt really like ottawas draft, though i did like the gamble on ankou. Hamm went off the board early but still got schram and scarfone. Like woodson and foster for TO, thought they went too soon on woods, especially over bladek and spooner.
  4. if you play at a high level basketball hardly has down time.
  5. im sure thats cus he went 1st over all.
  6. The push on couture and neufeld from this draft is huge. Hopefully it leads to a trade for newfie, and the best out of couture. Idk if we have had this much access to the amount of raw ni talent on the ol in my life time. Really exciting. Was hoping for a higher guy too, but they went just a lil too high. I like henry as an under sized chip on his shoulder type. Jfg has a big chance to step up this year. agree on the rbs. i was surprised augustine fell out of the draft. Dont feel like it was a position to adress though. Conteh, another local guy is gonna be nice. Has that upside we look for too.
  7. colling is similar weight to ekakitie but is 4 inches taller. If any one needs to cut weight its ekakitie. (i dont think its an issue though) More competition a lot less action. Spooner has a chance to be the best ol out of this group. But a better chance not to be in the league in 2 years then the rest in his range. Conteh is a good tweener, and good depth + up side. not like loffler though. That pick is probably the most ballsy of the draft. Amazing prospect at kicker/punter. Having him punt so medlock doesnt have to is ideal. Feels like we passed on guys with potential at other positions. But its got tons of up side. The point has just sailed over your head. There isnt a clear or large divide between the guys at the top of each position. There is no clear cut best dt, wr, ol etc. This draft is muddy as it gets. When did floyd become a pro scout / gm?
  8. Bc got the best wr, best dl, a top 3 ol, and herdman who you said is a starter right?
  9. IF you want to pick and choose different standards you could argue that none of those are true. Colling is more pro ready, luke might be too considering he fits the size profile. And has played a yard off the ball. whats the fly north rate of signed bonus guys? Spooner is top 3, if you go by potential. certainly not pro ready. How does conteh seem like loffler? He wasnt a impact player who had injuries. Hes a guy with limited experience. Also doesnt have lofflers size or athletic ability. The picks are interesting, tons and tons of upside. Potential wise, it could be one of the best drafts. But potential doesnt win football games.
  10. riders sickeningly did well. but right now id say the lions did better, and the eskes the best.
  11. Best dt? in the top tier for ones available, not decidedly better tho. best not available? no. best ol available? also no. Best db? no. We probably drafted the most guys who could start in the cfl if they reach their potential.
  12. by not wanting him probably. like the 58 time prior he was passed on. I like marouf late. thera likes to block maybe he has teams potential. Its an up side kind of draft.
  13. priority free agent
  14. weak isnt the word for it, imop. its diverse. no hands down top, little difference in talent in the top 3 rounds.
  15. hes also a good punter, and athletic. and in camp with the giants.
  16. hes got a camp invite with the giants
  17. yea pretty much.
  18. he loves potential guys. Real gamble picks. if any of these guys hit we get a starter quality.
  19. judges best 40 was 4.49 and his best vert was 42"
  20. He did, but he really only played one year. Competition doesnt impact much when you warm the bench.
  21. ready isnt a big barrier for entry to the cfl. A ton of guys are about to get picked who arent ready, and even who dont have a great chance at becoming ready. Talent, athleticism and size hes once in a generation type imop. (for the cfl draft) You bring in a ton of kids, you have to hope that your coaching staff and team can help bring out the best in him. Which we have the team and coaching staff for imop. Id rather bet on our team to help a guy with all the talent mature, then hope they can some how divine talent into a character type. That is how i am though. Faith who we are rumored to take has had questions of commitment n such as well interestingly.
