Imagine if we could get down to like 4 pitchers a game? With donaldson and tulo back, if our starters can get deeper into games this team is gonna be a real threat.

Idk i liken nates rants to more of the dave ritchie talk.
-
This is what ive gotten too. If he kicks like young jon ryan. But if he did and punts that well in college next year couldnt he be drafted by the nfl? Idk which would give him a better path to the nfl, here or college. If hes at camp though and spares medlocks leg some work for TC thats a win though. Considering we got that pick for free from going down 2 spots to still pick gray. He shows the promise and upside though.

Pretty much, sans the nate talk. Which i some times miss. It doesnt really seem that different aside from a nicer lay out.

Watt would be nice. I also like vaughan. Wouldnt mind having him case one of our 2nd year guys take a step back. Imop watt would be the better WR while JFG the better teams, blocker etc. -
The real issue is with how green he is. He played soo little in college its scary. Football smarts doesnt allways equate to report card smarts, but that how hard does he work etc all gonna be vital to see if he can stick. For our development guys we really seem to look past experience and the lack of it. Maybe thats the only way we see to get the tool set and up side at QB.
-
he actually took less to leave too. better and better, jose seems to be warming up too
-
It looked like the triple option offense really didnt fit well with him despite his speed. Seems more like a scramble to throw and keep the D honest type. Really good looking prospect to groom.
-
First class and no class at the same time. Even on the forums he gets no respect!

college listings are all too often hokum. Being 230s and playing end against tackles even in the cfl is a huge task. Gavin walls and joe the monster are the only ones i can recall that really pulled it off. Gavin was a thorough breed pass rusher and phenomenal athlete. And so was montford That was also a whole other era athletically. -

nailed it. What we need is gear that doesnt make you feel like the juggernaut when hitting but protects like it from hits. -
I dont think much of ontario, LV or ny either. I really dont think well of any that i can think of. Some are of course a cut below the rest.Fighting taxi cab drivers in mexico n junk.
-
who has a good commission tho? seems like they are all various degrees of bad. I really wanna see that re fight. If it stays NC and they re fight thats the best case scenario. This is probably the best card of the year, a nice change of pace.
-
From what i read on i think bloody elbow it is old rules. I bet poirier appeals and wins. Yeah its just awful. and on such a good card and such a good fight. They gotta get this stuff sorted out.

Football really needs an evolution of PPE around shoulders/head, and better protection of players. No easy answers, no one wants it to become touch football but no one wants players maimed either. And you cant deal with a problem until you admit its a problem. -
ugh, the not so unified rules and illegal knees crop up again and ruin a fantastic fight. I really wanna see a re match between alvarez and poirier.

Another win for the jays, and bautista is heating up. 7 pitchers tnite though. The jays bull pen is putting up way too many innings. 4 pitchers 1 inning worth of outs. carrera has really been mashing.
-
Reasonable expectations. Some guys get picked high either due to hype, extreme reaches, or weak drafts. A guy like jamarcus russell isnt a bust like ryan leaf. Russell was a horrible pick. A guy like ki jana carter is different because he just suffered some freak injuries and was never able to stay healthy. Same with bo jackson. Waggoner was that type to, was a good pro, never really got much of a chance to play on D and retired before he could. No chance he was gonna take a job from one of our starters last year. We had super weak NI talent and needed help right away. We got it from him, but only on teams. Not so much a bust, as a disappointment imop.
-
Hes like what 175 and 5'10? Seems to do a nice job of sinking his hips and running behind his pads at the line though. And with that quickness it makes him a hammer as much as a nail.
-
No doubt any time you watch him play you see a lot of bad tackling. Part of that comes from him being a guy who runs hard. He shows excellent quickness for the level. To the point he hits the hole going so fast he can run through arm tackles despite his size. Charles roberts esq. Dunno how he will translate to the cfl game. But hes the perfect guy to have in camp. Helps the grass roots, gives us an extra guy to run, catch, do some returning etc.
-
Cant find any thing on him retiring. CFL has him listed as FA. Did he play teams?
-
Another win tnite, aside from the first half of april jays have been better especially considering the injuries.

7.2 ypc last year. just sayin. Normand never looked bad running the ball. He did have a bobble a pass or two however. I think the issue is adaption and use of the offense. Not personnel. 2 of the top 3 rushers in the league were NI last year. When you get out side the top 5 I dont buy one bit that those teams wouldnt have been better off using a NI rb. Teams still perceive it to be a spot to use a imp, even though rb usage is soo low these days. Guys like shaq murray lawrence, lafrance, and anthony coombs get modestly better treatment then NI qbs. Big body backs like lumbala and normand show some flashes but remain under used. There seems to be a good amount of guys coming out who are athletic, H-back/fback/te prospects who get stuck on teams and forgotten. Id rather start a guy like normand, then half imp rbs thats started last year for various teams. Especially if you are going to run soo infrequently. These are the perfect guys to run on 2nd and 3 type plays, to pass protect, and block and release. I wonder what the last team to start a NI rb for most of the season was that did poorly.
-
Watching him run, hes really a first step/burst guy. Not a long strider. Which is even better at QB then a guy who runs 4.4 but relies on break away speed. Id say watching him he plays faster then 4.7 though he didnt seem like a great fit in the triple option. Could've. Almost certainly would not have though. Calgary was just miles a head of every one else in scouting him. Like we were with loffler. I really think we would have gotten the same 2 just higher up. That said we dont have the best record with supplemental guys. Its even more of a gamble then the draft. But as bad as our NI talent was at that point I dont blame them for grabbing a here and now guy rather then waiting a year. If a guy in the supplemental can make your team I think you are virtually allways better off taking them.

haha football made easy.
