  1. Tackles are not a success indicator at db. Even at lber they still aren’t. Dl? Sure. You can have good tackles and bad tackles as a db. If you are having an extremely high volume of tackles as a db it is a sign of a problem. A big chunk of their tackles are runs into the secondary and down field completed passes. In holms case, he has always played in the trail position a lot. He uses his acceleration to get back in on plays and previous put up a ton of pass knock downs. He didn’t do that last year. He was coming over and helping get stops on other targets sure, he was also tackling completions for first downs on his own guys a lot. With the overall secondary as good as it was last year, Kramdi and holms spots got targeted more. Nichols has been the best tackler in our secondary since bas gc injury. A db with more tackles then him is not succeeding more. Doesn’t mean Kramdi and holms have to go. Holm needs to gauge his gap better this year so his close is putting him in place to prevent a completion rather than make a tackle attempt. Kramdi needs to capitalize better on his instincts and play with in his skill set more on pass downs.
  2. Qft. Good week of kick off games too. Brown vs ssk, tor vs mtl, and the wannabebombers vs the vaj stampers.
  3. He played a good bit in 3-4 games last year. He improved from early on but just kind of got to average. Didn’t show any thing special. Love to be wrong about him just don’t see much.
  4. Hes really only gotten chances at guard, not C. He sure has bungled those chances though. Hes barely played C since the end of 21. His snapping is fine, just not in practice enough imo. In general the snap to the pistol should not be difficult. Not like the old days of snapping to shot gun. Wish we never lost couture.
  5. Team wise I think it does offer an opportunity. More prep time for strevy rookies etc. Parker has done every thing but stay healthy. Love what he brought before the injuries. If he’s similar to what he was before it’s going to be ba esq.
  6. Seems like it. I'm very curious to see how the roster shakes down for week 1. Is Griffin staying at Dime as a DI? If he does, who is going to KR? How are we going to work the imp Lbers? Week 1 bye sucks as a fan lol.
  7. Jacked that it's cam mainly at DT. I get rolling with Parker despite limited PS play/success, he's done a lot in the past, even in limited reps. I don't get what we see in bridges. But we always start out with a guy or two like him that gets swapped out after a few weeks. Not that he's awful, he isn't rock cartwright or tyquwan glass. Just maybe this years version.
  8. I do think it's about how Sheahans ball knuckles a bit making it harder to catch, yeah.
  9. Yeah seems very possible. Kola's best ability is a reliable snap. His only skill other than being a human pylon.
  10. Rourke. Highest paid guy in the league by a lot. Milligan is solid on teams and a good db. He isn't the best but he's good. Db is a position you expect guys to excel at quickly to. At qb, the sophmore year is a hard hit and the way you really judge em is how they bounce back from that. Rourke is at that judging point now, but being paid like he's flutie 2.0. Coasting off his first half a year as a starter, which was 3 years ago is nuts. Rourke could be the 3rd or 4th best qb in the league this year, and that would still leave him wildly over rated and paid. I think he has as good a chance at having another brutal year as he does of being 3-4.
  11. Didn’t do enough to win a cfl job. But did enough to instantly get signed and get a cfl job from another team. Lmao yep sure thing bud 👍
  12. https://www.cfl.ca/2025/06/03/brady-oliveira-headlines-tsns-top-50-cfl-players-for-2025/ another brilliant list.
  13. Evan’s. Not even close. He has a good chance to be in the nfl in a year or two.
  14. Averages aren't everything. Evans was hitting angles, he wasn't suddenly shanking punts. Also, in the first game Evans averaged 53.5 to Sheahans 43. I would've gone with Evans, but I get PRing him. I understand that we can't force him and that he left for a chance to actually play. That alone, should tell you all you need to know though. The riders wouldn't have been scooping sheahan.
  15. I don't agree that it was closer than perceived. I haven't seen a multi-year incumbent punter with such frequency to shank punts be handily the best punter on any team with competition. Sheahan is Mos' guy, it's really that simple. Evans wasn't like some guarenteed golden leg reincarnation of bob cameron. But everything I saw and heard, he was clearly better. Even angle punting and hang time, Evans was better. But his speed at getting the ball off and consistent abilit to drive the ball down field a lone set him head and shoulders above Sheahan. Dude is good for at least 1 shank a game/practice, and prone to shank streaks on top of that. He has good games, and he has games that aren't brutal. But he is very consistent in smoking a ball off the side of his foot out of bounds for a net 10 if we are lucky. If you break down his splits, it would be sickening how many under net 25s he has.
  16. I agree, though Evan’s didn’t shank any and has astronomical leg talent and potential and is just 23/24.
  17. Thanks for the tidbits. I kind of suspected evans refused a pr spot. Sucks he is sask bound but not surprised. Cooley is to much not to love lol.
  18. 722/727 yards is the career high between all 3, in 15 and 18 games. Whites was before a disastrous injury, and Mitchell has been a fraction of what he showed in his rookie half year. I don't think any of those 3 are highly projectable. And like I said, they haven't been excellent. Our wr core is a mile wide and an inch deep. That inch, is mostly schoen. He said they've been excellent here in camp and pre-season. haha right? I don't know any football fans that do any more tbh.
  19. Hey now he made 1 none stamps pick in rourke for moc! lmao
