I wouldn’t say no to that. I’d love mccinnis. I do worry we will blow too much on wr/rb/qb again. I get the desire to build that way, but I’d rather spend that money on 3 dl and 5 ol. If we really want to go 30 front full time, I’d go get one of Hendricks and ceresna. Rotating heavily on the dl with wj, vaughters, woods, Lawson, 1 of those two plus the best of Adam’s, Garbutt, fox and Jake would give us a devastating front that could collapse the pocket consistently with out blitzing. reddit has sections with every wing and type you can name. But almost all the worst people of those groups.

Best modern kr in the cfl. Tremendous move for you guys, sad he isn’t coming home but not surprised. Wonder what his pay day was like.

Philpot, dukes, coxie, hardy, Addison, and Begelton is the biggest name. So none of the guys who would set the high water mark. But a few notable names and 1 higher tier guy. I think it’s going to be a battle of who blinks first among the teams. No one wants to give the massive pay days any more, but I don’t think a bunch of teams will want to miss out either.

It was bad before as some political groups basically bought in to being fact checkers. Fb has been trash for a long while. Tbh the average sports fan in the primary target demographic knows next to nothing out side of their roster and what the color/Pbp guys say.

Wilson is a camp flyer imo. Hes never put together a good healthy year. 1 jones is really limited and both play the same position. Neither is a wil in the cfl. Person is a pass rusher. Pierre, is also a light max to wil not a wil to db type. The only guy in that list who could over lap with Cole is ayers. Drake Nevis got a big pay day to come here. Since then, no. We haven’t even paid to keep our own guys at that position since then.

Haba hasn’t developed a lick since he arrived. Came in with one rush move and that’s all he has still. Definitely should be gone. Garbutt showed some nice progress and yeah he’s easily our best contain and run Stopping end. Which is a little bit sad but he should certainly be back in camp. If vaughters has any thing left he’s a good get. Super strong guy who can play end in the 30, 40, and rush from a 3tech in the 40. Not great in space, and doesn’t have the ability to get in on the back side of plays. Or scrape to the side line. Still a big upgrade from much of what we ran out since jj was moved on from. I hope this doesn’t mean we won’t be in on other fa des. Unless we add a top tier imp dt. Vaughters as a di 3rd imp de would be excellent.

It’s almost like we are in the early stages of the off season or some thing eh? based on what exactly?

He was drafted into the nfl at S, and spent two Tcs and pre seasons working at S here. Last year in the last pre season game pre show mos talked about it. Hes a bit of a Swiss Army knife, but S is his natural position and where we have put in the most work to develop him. Taylor was a dhb, who could fill almost any role we needed, including lining up and playing man on WRs. Cole isnt nearly as strong playing straight up on a wr. Taylor played as a sub, which left Cole in his regular role from down the stretch last year. We also started out the year last year using Cole as the dime that griffin ended up excelling at. Taylor also brings a ton of championship leadership that with out ba etc we lacked. Taylor could make the adjustments and corrections to coverage that ba did. it’s also part of our unwillingness to move on. Just like how kyrie played soo much of the gc while under performing despite Ayers strong finish. Taylor wasn’t a bad choice to bring in, certainly an odd one though.

https://3downnation.com/2025/01/30/hamilton-tiger-cats-release-dl-dewayne-hendrix-ahead-of-offseason-bonus/ Hendrix or ceresna would be fantastic.

Both Ayer’s and Cole have gotten nfl work outs. I think it’s very likely both are back here. Cole is being groomed at S. I think kyrie is getting a tc shot. I don’t think he’s taking the job of one of these young guys. Kyrie is great on teams, and can bring strong vet leadership to the camp completion. I don’t think he’s taking will be with us all year, unless he’s on the pr/ast coaching on the field, or if he some how returns to peak form and stays healthy. I’d love to see Jonathon jones and ayers as the starting lbers. This is such a great pick up.

I hadn't really considered it before. I'm not sure. We certainly got the best performance from his career. But would late 20s zach have been better with our 19/21 and forward team? I kind of think so.

Bryant and neuf have been here through the worst. It would be insane if they left in fa. gray wasn’t a starter but we paid him like one, hardrick did end up chasing dollars, holm rose and Kramdi got among the highest pay for dbs in the cfl when they signed. Rose was toast and the only one who wasn’t a clear over pay the moment the deal was signed. we did have offers to stove and grant. This was openly commented on when they left. marcus sayles was excellent when he left. Casey sayles is probably the best 3 tech in the league.

It feels like we’ve seen an exodus for a while. Guys we want to stay or come back from the nfl going else where and guys that are what ever coming back on really strong Money. We’ve lost soo much from the 19/21 team in terms of young guys still playing front office guys. Grant, exhume, Hansen, Bailey, couture, desjarlais, brown, sayles, stove, lawler first time and Sergio too. That’s just guys we struggled on and lost. Not including guys we struggled on an over paid. Collaros was here in his prime?

Wonder how many people from the front office to roster could afford a house. 4-5?

100%. Love the talent, sucks to lose the guy. But if we are adding a160-200k salary to the defensive side, it should be a DE.

He missed 2 games in his first 2 years, then had the 1 injury last year. He's only had 1 injury put him on the 6 game. Kenny hasn't played a full season in any of his 5 years, he averages 11-12 games a year and 1 6 game stint each season. Kennys best year was 1014 yards and 6 tds. Schoens average over his first 2 is 1300 yards and 13 tds. Greg ellingson had 1 year that is comparable to schoens average. Out of 10 seasons. Ellingson also played a 6 year stretch not missing more than 2 games.

Yuppppp.

For schoen I’d try to lure him into a multi year deal with a decent front load. Since he’s hurt and giving the money up front I’d try for 230-250. Lawler id want on an incentive based deal. Some thing like 170 with the ability to make 230-250 if he plays 15 or more games, and has 1250+, 9 tds+. Rookie min is less, but still stupid Pennies to pinch.

Offence was leading the league in rushing and passing with the mess in edm. Turned them around into a near play off team after that abysmal start. He ran an extremely dynamic multi threat run based game with a pass plan that made up a lot for their ol. 6 stints in the league as a pass game co/ oc with good success, really made the most of his pieces at each stop. Hes one of if not the most innovative oc in the cfl. He puts together great game plans and play call is his strong suit. All he does is exceed, and over achieve ever time he’s given an opportunity. Miller, for me is the opposite. Tends to under achieve while flashing potential. He’s been noted as a guy who is excellent at development and player coaching, going back to his playing career. Which is why he instantly slid into coaching upon retiring Since he switched to coaching he hasn’t been out of football once. In a league where guys like Paul can’t stick in the league it speaks volumes that soo many front offices of different teams scoop him up every time he’s available. He’s been able to excel under the egomaniac that is Chris jones. Also a buono disciple.

I’d go with Jackson, but I think itll be miller.

Probably not the worst co we’ve had lmao. We’ve had some of the worst CO’s in the cfl in the last 25 years. We don’t need to make sense it’s the mafia/bomber way! tremendous raw talent. I’m bummed we won’t have him in camp. But I do think this clears up space to bring in another high upside rookie.

lol I haven’t followed hockey in ages and that still resonates. Great comparison. As I said previously, “going home” is bs 90% of the time.

Yeah Demski isn’t often healthy and while he’s played most games he’s not been 100%. But this might be his new 100 at his age and wear. That’s the worst fear yeah. Full time Jake. That’s a good point, woli had long been a go to comfort blanket for zach. Big time plays and when we’ve had other guys banged up he’s stepped up.

It’s not like we are deep at ni wr either. We’ve been starting two ni WRs, with basically 1 back up. Big Kev can do it very thing woli was doing on O, and has a ton of up side. But Demski isn’t a spring chicken either. Confounding move to say the least. only things I can think is 1) they want to flip the ratio and go 1 ni wr, 2) penny pinching like others have said. 110k isn’t peanuts, but with a 70k ish base rookie salary it isn’t tremendous savings either. This has got to spell doom for a guy like Augustine. We needed to move on from long in the tooth over priced vets but a huge list of guys should’ve come before woli. I love Demski, hes had his two highest production years back to back with good health. But if we need to save cash his 225k+ could be better served else where. He isn’t the jet sweep guy any more, or the guy blocking down field he used to be. No fault of his own, it’s his usage and wear n tear catching up. We’ve seen that with guys like lawler and schoen out, Demski doesn’t become a no1 wr. Hes a damn good no3 ni wr. But we are paying him no1 money. Expecting to see more of this now though. We are clearly cutting space to add big in free agency. Don’t think we were 40k away from what we needed. More will come im sure. Also certain with this move that we aren’t gonna spend like the B.C. lions against the cap this year. I’m the biggest Dobson booster here. He isn’t. He isn’t even close to worth that kind of money. I’m a big believer in what he can turn into and how good he will be this year. Last year was his first season starting and our ol was in shambles. But he isn’t desjarlais or in that tier. He’s not in the tier below drew either. Drew made 260k. Big Stan made like 176k. Chung got 202k, which is a bit of an over pay. I wouldn’t give Dobson 200k. 150-180k with some incentives on a multi year deal, I’d take that gamble. North of 200k he should kick rocks.

Qft. Tremendous ambassador for the team, league and sport. Getting him was huge for us. Last hole on the D filled by the best guy possible.
