https://3downnation.com/2022/05/05/ranking-every-teams-2022-cfl-draft-class/ Don't agree much with this assessment. I get why he put us at the bottom, though I dont agree. I think this was an excellent draft crop for what was available, what picks we had and worked very well with what we needed. Tors rank is the worst on the list imo. They killed it.

This TC roster looks more like the dickenson stamps dynasty then any thing the league has seen since then. The volume of blue chip prospects fighting each other for a chance at a job is un real. Not only does this roster have no holes, it has pick of the litter for who to develop as the next man up. Usually you know certain blue chip guys are going to stick around in one way shape or form. This year, a couple of good players with great upside are going to be let go. Ellingson, Saunders, Bailey, Demski, Woli for a starting wr core going into camp. No weak links in the chain and if any one isn't 100% they got the group of Agudosi, B.jackson, Mcknight, Simmons, Whopp, Schoen and more at their heels. Normally we'd be very happy to have 1 or 2 guys like Simons, and whopp or returning guys like Jackson and Agudosi. The depth is nuts.

Yeah, walters talked about it in his presser too. At this point I'm sure the bombers would be comfortable starting an NI dt, wil, or db as needed. If Eli isnt back, but dobson signs then he's good enough to be our 6th OL. Then it'd be our plan C to start 3 imps. If dobson signs and Eli is brought back then our OL is as deep as last year. Having Koczwara back is nice for the depth too. Adamson is a beast 1 on on 1 too, if they turn him around and he takes to the OL well he could move up quickly. I could see him taking a roster spot based on the ability to play both ways if he does well in OL reps too.

It really is. We have frequently had DL and DB depth like this under the mafia. This is the first time we've had more blue chip wr prospects than you can shake a stick at. I cant wait to see the TC depth chart at wr. Its going to be silly. 3rd team dbs are gonna be having a fit.

Or a jaunty sea shanty?

Rare to find a guy with that kind of quickness, and a top gear to break away from defenders. Not to mention in that tall frame. He needs some polishing but what a prospect. Are we approaching having signed too many WRs again? 🤣 This is the deepest wr core going into a camp that we've had in a long, long time.

This is a very interesting point. I dont think Either will be playing cb much here this year. But itll be interesting to see. I think we will see the 2 starting hbs, 2 starting cbs and sam all be imports. But while BA is hurt we likely will see the Nucks rotate at S. Last year we flashed 2 deep looks subbing the wil for a 2nd S. That makes it harder to pick up the coverage when playing 3 high. I think we will also see the 6th db / dime be an NI. As it sits the defense will have tremendous flexibility in rotating in a Canadian at any of the 3 levels. We've been slowly bleeding NI depth over the past few years so this young blood on the D could be huge.

https://www.bluebombers.com/2022/05/04/2022-draft-recap/ Some great details on rene, dobson and the draft crop.

2 hours in and still in the 2nd round. Holy crap tsn.

Bombers > all until some one dethrones the champ champs.

He's gonna be a gooder. Wouldve looked great in blue and gold. I think richards will be the best early on, but I think he will be back in the nfl in a year or two and some guys like schakel, makonzo, etc will be the best players in the league out of this draft.

Is that you arash? 😉 I dont think speaking french is an asset in the ottawa locker room... lol. No doubt they are killing it.

Love the Ford pick. Fits a need and a guy who can be on the roster to start the year.

True. They could use Lber depth to allow them to rotate auclair in more and get some one who has an impact on teams now.

wonder if ott goes OL again.

Bombers going to go back to back to back before making their first pick this year. Argos get knight, brilliant for them.

tyson philpot goes to montreal. thats a nice pick. Im sure they are happy with the trade up.

wonder if montreal goes dl here. I was thinking the same thing. And hes athletic enough to do some gimmick packages as a skill position.

Tre ford to edm. He would be what their 7th qb?

All three are pretty close and in the same quality tier imo. The question is will they all get a decent chance to develop. Both good points. I dont think TO has the best NI depth in the league, but they have done a great job of rebuilding it in a hurry.

Emilus is a good get for ssk. A bit surprised they went wr, especially over Zerr.

Gregor goes 6 to tor. I'm pretty surprised. He better hurry up and develop into a starter so the argos can cut him to save a bit of cash. Nasty physical ol, would've fit in well here.

Yeeeep. Cfl on tsn quality standard, do it as cheap and lazy as possible.

The first philpot at 5, wonder if tyson falls to us. Thatd be crazy.
