The cfl draft is any thing but predictable but I thought it might be fun to take some shots in the dark. Does the first over all pick get traded? Who goes first? Who do the blue take?
Im guessing the first over all pick doesnt get traded. Im thinking st.john goes first over all. I think the bombers take gagnon with our first pick in the 2nd. (hope as much as think) Im also gonna say ottawa gambles and takes onyemata's rights.

Bennett I believe is slotted into that slot, no? seems to have a lot of intangibles that could make a solid CFL QB if hes willing to play the waiting game now that hes the short man on the totem pole.
More the average cfl qb prospect imop. Intangibles are nice, and he has solid athletic ability but i dont think he's that type of guy you groom for a few years with no more then pre season action.

Ploen, Stegall, Lewis, Walby to start it off?
Id like to see them add a name each home game for the first season. Those are cant miss guys though.

Here's the thing:
if he wants to come up here, he's probably close in value to the 1st overall pick ... but I wouldn't want to make that deal.
if he doesn't want to come up here, he's worth nowhere near it (obviously)
Agree with that. but if we could trade him for a plug and play upgrade on the oline...

Id be pretty happy to land gagnon. But then id be happy to get any top 10 OL.

The DL is exciting potentially. Alabama and the SEC in general usually has a ton of talent and speed.
Yeah his physical tools and high caliber schooling is really interesting.

Hubbard looks like he could be a player.
No joke, high level pedigree. 6'6 260 4.6 speed 38.5" vert, those are solid wr numbers. Gotta love tall long rush ends who can knock down passes at the line.
williams is a big db, im guessing he played safety in college. Isnt that elfred peytons alma mater?
Surprised to see jhomo and stoudemire cut before camp. They must have either pooped the bed or the brass felt the young guys weve brought in made them expendable. We do seem to have a real bumper crop of wrs, but before pre season its tough to say how good they will be.

The top 4 on that list all have a shot at being drafted in the NFL... if not drafted, I think they'll sign as UDFAs.... I wish they would expand the list to top 30 or 40, cuz this is really a top 15 when you take out NFL prospects...
then you have a top 9-10 or each teams first pic. With a taste of depth pic future neglist watch guys.

Man, they're piling up on OL and receivers....I like that.
You can say that again. Wouldnt mind a longer term project qb but we had been bringing lots of those guys in the last few years to little avail.

2 more added before mini-camp kicks off today:
Aundrey Walker (OL) - 6'6, 315lbs out of USC, spent 2015 on the Dolphins PR
Kris Adams (WR) - 6'3, 200lbs from UTEP, spent time with the Bears, Colts & Giants since 2011.

Adams looks interesting, walkers scout reports were about as sad as any prospect ive seen since glen big baby davis.

Then you rotate between Hurl and Bucknor.
the thought of hurl playing more then spot minutes makes me nervous. I really hope waggoner steps up and he and buck can rotate.

6 1 225. He is listed as a dB on the teams roster page tho.
Not too big for safety. Weve had smaller backers and bigger safetys. Coverage lber, hb and safety are all similar size guys. Safety means you need different instincts vision etc.

Just now, Goalie said:
Bauming thinks they see him as a lb and not a safety. Guess we will have to keep an eye on Waggoner at camp to see if he's slimmed down a bit. If so perhaps Bauming is wrong and he is a safety candidate
Yeah but tbh i dont put much value in our citys sports reporters pre regular season. Every single one of em is too busy eating donuts talking and playing on their phones to actually notice any thing going on. Waggoner was a saftey in the US, bc was gonna sign him to play it i dont think he has to change any thing. Now if he has what it takes or not is some thing very different. Idk why we are moving any one to LBer though, seems like the strength of our D atm.

one more sleep till mini camp! whoooo! Wouldnt might seeing wagoneer step up and take starting safety.

duper the super negatron. mega negatron. Or cautiously optimistic. Which is how all bomber fans seem to feel right now. Weve got some really good pieces young and old. Camp should be a gooder.

When's the last time a team has thrived with their top 3 receivers all being under 6'?
Idk but off the top of my head, milt was listed 6'0 here and 5'11 in the nfl. We had him bobby gordon aj3 then arland bruce with charles roberts catching a ton of passes too.

Looks like a gifted athlete will be fun to see what he can bring to camp.
4.47/41.5"/10'8" 6.65 cone and 4.09 shuttle.
On the scouting front, National Football Post's Wes Bunting liked Talley's size at 6'1, his burst, and his ability to separate. Pro Football Weekly said Talley had an "athletic build", "smooth movement" and quickness in and out of his breaks. His 41.5 inch vertical (also reported by Pro Football Weekly) is probably his biggest asset, although both Bunting and PFW weren't thrilled about his hands and tendency to body-catch.
Talley can return kicks and punts and provide depth at slot receiver with potential to line up outside. If 2011 third-round pick Jerrel Jernigan doesn't have a good camp, Talley's time with Cruz could continue into the 2012 season and beyond.
