  1. he reminds me of don mathews maybe he will end up in mtl. Maybe if reilly goes down and franklin isnt what hes hyped up to... but even then the esks are still hands down better this year then the riders.
  2. he certainly enabled it, no doubt. Being an S&M sports fan (bombers, jets, jays, raptors etc) it just makes it more worth while when the team does well. Atleast thats what i keep telling my self year after year after year after..... I expect the bombers to atleast have a much improved season on what weve had to deal with pre turn around last year. I think handily worse off this year then last year. Hamilton is still laying their hopes and prayers on a glass qb, the riders havent made the massive strides that they need to to turn it around, and while i like the front office changes in TO i think it comes too late. While we have one of the best NI groups in the league and only stand to get Much better. And weve made strong veteran pick ups to continue our own up tick. We clearly are not the power house team like calgary, and we dont have the bikini appeal of the leos, but I think we are still in a great position to challenge for 2nd to 3rd overall in the league during the regular season.
  3. yeah at the post season presser thing walters did he seemed to think it was a lock he'd be in camp this year. Hate the guys lack of experience to age, but love the raw talent. If he is back he should be interesting to watch in camp/pre season.
  4. I think its a lock that he'd be available at 6. But a better chance that hes gone at 15 then still on the board. Hes more toolsy then vandervoort but with a fraction of the polish. I like his head set and he seems like a smart player who loves football. not just a raw athlete. I think either would be a favorite going into camp to start. I would think behar gives us more on teams then vandervoort. I dont see vandervoort falling below 4 or behar going above 6. If hes in the same talent tier as whats left at 6 aside from strong nfl interest guys id be pretty happy if we got him. Id be shocked and thrilled if we got him at 15.
  5. I would say so but I cant remember many times a HC left a team and was not shot down in a blaze of bridge glory. Dave ritchie perhaps?
  6. Maybe hes the guy that comes around every year or two claiming insider knowledge and giving TC reports when he clearly didnt go (good performances by people who didnt dress etc)
  7. yeah the timing is whats really crazy. weve seen situations like that before from jones and the riders back to the Don in MTL. Normally it bottoms out when the winning stops not right before the draft. To add i agree that the way they dealt with the mic'd up thing was horribly un professional. Though i thought that was more maas, it prolly starts with hervey and runs down through the whole organization.
  8. i found this utterly shocking. the timing of it, how well the eskes have done under him, just wow. Perhaps a few weeks to around LD when the riders smarten up and fire jones that is where he will land. off the top of my head im not sure where else he goes.
  9. wow thats soo awful.
  10. richards is like 6'4 220 too. But i agree with the prejudice against sask wrs.
  11. Hard to evaluate wrs in an offense that runs a offense thats 15 yards deep. Especially with the early season guys.
  12. Etienne might have grown into an adult body finally who knows. Richards has the physical tools, with his healthy and preparedness though who knows. Im not holding my breath on him by any means. I do hope we get a wr with one of our top 3 picks. Ideally top 2.
  13. considering what we have and those 3 given the choice id take almost any one else for qb4 in tc. Its kinda strange, havent heard of a deal for MBT, or us picking up a young guy to be the 4th. its great having that extra arm for mini camp and early in camp. Works great with a young developmental qb new to the cfl. (which is the direction i hope we go)
  14. considering we had some weak draws at home last year due to the start of the season and the jets later on thats pretty bloody good.
  15. if you go to that point, do you count plays where the qb throws right to a db and the db drops it, or a wr makes a fantastic break up as a pick for the qb? Stats need to have a high level of repetitions to paint a good picture. like wise they also need to be grounded with supporting stats. Other wise kohlert is the best qb to suit up last year. thats why stats are a huge part of baseball, and have a cult following in basketball but are much further behind in football. its a small sample size.
  16. i saw that browsing the other day might have to give it a look
  17. agree with this in a huge way. Ive seen more then enough of high school era peter parker. Its all soo golly gee mary jane sure is pretty too bad i have glasses and am smart shed never go for me... Modern marvel comics havent done much right in a long while, but atleast they went with a fresh take on spiderman. That said i will watch home coming of course. But of all the coming marvel movies my expectations are by far lowest for it. Is lower then basically every thing but jessica jones s2. Netflix horror selection is soo bad i wish they'd put some effort into it. Not even a lot of effort just some.
  18. i havent seen at all but he smacks of the type of guy nfl teams want. Big modern body and super athletic.
  19. yeah cant see a top 4 pick being used on him if he gets a lot of nfl interest. And with his athletic ability and size its hard to imagine him not getting a lot of interest.
  20. and a project at end when we have corney plus butcher in side. Id b pretty shocked if we picked him with one of our top 3 picks. thats for sure. hes confident but in that healthy i want the ball cus i can make the play type. Driven, hard working football guy with really good athletic ability. If buono picks vandervoort expect him to turn to gold. Gray is gonna be heavily dependent on nfl interest. I don think the bombers will put any emphasis on drafting bisons, as they havent to date. they go with their guys and best on the board it seems. Herdman does seem to be the mos type too. if hes there at 15th or our next pic for sure.
  21. close to reality? like i said i dont think any mock is ever close in the cfl. Especially with a few good OL prospects. I do think its a good representation of the talent, and the teams priorities over all at this point in time. But I also dont see any chance we take all linemen LOL.
  22. russell might make a good offensive line at this point...
  23. http://www.cfl.ca/2017/04/03/mock-2-0-ankou-senior-jump-charts/ another mock draft. Interesting, and far closer to reality then the other one. Though I dont think things will go that straight forward in the top 5. some one allways gets crazy and some one falls. Id rather behar at 6 then boateng as well.

  25. Argos cut logan kilgore, keep drew willy.... so far any way.
