probably about 3 days into tc.

makes some nice plays, some times seems a little wild at times trying to make a play on the ball in a crowd of his own guys. But man his size and athletic ability are really impressive. Could play all over the defense with his tool set. We are set to have an embarrassment of riches in terms of young guys this tc.

really, wow. we have been bad at the start of this regime. but we havent been a dumpster fire under them.

sweet merciful crap those are insane numbers. Sounds like a candidate to replace tony burnette. Looks like he made a TON of plays. especially his first year in college. http://www.silverandblackpride.com/2016/5/10/11644816/2016-oakland-raiders-udfa-profile-fresno-state-lb-kyrie-wilson-hopes-elite-athleticism-sets-apart

np. Yeah and normally a guy catching short passes would make that asterisk worthy but the offense at ULM had most of those catches in tight traffic which is even more impressive. They had a rash of injuries his last year, and he was supposedly 100% when he left college so heres hoping.

Pretty much. And i do like well executed screens. Maybe we never saw the development of those plays due to the lack of success we had running them. Dare to dream any way.

Really makes the focus on high character guys look even better. Wont lie, im heavily skewed towards talent over character. It can be easy to throw the baby out with the bath water. Plus some times guys need a 2nd chance, or a better situation. Guys like this though gotta be pushed out of pro sports. If he was suspended indefinitely by the league itd be a good start. It makes me sad to see good talent wasted on bad people.

ceasar a a legit high end prospect. im surprised hes shaken loose into the cfl allready. http://www.underdogdynasty.com/2016/4/26/11506444/rashon-ceasar-ulm-warhawks-wr-2016-nfl-draft-profile http://www.nfl.com/draft/2016/profiles/rashon-ceaser?id=2556238 He doesnt have the crazy size the nfl looks for, though he has nice size for the cfl. Hes more quick then fast. More of a possession to catch and run type of guy. Play style some where between arland bruce and robert gordon. He also fits very well with the "smith" package plop likes to run / try to run. Hes a guy I like, and im excited to see him here.

angelfire called they want their potato quality back.

Gigantic compared to him. I would love to see it though, and mighty mouse wants a pay day. I could see it as a surprise retirement fight from him.

youre right, comparing him to kuale isnt fair. my bad. Its also not his fault he got over played at a position he should have backed up.

thats the truth the weather has been un real. never know what to expect day to day.

http://www.bluebombers.com/practice-schedule/ Mini camp schedule is out. All dates at IG field. Wednesday, April 26 Practice: 11:00 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. Thursday, April 27 Practice: 10:45 a.m. – 12:15 p.m. and 2:45 p.m. – 4:15 p.m. Friday, April 28 Practice: 10:45 a.m. – 12:05 p.m

been a bad first quarter for ufc cards and events in general. But this would be fantastic. DJ vs mcg. no take backs gimmie it now. http://www.bloodyelbow.com/2017/4/18/15341070/ufc-mma-news-interview-video-demetrious-johnson-conor-mcgregor-super-fight-featherweight

bad teams tend to cut good players. and even good teams have guys fall between the cracks. 104 tackles 9.5 tfl and 4 sacks as a junior after bouncing between starter and bench previously is pretty impressive. Some times a year off can be good if a guy gets hurt too. no idea if thats his case. At worst these guys are TCF, and young tcf. Id rather have young hungry tcf then old long in the tooth types weve seen previously. No macho harris kuale etc type in sight. And like you said its been a real good off season. Id suspect they see some thing in these two rather then filling out the TC roster with tcf.

I think that would be the scenario, this draft has a glut of mid to late first round type talent and i could see a back like augustine, or especially ante litre falling. Either would be well worth mid to late pick for teams and depth. We dont have a lot of pics after our high 3 but a pick swap for next year to grab one of those guys in the 4th and on would be great. I think normand might get a chance to play a bit if harris got hurt. If say harris went down mid game normand would step in. If he ran with it I could see him being the starter while we carry one of the other imp rbs as a DI.

I think normand is penciled in at that spot but I wouldnt be surprised if we grabbed some one in the bottom of the draft or free agency

he would be taking flanders job if he made the team. When we had flanders and harris on the roster the DI spot was just wasted. We COULD make use of 2 backs but I dont think we will under plop. Thats why I was saying hes likely to be PR if he works out if harris is healthy. If one of harris or normand got hurt he / flanders would be the DI back up rb or starter. You never stop bringing in talent though. especially if they have a chance to be high level. When we brought in blink he had to fight his way on the roster and steal carries from troy mills, eric blount, and iirc corey philpot was on the roster in TC. Lots of high level competition at a position is how you maintain greatness and improve.

http://www.goetbutigers.com/athletics/directory/2922/kendall-roberson/ not a lot there but sounds like a good student athlete and like some one who loves football, and had deep roots with his program. pro day numbers of 4.48 40, 34.5 vert, 18 reps 225, 3 cone of 7.00, 4.16 shuttle, 9'9" broad jump. and measured 5'8. Certainly one of the more interesting rookie imps to watch for camp. http://www.nfldraftblitz.com/470-2/ http://herosports.com/collegefootball/east-texas-baptist-running-back-kendall-roberson-desire-greatness “I heard a running back say there’s a hammer and a nail in every football play,” explained Roberson, “you get to decide what you want to be. In a muddy game, in the rain, someone’s gotta be the hammer.” Roberson provides easy banter, doesn’t talk about himself or his attributes, instead focusing on his teammates and his faith. He truly feels blessed for his abilities and the opportunity presented to him at ETBU. Ya sounds like hes got a real good head on his shoulders and that hard nose hard work ethic that mos loves. Tbh, if he is gonna have any chance of making the active roster he is gonna need to be versatile and play teams. He does look like a serious threat to be the no2 back, the imp DI / pr incase harris gets hurt.

crazy good deal

Where did you read that? I thought he was getting much more then that. If thats true thats crazy good value. When the best OL / BPA at no1 this year wont be in camp at best, and focault is arguably better this may have been the move of the off season. Buono does it again.

AT THE TRACK AT THE WALL HE CAN LOOK UP PUCKER UP AND KISS IT GOODBYE! cant lie i loved his pbp. I can totally see how its not for every one though. (baseball especially goes well with his kind of enthusiasm)

Reminds me of a certain sac state alum who rushed for 409 yards in one game and had a nice lil career here... (more then fred reid any way lol) Normally when you see a stat line like his (especially in sub d1 competition) you think its horrible gap assignment issues and running through wide open holes (like the fred reid game up here) but he seemed to run through arm tackles or better contact on all most all those plays. Reminds me a bit of cam marshall. Short stocky rb, good speed, good strength, runs north south a lot. Likes the contact doesnt shy away at all. Lots of run plays out of the gun which should translate well, and had a couple catches which is allways good too. Should be fun to watch him in camp.

If hes looking at a camp invite, i would agree. If however a team is gonna sign him he should take it. Even if he only lasts camp the bonus and money he'd get for camp would be massive. IF its just a camp invite i would agree that he should use it as leverage to get a hefty deal to come straight to the cfl. I really dont think hes in the picture for first over all at all. (no inside info just my 2c) Idk if he'd even be a guy to look at with the no3. He was smaller then listed, is a guy that probably needs a year of seasoning on teams, and then still doesnt have the up side henoc had (imop). Not counting ankou, senior and gray due to nfl interest, I still cant see him going over vandervoort, bladek, woods, etc. Wr and OL are money picks in the cfl. Even the misses (our misses aside) tend to be serviceable players. Its positions teams tend to stock up and value highly every year. May not like vandervoort, but you cant question that with his 1 on 1s his stock could not have gone down in this draft. Also I dont think waggoner could fill the same spot as mulumba. So you cant even use one to back up the other as depth. Youd need to pass on a possible starting NI else where for a guy thats probably a back up and for whom you dont have another ni back up. Id take the chance on colling over mulumba. Neither first though. I think with the no1 its gonna be between gray and ankou depending on nfl interest. Maybe vandervoort if the other two get too much interest or the club falls/fell in love with him from tape/interview/work outs. At 5, depending on who we take first behar, maybe colling, one of the guys who is gonna fall (ankou, bladek ,gray, vandervoort, woods or ekitake) or even a risk on some one with an nfl camp invite but not a deal is gonna be hard to pass on. (mainly senior)

A signee may or may not be on the roster that year. If they make it through mini camp, do the full or most of the TC, and dont sit around for too long hoping some one else picks them up as a FA, they might get to the cfl for what the 1/3rd mark? For a rookie TC and pre season is huge. Practice is based around winning the next game, correcting problems from the previous game(s), etc. Its much less about getting guys reps to learn and improve. TC is all about getting guys in action, working with them and evaluating them. Not to mention the chance to get into actual game situations against another team, and be allowed to work things out no matter the score or game. Those things are hugely valuable to a rookie. Havent looked at the schedule yet so im not sure where the miss camp point would be (mini camp invite, mid tc cut etc) but short of a guy thats very much ready to step in and contribute (which is rare) that first year is shot.
