yes i fully expect him to be in the nfl this year. how he performs at that level in camp is beyond guessing though. every cfl team uses an F slotback, the interior slot whose the one that will pitch in blocking on the edge more then youd think. He easily has the skill set to play inside slot in the cfl and be a full time pass catcher. last year our NI wrs combined for 44 catches on 67 attempts for 450 yards 2 tds and 1 play over 30 yards. 23 and change yards per game play offs included. .10 tds per game. auclair runs like a wr and has the tools for the position. The top 3 in this draft class could all do that them self.

I think its 100% chance auclair will be in an nfl camp. Will he be in the cfl part way through this year or next year? Cant say for sure. If they were both gonna be in the cfl id take auclair. The difference between him and vandervoort/jfg blocking on run plays, pinching an end, and blocking on pass plays away from him is massive. Add in his miss match lining up against any defender especially in the redzone and you have a dream package guy. I think both would produce similarly at catching and yards.

on =/= wearing xD they could start a moped club for big guys in the city. And wear sons of anarchy gear.

29 isnt a plan to replace the NI age. Not to mention there are 2 rbs that should be available with a depth pick that would be fantastic to round out our back depth and play teams. Plus our ni depth on D. http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/bigten/2016/07/26/iowa-hawkeyes-faith-ekakitie-police-encounter-pokemon-go/87594188/ An interesting read and watch. I cant imagine a dude that big on a moped xD. In his case i think the description would have included the fact hes the size of a VW bug.

Around The League Off Season Discussion
wbbfan replied to Bomber_fanaddict's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
that is a strange provision. I dont think ive ever seen a pending active play as a future out side of PTBNL, which is cash a huge percentage of the time. -
Probably right era inclusive wise. I should have included an * that I dont think there is any comparison to prospects that come out in the last 15 years to the previous 10 or so. Modern era wise Vandervoort seems head and shoulders more polished then any wr weve seen out of the cis.

Around The League Off Season Discussion
wbbfan replied to Bomber_fanaddict's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
the usual seems to be a clause of if the player starts X number of games the trading team gets Y pick. but who knows could be a case of beer. -
I heard they actually had 10 more guys but they have learned from the 2016 season and improved the super secret roster. agree 100%. Maybe this will be in the cards over the next few years like how the draft became televised. They could atleast get some college AV kids and give them a gig and stream a show on cfl.ca/YT, Im sure duane forde etc could use the pay check.
-
post of the month right here. I find it interesting they list 3 rbs and not ante litre. Even after augustines combine i think its 1a and 1b far more then vandervoort and behar.
-
haha wow. jones living it up while it lasts. jade to be fair was built like a ballerina more then a football player when we picked him. gotta stop picking wrs out of regina lol. unless we convert them to punter.
-
with 2 picks in the top 6, 3 ol and 3 wrs (+ ankou) who are strong prospects we are in a good position to get 2 of em. If we get one of the 4 linemen and 1 of the wrs thatd be pretty perfect in my books.
-
What bb1 and floyd said. I could see BC taking him, but think they will go OL. No matter the focault trade. Unless the top 3 ol are sure fire gone to the nfl. I dont see him falling past the hammer. is that deal official now? I think vandervoort could probably start as a rookie for half the teams in the league. us included.
-
Idk if vandervoort has the up side. Will really have to see him on the field in camp/pre season / action to see. He is the highly polished show ready low risk high reward type though. I have trouble seeing him come in and be less productive then jamie stoddards better seasons. 500 with 4tds. Seems like a real hard worker. Smart, and football guy too. I dont think weve seen as polished a wr come out of the cis before.
-
planning how to get back into a position where he doesnt have to be bothered with such plebeian things as the combine.
-
Not vernon davis, brock lesnar crazy but for a NI pretty close lol. Corney put up 4.69 40 4.15 shuttle, 38" vert, 10'2" broad jump and 34 reps. Id say auclair is far, far more polished as an offensive player then corney was as a DE.
-
is that your 1on1 drill rankings? I didnt get to watch it all good to know i can go back n watch. Id love to end up with one of augustine or ante litre.
-
Perhaps the most cfl ready. You can coach a guy and fix technique issues, but you cant teach speed. His speed may translate better to football then the 40. But over all mediocre at best run jump numbers kinda worry that he might max out at a jamie stoddard type player. Compare auclairs pro day numbers to vandervoorts. Auclair: 4.82 40, 4.33 shuttle, 7.28 3 cone, 33.5" vert, 9'9 broad jump, and 22 reps on the bench press. 6'5 256 Vandervoort: 4.73 40, 4.35 shuttle, 7.20 3 cone, 31.5" vert, 9'6 broad jump, 13 reps on the bench press. 6'1 203 http://3downnation.com/2017/03/13/antony-auclair-sees-17-nfl-teams-attend-pro-day-laval/

I think in general a bunch of guys put up less then expected run/jump numbers. That combined with the guys who skipped, and of course the fact that not every one can put there best foot forward on 1-2 days between seasons, leaves you with more questions then answers from the combine. I dont think we get one of the top teir OL at 6, or vandervoort. If you go top 3 at each position, we would have it in our power to have 2 of auclair, vandervoort, behar, bladek, gray and woods. A side from who you want/dont want ideally, and who jumps to the nfl, that is a fantastic position to be in. I think behar, and auclair would have the best chances of being available at 6. Of course i dont think auclair is much of a chance to be in camp this year.

Its his combo of good quickness, great strength and size. Hes a project but so is gray. And a project ol with huge size and quickness + the right pass port gets a ton of push up the boards. Hes not a guy Im hoping we grab in the first round but I wouldnt be sad either. He certainly doesnt have slow feet, he doesnt have that amazing quickness that allows him to over compensate or over come bad angle etc but his quickness is solid easily. Gray seems like the bob wiley wet dream prototype for an OL. If we end up with him, id be pretty happy.
-
1) Ankou 2) Senior 3) Auclair 4) Woods 5) Vandervoort 6) Gray 7) Boateng 8) Mulumba 9) Ekakitie 10) Bladek Some guys who will (or would) have interesting transitions to the cfl. Really big for their positions up here. But a good few of those guys will be the ones with nfl interest.
-
No idea how far teams will go for his athletic ability and size but it will be interesting to see thats for sure. Now that the combine numbers are in how about a top 10 board? Not gonna go into whose going to the nfl and whose not, team needs etc. Just the best prospects available this year.
-
31" vert 9'7 broad jump and 31 reps. I only saw his reps. he used far less back arch and leg drive then most guys who put up 30+ reps.
-
I imagine they are going to put every villain possible in dark seid, then end it by going into a new 52 esq reboot. Must rush and ruin every story line possible! gremlins 3? really? Zombieland was amazing. If 2 has the same cast ill be holding my breath for it to be good. If not ill prolly pass.
-
i guess they are gonna be really broke now? eh? eh? ill show my self out... never watched it my self.
-
im thinking of giving it a 2nd try. i think i made it 3 episodes the first time. I hope the TPB season is better then the last / out of the park. From the trailer it sure looks like they are trying some thing different.
