The lack of coverage in training camp is truly so frustrating. The human interest stories are great fluff and I can’t blame Ed Tait because that’s what the club wants but come on …
Bighill out to start the year and not a peep about any of the new linebackers.
Two offensive line spots open and no clue who is out in front of the competiton.
A full draft class and no idea how they’re slotting in yet.
Is Haba/Fox starting just a closed case already? Does anyone want to talk about it?
KJ Hill cut and as per the reporters, he was “a hyped rookie” but absolutely no mention of who may lock that spot down now.
 
It gets worse every year. @DTonOB explain yourself 

Yep. Should be limited to pretty much the last Canadian on the roster as a dressed coach and limited use guy. First ni off the active roster. we have a dl coach and I can’t see game teaching pass rush moves or hand work to disengage. 
 Unfortunately it seems like Jake will play till he physically can’t, and will be run out on the field till that happens. 

Yup...only can do one thing now..bull rush and not even that good at that now...has no lateral ability...or technique to make up for that...has absolutely even less pursuit ability...no upside..only continued slide down now...and just blocking young players reps and developing...I see no reason at all for him being here now...even last yr already...and don't say vet leadership...we have more than enough of that and need young guys stepping into that role now anyway

Exactly! I wasted years on mental reps!

Plus you got a couple spots open on O. Would be ridiculous to just bring 2 QBs brand new to the league then cut guys after who never had a chance to make a play. Strev atleast gives these guys a chance I’d imagine 

I'm also an elite athlete, my body just hasn't ever responded the way I want it to 

Might need a year on the pr 

Vince Magri, AGM and top talent bird dog for the Argos, is gone to a scouting job with the Bill's. Massive hit to the Argos front office. One of the league's top scouts. The blows just keep coming. Karma?
Stiggers, Oakman among others and the really good past 3-4 CFL drafts that were the fruits of his recruiting.

Man when is Thomas gonna hang em up

When we stop reupping him...I can't see nobody else signing him to be a big contributor let alone starter...

Streveler? I remember him from the Cardinals and Jets. He'll probably get a spot on this team. 

As an elite athlete, that’s gotta be tough for him when his body isn’t responding the way he wants it to.

Of note on Vann coming out of the SEC:
Averaged 15.1 yards per punt return in 2022.

From what O’Shea said about him during Rookie Camp it sounded like he was limited and it was a chronic lower-body issue.  Not sure it’s something that will get better he’s just trying to squeeze out a couple more shots at making a team.

That Griffin guy was a starter for Calgary last year in five games 

For sure. He had some legit top level college production. 
 
Looks like the new guy Vann signed with the Stamps back in April and was in camp with them until his release 3 days ago 

I thought Hill was nicked up. They may keep him around given his potential
Have you been to TC to see him? Just curious. 

The sdsu connections up here are real strong. 

Win Grey Cup both years. Those other options suck.

Looking forward to seeing how the linebackers do on Monday. Should give us some insight and something to talk about.

I saw a clip of Gemmel making an interception for what that is worth

Yeah I second that. O'Shea is the GOAT when he wins his 5th cup.

I need at least a twonie before I stop.

Like I said...I can go a do a Tanya Harding...I take requests

He did good I mean lawler is that kind of guy. Must be insane to be a db in this camp lol. 
the tug on the jersey could do with out though. 
 
the 3 ol, demski, woli, brady, Lawson that’s a strong 7. Plus ford. Lawson is a beast and played great last year. He should be the starter and see the most dt snaps. But we will Jake that all up I’m sure.
