    M.Silverback got a reaction from bearpants in 2023 CFL Draft Discussion   
    I watch a lot of RSEQ football. Bomber fans will like Jeremy Murphy. Great hands, sneaky fast, good route runner, makes tough catches. One of those guys who would put up 100 yards and a couple of touchdowns against my son's team McGill, and make it look effortless. Steps up in big moments.
    And I'm thrilled for Collin Kornelson! I coached him way back in the youth football days with the upstart Valour Patriots football team. Was a great teammate and player then, and still is now.

    Love that we got Kornelson. The profile Tait wrote makes him seem like the ultimate Mafia guy. Just a super nice kid who wants to do things the right way. It nothing else he's gonna fit in really well.

    I love mock drafts, period. I'm glad for any information about potential CFL prospects. It's the only source where I can learn about some of these prospects. And the CFL draft is by far the toughest to accurately predict. Teams are generally not picking the best player available, at least early, given NFL interest. Toughest draft for a GM of any pro sports team in North America because of that. Balancing whether someone can play in the CFL, with will they ever want to play in the CFL, with the positional value. Walters and his crew have been excellent overall.

    I watch a lot of RSEQ football and Alexandre Marcoux, OL, McGill is definitely a Bombers type. Advanced from the invitational combine to the national combine. Athletic, nasty, versatile.

    This draft will be very interesting.  There's about 10 guys that are probably NFL players for how long that last for them.  Will be interesting to see how far they drop.  Bombers could be a team to take a swing on one of them in the first couple rounds.
    There's also a lot of depth in the draft, and Canadian depth in general around right now.  The draft is pretty heavy on linemen both ways and LB's.  Not much for "skill" guys.  Not sure if that makes those "skill" guys more of a target early or not.
     
    Korte-Moore is a great pass rusher in Canada West.  I think he'll be gone before the Bombers pick.  He's a guy that probably isn't quite good enough to get the NFL look, but might I suppose depending on his testing.  He's an end from UBC, kind of hard to judge him because OL play in CanWest hasn't been great last couple years.  Most of the guys who will be CFLers on the line are his teammates.  Don't think he'll play anything but end in CFL.
    Anthony Bennett, Regina by way of FLA and will qualify as a national.  Great rush end in Canada West, on lighter side but could be one of those "ratio breakers" and certainly a guy who will be able to be in rotation.  Let's just say though he feasted on shitty teams (like the Bisons)...didn't do much vs Sask.
    Bemiy from Southern Utah might be gone earlier than the Bombers pick too.  Probably available right away.  Kind of a Sayles type.  Would be able to rotate inside and outside.
    I watched Seguin at UND a lot, he transferred to another FCS school.  Another inside-outside guy but I think likely to be a 3-technique guy in CFL.
    Obiang out of Texas State, where Dobson finished up, is an interesting one.  Nose tackle type.  Will be interesting to see how he tests at whatever pro day's he does, don't think he's participating in any of the Canadian combines.
    Sambu out of Maine, again where Dobson played until his last year, played a lot of OLB, stand up end.  Likely to be a solid special teamer, probably like a 4th-5th round pick, came from a prep school too that a few of our Manitoban players who ended up down south went through.
    Bonhomme out of South Alabama via Indiana via the prep school circuit, huge recruit, another guy who played with a bunch of Manitoban kids in prep school.  Stand up end type, played all LB spots in States but bet he's a rush end up here.  Could be a great value pick mid draft, think he won't get NFL look.
    Schmekel, another Regina guy, greasy looking guy, big but agile, nose tackle type, dominant career in Canada West basically from day 1.  I think he'll kill a lot of guys at the combine 1 v 1.
     
    Bison guys:
    Kornelson...not sure he's a DL in the CFL.  Think a team might turn him around to OG.  He's got the OL body.  Probably run about 5.6 at the combine.
    Francis...3 technique type in CFL I think, played weak end for Bisons, basketball guy, got BIG later in high school so he has pretty good feet.  Could be another turn around candidate to OL.
    Viner-Cox...tweener 3 technique type, played a bit of both for Bisons.  Not sure he has the explosiveness to make the jump.

    Not sure if you're saying best in the Grey Cup or the season. Grey Cup I agree. Very noticeable when he went out. Even the season, I think he's overall a better D-end than Jefferson, but doesn't make the splash plays Willie does.
