Oh have I got some news for you...

To me it’s pretty obvious what their plan is on offence this year. It’s going to be a package/committee 12th man.
5OL (Bryant, Wallace, Ellsbury, Neufeld, Broxton)
1QB (Collaros)
1RB (Oliveria)
2 American Receivers (Pokey, White)
2 Canadian Receivers (Demski, Nield)
and then 12 is going to be one of Chris-Ike (RB/FB), Daniels (TE/FB), Clercius (Receiver) or Cobb (Receiver) depending on the situation and play call.

Sadly...this the stuff we shoulda been doing last yr...smh
Visions of Ceresna and Lawson consuming the attention of the entire enterior oline...and a rb kept in for pass protection...and having athletic ends attacking 1 on 1...or cutting inside with a dude like Griffin or Woodbey flying off the edge...delicious

similar vein but less restrictive. The CFL as a whole could benefit from trying to develop QBs. 
 
Next time the cap is going up, the league should look at adding an extra roster spot for a developmental QB that is on the roster but is a gameday scratch.  Can be American or Canadian. Then teams designate 1 player as their developmental QB. Ideally it's the same player all season, but if you set the salary to say 200k and then just divide it up by the season duration, you'll maybe entice some decent QB prospects who want to continue their career and not make CFL practice squad money. 

It's not that they aren't important at all. But the way people are talking about Thomas and acting like the DL has no hope now is over the top. The biggest factor to how well the DL will do will be the talent that is or is not on it.

Yes and no. Some positional coaches are far more important, like QB coach. The 2 closest after that are both Line coaches. Line play is the next most important after qbing, but the adjustment to the game up here is big and we don't get polished blockers or pass rushers from the ncaa any more. Pretty much every imp T and pass rusher is a project of one sort or another. 
Having a sub-optimal DL coach when we have JY and Hall running the D isn't the biggest deal. Thats part of why I'm not really worried about Jake. The bonus from him not being on the field any more is way bigger than any loss from having him coach the DL in the worst case. Player success doesn't directly translate to coaching success or failure either. A lot of great coaches have played but couldn't perform at the highest levels of their position group. 
 I would love to have a great DL coach. I would even go more modular with the defensive coaching staff, have a Coverage coach, a front coach (Jake) and a pressure/pass rush coach. Even bringing in some one like that just for camp could be a big boost. Some one who can coach the finer points of rushing and winning battles with technique and athleticism.
