It is what it is. Nobody wants to fight with you, dude. They're just questioning the opinion you're trying to present because it's remarkably inconsistent from post to post. Hard to follow. Just want some clarity on where you stand.

Justin Cole released.

Great. Then we still have the same issue, just with a hometown boy instead. (Demski hasn't really shown me much) (that being said, I do think he will improve, so I shouldn't write him off)

I agree. Livestream a strong reprimanding!

Marshall Ferguson continues to show he knows very little about the CFL Draft His mock (two days before the draft!) was awful. Some highlights: Ankou @ 2 to SSK, Augustine @ 15 to WPG, Herdman @ 16 to BC, Boateng @ 19, Luke @ 25 to CGY, McGough @ 30 to SSK, Johnson @ 36 to TOR, Colling @ 63 to TOR It's one thing for an amateur blogger to put together a pretty far-out mock draft, but for the "resident draft guru" to be off in some cases by 5 or 6 rounds when they should have their hand on the pulse of the league and have access to infinitely more information than any of us? Sad. He got 1 pick in the first round right and it was the one that was known beforehand (Ekakitie) and on top of that, 5 of his selections not only weren't in the right slot, they weren't even in the right round.

You are aware the reason people are so frustrated with your opinion is because you have changed your stance on literally every single reply you've made in this thread. You're more than entitled to your opinion and to discuss it, that's what we're all here for. But it's difficult to discuss something when every time someone responds to you, you change your mind about what you think and completely ignore what you've already said.

4/9 first round in my mock, better than most years. And for those scoring at home, Bomberbuzz (0/9) and BlueBomberTalk (1/9) didn't do so hot. HIRE ME DREW EDWARDS

A Riders connection is how Colling got his eligibility ... what goes around comes around

Marouf hasn't played in forever, but he was recruited by the NCAA until everyone learned he doesn't read so good. Academically ineligible forever.

He's just not a good fit as a pro football player.

No surprise Augustine is still around, to be honest. He's a slow player at a position that generally goes American.

Kwaku Boateng finally picked and it's still too early in my opinion

FMB is a futures guy as much as anything and not to bash Medlock, but he's not the best punter.

Let's face it - this draft is not a monumentally strong one. #1 and #6 are great, but it's not a huge coup in a draft class like this. We're not going to get a #1 ranked player. Not even a #5 ranked player, in my mind. Ekakitie has potential, but I'm not expecting an impact guy. I'd like to trade the pick, but at the same time ... I don't necessarily think there's a huge market to trade up to #1 unless someone suddenly falls in love with a guy they know they can't get. I feel like IF we traded the first overall pick, Vandervoort probably goes #1 because someone is trying to get ahead of either BC or Hamilton at 3/4.

We could always use a guy like Judge. Look at Alex Singleton. Players like that can reshape your roster.

Yes, except I would imagine it'll be more of a 65/35 split for Jake.

I gotta say, I'm not thrilled with the "insights" Marshall Ferguson has brought to the table as the CFL Draft guru for the website.

Problem is, there are issues similar to this with most of these players. Ankou is the same way, it's been hinted at that he has very little interest in the CFL.

I'd bet a good chunk Vegas signs Dadonov as well. They're going to be interesting to watch. Dadonov and Shipachyov were almost certainly a package deal. I bet Dadonov signs for same term, maybe 1m-1.5m cheaper annually.

Ah, come on fellas. Shipachyov has the potential to be a legitimate first line center. Artemi Panarin coming over and succeeding has put a lot more interest into bringing guys like this in to play. VS has better numbers than Panarin did, and he plays the middle of the ice ... great signing.

HUMAN RIGHTS ISSUE

Interesting, especially re: Conteh and Julan Lynch. Nothing else surprises me much. Morrison has been jumping up the charts.

I don't much like Boateng personally.

Well, we're ****ed.

I knew that.
