Gotta imagine Johnny Patrick is going to be in the running for Demond's open spot.

Khalil Bass - Road to the CFL
The fact that an Etcheverry scheme couldn't fit a player like Bass in says a lot about Etch. Then again ... how did Ottawa, Saskatchewan and Edmonton all pass on this guy too?

4 goals for Connor. Wow.

he wasn't unhealthy last year?

I'm of the mindset that it can be detrimental to have your Canadians all stacked on the DL like that. I'd rather rotate Laing in if we had him, not start him.

I can't see how we really have any questions about the DL - this is the most solid our DL has been in forever. I guess if you have reservations about the one rush end spot, but I'm pretty happy with Justin Cole myself. Our D (on paper) actually looks incredibly strong and camp hasn't even broken yet. OL still a concern for me, that's about it - but that IS a big one.

had a moment to look it up this is the guy I was thinking of definitely my favorite receiving prospect Walters has ever brought in

Bombers FA Signings 2016
I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure I also remember this guy from when he was with the Bengals. I'll look it up after work unless somebody else wants to but I'm pretty sure he's got potential to be the deep ball threat we've been needing. This could be the guy to push Denmark out, if it's who I'm thinking of. There was some guy on the Bengals who averaged something ridiculous like 50 or 60 yards on all his touchdown catches in college. Total YAC monster. I think that's this guy.

He definitely wins the award for strangest looking guy we've signed this offseason.

I didn't insult you. Unless of course, you're implying you insulted Iso because all I said was that you do the exact same thing you were accusing him of.

There's a difference between arguing facts and arguing opinions. It seems like when it boils down to discussing opinions, you choose to believe yours as fact. You make a comment right at the end of your post about needing to pretend to be stupid about a subject you're knowledgeable about - that kind of says it all - just because you're knowledgeable doesn't mean you're the only one around with a valid opinion. Opinions don't always have to be right or wrong - and trust me, you don't need to tell me of all people about the concept of someone having an opinion that is not justifiable. But not every opinion fits into that mold. If someone says "I think X could've happened if not for Y", you're more than welcome to say "I don't agree" but you tend to lean more into the "you're flat out wrong" category. And well ... if you think it's rare for you to get worked up ... I guess you are just a naturally aggressive person because the manner in which you approach a lot of discussions is very hostile and if that's not you getting worked up, I frankly don't know what else to call it.

This is kind of more or less what you do too, man. It's really the main reason I don't post in the general discussion forum much, truth be told.

Lawless article on officiating and rule changes
Until the referees actually figure out what the hell they're doing on the field AND in the command center, this would be a disaster.

We've had this guy before too.

We might be looking at an import guard, but that will not be this guy. In my opinion anyways ... that's a real CFL tackle frame. I could see Martin and Hardrick getting looks at guard though. Maybe though ... who knows ... I'm really just guessing.

Bingo. Lots of work to be done prior to draft day, mostly in regards to determining what kind of OL depth we're going to see. If a few of the fringe guys like Jamieson and Intzandt establish themselves ... there could be some worthwhile OL picks in that range. If not, it's going to be tough because Dunk is right - the good ones could go very early.
-
CFL Draft
We have to find a way to use a pick to get a OL on the roster. Maybe not both picks, but it'd be a tough pill to swallow if we can't get one. This weekend should give us a better idea of the OL talent available.
