In terms of what I think you can expect of Briggs and Jones ... Ceiling is a bit higher in each case because the comparables didn't quite meet potential but think Yurichuk and Beswick
Great move if it is. They have Hecht/MacDougall right now, and I'm not sure either is capable.
It just makes sense. Like I said on Twitter I don't think 1 was the goal, I think they dealt to get ahead of Montreal AND BC, which they did.
Why would they deal a guard to draft a center to move their center to guard?
I know they love the guy and nobody wants to give up a roster player, but if I'm Walters, I'm hardballing Buono. I don't want two picks for the #2, I want #5 and a guy like Haidara.
oh i agree, 2 picks isn't enough. I was thinking like #5 and westerman. But haidara works too.
I'd rather have Haidara to be honest.

Can't wait to hear what this is. Anyone care to speculate?
Wouldn't that be the news that CFLPA is suggesting a strike vote? It's already 1:20 PM in Sportsnet's EST time zone and that news came out about 90-120 minutes ago.
Figured we could get one central thread going for all the articles, tweets, thoughts and comments of the day. I encourage everyone to join the chat tonight as well.
I saw the Vikings just released him this morning. He'd be great.
Maybe I'm just reading too much into it, but that could be a reason they couldn't give out a name yet last night and Lawrence would be a near perfect fit for what Etcheverry wants to do, even more so than Kuale.
I agree with you, but the catch is that I don't think people are sure of whether or not Goossen is a sure fire starter.
I don't know if this is a fair comparison, but Goossen basically comes across as Pencer in terms of projecting a developmental curve.
