I don't know about the character stuff, testing positive, leaving school before that. All I know is that he'll have to earn any playing time he gets here and that bodes well for us. He's got guys like Harris and Bowman who weren't the brightest bulbs when they were young either to take notes from.
Hodge is dumb.
You need Canadians that can play all over the roster.
I want to get a CFL GM so I can do an experiment and never draft an OL. I bet my team would be great. All American OL and a bunch of Canadians rotating through 7 spots elsewhere.
These OL runs in CFL Drafts are basically a meme now.
There's a few guys in this draft who are high end who aren't OL, and there's a few of these OL who are going to bust hard. But everyone just takes OL.
It’s not that linear. It’s not like they are going to hire extra OL coaches or something. Sure there’s a cost to having players at training camp I guess, but weird way to look at it.
The draft picks have no monetary value.
Pretty typical from what I know thus far, but I mean that could be a high 2019 pick given what BC looks like headed into this season. I’d have a hard time seeing them finish higher than 4th in the West unless Jennings gets back on track.
Henoc is a classic bad team player. Good player, always going to be on bad teams because the good teams won’t put up with him. It’s pretty simple when a team says here’s the role we have, here’s the money. You want to be a part of it or you don’t.
Considering pretty much the only guys they can really evaluate in mini camp are receivers and DB's...don't get too horny for "12 new DBs and 11 new receivers." At least half won't make training camp.
Pretty good chance the Bombers would have made the last two Grey Cups if they were in the East too. They would have needed one playoff win at home each year. Gotta talk apples if you're going to make that comparison.
