Gotta think they will be making some cuts this weekend to narrow the battles down and give the guys a real shot in the 2nd preseason game.
Hard to really prep guys to play a game when there's 5 full sets of guys getting reps.

Could go either way on Collaros.  Think he wants lots of reps so might go a series or two into 3rd Q.  Probably smarter to give him like 3-4 series, Streveler about the same then Wilson and maybe a series or two for Barriere.
I don't think MOS views playing Collaros as much as he wants as a risk like most of us probably do.

I’d be sad if they cut Wilson though.  Have rarely seen a guy show up as a CFL rookie who looks to have legit potential as a passer..not a thrower or scrambler.

Well if who is on 6 game now stays on for full 6 games they have about 2/3 of a solid starter salary open.

I thought Rivers had the least burst of any of the DE’s but he’s really good at getting hands off him.  Just not sure he’s athletic enough to be an end up here.  Maybe try him inside.
 

I don’t find Barriere to be a toolsy QB from watching a lot of his NCAA career to now.  He’s nowhere near the raw talent level of VAJ.
He’s kind of slightly above average across the board nothing too special arm, mobility or run wise.  Remember Chris Leak who was UF QB before Tebow?  Was with Als for a couple years.  That’s who he reminds me of.
I like NDSU’s current QB a lot more and they run a more pro style pass scheme.  New head coach is the guy who called plays for 3 solid pro QBs there too.  Cam Miller is the guy.  He’ll be CFLer.

Yeah not really a fan of keeping so many guys at practice if you're goal is to eventually get ready to play real games in like 2 weeks.  Either have some guys getting so few reps it's pointless or you're splitting reps so much you're prepping really no one to play.
Need to be able to evaluate by now to get down to 3-4 guys in all the position battles.

Would be silly to cut a better player because a guy was on the neg list for a long time.
Hodge's evaluation of Streveler really speaks to his lack of basic knowledge on how the game is played.
He said something like "Streveler will never be a guy who drops back and works through four reads."
Nobody is working through more than 2 after the snap.  After that it's a scramble.  Everything is pre-snap.  Most teams are cutting the field in half based on pre-snap reads.
Just such an underhanded and ignorant attempt to **** on a guys ability as a passer.

Barriere was #2 and played some for Michigan in USFL.  Spent 22 and 23 with Michigan and New Jersey in USFL.  Came free when USFL folded.

Hard to tell much from this game really.  Some solid individual efforts but coaches will be looking at them in context of what the assignments were.  That context is important.
I loved the physicality of Gemmel out there.  Kind of reminded me of Lobendahn.  Heavy player you can tell guys playing against him wouldn’t have a fun time.
Wilson looks like a CFL QB.  Like both his comfort in pocket and on a rollout.  Solid arm, mobility when he needs it.
Barriere looks like a guy who played at a great school and fit the system.

Of note on Vann coming out of the SEC:
Averaged 15.1 yards per punt return in 2022.

From what O’Shea said about him during Rookie Camp it sounded like he was limited and it was a chronic lower-body issue.  Not sure it’s something that will get better he’s just trying to squeeze out a couple more shots at making a team.

Ontaria Wilson has got a lot of reps with first team O.
That’s a pretty good indicator of who is getting the longest looks for better or worse.
