Jesus christ with the you have to earn it ****... what more could Smith have done last year to earn reps? By the end of the season guy was very noticeable every time he was on the field (pretty much only special teams). It's great to say osh will start a Canadian over an American but I don't believe that's universal. Osh loves veterans and guys who are established. He won't take reps away from them unless something forces his hand.

My money is on Tony Jones being an untouchable lock at MLB and the other spot Wilson with a chance Santos l halper beats him out...

To me he's just being a smartass... and yeah the point you make is there too it's not mean, it's just a humorous truth. Most people don't have the required background to properly judge what's happening at training camp. That being said I appreciate every single one of the accounts from camp even if they're full of crap, and all those preseason heroes Mike threw into the post is a fun reminder of how us fans get at this time of the year.

Yeah but prior to coming here the history suggested that collaros wouldn't be healthy enough to make grey cup games Yeah everyone knows he played a long time...

Collaros is getting a lot of cred for team success IMO. I ain't seeing him go off for 700 yards in a game.

Hey I never suggested Jones... my first thought truthfully was dunigan

Collaros now? Lots because collaros looks pretty much toast more often than not. Prime collaros is a different question.

Grey cup winning roster if I ever saw one......

All those are amazing options.... but how do you not go with a qb?

And go.... I know you'll have a mountain of names to bring up

Or you know... build that grass roots base. Make the games an event worth going to... but that kind of thing is hard and takes time. Easier to throw **** at the wall and hope it sticks.

Functional organizations have that communication so I think all the trying to assign credit or blame anywhere for draft picks is futile. I'm sure the scouts and gm brought a whole list of guys they were interested in and got coaches thoughts on all of them and how they might fit them in.

I don't believe it does at all. It's a long season and lots can change from may long weekend to November. Say the #1 team all year loses their starting qb and the #6 team made a few tweaks and went gangbusters to end the season. Which situation you want to be in? The entire summer is now just an extended pre-season. Yeah if you wind up in a 1vs.2 game you get a mulligan but you still need to string wins together in the playoffs to get to the grey cup.

Counterpoint.... I'm always going to cheer for the slow white guy just because.

Chad Kelly needs a wingman too

Yeah imma be honest, if the Bombers don't draft a receiver at some point that's a fail.

I am skeptical about Calgary. Attendance dropped while the team was good. This city is a bunch of fair weather fans.

Collaros showed problems with Buck and Buck is still a good OC. Yeah Hogan sucked but Zach needs to get his performance up regardless.

Not moving on from collaros while we had brown was an error by this team.

The backup plan was chris streveler. I don't think Elgersema factored in at all. Trouble is strevelers knee is ****** and we got nothing
