    I’d rather have Burbacher than another RB.
     

    Other than that I like the picks.

    Didn’t love taking Clercius at first. After reading about him, and JBR’s opinion, I’ve come around. Seems like he’s a replacement for the things Bailey could do. 
     

    Glad they took a few OL to develop, depth is very thin now. Still a crap shoot, but odds are at least one of those guys will be serviceable by ‘25. 

    I'd be blown away if the Bombers use Clercius as they did Bailey. Well this year anyway. I don't see any way we go 3 CND rec with only 1 for depth.

    Problem is there's like one guy who is ready to play who will likely be in CFL camp in May, Dumoulin-Duguay.  Una is a maybe.  Nkanu I think will not be much of a pro, decent feet, very weak hands.  Wallace too is another medium floor, very low ceiling type.  Doesn't really have CFL OL skills in terms of movement.

    Most teams will want guys who can play pretty quick.  And there's not really a Dayton Black type in this draft who is raw but with huge upside.  Maybe like a Bosse or Mueller.  But lower upside.

    I don't think SSK is looking for a starting OL, they need depth and someone who can potentially start next year.

    I’m not concerned with our ability to find play makers on the dl. It’s not the hardest spot to recruit and we’ve done it very well in the past, both with in the cfl from down south and in both drafts. 
     I just hope that we get unstuck from mediocre players and systems. I am encouraged by the moves this off season that this will improve as well. 
     

     Probably still have our usual “what’s he doing on the roster” guy. Hopefully not starting. Maybe it’ll be Schmekel. 
     

    It’s going to be interesting to see how the fifo crew manage with the largest amount of roster turn over yet. 
     

     

    He's already on it....I hate to say it, but Thomas.

    Bc  lost fewer players than we did and did a better job, for now. replacing them. 

    ie lost  Betts  >  Robertson 

             Rhymes> Stanback (giving them more balance)   

             Whitehead .>   Mcinnis

             Edward -Cooper  > Ciante Evans

           Baron > Richardson

    We were neck and neck with them in the standing most of the year, whether we repeat will depend on our recruiting

    There's exactly one upgrade in that picture and he's coming off 2 Achilles injuries. Again, I don't see it. I want break down every one of these but don't have the time....so I'll stick with one. 

    Stanback isn't the back he once was. And comparing him to Ryhmes is laughable at best in terms of production. That's ignoring that BC regularly ignores the run game.

    The players above were still starters, and when you introduce new players, especially those without cfl experience there os a learning curve. Luckily enough we have a strong coaching and scouting crew to help with that

    Regarding Stanback obviously they feel he's an upgrade to what they had,but I agree his best years are done

     

    Jeffcoat and grey will be replaced with players who have CFL experience in the Bomber systems. Houston likely as well. Maybe not Bailey...

    wrong....soooo wrong....hahaha...or is that arcasm?...I'm thinking it may be after rrading it a second time....if so....carry on....I was just speed reading stuff as I am in and out of here fast for most part

    Also in regards to measureables and combine numbers/reported numbers...take all with grain of salt...especialy 40 times....Straight line speed with no ball in your hands, or a target you are pursuinf doesn't really mean a lot....what you do with a ball....in and out of breaks...or that extra gear when fluidly running...thats where you look...same with d-line...first step...how and where they place and use hands in regard to that...and who has a real good tilt...thats where u find your speed demons off the edge

     

    Heavy sarcasm. Lol.

    I personally couldn't think of any CFL players, former/present who played defense that got into trouble for cannabis related "crimes" while also struggling academically, who then became a star or hell even a HOF player. That has never happened.....there are also exactly zero CFL players who currently consume large amounts of cannabis during the season.....that also never happens....I've never personally seen all star players in cannabis shops purchasing products that are meant to be inhaled....not me....no sir....the CFL would never put up with those dope users.
