Walters completely wasted a pick on Gray at 8 and is still making out like a demon in this draft.... amazing.

I'm liking the Ekakitie pick more and more... reading about all the crap that guy has gone through in the states, I think he'd be pretty excited about a long career in Winnipeg... Still prefer Bladek first overall - but he has been out of football for a year plus... and if Judge develops as a linebacker the way everyone hopes - he'll ditch for the NFL at his first chance

Pretty neat. Probably a massive waste of time though

If Walters didn't pick Waggoner with 'last years' number one... I think its a legit pick.

Or almost catch the endzone fade route late in the game?

Or is everyone GM that excited about Vandevoort that they're all downplaying his skills... ? Just listening to Dunk's podcast ... these picks make the most sense of any mocks I've seen. http://3downnation.com/2017/05/06/3downpodcast-2017-cfl-draft-preview/ 1. Wpg - Ekakitie 2. Sask - Judge 3. BC - Woods 4. Ham - Bladek 5. Edm - Schram 6. Wpg - Gray 7. BC - Luke 8. Cal - Colling 9. Ott - Evan Johnson

Hopefully closer to the cap means they are signing Trouba long-term... but I don' think so. Jets will drift along, saving money on the RFA deals until they are 6 months away from UFA and then trade them for more picks and a prospect.

http://www.tsn.ca/cfl-draft-seven-thoughts-about-seven-positional-groups-1.744993 Duane Forde with last minute analysis... His top prospects are - Judge, Behar, Ekakitie, Luke, Colling, Spooner, Wright Interesting that now both Dunk and Forde are not ranking Vandevoort as clear #1 REC and maybe not even first round

Reminding us yet again of how lucky we are to be rid of Sleepy Joe. http://3downnation.com/2017/05/07/grading-analyzing-re-drafting-2013-cfl-draft/

Yeah, that was a weird one... not really a lot of meaningful film for him after his season Will still be a great draft pick next year... happy just to be back in football. Calgary will end up with him in the second round after everyone over-thinks his value ha

I'd be interested in trading one of our first round picks to Mtl/Tor for their first rounder next year... supposedly a very strong OL class coming

Coombs and 10 for 1 and 23

“Assuming status quo moving into this year, depth on both sides of the line is always important,” said Walters. “Interior defensive lineman, a defensive end that can add some depth, offensive line is, every single year, about adding and developing, adding and developing. “Receiver is an interesting one. We only started one (Canadian) receiver last year… that will be an ongoing question, I’m guessing. Generally, the Canadian receiver plays the wide-field receiver and there’s just not enough footballs to go out there. The days of the Canadian slotbacks having impacts on the game are minimal and I think teams will always be looking for that Canadian slotback that can be a 1,000-yard receiver, but it’s been a few years since you had an impact Canadian slotback come into this game but you’re always looking for one of those, as well.”

Ratiobreaker and Bomber Buzz not liking Ekakitie at #1... Eric M.‏ @EricM_CFL May 4 More Stayed up late watching Iowa game footage of NT Faith Ekakitie. I simply do not see the traits of a top-5 player. Round two grade. #CFLDraft

Maybe negotiating with Ekakitie's agent is just a clever ruse to throw everyone's draft boards off.

The Pentonator. Reeks of charisma. Hustler and Friesen...?

I don't see how you can pass on him at 6 - but I like Mulumba there too.

Sunderland talking about trading down...

I think the Leafs go after Tavares...

Jets just paid Stafford 2 years at $4.5 - he can't be worse than that

We should pick Herdman, Morrisson and Conteh too so that they never play for Sask... For a team that essentially wasted - what 5, 6 years of picks...? I wouldn't call anything 'house money' If they are going with Ekakitie, I'd really look at one of Judge/Mulumba, Behar/Vandevoort at #6 Then one of Schram, Roy or Spooner at 15

Good thing Scheifele is our franchise player then...
