Game Predictions: Sesito and thorburn have a meaningless fight at mid-ice about 4 minutes into the game... deflating whatever momentum either team had. Chiarot screens Helle for the winning goal. Maurice describes the game as 'real gritty' where 'we gave it all we had,Lowry especially'

Well, so much for my Brandon Bridge will win the starter job theory...

That's a bit rich... Babcock is the only reason this team is close He just split up the rookies... guess we'll see if Matthews keeps scoring

Fun to watch the gong show... but I still think Brandon Bridge is a much better QB than people are giving him credit for and the Kevin Glenn is a pretty impressive insurance policy. That being said, next off-season is going to be a mess once they realize that they need to actually pay a QB... and have to cut most of these signings or ask guys to restructure.

The Steele signing is a massive overpayment by Jones.. some GM needs the courage to be the first stand up and try to restore balance to the market.

Open your eyes, man.

Now you're claiming that Vandervoort is better than Lemar Durant...? This guy's stock has skyrocketed since I said he'd be an awful first overall pick. Oh wait, his ranking actually fell. My bad, didn't check sources. But there is for sure one scout has said he's like Fantuz... just like every receiver every year gets compared to either Fantuz or Clermont... I'll keep an open mind for the combine.

On February 27th when I posted that, he was completely eligible and NO ONE was talking about picking Vandervoort before Simonise if he wasn't NFL bound... but yah, now he's the next Fantuz and going to go first overall. Good one.

I have to laugh sometimes how people get hung up on height and weight of football players... Especially since one of the 'clippings' that I was reading says he was 290lbs in Feb 2017... When was the last time you scouted Ankou? Let me know how his last game went... I'm really curious

Here's my prediction for the bombers targets from the official forum... see I'm not picking on your new favourite receiver that no one on this forum was talking about until today... I like his name. Really think the bombers list is close to this:1. Ankou2. Simonise3. Mulumba4. Vandervoort5. Gray/Woods(Assuming Senior, Auclair and Herdman are NFL bound...)

Of course, I look at clippings and of course, I haven't seem him play... IM IN THE YUKON!!!! You know, its always just a few guys that re-cast my posts as 'expert' or be all, end all... and then make yourselves out like some sort of heroes for standing up for, now, Vandervoort... Now you 'disagree' with me by saying exactly the same thing I just said... we shouldn't pick Vandervoort at #1 but he'd be a fine pick at #6. Then throw in an awful idea to trade down to #3 to get Vandervoort just to show that you don't agree in front of 'the gang'... its pretty old hat.

The same as about 95% of this board... Since, you're apparently an expert on Vandervoort, let me know what makes you think he's the next Fantuz...? Nothing in the limited access I have says he's anything out of the ordinary - probably Coehoorn level from what I can tell. But hey, I'm always open to new ideas, I'll admit I'm wrong if you can demonstrate he's clearly better than Ankou, Woods or Mulumba. And yeah, draft anyone you want... I'm not stopping you. God bless Canada and all that...

Actually the only comment I'm making is that taking a CFL receiver first overall is basically a bad decision... even when it looks like a sure thing. Bauman was a 'generational' receiver... In his draft year, he was clearly the best player. 900 yard season v. Vandervoort's 600 yard... This year, there is no clear first overall but there are very good players - drafting OL, DL or MLB is a much safer bet. Vandervoort at 6 is fine but if he's gone then likely one of your top prospects - Gray, Woods, Bladek, Mulumba, Ankou... is still there Maybe I'm not seeing something in Vandervoort's stats - I'd love to be informed what sets him apart from the consensus top prospects.

My one response out of an entire page now annointing Vandervoort as the next Fantuz is 'shouting down'... okay. We can joke about Bauman but he was a much more promising prospect that Vandervoort currently is... maybe combine will change that. The funny part is that I'm pretty sure no one on this board - especially the guys jumping on me now - would ever actually consider Vandervoort at 1st overall. I'll stick with the rotational DT, a potential RT or a potential starting MLB...

What does a pic of 12 year old Addison Richards have to do with this thread.

I think Connor ends up replacing Perrault with Scheif-Laine... Perrault-Lowry-Armia actually would be a pretty dynamic line - like maybe score sometimes Dano-Copp-Petan

What a ridiculous response. Vandervoort is good but not in Fantuz league. This is not Fantuz vs Adam Braidwood. If you want Vandervoort over Woods, Gray, Mulumba or Ankou... go ahead.

If the Jets have a scoring third line, they win... simple.

Vandervoort at #1 would go down as one of the worst picks of all time...

I'd take Derek Jones over either of those guys at S

Wonder what his reasoning for Ankou dropping? Auclair out of the first two rounds too.
