  1. Both would start on any team in the league...thinking otherwise is foolish I comfortable with the starters at LB yup...depth behind we don't know as not even a day of TC has occured yet...let alone the full TC roster and 2023 draft picks ..so judging anything now and doin a forward looking prognosis based on the past is pointless and proves nothing...and have seen many guys come back and play just fine after an Achilles rebuild..a slight tear that requires no surgery has wayyyy better prognosis long term than a restructured one...and takes way less rehab and coddling...as it was Wilson was working out..running and doing things full bore by last game or 2 of season but was not rostered because he would have needed several solid weeks of playing to be game effective...at that point in season there was no time
  2. have to say it again...an injury that didnt require surgery to reconstruct...and he wasnt a starter or on active roster often in first yr, and worked into the role in his second....and just turned 30....so in his prime....no worries there....and he was the biggest loss to team last year.....moreso than BA.....
  3. nothing but good....and its a vehicle to use as a write off as well if losses incur....they need a deep pocketed owner there....invested in the province
  4. they have had a horrible off-season...there was available upgrades at many positi0ns where they have a huge need....and swing and a miss at all of them....and If they consider Harris..Godber..Blake..Michah Johnson...Walker...heck even Weinike as doing admirable work they are delusional....every instance of all those signings is settling....not re-loading....that not to mention every coach basically saying thanks...but no thanks to them...
  5. he's been in decline since 2019....and in that environment...and the likely losing and crap atmosphere with more than a good chance of more turmoil in multiple areas....can you really see him being a lead by example guy?....I cant...unless the example is similar to the clowns they have had their the last several yrs
  6. So they have Vets Weineke...and Walker....sandwiched with Lenius..KSB and...Bane??...or some other TC hopeful maybe??.....ewwww....yuck....and what is depth behind that?.....have fun Harris....HAVE FUN....AND BE SAFE LOL We could line up Agudosi...Bolo...Mcrae...Heiligh and some rando reciever and have a better well rounded unit.....man that Sask off-season has to be classified as an epic failure all around
  7. yup...classic example of the 2.00 a.m scramble...hahahah...what a pathetic signing....wonder how much he got them for??
  8. that team is gonna be a hot mess this yr....and it's just not the typical hating cause it's the Riders....its just looking at it as a whole...top to bottom....and you cant honestly say they are in a good position, or going to be a top 3 team in the west....they will be hard pressed to hold off the Elks
  9. And hopefully 18 games outta Jeffcoat, and as much s Rose was maligned here....healthy right out of the gate with a full camp for Lawrence....we gonna be just fine on defense....we were basically playing banged up all yr, and missing key pieces...and basically still had leagues best unit
  10. yup...I sure he will bring in bodies...we had a weak and depleted secondary ..for yrs...constant turnover...yrs where we had 10 diff guys starting....since that circus time we have found Alford..Nichols, BA, Houston, Mike Jones, now Parker and have also seen value and how to best use guys like Taylor, Darby, Maston and now Lawrence...where other teams seen no use/value in them and mis-used their skills....i'm not to concerned on March 1ST....Nope
  11. but....we dont know who they plan to bring in to camp...maybe they have a guy...or 2 who "verbally" committed if nothing pans out by TC for them...You do recall that Stove was added...what the week before camp....I'm almost thinking days before actually as thats what he was doing...unheralded and hardly mentioned...but it panned out well....so hard to judge until we see complete camp roster And hey....after we see how all we have developed after another camp...maybe we swing a trade...crazier things have happened...some team may sustain an injury and need a body...and we may have one worth dealing Don't underestimate Hansen's presence back this yr either, he is a more than adequate rotation piece to give our guys in game rest, and has lined up inside and out I not worried about the secondary in the least, its a good mix of young guys, and vets, none of whom is overly old, and not worried about Rose either. Lawrence was a right steal last year and after a full camp will be one of the top corners in the league this yr. I wanna see tho a new stud heat seeking missile DI Linebacker, and back to the main issue...we need at the very least, and stud DT who moves bodies and takes up a lot of attention...we have that...we be top 1...2 defense in league again, as based on the offence..they are gonna get a lot of time to rest on sidelines and not get bagged out
  12. I'm sure Hansen will play prominent rotation role...he was very effective and key in that role in the previous cup runs I'm not concerned in the least with Lawrence..was injured in Ham a bit..then with the odd use of what they had he was much like Darby ..a guy more than good enough..yet not used properly
  13. And I also doubt Bailey went from 130k to 90k...if anything he may have took a slight shave...that Rider pbp guy tho is a right tool...and should be held accountable..or canned by that turd organization for speeding false aquasations. And accept the fact players will only go there for way over market value. And sometimes even that isn't enough.. they are trash thru and thru
  14. I supposed to get mine replaced...well they told me that 10 yrs ago...been holding off...dropped 30 pounds or so of playing weight and eleviated some the discomfort...but was wondering the wait time..u in Winnipeg?
  15. Yeah MBT was very hit and miss...more miss than hit...and prob last guy you would want mentoring a new to the CFL QB.. Kelly will be as raw as raw can be...and is gonna struggle once teams see a few games of him as the full time starter And man if he falters...or gets hurt...who's behind him?? They gonna be in a world of hurt..and is Harris the lead back there too this yr? Ouch
  16. Kicking unit missed it, as there was a missed block....resulting in a blocked kick...team effort...just as when a kick is made....you have protection....good snap...good placement by holder allowing the kicker to not deviate from his timing/method....was ball cockeyed on tee....were laces wrong way....did holder get it down and set a milli second too slow?....lotsa factors have to be ideal. Almost prefect to make a kick, and slight issues from this 9 times outta ten have bad results.....people take for granted each FG/Convert attempt every game and the precision that goes into it....but when a kick is missed the kicker carries the burden....sure there are times when it is 100% a blatant pooch job by the kicker, but many times it's a combination of, or a particular miscue that throws it all off In the Grey Cup we dont know the result, as one glaring miscue (missed block) made it huge catastrophic error.....The miss vs Montreal on the flip side, to win that game was a bad kick...plain and simple...just as the long range one versus the Riders was a perfect one....it happens If anything and blame finger pointing/bitching about a player should be done it should be right at our QB's feet as that was the reason we lost, and don't hear the pundits crying for a guy to come in and challenge...take his job...That being said any other game save for the Grey Cup or West Final he would never have seen the field, but we went with the horse who brought us there even though he was severely limited in what he could do...but hats off to ZC for gutting it out and doing his best...but that right there was reason we lost...
  17. yeah not too sold on it being a sure miss....watch any field goal...especially ones in conditions...ball rarely is a straight line....and u adjust for conditions....I think if Sayles makes that block...we are sipping on the 3 peat....my opinion but I have seen a lot of field goals both from being on the field and in the stands, and on T.V and you can't say it was gonna miss....or be made for certainty....but if not blocked...I feel like it was going thru....at worst through the endzone
  18. Yeah...that will be a one and done yr again..nobody cares...and nobody is gonna wanna hemorrhage money running it
  19. As per Craig Dickenson: Last week the Riders added another Canadian receiver to their arsenal with the signing of Juwan Brescacin and Dickenson believes that he was an under the radar type of signing. “Not too many years ago he was thought of maybe the best Canadian receiver on Calgary’s roster. ” Back in 2018, Brescacin had 35 receptions for 567 receiving yards and three touchdowns with Calgary. Another former Stampeder, the Roughriders have high hopes this season is Shawn Bane Jr. Dickenson said they plan to use him in a similar role that was occupied by Kyran Moore in 2022. “An inside receiver position where he can get balls on handoffs, he can run vertical routes and clear the tops. ” The biggest free agent signing for the Roughriders at wide receiver was Jake Wieneke. Even though he is a newcomer to the green and white, Dickenson thinks the former Alouette will make a seamless transition to Saskatchewan. Does he not realize 2018...was like 5 yrs ago?....and their is a reason KSB didnt get a sniff, and Lenius barely got his cleats tied before he was set free?...from the article boasting how he likes the thought of his Canadian receivers and the big fish they added...Jake W....that he has amassed a real sad sack group, with very little upside?....my oh my....can't wait to read his O-line musings next
  20. That right there would have been the only quick fix they could have made...costly, at expense of pretty much anything else of value...tho they didnt really pay a proper amount as is for value...over payed for average value....so guess that is sorta moot....but was never gonna happen landing 3 oline studs who would have instantly put them in top 4 olines in league...sucks to be them
