Booch

the loss I hate the most is Darby....he was so valuable as can play all over...the other 4 to cfl teams (Jones, Admas, Lawler, Stove) are easier to replace and I feel we have already

Marino is awesome tho...better than Stove...they said so

man...is BC really rolling the dice with their QB situation....thats crazy....over spend and suck.....with a great QB......now cheap out with 2 unproven Canadians....what a huuuuuuge gamble

I actually have a gut feeling Mourtado may actually impress this spring

another big fail on Oday...he has to be on hot seat there....

hahaha......with no dline...and questionable DB's???...yeah ok I'd take Biggie/Wilson and Maston over Teitz/Sankey and Moncreif

And I would say ACKLIN is barely average...not a fan and doesnt really bring more than any other mid tier receiver...

yeah he be fine lol....he's lost 3 starters on defense.....1 of them to the NFL, and a rotational guy (Kongbo) to NFL....Offense has lost I guy to NFL....one guy to Elks...One to Ottawa....Harris still isnt gone...

or he wanted a legit chance to win

I talking production at the end of the season in total...not a "on a pace for"...big difference.....figured you of all people could grasp that...and on a pace for generally u take out the low and high, and use the remaining to better get a mean we need to in essence replace what Lawler and Adams gave us...and Ellingson and Bailey will do that, and then some.....Woli and Demski are still here...so thats a non issue.....and I am sure a new guy...or a combo of whoever fields the 5th spot get us 500 or more yards in production....not a tuff challenge

Ottawa has totally re-tooled...now hopefully Lapo dont eff it right up...no excuse for him this yr...this is his last kick at can as a HC if he flops

in 2 days...theres gonna be some bargains...and thats where we will fill some possible potential holes if we chose to go that route.....but I can see Walters saying we good and keeping that buffer for NFL returnees....I expect Grant back as well as returner and spot offensive play

Ellingson is proven...Lawler not so much yet....i sure wanted him to prove it here, but that ship sailed....wasnt worth 300k tho....lets see 2..3 years of that to anoint him the best I bet combined you get 2000 yards and 12 TDS minumum from Bailey/Ellingson.....I bet you dont see that with lawler/adams combined Factor in last year....Ellingson and Bailey combined for 24 games...99 receptions and 1366 yards...and Lawler /Adams 24 games 90 receptions and 1455 yards...if anything its a wash, but I think 2022 our duo out produces

well i'll eat my words after the season...but I bet the stats combined will replace it....see what totals each pair accumulates...and yeah...we need to find 1 guy to replace in the WR group...I sure we can find 600 yards some where

Yup....guys we lost to other teams Darby is already replaced...if someone unseats Maston...we are that much better and he slides to safety until BA back Jones got bumped out of starting lineup after Rose came back...and was 6th DB in essence...Houston can fill his role....I liked what I saw of him. Stove is/was good for us, but we fared fine without him, and DT are easy to find...and a new one will be cheap.... Desjarlais hurts....but we had no chance in that one, but Grey is more than adequate and plays with same mean streak and aggravates the hell outta Dlineman...we will see minimal drop in our line play. Lawler hurts, but no way we need to pay that price, and Ellingson will replace that production....and maybe Meridith is back and wows...Jackson perhaps..Agudusi...some new guy...we need to find 1 receiver...big deal

yeah...I have full confidence in our scouting network now to replace and reload..5 yrs ago nope...now...no concerns And you cant continually stay status quo and continue to win...we did that for 2021...2022 we keep the keys...and reload..re-tool..Ellingson/Bailey is a upgrade to Lawler/Adams in the grand scheme....Maston will ore than adequately replace Darby...Darby was brought in to replace Maston...no concerns there... Harris leadership and heart will be missed, but I bet at end of the yr we are either number 1 or 2 in rushing again And hands down we still have the best O-line and with Davis leaving the cats..we still have best dline....and we are missing only Alford and BA (till likely Aug) in the defensive backfield who started the Grey Cup

show me who better than Collaros...Bryant..Yoshi..Neuf....Couture...The Jeffs...Biggie...Rose...Nichols...whos a better Canadian RB than the 2 we resigned...same with Demski...who upgrades him Canadian wise....some people just never happy

they didnt need to get better...maintain and augment......if we had to replace all those starters we resigned...that would have been huge on open market...we would be way worse for it...we doing just fine..

we signed our own guys already which cost us..and Maston is back and was the SAM before Darby...and will be back there...so its a tough loss, but we will be fine there

THAT was a reference as to whats left for Riders to shore their line...I fine with Sayles and the new recruits and Walker/Rose

and Laurent is off the table now...not much else left as Stove is basically as good as gone to BC

he always says that...but thats also as they have numbers in with guys, and need to have it available if they choose our offer..u dont just toss money everywhere and then have a guy u really want say yes...and u spent that allotment on a shiny new impulse buy

he has done that in the past

screw it....use harris money we had set aside that he balked at...and whatever we have left for others and toss it at Strev....we can recruit another DB and receiver...I sure we can scrap 250k or so to manage that...add in a per start bonus too if ZC gets IR'd

yeah...we hooped if all we have is Brown as experienced back up....yikes
