Simonese I think could grab that outside spot..regardless of ratio...He has the skill set for it and the body type to succeed there...now after a full season on the roster last year, an off-season to digest things after basically being out of the game for the better part of 2 years he should be able to come into camp at 100 percent and just play his game. you seen last year he has the skill as he roasted 2 of the top DB's in the league and he earned his chops on the special teams too..and if it came down to a decision between him and Peterman to be on the roster, or grab a starting spot then the wise bet is on Simonese as he has way more upside and potential, not to mention being in a spot to be more impactful..looking forward to TC to see how much he has progressed

To be honest I think something like this is a long time coming....and expanding "viewership" and potential markets is a good thing in this day and age....it is by no means and was never mentioned as expansion to places outside Canada...just bringing exposure to the game, and as football itself is growing globally, and there are transplanted Canadians everywhere who would follow the league, if they don't already, as well as new untapped markets, with potential revenue...then thats a smart move If it also allows a way for a Canadian to develop if he can't crack a team out of college due to being just too green or raw, but is allowed a season or 2 to season himself and have another crack at it...well then this is a win win situation for all involved

gOOD NEWS FOR pIPKIN AND REALLY alloutte fans, as he is the better QB and would have been screwed having to sit behind Manziel

Yeah I know..but Dressler and Demski played the slot role at same time..hence allowing Rose to fill the Dressler role

Yeah...he is intruiging..but he is also a good receiver..and bigger than Dressler and could slot in that role and e effective. Also if we could work our ratio to allow for a DI to be used on an offensive player then there is the opening to get a multi skilled player like that on the roster The singing of Forde and somehow one of or both of Ackie and Bouka would gi a long way in helping our offence..and defense along with ratio flexibility

would like to see him stick and take over Dressler's role...nice article on him https://www.playerprofiler.com/article/larry-rose-advanced-stats-metrics-analytics-nfl-draft-profile/

Maybe he asked for his release...maybe the Bombers contacted him at one point being on their neg. list and now he sees the AAF is a floundering cost and realizes the CFL may be a better option for him

That's just sad..and the "commitment" makes more sense...I'd be shocked if they completed the season...

they have to take what they can get to remain under cap...or risk losing him for nothing..they have no real choice in matter..

JSK can barely carry Soli's jock strap...hence no big dollar contract from us...Soli and Biggie..With Jeffcoat and Jefferson as your 4 main cogs upfront..good gawd...I'd be happy with waiting put an NFL cut, or going with a recruit, or just bringing in a proven guy like Tolliver...heck even Hazleton..our receiving corp, and offence skilled positions could use an agitating prick S.O.B in it's ranks

Looks dominant and good once you remove Thomas out of the starting equation..not good enough, nor required

Yeah that's the one rub..some injury issues...but then again was it just bad luck?..People clamoured the same way about Neuf but he hasn't missed a game in the last what25..26 games he started since 2017 and last year with play-offs Bouka would be an easy choice for safety, but also field corner too, and hey if we get lucky and sign him..say Ackie and Jones/Conteh prove worthy at safety we could conceivably have 2 Nationals in the defensive backfield or one at safety and one at sam, with adequate in game depth/rotation...You would have to think Bouka and Ackie would both be starters somewhere (Sam and Corner) as well as Jones or Conteh at safety...nice flexability...

seeing that....Walters should be in his ear...options to flip ratio...or help with ratio

I tried to mention that similar thing there...got the typical response...mentioned that the QB had the ball out of his hands the quickest with the dumps, and screens and hitch passes as well as ran fewer plays from scrimmage than the teams with better o-lines, but gave up a few more sacks. They couldn't grasp that concept reflecting in the numbers...if your QB on average has the ball in his hands from 1 to 3 seconds as the play develops on average, as opposed to a team (Sask) who's qb has it maybe 0.5 to 0.8 seconds...well logic tells you that you should give up fewer sacks...also they fail to absorb that QB sacks for the most part are not totally a reflection on O-line play, and works in reverse as well that lack of sacks doesn't reflect O-line play.

Will see as well as a soon to be (next month) 31 year old running back will do with that inferior O-line to Ottawa's with no aerial attack support him. Worn and beat down and largely pedestrian I bet, if he hasn't fallen off the cliff...as I recall hearing from over there that is what happens to running backs that age when referring to our "aging/fading" runningback

I guess that may be an area where they can go cheap with a rookie and have no real impact on the defense...must be high on one of their off-season signings, or have eye on something else, or maybe switching to a modified 3 man front using a nose tackle and a pure rush specialist working from different spots...or overloading an end...

8 hours closer?...good god man do you live above the tree line??..hahahaha

Oops...fixed that..1000 yard I meant but thanks for the jokes lol

thing is...just with his skill-set and size alone...if he would be used and targeted 5-8 times a game....he would be a lock probably for an average of 50-60 yards a game...which translates to a 1000+ yard season at worst with most likely those td's if not more

i hope that Lapo adjsut or augments his scheme regardless, as if he keeps it staus quo teams will be eating our lunch right from the get go knowing what the bread and butter is...should always be ever evolving any way. And any quarter back at the pro level can stretch a field and throw intermediate to long all day long if the scheme and the OC allows for it...saying a pro QB doesn't have a long ball, or can't throw a long ball at this level is baseless and out right false. A guy can't go rogue and do his own thing or he will see the pine pretty quickly. Nichols seems smart enough, and has been in this system long enough now, with a lot of the same weapons that he should be given the ability and chance in games to cal his own plays and not have to follow the script given to him through lapo..But I doubt this occurs

nice...maybe we have an uber motivated guy...I like his skill set and potential...hopefully his year of seasoning will produce this

injury issues apparently for the quality of life after football was the reason why...still not sure what they were last year though

JOKE....the league that is...probably why too the CFL lost basically nobody to that league other than players who really couldn't cut it here

from what I remember didn't Roh sign for a relatively low salary...and was a lste into free-agency signing?

you always have to develop guys though..can be a cheaper replacement for roh next year if Jefferson extends perhaps?...
