There is a market for sure. AAFs problem was lack of promotion.
People were watching.... AAFs business model was flawed.. It was 100 percent based on the idea they would be an nfl developmental league. Nobody told the NFL that tho... Theres a market for football there.. Im not convinced XFL is in those markets tho.
Go look at Carolinas Playoff history.. Its insane. They either make the conference finals or cup final or dont make the playoffs... Seriously. Its crazy.
That was my other thought. There isn't many teams who start a Canadian RB so maybe Oliviera or Lyles would be there at 25 and you improve your CDN ol depth at 14. I see them wanting an OL who u send back to school tho.. A true developmental type.. 14 seems early
Id go BPA at 4...
BPA at 5...
If Betts is there at 4.. You almost have to take him. It would be dumb to not take him. Bombers i think are in a spot where they can take a flyer on a guy who they might not see soon if ever.
Hustler and RR must not have been watching cuz that was an incredible 0 0 game.. More back and forth. Goalies were outstanding... That was the best 1 0 game ive ever seen.
Tucker Poolman if healthy is NHL ready. Niku will start.
If im the Jets.. Since my D zone play was awful... Buff and Josh are the only guys i keep. I move Trouba.. I dont sign Chiarot because hes not good enough.. I let Morrow go.. I move on from Myers. I prob sign Beaulieu but not at what hes currently making.
Samberg isnt nhl ready.. In another year he probably is but hes not a Makar or Heiskanen or guys like that who would just jump to the NHL right away.
Trouba gets u a D in return id think... Maybe u move a guy like Little and or Perreault.. Id also buy out Kulikov.
Sure. Hes a strong guy in the D zone. Hes a great shutdown D. But his instincts are poor. First pair shutdown D on one of the worst D zone teams in the league.
Well the scouting report on him says his hockey IQ was not one of his strong suits. I think when u look at a guy like Morrissey or even Niku and compare what they do to Trouba its even more obvious. Also just listen to him talk. Hes a good D man, his hockey IQ is just lacking tho. He makes lots of dumb decisions like Myers, another low hockey IQ guy.
Id pass on Elomimian. I feel our $$$ would be better spent elsewhere.. With that said, it would depend on the deal. Sort of an incentive laden contract with a base of about 90 to 100 k.. Id consider it.. I likely would have signed JSK tho if i wanted to spend money at WIL.
