Our DL should be improved. TO on the opposite side of JW should improve our pass D.

Nichols doesn't need to be elite, he needs to prove that he can maintain the efficiency that he displayed during our 7 game win streak over a full season. I don't think we want to ask him to produce more than that. Our D does need to take the next step though. We've remade the DLine again. They have to pressure opposing QBs and not let teams run up and down the field on us.

before the draft started, lol.

We definitely can't stop drafting lineman yet.

I don't know. I drank a few beers and was pretty entertained throughout the night.

Starts at 10:45. Goes to 12:15, I believe.

That is a sad top 5 list.

As he should.

I like having former CFL players as part of the coaching staff. So I really liked it when they picked him up and am a little disappointed that we wasted that developmental coaching time with him.

He's a St. Vital kid, or so I read.

This is brilliant. They should have done this years ago.

Last row of the lower bowl near the aisle are the best seats.

I want to say around 6' and 230

We definitely agree on the scheme. Hopefully there are going to be some changes made in that regard to be more effective.

I guess that depends on how effective you feel Sholo was last year. if our new rotation of NI DTs is equal to Sholo's % of snaps last season, our line has improved (assuming Oka improves on Green and Coles performances at DE).

Again, I know it's not the same position, but Oka is replacing Shologan. Thomas/Draft pick doesn't need to be better than Shol. The combo of Oka and DT need to be better than the combo of the rotating DE spot last year and Shol. youre exactly right they moved the low salary spot over one. I think the team is excited about having an impact player at DE rather than whatever Sholo and Cummings were being last season.

I have no idea what you're talking about.

Well, yes it would. and I'd say 125 is closer to what Thomas is making than what it would take to lure Laing into the picture.

Can't pay big money on all 4 positions. that would be nuts.

Chris Williams, I'm guessing

I was positive he'd be gone.

I still expect a DT.

I'm pretty sure he was speaking more generally about players in FA when he said that, not specifically about QBs (also listened to it once a couple of days ago).

If they are already a top prospect, the only place to go is down.

He did play in preseason last year.
