Marouf pick is a bit strange... not ST potential, seems like he's played DE for the most part - just dont see where he would fit in Hall's D Still think Jordan Herdman with this pick would have made sense - the potential upside is just so huge for a late round pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he had stayed eligible and in shape hes probably a high pick or even nfl interest. A lot of off time and out of shape. But still has potential. Id like him a lot more if he was closer to his DE shape. though he was a really big DE at 265 for cis. Dont really see any up side to herdman. Moab all the videos are up in the thread like 3 times over. Edited May 9, 2017 by wbbfan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floyd Posted May 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 Evidentally Tylor Henry is a return guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taynted_Fayth Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 I thought Marouf has been playing for the Hamilton Hurricanes since he last played for Guelph due to the ineligibility? Maybe not as good of a program as CIS level, but as long as he's playing and staying in shape, unless he really let himself go this past offseason? but if that were the case I don't see Walters wasting the pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracker Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 Tylor Henry does not have breakaway speed but reads the field really well. Brandon Thera sure looks like another Loffler- loves to hit. Marouf looks like the immovable object- in the clips provided, he fell on the opposing QB and I could not see the QB at all. The Spooner clips were so jumbled that it was hard to follow him at all. Conteh looks quick but unremarkable. The kicked looks awesome in hang time and appears to be able to aim the ball pretty well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speed is nice but its at least as important to read the blocking ahead and make the right decision as to where to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally i do like the pick, I just see him more of a receiver. He runs really nice routes and has some pretty nice hands, add a little more strength and he could be a solid prospect.

You can teach most guys to follow blocking better, cant teach speed. But in general what ever you do worst is the most important. For me, i wanna see returners catch the ball in the air. Dont let the ball hit the dang turf. Get the ball, secure the ball, run as north south as possible, dont be an easy tackle for the first guy. Its great to look for the next blink etc at return man. But short of an elite return man whose a threat to score any time he touches it im content for that smart, crafty, consistent return man.

Atomic Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 Haha... not sure we'll ever see the day an 8th round draft pick out of UAlberta returns kicks in the CFL. Tylor just needs to worry about staying healthy and catching the ball in camp and he might just earn a practice roster spot and get into a game some time in the next couple years.

He could be a nice deep or screen threat if we give him some time I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't necessarily agree with the assessment. How can the Lions have taken the second (?) best receiver two spots earlier than the best receiver and, as noted, may have already reached his ceiling and still be praised for the pick. To me, that's a miss and, it's a miss on their first pick. I'm not saying Hodge's analysis is correct, just question the rationale of putting BC on top when they didn't get the best available players. BTW, I trust Buono's analysis more than Hodge's. And not giving WPG top spot because they didn't take a receiver? Well, maybe they didn't think any of the available receivers were better than what they currently have. It's not as though you need to draft people in every position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunk went to Guelph so he's watched him quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
