So can MBB get journalist accreditation for the combine... would be good to see first hand updates, etc

And no, I am not suggesting that we pay anyone to go... I remember how that worked out the last time it came up...

Are any of these guys ready to start?

Chapman and Petermann at receiver.  Onyeka (the DB not the DL).  Jackson Bennett as a safety/WIL/SAM.  I think Brett Wade DT out of Calgary could play some snaps, rest of the DL pretty meh.  Maybe Shepley and Korte at OL will challenge to get on the roster and field as rookies.  Rest need time/will be chasing kicks.  Beaulieu from Western killed the DB/REC special teams drill.

Simonise was hot garbage in the 1 on 1's.  I think he's likely to fall depending on how he came off in the interviews.  I can't see many teams taking him over Petermann or Chapman.  At best he's the 3rd receiver off the board IMO.

Hes a pure upside pick, since the fall out with the drug test he hasnt seemed to put any of the effort into football required.  If you could get the most out of all the wrs potential, he'd be the best one. But he might have the poorest chance of ever coming close to that.

You're waiting for something to "click" in his head, like Carter. But, he may never get it, like Carter. 

Too bad. But he's a human being, prone to mistakes. I hope he's happy and never regrets "what could have been". 

But, wow, would it be good to get him and for him to figure things out. A big chance and not the type of personality Walters seems to want to put in the room. I'm okay with his decisions on personnel and personality. 

Wonder if Walters and Co like Bennett and Onyeka?

Well at least we know we should have a shot at one of those guys

Should have a decent shot at a player at 7, or a futures swing for the fences kind of pick.  If there's a run on OL that leaves the top DB and REC on the board I'm sure they won't mind.

I hope they get away with Hardaway’s clients.

Yeah pretty much. Hes still young and I hope he figures it out. 

I look at kozachuk (his hair) and think yeah he fits the bomber mold. I mean who else do we have to rock some awesome locks??? 

Huff will probably get simonise in the 3rd round and he’ll emerge as a star ha... ugh

Why do you say that?  Has it happened before?

 

I'd take Simonise in the 3rd round if he's still available. Big bodied receivers who can run don't come around every day.

Where did he get lemar Durant?

Oh, I thought you said star, not guy who caught  passes for 313 yards.  You should probably work a little harder on not making your agenda so obvious.

So you expect that you can say whatever you want and not be challenged?  I think the thing you are looking for is a blog.  But if you make comments about "stars" with 300 yards of receiving, be prepared to get a little push back.

300 yards in less than 7 games is a very very good pace especially for a cdn...

do some research before you post

Calling someone a star after only seven games is more than a little premature.  Research complete.

Ha nice retreat...  on pace for 800 yards - yeah that’s enough - you’re the one purposely blowing things out of proportion and accusing me of having an agenda - without even knowing who you’re arguing about 

Schtick is so old man

Not sure about a retreat.  I stand by what I said.  If you think he's a "star" after 7 games with  313 yards, I'm going to say that that reason you're saying it has more to do with the jersey he wears, or more to the point, the jersey he doesn't wear.   And you are right, the schtick is old.  But, it's not going to  changes, so,  let's move on...

Good article today on this draft and Walters, highlighting the receiving talent in this draft. I suspect if there is a run on OL, Walters goes WR or DB,  if the Dbs and WR go then OL.  I also suspect that no matter who we pick people will complain.

Yeah insinuating I’m a stamps fans...  weak.

huff picks bpa - it’s a good strategy he gets some nice late picks...  doesn’t mean I don’t like Walters 

and when Demski gets 800 yards this year, I’ll absolutely call him a star

Now we’re done.
