Bigblue204 Posted May 18, 2023 Report Share Posted May 18, 2023 Corny has all the tools to be a legit CFL qb. This will be the year that decides his fate. The Elks also have Ford at qb who got the job done last year with unspectacular play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He runs well, makes decent reads, has a great arm....just the accuracy thing. He is kind of like Cody Fajardo with a better arm.

Arnold_Palmer Posted May 18, 2023 Report Share Posted May 18, 2023 Why is everyone calling him Corny? Is this a nickname I’ve missed out on. Anyways, he’s a good athlete, with a decent arm, the difference between him and a guy like Collaros, and Rourke is that they use their legs to extend the play so that they can pass down field, to me once Corn Hole feels pressure he uses his legs and puts his head down to try and run, for Edmonton’s sake I hope the coaching staff is working on making him more of a pass first quarterback, especially once the pocket breaks down.

wbbfan Posted May 18, 2023 Report Share Posted May 18, 2023 I always have a bit of hesitance for guys like heavy balls. Heavy tall athletic with a big arm he’s got a lot of raw high value tools. Upside is sky high no doubt. But it won’t take much fulfilling of that to end up backing up in the nfl long term. And it’s hard to see guys like that also having the tangibles needed to become a star. If they had it they would’ve already stepped up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll take the scrappy under sized over achiever vs the maybe wants it doesn’t need it over sized under achiever any day and twice on game day. 18 minutes ago, Wideleft said: “You can’t fall into the trap of potential.

Reminds me of collaros last year talking about being a freshmen in college and evading the rush running around and making throws. Only for his coach to tell him to knock it off because he isn’t that athletic. Noeller and Tracker 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geebrr Posted May 19, 2023 Report Share Posted May 19, 2023 (edited) “ There have only been three players in CFL history who have amassed 2,000 or more receiving yards in a season. Edmonton Elks wideout Dillon Mitchell believes he will be the fourth, and the first to do it since Derrell Mitchell went for exactly 2,000 yards in 1998 with the Toronto Argonauts.” It is amazing how it only takes one statement to start disliking a guy🤫 Edited May 19, 2023 by Geebrr wbbfan, Bigblue204 and Noeller 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoyed watching Ricky get handled up here then go back down and have some very good years in the nfl, but all I remember of him was being very respectful and positive towards the cfl. Both before and after. Talking trash like that about how much production he’d put up isn’t very Ricky Williams.
