The tsn/live streams have been gong shows, and painfully slow. Making a big show of picking through the best of what’s left is like a tired old trope. An attempt to match the glitz and hype of the NFL draft with a production that is cable access level, what's not to love? wbbfan, JohnnyAbonny and JCon 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booch Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 we need to go defence heavy...front 7...and not plugs who only translate to a few yrs of decent ST play A flyer on an Oline guy who may take 2 yrs to get here, and a guy who has no NFL interest whatsoever....I also dont look at certain players with no upside coming into the pro atmosphere, as thats something you can't assume...Much the same as guys who appear to be ready to roll and fizzle away a yr and half later... After round 1...maybe 2...after seeing some of the dust settling I would like to see us swing a trade as well if in our case remaining picks are just picks for the sake of having picks and dont fill a need for us wbbfan, Stickem and Piggy 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a damn good way to put it. In general while I enjoy drafts a bunch of sports I follow, the lay out and time seems like a dinosaur. I feel like a really good podcast style setting with portions that involve each team and their picks in a fast paced format would reach todays target demo for sports a lot better. 24 minutes ago, Booch said: we need to go defence heavy...front 7...and not plugs who only translate to a few yrs of decent ST play A flyer on an Oline guy who may take 2 yrs to get here, and a guy who has no NFL interest whatsoever....I also dont look at certain players with no upside coming into the pro atmosphere, as thats something you can't assume...Much the same as guys who appear to be ready to roll and fizzle away a yr and half later...

Noeller Posted April 30 Author Report Share Posted April 30 I'm glad the draft is during prime time... Ya it's **** quality compared to other leagues, but it's still our league and our draft. I'm glad they're at least trying. I mean the Jets are ****** so whatever... May as well get excited about football. wbbfan, Goalie, bb1 and 3 others 3 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wbbfan Posted April 30 Report Share Posted April 30 My draft wish list for our top 4 picks are De Luke brubacher, dt Daniel okpoko, a top 9 ol, and wr Kevens clercius. We’ve got 3 picks in the top 20, brubacher would have to be our top pick unless his nfl tc invite really cools his stock off, then some one would have to fall and we’d need to get real lucky to scoop one of those guys probably clercius at 28. An nfl bound ol like Hergel would be the dream. The global draft similarly has a bunch of higher end nfl bound prospects. A good punter, one of the dl and another lber would be great. https://3downnation.com/2024/04/29/top-eight-specialists-in-the-2024-cfl-global-draft/ JCon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulllllllllll S............ I don't believe any professional person would nuke their career prospects by making false allegations. After making allegations such as this her career prospects certainly took a hit as she will likely be labelled to much of a hot button to hire. If this was a simple case of contract not renewed she probably has a quality job in no time. However, make the allegation and employers will be hard to find. Therefore, I doubt she is lying completely about it. WBBFanWest and Bigblue204 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuranBoldenRules Posted April 30 Report Share Posted April 30 I don't know why the hell the draft doesn't start at 7 eastern. The people who want to watch it will find it.

SpeedFlex27 Posted April 30 Report Share Posted April 30 (edited) The TSN coverage of the CFL Draft is embarrassing. Just the first two rounds then the rest on the TSN website. Sorry, I have better things to do. They treat their Number 1 Sports holding (CFL) like it's as important as watching poker.
