How does Elgersma get on the roster with all of Collaros, Streveler, Wilson, Dolegala and Patterson around competing for 3 spots.  

Dole and Patterson get cut. Pretty simple. The cdn QB is stashed for a year.

Imo he sits pr. Dole and pat cut. 

Next pick we really need a good fit pick. Db/dl/wr

Probably sit on the practice roster if he's not in the NFL.

The last 3 and arguably Streveler at this point are all expendable.  Like they are fighting to stay in pro football.

[wbbfan]

Is this the first time ever we’ve drafted a qb? 

Man I like that Shand pick

Hamilton picks been suspect man. 

Yeah Bagnah over Newell is a horrendous pick.

[Bigblue204]

Don't hate it, it was with the extra pick l...so taking a flyer isn't the worst. But you gotta think we look at legit depth from here on out. Wr/OL are a must now imo

It’s the only pick tsn ripped a bit. 

[Noeller]

Is Elgersma actually going to play QB at the pro level or is this just yet another NI QB who gets converted to receiver....

Shay is a good pick. 

Both those lbs are good picks..I actually see Smith projecting better in long run

Maybe converted to LBer?

No he’s a qb. His arm talent is legit. 

[BBlink]

Definitely would not have expected LB, LB, QB with ours picks. But personally I like the commitment to ST, getting a couple LBs that could end up starting one day. Elgersma I have no idea.

[FrostyWinnipeg]

I like how the GM labeled youth as #1 on their agenda. Bout time they stopped drafting old focks

 

[wbbfan]

What’s the point of doing the draft soo damn slow then cutting out for a game in progress

I mean Bennett was an old ass rookie

We don’t have the next guy after Zach. The Canadian kid could be it.

He has no better chance than any of the guys we do have. Worse than probably all of them.

He's a QB.  He's a good one, he's getting legit NFL look.  I think more potential than K Rourke, Rourke higher floor.  The issue is, is he a CFL starter in the next 2-3 years?  Or do you just end up developing him to go sign and play for the Argos if he does develop?

And, there's so many American QB's when playing a Canadian one doesn't necessarily help the ratio that much.

They are seriously putting the draft behind TSN+ and the CFL.ca tracker is frozen on Edmonton's 2nd round pick?

[Blue28]

Maybe he will be ok - was just expecting an O-Line prospect

The pros likely disagree with you hence why they took him in the 2nd round really.

Yeah kinda bullshit you need another TSN subscription on top of your TV TSN subscription to watch it.  Growing the game and making it more accessible and whatnot...

[JuranBoldenRules]

CFL.ca 504 timeout LMFAO.
