We took Corcoran receiver out of New Hampshire.  Low ceiling guy.  Field wide out type.

27” vert lol. Tested like ajou ajou last year, only he’s half a foot shorter.

Ol and Wr there we go

We picked a small, slow receiver.  But don't worry, he can't jump either.

He’s a slightly bigger ni kelvin mcnight… well that’s his upside any way

Listening to 5 sweaty men talk about length and girth.

Is REC Ethan Jordan drafted already?

Nope unless he's gone in the round that's gone by since they've been talking about Cumberbatch.

[Jets]

Phew we drafted a LBer in round 5.  Thought we weren't going to be able to grab any LBs

[wbbfan]

I’d love to see us take Pyle 

[M.O.A.B.]

Another LB - Lane Novak

It is pretty funny the panel talking their crappy picks. Piling on Lapo for drafting Jade Etiene haha 

Barker saying he got fired for trading for Drew Willy

Ottawa snagged Ethan Jordan.  Be interesting to compare him down the line to the Keelan White who they picked 3rd overall.

LMAO we took Michael Ball's son.

Best part of the draft coverage

lol where does that comparison come from? He’s 4-5 inches taller, 20 lbs heavier, and significantly less athletic.

[JuranBoldenRules]

Why don't they have these guys on a podcast and cover the draft instead?

I’m gonna be kinda surprised if guys like Pyle and von muehldorfer go un drafted. But I’d be pretty happy to scoop a guy like that as a udfa.

Isn’t he Michael Ball’s kid? He hates the bombers

Son of everyone’s favourite former Riders play by play guy Micheal Ball

[Noeller]

is there any potential to the OL we took?

Hence the slightly larger. He isn’t really less athletic, McKnight had Terrible measurables. 
 They are clones play style wise. Smooth, smart route runners who under stand how to read zone cover and manipulate man cover, not fast or long or quick or any thing special athletically. Good hands. 

[M.O.A.B.]

Interesting what Michael Ball will say about the Bombers for drafting his kid.

Next Kolankowski ? 

Oh we should have picked Stokman

Hes a solid pick yeah. He could be a 6th ol in the league this year. He’s not a road grader, but he’s strong with decent feet and the right head space. Backed up most of his career before finally becoming a starter last year. 
 He can also be a C or a G. Really good value at that spot in the depth. He’s more of a blood n guts type but the league always needs guys like him.

He’s better than that, solid though not likely spectacular.
