Yeah....I've already accepted it willbe less than optimal again and have a few "huh" parts to it....and until proven/shown otherwise it's not a stretch to think that

SAnd maybe they should put their personal feelings/beliefs/bias aside and utilize hwat every other team is doing "Within the confines of the rules"....there's a grand thjought eh?....It would if anything only make us better....how we are going about i hnadcuffs us....

Yep. 
 Ayers is my biggest worry. That kid has soo much potential, work ethic and desire. He makes plays few people in football can pull off. Be it on teams or D. We gotta keep polishing that kid. If he half fulfills what he’s capable of, he’s the best defensive player in the league. Idk how many times we’ve seen guys who are that level of disruptive, but it’s been really rare for us.

So if I have it correct

@Booch is going to pull a Tonya Harding on Kolo, so we can get Eli at C.

@wbbfan will do the same to K.Wilson, so that Ayers doesn't get cut.

 

So who is taking out Jake?

Let's just go 100% Canadian already, would just make roster management so much easier.

And Subway napkins would make their long awaited come back.

just for sh*ts and giggles if you fielded the whole roster with the best Canadian players out there, how competitive would the team be in the CFL?

You'd have a good O if you were able get all the best Canadians. D, not so much.

Who's your QB1?  Rourke or Ford?

Brady starts at RB, naturally.

Five Canuck receivers: T Philpot, Demski, Emelius, Gittens Jr, K. Smith from Hamilton.  

I think Philpot is the best of these.  Sad that he got banged up last year, he was on a 1600-yard pace the first half of the year -- with Cody Fajardo throwing him the ball, no less -- and it seemed like he could not be covered.

Does anyone even play national offensive tackles anymore?

Rourke or..... Ford??? At least Rourke can read a defense.

Mcinnis, Emilus, Demski, K.Smith and Gittens Jr. are the top 5 Canadian receivers last year.

The Philpot brothers, Shaffer-Baker and Mayala have at least 500 yrds receiving.

If I was picking the roster....and looking at current and future value/use it would be Ayer's at Wil and J,Jones in the middle...and based if we want a legit dline front both Wilson and T.Jones pushed off....is that gonna happen tho?....

And to have 2 import tackles and an import end to go along with WJ/Vaughters/Lawson and the Global Bailey .. we gonna have to either not dress an extra import receiver/returner or some one like Parker or Griffin doesnt make active roster....which would be bad bad bad on many levels....I could go with the non import extra receiver but not having that 6th import DB we use so much would not be wise.....and If we gonna have Logan on at some point that leads me to believe Person or some other guy can't get on

That doesn't even factor in the no ability to dress one of Wilson or T.Jones as an extra.....or J,Jones or Ayers if Osh leans to go with the vets who been here...which 99.9% I am sure he will....sadly to me it looks like we may have to forego talent like possibly Adams or Woods along with 2 of T.Jones...J.Jones...K.Wilson...or M.Ayers in lieu of lineup filling garbage like Thomas and Schmeckle and god help us not Kornelson....I just cant see the way we do it

The DA tag on Castillo just handcuffs us so much....as good as he is and as great a guy he is in and outside the lockeroom it just takes away a key DA spot from us

Make it Carnaval and his meat coma will take of things until at least September.

I suspect J.Jones would end up as a DI if Wilson and T.Jones are the starters but Ayers being cut or put on the PR is a concern. Wilson should not have been brought back and T.Jones while he helped us last year is a JAG we got off the scrapheap last year. Hopefully MOS realizes this.

Not sure why QB Darren Grainger appears on the bluebomber.com roster. I thought he retired. Did we brought him back?

I just don't seeba world where the lesser Jones starts over the other guy...

Subjective.

Ayers has a strong hype train right now.  Good special teamer last year.  Started a couple games.  Yeah looked good, not a ton of snaps.  Certainly not a mainstay by any means.

There's always 3-4 of these guys hanging on a team or in a camp.  Lots of them never become impact guys.

Both Jones guys are "scrap heap."  J Jones had one really good year out of 3 in the CFL.  Toronto didn't want to pay him more than rookie deal money.  That's a tale old as time in the CFL.  One team doesn't think a guy can perform to the money he's likely owed on a next contract, another team signs the guy and he's MODP of the whole league, or MOP if it's a QB.  Guy could be an all-star, or junk.

Wilson has been among the worst players on the field since he got injured in 2022.  He's done.

Griffin is getting on the roster IMO and he's not going to start in the secondary or at LB.  He's going to be a Swiss army knife type guy and anchor on special teams.  So that's who is more likely to squeeze Ayers off the roster with the current unsettled returner issue flipping the roster around a bit.  Another issue is how many American receivers they decide to dress.

Tony Jones played well last season, he easily matched Bighill's contribution and transitioned smoothly into the position, I would think MLB is his job till he loses it.  Ayers is probably this year's Brian Cole, filling in and bouncing around between positions, but he might not become a starter till next season, great to have a Swiss Army Knife.

Jones was ok last season but let’s not pretend. He was better than washed up bighill but he really wasn’t that great. Dude missed plenty the tackles. If your American middle linebacker isn’t a bighill type impact guy and T Jones is not some all star middle linebacker then you should be looking forthe guy who can be. Maybe that’s Jon jones but likely it’s the younger Ayers. Swiss Army knife? That’s griffin and the Canadian we drafted.
