That's actually crazy. I'm not sure I've ever been part of any team in any sport that didn't have a go to play.

Yeah. Agreed. Soccer. Hockey. All of them. There were go to plays even as youth.

I feel unless you going after Canadian receivers like an Emilius, you should trust your scouting to find 1 American guy or 2. There’s 50000 guys down south. Find 2. Spend the cash elsewhere. 
 

id be looking hard at upgrading the oline DL and Canadian talent through free agency. Likely in that order and since I’ve probably posted this in the wrong thread, I’d take several of the rider free agents here. Allen Emilius and yoshi honestly. If big Stan retires. I think I’d think really hard about trying to flip the ratio so I can start 3 American oline. 
 

Yosh/Broxton, Wallace ??? Vanterpool, Randolph. 
 

Demski. Clercius. Emilius 

Brady 

2 oline 

kramdi at LB with smith there. I’d look at Shay in the middle also with Novak there. Prob be going OL LB with my first few picks. 
 

find a way to run all American DL also and with 8 Canadian starters, even 7, there’s no need for Canadian defensive line

It wouldn't be long before he said to himself. "Urine trouble".

And here we are still wondering if Osh will make a much needed change. Doing it on his own sweet time just like last year.

It's a passive-aggrressive way of responding to forced change to show who's really in change/

So for all the talk of Eli replacing Kolo, both are free agents I believe.

Our Man Tait had a good piece about all the pending FAs... Talked about Eli possibly replacing Koala and Vibert (another natural C) possibly replacing Neufeld...

He waited until February last time. Its only been 2 weeks, calm down. Knowing O'Shea he's not gonna rush it, because the fans want it.

And, as has been mentioned a million times every year, just because we don't know about something doesn't mean it didn't happen. Professionalism means keeping things behind closed doors. No airing of negativity. Tons of decisions could have already been made and just not made public. And I'm more than fine with that.

Professionalim??? JFC, now I've heard everything. With the track record of the Canadian Mafia since 2023, silence means nothing is getting done. Those 2 live in their own little bubble where time runs on a different reality. The new season starts 1- 2 weeks earlier in May. They have to tighten things up significantly to get things done. Otherwise, nothing has changed. .

How'd taking his time work out for us? You happy with the decision he finally made?
