Website basically crashed right now so not expecting responses but anyone feeling really underwhelmed by the DE pick? Especially at 4. Doesn't seem as bad as Hamilton's pick (even Ferguson couldn't polish that turd) but does feel like Anthony Bennett again...

nothing like bennett. Nuer can step in and contribute off the bench, and projects as a starter. his floor is higher than bennetts ceiling

we trade up? interesting

Who tf is Dante Daniels? Not sure they needed to trade up but what do I know?

2nd rounder next year to move up 3 spots and take a te? this is a spicy move!

boy that’s an odd one i don’t hate it but i can’t imagine he was gonna be off the board in 3 picks

big ass te who is less of a flex passer and more of an hback versatile super sub. poor testing numbers but plays with solid speed

traded up for Jon Oosterhuis 2.0

Man this just feels like a super weird draft we're having....

lol he’s more athletic then that. As a pass catcher he’s faster than corcoran. if he has reasonable hands he’s a very useful fit.

Wonder if it means we are really done with clercius hope not

having kev mci and dante off the bench for heavy sets would be massive

i suspect rohan going soo high spooked us. It feels standard for us. immediate use and upside but in predictable

Would it be the CFL draft if it wasn't weird?

It’s not that weird. I mean Ottawa didn’t need an oline. They took one. Edmonton took a LB. I mean what this tells me is people who declare themselves as experts on this cfl draft stuff? Blowing smoke out the ass man. Nobody has a clue. Dudes drafted by the nfl and signed to udfa deals are really throwing this one for a loop. Bombers want guys who will be here now.

we could be planning to convert dante to rt especially if he bulks up some

Interesting...our heavy sets are going to be heavy. 3 american OL and then having Daniels sitting on the outside...Brady could be running wild. And Collaros will have some great protection.

Yup. Really feel 3 us oline is what we are going to do.13 currently on the roster. We going 3 US oline.

The TE FB pick feels like not good to me. 10 catches for 105 in 2 years is not good. Feels like did this guy have military training?

If the plan was to trade up why didn't we go all the way with Ottawa and go for Vaccaro at no1,,,Walters seems to be sleep walking through this draft??

The DE pick? Seems solid to me. The panel liked it.

I just feel like posting this.

Based on the picks after us...you can basically throw the mocks out 🤣... Our pick isn't looking so weird

Because the price to move up to #1 would have been way higher than the price to move up in the second round......??

either price was too high or we didn’t prioritize ol, will see in the next few picks how we look at ol/wr

That's what I was thinking... The panel feels genuinely confused by many of the picks. The GMs are on a totally different page from the prognosticators...

Maybe because Vacarro or any of the oline aren’t as good as American oline? I mean Vacarro isn’t a tackle. He’s a center or guard. I mean the reality is we are prob going 3 American oline and prob gonna stay that way for a while and it’s the right move cuz in reality most Canadian oline prob aren’t as good as American ones and the American ones are cheaper you should be able to replace them every few years. The Canadians you pay almost overpay them. I can see a future where only 1 oline is Canadian in the future. Why play your Canadians on the oline when you can play them elsewhere. The DE TE LBs etc can also be Canadians. Shay smith Kramdi Lawson Demski Brady oline plus nationalized dude and there you go really. Nield. You don’t need oline. Why have lesser players protecting your basically your franchise QB.

I just said this in my Bomber chat. They look LOST. haha especially after that last Djete pick...Ferguson is looking down at a complete loss.

this is no surprise given the mock drafts we saw. cfl draft is impossible to predict, but even at that the mocks have been terrible

I like a bunch of these picks teams are getting good useful talent

Panel confused as hell since pick 10. lol. Honestly it was the last pick they seemed to have info on other than WTF is this ****.
