Official Expansion Draft Day Thread

Today marks a historical day.  Eight teams will look a little different after today, and the last one will start forming some shape.  Should be interesting.

    TSN's coverage is not official as they are not capitalizing REDBLACKS.

  • disappointed to lose miles, he showed some real potential last year but on the other hand receivers are pretty straightforward to find. 

  • If you trust a guy, and you trust that he'll go along with a side-deal that says "...Listen, we want you, but we can't protect everyone. You're a FA, so we're going to leave you unprotected and hopefu

My guess is that we lose Poblah and Swiston in the 2nd and 3rd rounds. 

 

I think Ottawa will take primarily o-line from most teams.

I think I would have taken a flyer on some free agents... Mitchell just seems like any import receiver you can pick up for nothing - same goes for miles actually, plus lee is a 28 year old backup import OT who didn't exactly dominate in his one appearance and quite possibly would have been cut or back on PR... Plus moton hopkins? Weird.

I guess Kohlert and Swiston.

 

Not buying the whole "not selecting Free-Agents" thing.

 

Volny to me isn't a must have.  OL, and REC is where they need to stock up if there is anything there.

I got a feeling we will lose Mike Renaud.

I would hope(and think) Poblah and Swiston would both be protected come the 3rd round.

People expectations of the third guy we lose are pretty lofty. We will loose a very replaceable player in the 3rd round. I don't think Ottawa takes a kicker unless its one of the top 2 or 3 in the league its not worth it to have more Canadians protected. Sean Whyte is a free agent Sandro will be available no need to waste a pick on a position where you can pick someone up serviceable while you develop a guy.

Would that give Brett Cameron another shot?  I know we also placed a NI K/P on the neg list recently.

 I would be happy to see Cameron back... but also McKnight, and Pavlopolous

The kid from Western in my opinion will have a good shot at making the team.

Pretty much the first round (with the exception of QB's were picked based on potential.  Much easier at this point then to scout. The second round will be key (obviously).

lol @ being upset over losing an import WR. Miles coulda been solid, but finding a replacement should be just about the easiest thing for our brain trust to do. Not concerned...

Yeah I am thinking Poblah is as good as gone.

Anyone else have this feeling Ottawa trades us DeMarco? And then we try and sign Collaros come Feb 15?

 

DeMarco wouldn't be competing for a starters spot, and I don't think the value is there to trade for him when we have Max Hall.

next round is at 12:35 ET

Oh right. Ok in 1 minute then! Woo hoo!

Alex Krausnick ... J'Michael Deane ... Matt Albright

We lose FB James Green

Green who has been cut what like 3 times by us.

Joe Eppelle?  Really?

Still waiting & it's 11:40 am CST. Like WTF?
