July 23, 201312 yr Would sure look good in Blue and Gold. He could take over for Sears and when Sears returns they can move him back to CB.
July 23, 201312 yr They also signed Jennings .. Kackert goes to the 1game IR .. might be a sign they expect him to be out awhile ..
July 23, 201312 yr ...and, fwiw, Madani speculating that Frito is going to be out awhile, too. They're not going to 9-game him, but could be down awhile...
July 23, 201312 yr Given our depleted LB corps right now, this is one situation where I would be okay with signing another team's castoff.
July 23, 201312 yr Author I have always like his hard hitting play. He was also captain on the Argo D. I would want bring him in even if the Bombers were healthy. The guy brings a lot of energy and can hit HARD...ask Pierce and Simpson.
July 23, 201312 yr Author Nobody wanna question why Toronto would cut their Defensive Captain.......? Nope....just hoping they are doin' us a favour. Hopefully the Ticats or Als don't beat us to the punch.
July 23, 201312 yr Weird and surprising move. Milanovich press conference today to talk about that move and other Argo news.
July 23, 201312 yr Nobody wanna question why Toronto would cut their Defensive Captain.......? Likely he is a bit of a mental anomaly in the locker room. Is he an FA next year?
July 23, 201312 yr Likely he is a bit of a mental anomaly in the locker room. Is he an FA next year? Could be the case .. but if he's a disruption in the locker room .. how is he a team captain?
July 23, 201312 yr Marginal player. Can't cover good enough to play SAM so he plays WIL, not really suited to that position either, he was a fit for Jones because he sends him on a blitz almost every play. We don't really blitz our LB's, so I don't see him being a good fit here. I think he got beat out by Shane Horton, who was all over the place last Friday.
July 23, 201312 yr Could be the case .. but if he's a disruption in the locker room .. how is he a team captain? On a defense with a lot of first or second year players, there probably weren't many options.
July 23, 201312 yr Nobody wanna question why Toronto would cut their Defensive Captain.......? i think the reason rhymes with "Mass Shove Her Age" i don't know though. coach Scott has been very explicit in the past when cutting someone about providing an explanation... we'll see. so... i guess Shane Horton gets the spot...
July 23, 201312 yr i think the reason rhymes with "Mass Shove Her Age" Apparently i can't Ryhme very well.
July 23, 201312 yr Author Yet we keep a CB who can't cover. At least issac is a beast against the run and blitzing.
July 23, 201312 yr Yet we keep a CB who can't cover. At least issac is a beast against the run and blitzing. i'll give you blitzing... and hit hits a ton when he's in the clear... but i think he has a tendency to be light at the POA and part of the reason RBs had been victimizing us is a tendency to arm-tackle. his stand-in last game (after Jones moved him outside into coverage) shed a block off of a tackle 100 pounds more than him and drilled Buck in the guts... i think that Jones saw that play and made up his mind. i would be surprised not at all if Orlondo hasn't already contacted BI.
July 23, 201312 yr Coach Scott estimates 4-6 weeks for Kackert, but that could be adjusted on either side. He added that Kackert was "much worse" that Ray.
July 23, 201312 yr Yet we keep a CB who can't cover. At least issac is a beast against the run and blitzing. No he can cover, just not when the ball is thrown his way.
July 23, 201312 yr Nobody wanna question why Toronto would cut their Defensive Captain.......? classless.
July 23, 201312 yr In fairness, who knows why?I just know that this is par for the course for Jones who went thru players every year when he was with the Stamps. His defensive personnel was always changing.
July 23, 201312 yr I have no doubt we'll be seeing Isaac in a Ti-Cat uniform as soon as tomorrow. That's why they cut Knowlton.
Would sure look good in Blue and Gold. He could take over for Sears and when Sears returns they can move him back to CB.
