Atomic Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Depends if we can land a stud like Heenan or Holmes in free agency. That would of course reduce our need to draft an OL with the second pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbrg Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Depends if we can land a stud like Heenan or Holmes in free agency. That would of course reduce our need to draft an OL with the second pick. Even then, Waud/Durant might be worth making a deal. It's all hypothetical anyways, unless these guys project extremely highly there's no need to deviate from whatever the current plan is, and whatever the current evaluations are for these players, they will not likely change at all until Ecamp (outside of Waud's upcoming game). And if there's 2 guys we feel we absolutely must have, we still have to find a dance partner for a trade and hope the second guy is still on the board for us to take. Can't plan for any of this in January, but we can be open to the idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbrg Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Durant looks like a pretty crazy talent... any projections for him to get drafted in the NFL? Based just on percentages, it seems very unlikely. About 30 WR taken per draft. Simon Fraser is very low profile by NCAA standards. On average about 1 or 2 low-profile school receivers get taken per year. The chances it's him are not favourable. But his agent could get him a free agent tryout. Odds of that happening have to be a lot higher than him getting drafted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 I think by the time Watson gets injured, Durant will be ready to be a starter. Not sure who I want the Bombers to pick now... There's a lot of good ones this draft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Durant it is? Or Groux 2nd overall and maybe Demski will fall to 11 wpgallday1960 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goalie Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Really think we go oline at 2 this year now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikey d Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 Saw a tweet that suggests Waud may be drafted in the NFL draft saw it too, Believe it said as high as the 5th round even. Waud for sure has NFL potential as a 5-tech DE. As a CFL prospect, I actually think he may have a better future as an offensive tackle. He has the height and arm length for it.

James Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 Waud's gonna be a pretty good DT in this league... no need to switch him to the other side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 It might be wise to stay away from Varga for the first 3 rounds http://www.tsn.ca/tsn-ca-cfl-draft-profile-tyler-varga-1.187433 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 I certainly wouldnt be opposed to taking Ackie in the second round... This guy is going to be a legit Starting CFL defender one year http://www.tsn.ca/tsn-ca-cfl-draft-profile-chris-ackie-1.184229 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracker Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 Ackie looks very interesting, At 6'1" and 210 he is still fast enough to play DB with room to put on a few more pounds. His tackling looks to need a bit of work, but he is not afraid to hit. He ought to make a helluva free safety or even an outside linebacker with some seasoning.

James Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 I think he projects to be a very good starter at WLB in a year or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 Hypothetical, But I can see BC offering us their first and second rounders for #2 overall to get a guy like Varga or Durant if there's no NFL interest... anyone here bite on that deal?

Rids Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 Make sure you're watching today's Senior Bowl. Tyler Varga is competing against some of the best NCAA talent. Currently at 2 carries for 11 yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebusrankin Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 Looking at the rankings and just throwing stuff at the wall, is it possible we take Durant at #2 and OT Ruby at #11? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be awesome, but risk is if you take Durant at 2 there's no guarantee the OL Walters wants is there at 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jpan85 Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 Walters said this week that he thinks there is going to be a run on Oline guys in first round. Said mostly due to fact that the last few drafts have been really weak Oline drafts teams will be looking to stock up. As a result there will be a few really talent skill position guys that will fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracker Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 With both Heenan and Holmes off the table to all practical intents, and our desperate need for O-linemen, I can't see Walters looking past a O-line potential starter in the first round.
