Dee Urban Hermit Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 Well it seems like the receivers and the Dlinemen really impressed everyone. I don't have a problem with this. If we used our 9 and 10 pick to grab either/or, I could live with that. Walters did a great job over F/A to bring in some very good national talent. It seems like we would have no problems fielding our ratio as it stands. Unless your willing to trade up with the Riders, you will never see Vaillantcourt here, he won't last past first pick.

I feel like I just read the opposite, that the OL dominated the DL in the one-on-ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Dee Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 I don't know about you guys, but I'm getting a little tired hearing about the massive contingent of Riders' support/scouting staff being flouted at every opportunity. This is the CFL combine, in one location, with everybody there at the same time. Eye-ya-eye. I mean, has it even been proven that 20 different opinions will work massively better than 10 different opinions? SPuDS and Bigblue204 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy who runs that twitter account is a Riders fan and a regular on their fan site. His seat is near the front on the Chris Jones bandwagon.

Jpan85 Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 If Gagnon fell to us that would be great. Would have some insurance if Chung leaves after this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jpan85 Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 Just heard Walters on H and L. Said for the first time they can take the best player available instead of having to draft based on position. Mostly like will be oline with one of the first two picks then best player on board. Also talked neg list. Lawless made a good point that with guys waiting out for NFL opportunities that some of the guys they put there on first 2 years may now have no options other than signing with Bombers than wait for another NFL shot. Walters agreed and said they are working hard to get some of those guys up here sent out a video package about team city and league to those that they really wanted to sign off neg list and working those agents hard. Also said the Mulumba will not sign here this year will wait till every NFL shot is exhausted. Low dollar and new league also affecting getting guys to come up here.

You never have to justify taking the best player available and I quite frankly disagree entirely with drafting on need as opposed to BPA. mbrg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stickem Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 I like the sound of Loffler...No quit in this kid and IF he can stay healthy....solid pic...Gagnon is a monster,another solid pic if we go that route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
