*sigh* If we really want to keep kicking this NFL can, you're down to really four practical choices. The Raiders, who are going to play mediocre QB roulette all year. The Rams whose starter is aging and whose backup has a hard time staying out of police cars. The Cardinals who have only Desmond Ridd...

Can't see too much interest this soon after the draft has been completed. If he runs out of options, he would be a free agent for CFL teams.

Hamilton, Montreal or Ottawa?

And George Una OL from Windsor it is. You’re welcome. For predicting OL or predicting Una? I'm not sure which one of us beat the other to the punch. I posted in this thread back on Feb 22nd that BC's biggest draft need was OL. As much as the argument for receiver enticed me to change my mind I stil...

The question is do they go for that at 6 or hope one of the better ones is still available at 12?

Barring a generational talent, you prioritize building from the trenches out. Always.

Nice to see the Riders not going over the cap for a change.

Yeah, Claypool has NFL level talent, but from where I sit it appears he does not have pro football maturity. I don't think his ego would allow him to play in the CFL. Claypool comes across to me as being similar to Duron Carter. Long on talent but lacking the sort of maturity needed to be a pro. Wh...

Brissett is being brought in as the bridge guy to whomever they're taking at 3. Rourke is done there.

You can waste your years sitting in press boxes, but it's probably time for him to read the room and come home to lead the Tiger Cats to their destiny.

The design of the offense is keyed around Cottoy and he is extremely valuable, regardless of the yardage numbers. This offense needs to replace Lucky in order to be effective. If you don't have a guy who can burn down the field running a nine route that defenses have to respect you're in trouble. Ac...

Hopefully Nathan Rourke doesn't return to the CFL anytime soon and end up having to play for Hamilton.

/FTFY

As someone who was underwhelmed by Mizzell but doesn't necessarily believe in spending a great deal of money on the RB position, this signing is the best of both worlds to me, with the inherent confidence the QB has in Stanback as a bonus. Though I do share the requisite skepticism that the offense ...

I don’t want to spend another seven pages on this, because my stance on this is pretty clear after 20 years here. You aren’t getting NFL playing time, you aren’t making NFL money unless you are extraordinarily (he isn’t ) and sitting around in a press box not playing does no favors for your career ...

Farhan Lalji says he’s confirmed that Mathieu Betts will sign a futures contract with the Detroit Lions. Ooof. Some guys just never learn. Everything to gain, nothing to lose. I understand odds are not tilted in his favour but if he doesn't make their PS he'll have 9 CFL teams tripping over themsel...

#6. While it's always very sad and tragic when somebody passes away, there are other ways to give tribute than to retire their number. Perhaps a small memorial inside the stadium can suffice as a number retirement banner should be reserved for his on-field performance and dedication to his team and...
