Re: NFL road rocky for Rourke after Patriots draft QB
The Giants gave Jones a $90 million contract. Drew Lock was a first round pick who has seen the NFL field. DeVito is terrible, but good for PR as he's a local boy. The last time Rourke was in that room, the geniuses in that franchise tried to convert him to receiver. It's inarguably as bad as the Fa...

Re: NFL road rocky for Rourke after Patriots draft QB
*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...

Re: 2024 CFL draft (Lion's picks)
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...

Re: 2024 CFL draft (Lion's picks)
Barring a generational talent, you prioritize building from the trenches out. Always.The question is do they go for that at 6 or hope one of the better ones is still available at 12?

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

Re: Lions' receivers
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...

Re: Rourke now a NE Patriot
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.

Re: Lions' receivers
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.

Re: Thoughts on getting Stanback?
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 ...

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
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 ...

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
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...
