Yeah having a guy go both ways serves no purpose. Doesnt help a team at all and if Duron gets hurt in a game..then a db does too..then what? Also he isn't any better than any average db..but the hype they give him is sickening. They say he stepped up and got physical is funny if u actually watched it. 3 plays previous he missed trying to make tackle same way and the one time he actually made contact the ball carrier actually trucked him and ear holed him good..and taken down in the wash of we everyone else there.. not due to Duron Also not sure why they didn't highlight on the Edmonton where they ran at him and he got boxed out with ease and rb ran in easily..why not showcase that? Lots of guys in league could go both ways but dont..why..because smart teams dont waste a talent by doing that

Cutting Leggett! Lolololololol

The middle of the defense should be an absolute strength. Whatever they do at DT should be strong, MLB is among the best in the league, safety is a good one. It's exciting stuff.

We were right in the middle last year..4 teams gave up less...4 teams gave up more I thinks we have improved enough to move up at least 2 spots, and we have improved more than Ottawa who was ahead of us, and I think SASK too...Cgy has regressed and T.O prob is about the same...so yup...I think we will be in the top 2..top 3 at worst The addition of Bighill and our ability to play our Safety as they should be played can't be overstated enough...and I think we grabbed the best defensive free agent available in Fenner (as Bighill wasn't available) so technically we grabbed the 2 best available.

It’s these side stories that I like hearing about..

Bighill / Loffler yikes.

Both Perreault and Myers will have teams lined up if the Jets make them available.

And that team was 1 defended pass away from going to the Grep Cup. Unreal. How they went 10-8 is a miracle. They played wayyyyy above their heads + talent level. Here's hoping they come crashing back to earth this year. Starting guys like Hurl is a step in the right direction!

THIS is the kind of effort the receivers need to put in: https://img-9gag-fun.9cache.com/photo/a1oVP2v_460svvp9.webm

Couple of notes from today's practice, was able to attend: Defense was all over the offense today. Nichols had two interceptions and should have had a third. Streveler looked pretty poor. He had an interception where the DB undercut the RB's out route. Next play he scrambled left, tried to hit a receiver but put it in the turf. Seemed slow on his progressions but obviously hard to tell. The defense sacked him on a blitz and he had another ball batted down. Bighill blew up Harris on one run play that scared the heck out of me. Kyrie Wilson was still "starting" over JSK, who dressed today. Wilson had a really nice pick, reading Nichols' eyes on the 8-on-8 drill. Dropped back into coverage and just snagged it. They put the subs in for the next play and JSK picked off Nichols immediately too. Those were Nichols' two interceptions, as mentioned above. Gaitor almost had a third later on in the red zone. I know almost nothing about punting but Menard-Briere had some nice punts today. Medlock still had more hang time.

Couldn't fight through traffic, and had people run through his tackles, as well. Some folks may still have no idea, what a gigantic upgrade Bighill is....

yeah pretty sure Opo can manage that as well...I too think this defense is going to give teams fits with the disguised looks and versatility..the fact too that bIghill can drop off and play safety is gonna be a huge plus when we bring 8 guys up in the box to show blitz...and the centre/guard have to try and decide who is coming up the gut..will be glorious to watch Dan Clarke flailing away like a idiot as Collaros gets crushed haha

not to mention Jeffcoat is a guy you can drop off into coverage in a blitz disguise and he won't hurt you one bit...I believe he got a pick last year doing that...no?

Speaking of Westerman, the Als starting defensive ends will be a combined 69 years old this season. That's crazy...

Most difficult position for defense in the CFL is the dime back position (sam) that Leggett and Fenner play. And depending in the league who you asked...some would say Fenner is the best...some would say Leggett is the best...now they are both on the same team. As well in case you were not aware..a guy who can excel at that position..can do equally as well, if not better at boundary half back becs=aue they can focus more on just coverage as opposed to when to break off a receiver and read the play to move up to support the run....just sayin

Before they signed Collaros there were posters on RF saying Williams was good enough to be their starter. Oops.

RCAF colours. When does this troll leave?

Her role in GoT is pretty one note so she nails it decently. She was not a great choice for Sarah Connors in Terminator though.

most sings the praises of every one he talks about, i dont think he has ever had a critical word about any player to the media.

Hurl looks like he’s in mid season form already!!

Preseason matters......you have to get the new horseflesh in there, and find out who really gets it done, when the footballs are flying and the pads a-popping. You have to be looking to upgrade positions, every year regardless of record. Take myself....after all this time, I don't just sit on my laurels. Gin shelf is always being restocked.

It looks like Jhurellvis has been returned to sender.

http://3downnation.com/2018/05/28/duron-carter-tsns-derek-taylor-fired-wack-ass-stats/ What a ******....and if I was Roosevelt....I would be none too pleased with that reaction...what a team guy eh?...so sick of his schtick

Was going to bring that up too! Absolutely no doubt we are going to have snaps where we have Jeffcoat in the intermediate, Bighill/Loffler/Leggett/Fenner rushing the passer and a whole mess of disguised roles in the secondary. I love it.

Little bit surprised a guy who loves players with versatility and is always coming up with ideas to flex guys from one spot to another wouldn't be a big fan of a guy like Fenner but let's be real here, he's going to be a very solid player for us. I'm not really too concerned with where we have guys slotted in at the moment ... between JSK, Bighill, Fenner, Loffler and Leggett that's a whole world of versatility where you could have guys all over the place.

Foster, Purifoy ok.... Mrabure???

Of course. Cavillo is venerable. Ray is the quintessential QB in the CFL for the past two decades. But what you’ll really be missing this year is.. https://goo.gl/images/XjZ5dp

The WCF is too recent for me. i don't care about Washington but no way in hell do I want Vegas winning. The spite in me is very strong right now.

Perreault has three years left at $4.1 Million per. Myers has one year left at $5.5 Million. If the Jets dont plan to sign Myers (or he doesnt want to stay), he might be the obvious one to move out. He's attractive for other teams because his actual cash salary is less (so a lower cap team with space might like him). Jets could use that $5.5 in cap space to sign Trouba long term.

It was shocking to me that they wouldn't play Collaros last night. That's what you do with a long-time veteran... not your shiny new acquisition who has struggled for a year or more. Even if it's just one or two series... get him in there. He needs reps.

Diving headfirst and turning into ball carriers is a good way to get a concussion, shoulder or back injury too. If they value him as a receiver it makes no sense to have him playing on the boundary where he's going to have to make a lot of open field tackles which he clearly has no technique to do.

but Bellefeuille is gone.... With the players they have now on defence, if it continues to be bad, I would think Hall will have to be let go.

I think someone was asking about this:

Just ask Korey Banks about that. The coach will make the moves he feels give the team he best chance to win.

I don’t think Lankford is one of those players that gets the loyal treatment. He’s a fringe player. Flanders might be a guy that gets it at the cost of someone who could be a great player like Myles White.

I think Labour Day or Banjo Bowl is a realistic target. Let’s be real, if he’s healthy they don’t sign Fenner AND Gaitor, plus re-signing Fogg. They are counting on half his salary or maybe more being off the cap.

I suspect they are easing him in but I think he plays this year.

Seriously?? If they don't bring in talent, people ***** that there's no competition and the scouts need to do more. So they bring in people and now we're complaining that the Bombers are bringing in too much talent? Unfreaking believable...

So, Black stays... Thanks for nuthin'. TSN.

This regime always plays to win. Not in a stupid way, but we won’t be losing 52-0 and feeling good about it.

That would be consistent with tie-in to the air force, which is something the Jets have always paid tribute to.

No I heard he's also playing MLB...

Chris Jones invented a time machine and now has 2015 Collaros?

Ooh Hurl got burned again. Where did I saw that before? 😂

Sask vaunted D starts preseason with a TD drive with 35 penalty yards.

Man i love seeing Hurl in the old MLB spot.....For another team!!

*If* the Jets were to say Myers and Perreault are up on the trading block.... they would easily have a 5 - 10 teams for Perreault and nearly everyone calling about Myers.
