If Harris gets hurt, you just adjust elsewhere in your lineup. In my opinion, it's not as big of an issue as some folks have made it. We're going to start 1 RB, 1 WR, 2 OL, 2 DL and 1 DB - for the most part, I'd say between 50% - 66% of the defensive snaps have another Canadian in the mix as well anyways, so we'd really just have to push that number up to 100% and basically rotate Corney, Miles, Waggoner and Jones (plus we're likely going to add another body that can take reps in the draft) through depending on the situation. No, I would not take Augustine at 15.

Did you?

Can't see us adding a guy in the draft, to be honest. We didn't want to invest in that spot with Lochard. Not sure what would change now, unless there is just some undeniable great value in the middle/late rounds.

We already have one. Normand.

If Roberson is on the roster, he'd take Flanders spot. The way I see it right now, we have three designated import spots after Medlock to use up. One of them is likely to come on the defensive line, whether it be Jeffcoat, Irvin or maybe even Shayon Green or a different new prospect. You would expect that with the amount of prospects we have in the secondary (Loffler, Jones, Morgan) and linebacking core (Miles, Briggs, Waggoner) that we can get away with one teams-ace Tony Burnett kind of designated import between those two position groups. You're left with one - it's going to go to the kick returner, with their preference likely leaning towards a guy like Kieran Duncan over a guy like Kendall Roberson, since Duncan provides backup at a spot where we're likely thinner with Canadians (receiver vs. running back)

Where do you get 4 tailbacks from?

I think Roberson is going to be great competition for Flanders. I like the look of George Stone too, but I suppose we don't really have a need unless they plan to put him in the middle. He strikes me as a guy who could be like a Tony Burnett, though.

Glen Johnson would be a horrible decision.

With the roster being built on SD, it really makes so much sense to have sent Balor over there too. Missed the boat on that one, in my opinion. Can't wait for Nakamura/Styles, though.

A Carr stuck behind a Carr? Traffic jam.

I thought Orridge did enough to grow the game, but I think looking back, he probably needed to be more of a public face. He wasn't as front and center as Cohon.

To be fair, look at his hair.

Add this name to your CFL Draft board: Randy Colling 26 years old. Been in the Arena Football League for a few years after playing NCAA D2 (former defensive lineman of the year finalist there) and while I have no idea how he's going to rate on the overall draft board, he's exactly what WE need (a big defensive tackle) ... not sure what his current size is, but he was 320 in college. Big time player in Arena Football too, he was on the All-Arena team so he's not exactly unestablished. Could be fairly pro ready. If I had to guess, I'd say he potentially just entered the first round picture.

For all of those wondering if McLeod Bethel-Thompson is coming back, he's apparently a part of the new US spring league that has popped up (as are Adrian Hubbard, Brandon Browner, Greg Hardy and Ahmad Bradshaw) so I'm doubting he'll make his way back up here. Good, in my opinion.

His entire strategy for Winnipeg's mock draft seems to be entirely based off the idea that he doesn't view Jake Thomas as a full time starter.

That's totally fine, but for the most part, these guys are proven as commodities before they ever step foot in NXT. Case in point, every guy you named - Owens, Joe, Rollins and Balor - were world famous before they hit a NXT ring.

Too tough to do mocks these days. First Round Potential: WR Vandervoort, WR Behar, OL Bladek, OL Woods, OL Gray, OL Senior, OL Spooner, DL Ankou, DL Luke, DL Ekakitie, DB Wright, LB Mulumba Second Round Potential: OL Schram, OL Roy, DL Boateng, DL Vaughn, DL Okafor, DL McGough, LB Herdman, DB Woodson Roughly.

The key is to get better wherever we can get the most better.

Guess I better make some babies.

I remember all of that - and the old school Wickman jersey that he swapped out for a straw hat and overalls at the Banjo Bowl. I wish they had done a better job of recreating a section S style experience at IGF.

Whatever happened to the eat the corn guy?

We will always have the REAL Canadian Air Force, Rory Dough Alert and Jay Detain. But really, reading that the "Balm hers move twitch main forage hearse down" helped no one.

I agree with very little of that mock, since according to a lot of reports, Bladek had a very good combine. This is the same thing that happened last year, though. His mocks are usually full of reaches.

You won't see anybody draft Augustine that high.

What an epic waste that would be.
