How happy are you with Walters' Draft work?
Mike replied to BigBlue's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Just heard Walters explaining the Morgan pick. They liked him because they viewed him as the only guy in the draft who can compete at both safety and field corner. -
DL/FB Ettore Lattanzio (5th round, 38th overall)
Mike replied to BigBlue's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
He must be thrilled we're putting him at FB. -

Anyone can use pictures! -
Impossible to say. I'm not happy about the Morgan pick either because that's not who I wanted to see, but we can't say "so and so would've been available" - it's pretty obvious that draft boards don't play out anywhere near what the media and fans expect. So while I'm not thrilled with the pick, it can't be called a waste at this point.

WE ALL LOVE TRADES BUT there is no way we trade our #2 which is really the number #1 with Ottawa's specialty pick of Mateas. The chance of that happening is the square root of zero. If you want to dream think about our 2nd or 3rd picks. Great way to encourage the discussion you were looking for. Yelling at people. Lol off to the chat I go!

And I hope we take an OL with the number 2 pick, otherwise I have to eat Mike's shorts

What would really be interesting is if the Bombers had their pick of Demski or Durant at 11. If Shaq goes in the first round, they just might.

I'm starting to think Murray-Lawrence falls no further than 7. If the Riders are among the favorites, he must be a guy they're considering at 6 because he's not lasting until their next pick that's for sure. If Shaq jumps into the first round, I don't see where Demski lands other than in our lap at 11 unless someone trades up to 10 ahead of us.

We're getting one of Waud, Durant, Demski, Bodanis, Ackie or Murray-Lawrence if we stay at 11 so that should be enough reason to hold there unless the price is too reasonable to move up.

My guess is that if the Bombers won't be willing to move 15, they won't succeed. They won't get away with #11 + 2016 picks.

Order is based on overall record, other than Grey Cup finalist and winner I believe.

He's not on the roster so I'm guessing he's gonzo. He never was on the roster.

I don't know how early everyone else was going to come by, but I'll be in there by about 6 PM. Don't forget - we max out at 250 now, not 50 like on free agency day!
-
If there's a situation where we don't get Demski, that's got to be close to my favorite one.

#2 + rights to Bilukidi or Mulumba for BC #5 and Westerman. Hard not to think we'd be stretching our financial limits at least a little bit with a move like that but it would be funny to see JAB Westerman and JAM Westerman on the back of the jerseys.

That's not what Walters said. He said there is one guy they have as the consensus number one player on THEIR board. There's nothing to suggest that means Ottawa has the same guy in mind.

I think Demski is worthy of going in the ten spot but if Ottawa keeps that selection, I see no sense in them using it on him. IMO, they'd be much better served using it on Shaq Lawrence or depth for behind Pruneau. It's questionable that they're even going to start ONE Canadian receiver (they could go 4 OL, Pruneau, Capiciotti and Shologan) and they already have Sinopoli, Carter and MacDonell.

He's ready to be a CFL contributor now but I don't see him as a day 1 starter at all. We don't need him to be. I see him being very much like Coombs - he'd get into certain sets just to get his feet wet. That being said, the OL we would select at number 2 would not be anywhere close to the project Goossen is. Worth pointing out - any of the three targets (Chungh, Mateas or Groulx) are ALL older than Goossen.

jim bender ✔ @bendersun If #bombers draft Demski, groom him for shot at #nfl, he would show his gratitude on the field. Draft O-lineman and lose their youngsters. 31m jim bender ✔ @bendersun The #bombers should draft Demski 1st, then get an O-lineman with 2nd pick. Seems like most of O-linemen are going to test #nfl waters 1st. 33m jim bender ✔ @bendersun Actually, #bombers biggest concern right now should be at LB, but there are no Muamba's in the draft #bringhimback 34m jim bender ✔ @bendersun The #bombers should actually draft Demski, who would become their answer to Cornish or Poplawski. Returns kicks well, too #nobrainer 36m jim bender ✔ @bendersun If #bombers draft an O-lineman 1st, it means they have no faith in Goossen, whom they drafted 1st last year or Neufeld, acquired in trade. Jim Bender with officially the worst analysis I have ever seen.

I think Chungh is probably regarded as the one with the highest ceiling.

I wouldn't trust that guy with my dinner reservation.

Or they just have depth. Barrett is a project, Jackson is pretty much toast, Foster sucks and Chambers/Watson are injury concerns.
-
The irony in all of this? The pick that Edmonton used to take Hus in 2013 was originally Saskatchewan's. And they dealt it in another awful trade (4th rounder + Matt O'Donnell for Greg Carr + 5th rounder)

This honestly has the makings of being the worst trade I've seen in a long, long time.
