Would you use the second overall pick on the only NCAA trained player in the draft with a year of pro experience and high versatility to play several different defensive positions?
-
True. Consider if Mace hadnt had health issues and we waited for him, we would have had a top d-lineman for a few years rather than nothing at all like we ended up with. It's an interesting problem that you really can't compare with any other league. Have to judge whether a guy will ever get cut by the NFL, whether he is a fit for the CFL, and whether he would consider continuing his playing career up here. Very difficult for a GM to make that decision and judge an "adequate" return.

How many times can we ask for an upright Willy?

I seriously question the value of a late first round pick. When you are trading a player as a rental, it generally goes to a playoff team so the first round pick is in the 16-30 range. Having more picks is always a good thing but I think people overstate the effect on a team that a pick like that will have. I would be more aggressively pursuing prospects who are already a year or two into their pro careers so it is less of a crap shoot. First round pick sounds great but not all first round picks are equal.

Goalie for your New years resolution.... Try to keep posts under 10000 words!

The difference is that Durant basically hasn't played in 2 years now. Ray and Willy at least have taken significant reps and Ray showed he can still play and is healthy. Ray has gotta be way higher than Durant at this point.

I missed the part where you commented on his job as president. The question was not how much you admire the man, but how good of a job he is doing as president. Of course we don't know the day to day operations so the only way to judge is on what the public has seen since he took over.

Arctic Ice Hockey guys are a joke. Totally moronic.

Banned? How petty.

Good signing, glad to hear it. Better QB depth than we've had since KJ/Glenn.

So the Rumble is going to be for the WWE title. Virtually assures Roman makes it to the final two or wins outright. So lame. I hate this. Zero intrigue or mystery. God what a huge mistake. -
If you say so. I'm not going to judge him based on results when he wasn't given much to work with in regards to receivers, quarterbacks, and especially offensive coordinators. From all accounts from players and fellow coaches, he is a good coach, and he is also a guy with 4 years of receiver coaching under his belt. Good enough to be on Chris Jones' staff obviously, but what does he know? I'm sure we'll be better off with whatever rookie coach Lapo digs up...
-
Rationalize it however you like, it just means there is still some level of NFL interest in him and he won't be in a rush to come to the CFL when he gets cut.
-
Likely means we don't see Bilukidi for another year.
-
Both of which would be concerning to me as well. Howell is a good coach. I guess we will just have to wait and see who replaces him but its unlikely to be an experienced CFL coach.

The traditional heel and face roles just don't exist anymore. Fans will cheer whoever they want, regardless of good guy or bad guy. Look at Kevin Owens. He's a heel but people love him. Is that good or bad? I'm not sure. Times have changed. Ask 10 fans what WWE "should" be doing and you will get 10 different answers. Ask a month later and you get 10 different answers again. It's so easy to say Creative sucks when you don't actually have to be accountable to your own suggestions. Meaning WWE fans in general, not you TUP. -
Concerning as Howell has worked for Lapo before, obviously not interested in doing so again.

Scheifele is on pace for 20 min tonight. And it's his first game back.

Personally I haven't read a Bombers article since the FP paywall went up and I don't miss it at all. I watch the O'Shea pressers and follow news on twitter. It's shocking how little there is to gain from reading traditional sports articles these days.
