Given our defensive schemes last year this sounds like he would fit in quite well. A guy that will steadily collapse the pocket. And like you said, if we can get a Cersena to play at the DT position, that pocket will collapse quickly.

It does seem weird to me. The only thing I can think of is that his injury isn't progressing and that Clercius has taken his spot. Dollars-wise it seems like a fine deal.

Salary wise it's going to be a bigger spend but I think Mitchell is a bit more dynamic. Underrated kick returner IMO. Really like this.

From a certain point in the season and onward he was very solid from my vantage point. I think without him we'd be filling a gigantic hole.

Where's good news though

I often think about how great of a player he was and was crucial in our 2019 run.

I don't see a problem with this. If they're good they're good. And some continue to get better.

Would love to make a couple impact signings in the trenches (both sides) and maybe Jalen Philpot who I think is set to emerge.

Collaros has been pretty similar in all of the years he's been here IMO. The biggest problem is that every year we've given more money to our top guys, including himself, and not getting the return on the investment. Collaros is a good QB but he needs a great team around him if we're going to win it all (just like any QB). We've lost the last 3 Grey Cups to MBT/green Kelly, Fajardo, and Nick Arbuckle. Goes to show you, you don't need elite QB play to win a championship.

Zach has proven that he can put up a lot of numbers when the defenses aren't up to the task. Things tighten up in Grey Cup and he has thus far not been able to execute. He has always been the best when we can run a balanced attack. We can win Grey Cups with him but we need a much better supporting cast. And that could include a coaching change.

I'd normally say bring in competition but if we sign Castillo back you know he will be the guy given the track record of our head coach.

I think it's a combo of Zach and the Receivers. Surprisingly the offensive line did their job and Brady was Brady but Toronto schemed well for him. His one big play was all Brady. Demski was absolute dogshit. That leaves us with Lawler and Pokey as the only two that had any impact. But like was said in the other thread... Some plays were there and Zach under throwing receivers again. Defense had a lot to be desired... They aren't schemed to win games. Just not lose them. Overall, embarassing display. Right now, not looking forward to next year. Even if they get to the Cup I have zero faith.

Playcalling was fine when you consider how many players were stacked in the box on any given play. I've seen enough underthrown passes being intercepted in Grey Cups and overall bad QB play to put this on Zach. He's about cemented his legacy of winning 2 Grey cups despite his play.

They can't complete a full word. Pretty sure they are baked.

I'm bad with numbers but I think they'll use about 80
