Neild had success in t.o before..hardly unknown Carney was a solid signing and wanted us to sign him...so maybe u toothless crew werre laughing...I dunno And your yrs of success under JOD says otherwise about talent finding Ajou got a look on ..how he looked...like KSB and lenious Ajou is far from great

didnt happen here tho....Neild was a starter no....if not sure played a lot...was Reavis not a starter too Vaughters....good, but not what he was...I think tho he was also a victim of a stupid scheme here, but guess we will see

yeah...things arent as tight as here....and is kinda telling that the loyalty was a one and done You can kinda see it tho as they still had quite a few players who acted like assbags on the field still....so not a lot has changed there really You dont see guys here acting like tools on the field over and over...and that is also self policed by a group of guys who pay for one another

yeah we find that othe DT who is a disruptor our defence is gonna be really good....active and athletic....kinda pumped how this all panned out Offense should be our focus if there anyone left who is impactfull.....Jury is still out on ZC and if he has anything left and the last few yrs were just a result of several factors....or is he in fast decline....so surrounding him with the best talent we can get needs to be a focus oh maybe.....I just figured he was still kicking around...of not....no loss

I think we may be done on the defensive side of the ball We effectively have one spot open in the secondary...Corner and can see Allen there, or competing with one the interesting guys we have signed...plus we need to go entry level there to balance things out...alot of scratch invested in secondary already with Nichols..Holm..Kramdi and Moxy all in at over 140k at minimum, tho dont know Moxey's exact numbers I do hope we put Kramdi at safety and be the best place for him were his limitations wont hurt us...Griffin or Woodbey should be our SAM and with Jones and Wilson basically locked in, ause thats just how we operate...The Canadians in Shay and Smith who need to play, and on entry level deals which we need, there really is no more room on defence Lawson and Ceresna gonna eat a lot of inside reps...WJ obviously in th mix and I sure Jenkins and Jaworski gonna get every opp to be the 2 other ends, with Bailey as support. I dont see anyone really available now inside or out that would offer us a ton, so it's likely up to scouting to find that other import DT, which I okay with....Sadly that plug Korn gonna factor in the mix as well as ...well we have no other viable Canadian to spell off Lawson, Tho we could use Bailey, or one of the Canadian linebackers as we do rotate guys a ton...almost too much in my opinion...hard for guys to get in a real flow with constant shuffling around Schmeck I'd prefer over Korn...but he wont be ready i would think to start the yr, and tho either are not ideal at least Schmeck has forged a lil niche on jumbo package/shortyardage on offence and goaline...short yardage on defence....and truth be told, he probably gets off the ball at the snap quicker than anyone we had last yr... If we do any other signings...I think it's gonna be on offensive side

U can guarantee most if not all those big deals we did prior to Jan has money on the 2025 books We had and likely still have $ to spend..and wouldn't shock me if we grab another nice piece I wouldn't be shocked if its another one of the best available canadian recievers

Oh no I agree...Osh has that effect for sure...i wont discredit that...but the organization does too and how we go about things ...group effort And yup...if he has learned when and where to cut the cord...we should be fine....I just want to see now a true TC and may the best win spots...and adjust ratio as need be

Dinwiddie making hay there...Ott will be legit thbs yr and their Bacjup QB....Not sure who they have behind old man river there....but i if he goes down now...Yikes Interesting that they cannot retain all key players after a Grey Cup yr, and some at discount like we wer able to several post Grey Cup yrs in a row...tho we played that game a lil too long....but still...Guess the culture and wanna to run thru walls for Mace aint what its all made out to be...plus...It's always gonna be ....Regina

Never thought of that too...could actually use that this yr and Stan could be a good candidate...tho I fully expect him as a starter Ceresna gonna wanna establish himself again and I expect he will...not concerned with a meniscus injury sustained in first half of last yr Slay the draft now...we cooking And its gonna be Hella tough for a newbie to Crack the secondary...but I like that problem Solid...and we will have Woodbey and Griffin all over the field just making plays

So in one off season...we effectively have: Pooched the worst excuse of an O.C in likely decades Dropped our 2 worst starters and added best available DT and fack even John Bonk would been better than Kolo so whoever grabs it in camp is better and our oline is better...as we added the best tackle in league Signed all our must haves and lost nobody who will be missed Grabbed the best Cdn WR available (see ya Corcoran) and one of the 3 top WR...and likely the best one to suit our system...with an OC familiar with him Grabbed a top DB who is in his prime and is a vet and knows the league inside and out Can't argue with what Walters has done....Osh can't fuxkk this up now...can he? And if he does...apple and roadway time cause all the excuses and good will has all but evaporated Lawson gonna thrive learning from Jake...and not Thomas haha Those 2 inside...holy havoc I can see us going after Bissett or Kurly Wurly and if we we do..one of them..Demski..Neild...CLercius...Cobb...more than enough depth to make 3 Canadian WR work

Next yr yeah...I don't see it this yr...do u really expect the GOAT to be shuffled...even more so...U think Broxton expects it...doubt it.. If best oline config is 3 imports...then u do it..plain and simple ...and i said i expect Randolph at guard already Kramdi isnt our best SAM option even though we pay him as best in league Any team would kill and pay handsomely for a Canadian kicker to do all 3 and free up a DA spot Sorry to piss on your kraut but thats just facts Id say top 2 in league last yr... I forgot about vpool...and agree If ratio allowed Randolph be damn good 6th...as dude was a tight end and certainly he athletic enough to be used as that in jumbo and have to be respected

Meniscus is piddly...in season surgery to fix u miss maybe 4..to 6 weeks..crescent tear..they snip it out..and thats that...speaking from experience. Id say stan stays...broxton shifts...Randolph goes inside or is the 6th

Sadly...this the stuff we shoulda been doing last yr...smh Visions of Ceresna and Lawson consuming the attention of the entire enterior oline...and a rb kept in for pass protection...and having athletic ends attacking 1 on 1...or cutting inside with a dude like Griffin or Woodbey flying off the edge...delicious

Seems as so...and definitely wants to redeem himself as a top g.m after sleep walking the last 2..3 yrs and allowing his HC too.much say

I not sure Ford has the accuracy...or a proper platform/mechanics to be an actual passer other than the off script and sandlot type stuff. As a legit dual threat qb...don't see it...but as a change of pace guy...or a 2nd QB on the field with the right plays drawn up...could be valuable, but any notion he can be a legit starter....dont see it...hopefully he does too and accepts a new kinda role for himself

I'm thinking thats a pretty positive given..He wants to win now also..much better chance here If KW lands this big tuna id say our off season was a resounding success..even if thats all we do

I think we got the best all around use guy..and one ZC likely meshes with the best We have 2 legit intruiging talents we need to actually develop and grow with their ups and downs.. Wilson is already about to I bet become a top 3 in the league...only do many balls to go around...the fact we have a real o.c this yr is prob the biggest get...a real one last yr could have got way more outta or offence but we got saddled with an Osh pick and a right dud

As a player...he would have been gone off any other roster prob 3..4 yrs ago...at best end roster guy standing around all game in case the other DT's went out...would never had reps at end like here over actual ends either...his lifeline was Osh I'm sure hes a swell guy..but that doesn't constitute playing time.. and sure he worked hard and was a good teammate.. who here didnt or wasnt? Again...not a reason for a 4 yr free ride...the ire he got was justified as he basically sucked for yrs..and i guess osh is to blame partly for that as he enabled it We've seen a lot of Osh's picks too...player and coach...and some were pathetic and unjustified too...proof is in the puddin that Osh makes a lot of bad picks But like I said earlier...won't make or break us...just a dumb mercy hire really Who got the least amount of reps then..when he was actually somewhat adequate for spelling guys off? That why was solid...yrs later and half the adequate player he was...he got lions share...plus reps at end over actual ends...do explain the science of that

I have a hard time seeing that as earned tho either..and is a kick to the corn flakes to actual coaches working and putting in the time at varying levels And I not a grumpy senior lol...but coach..train and see what coaches do...could care less how a middling dt acted during his career...irrelevant... I do have a mean streak tho 😁 Nah...he can still play at top level...its durability and stagnating depth behind him Its Kramdi who def isnt best option for SAM...is not needed for ratio and is gonna be our second highest paid defender likely
