Let's say you're correct and the teams sticks with Castillo and a global to punt... how does that effect the roster composition?... Castillo has to be DI'd and the punter just counts as one of our two globals? No effect on how many Canadians dress?

I think I recall hearing he has university eligibility and it’s likely that was the plan for him all along.

I know these are just TC numbers... but I really hope the club isn't issuing #33 just yet

For some reason my GIF search isn't working... I wanted to add a "Quadmire giggity" gif in here... so everyone just use your imagination I agree that Wilson and Jeffcoat are definitely concerns due to their injury history... but I have little concern about Oliveira and Biggie... those guys are going to be ready to go.

Except that drive and passport are two completely different and unrelated things… @Mr. Perfect is correct that Kongbo was never spectacular here… his biggest contribution was providing competent reps so Willie and Jeffcoat could stay fresh… the question is not about what Kongbo was but what can he become given the opportunity… I think we’d all love to have him back but it’s not necessarily earth shattering

this is true.. but what people are complaining about is not the info O'Shea is refusing to share... what people want to hear about is what is happening at camp/practice... a reporter should be able to obtain that info by simply attending camp and paying attention.

I know this is not going to happen... but how hilarious would it be for the riders if Fajardo came out and actually did light it up for the Als? 😅

is this in response to something or just your random musings for the day?? this is actually perfectly said... can't believe I'm saying that about a @17to85 post... I kid, I kid 😁

At this point, he's basically a coach... except on game day

Fair enough and thanks for the input... I don't really know much about MOS Jr... just trying to think of ways he might try to make his mark

he would be an extreme long shot to make the team as a wr... but what about the possibility of being a special teamer?... no one is unseating Janarion just yet but wasn't MOS Jr a dynamic returner in the BC jr league?

The CFL generated headline in this tweet is misleading... he Ferguson doesn't actually say Edm has the best wr group... but does say they are good... which is a fair comment.

had to make a slight adjustment there for you...

I remember legitimately laughing out loud when I watched that play... a true pro receiver making a pretend corner look like exactly what he is...

doesn't seem like anyone to get too excited about from this draft... guys like Bennett, Murphy, and Kornelson sound like Bomber-type players... hopefully we'll get some solid teamers or maybe we get lucky and someone emerges as a legit starter... Just keep an eye on how Black and Ringland develop in Ham and BC... so when they are ready to hit the open market and ready to come home...

how early is early?... At this point, it looks like Sow may never come north... if you're going to take a player like that, I'd prefer it 4th round or later.

doesn't necessarily mean there's anything "wrong" with him... he's probably just not that good... based on that 3DN quick write up, it definitely sounds like he has some promise.

I'm happy to hear he's getting another chance... but I just can't imagine he comes back to full health after that injury...

Just for some reference I cross referenced the top names to Dane Brugler's (from the Athletic) full 7 round NFL mock draft and here is where he has the top five players landing: 1. Matthew Bergeron: NFL mock: Round 2, #53 overall 2. Chase Brown: Rd 5, #136 3. Sydney Brown: Rd 4, #104 4. Tavius Robinson: Rd 7, #236 5. Sidy Sow: Rd 5, #146 Robinson might drop out but if he's on the mock there's a good chance he'll sign as an UDFA if he doesn't get drafted... he has the Bears taking Bergeron and Chase Brown

I'm hoping it means maybe he's football smart but not exactly book smart... I do agree that not being academically eligible for college sports does seems like a red flag.

has anyone that young ever earned a tryout before? Does the CFL have rules on age eligibility?

This is fantastic, thanks for posting... makes you wonder why the CFL hasn't done something like this to promote the entire league... it's almost like they don't know what the heck they're doing...

Mike O'Shea saw this hit and immediately said "SIGN HIM NOW!" 😂

I'm actually surprised we don't have a goal line package that includes Willie... then again, when your 1-yard plunge is basically unstoppable... I guess there's no need for tomfoolery...
