I think BC and Edmonton are both very vulnerable, Not really sure how Edmonton improved this off season, They are seemingly worse than last year on paper. Sorenson was their big pick up. BC lost a ton of guys, have a bunch of pressure on them to keep the string of host cities winning the grey cup going. Glenn was a good pickup, He's a pretty good QB but again it's hard to say if they are any better than last season. Think the west is a 2 team fight for first (sask and calgary), 3rd i think is up for grabs.

Ridley says browning is a good fit for the CFL and judging by the video, it's hard to disagree with him. He looks to have all the skills needed to be a good CFL qb. Will he be? Only time will tell, probably won't see the field anytime soon. Not a fan of people who write guys off without seeing them play first.

Richardson must be very injured still, if he was a few years younger, i'd consider him. Sisco and Etienne? I'd look at both, not sure if i had to chose one, which one tho, both are intriguing. Sisco is kind of a bust though but maybe the pressure of playing for your hometown province is too much for some of these guys. Billy Peach? I'd take him immediately, Possibly Matt Vonk also. Not interested in any of the RB'S. we'd only need a RB for a couple of weeks anyways so that would be a hard sell to get any of these guys to sign here. Ottawa releasing Maher is surprising, They have no kickers, that is just weird. Unless they plan on picking up Schott.

Does Montreal have the ability to start 5 american receivers?

Add in 5 or 6 blatant drops by bomber receivers and willy is well over 300 yards, might be closer to 400 yards. Pretty impressive numbers.

Love it, only in winnipeg or possibly regina but i doubt it would you have 3 pages or so talking about a quality control coach. You wouldn't see that anywhere else. Most other places would just ask what a quality control coach is and get the answer and that would be that. Good stuff.

Can't change the past man, it is what it is.

So when are the cuts by all teams expected to be in? Thought it was 1159 last night. Als cuts should be coming any second now, whyte just tweeted he made the team too (like there was any doubt)

Burris looked real good, however the first few series of the game when Montreal was blitzing like crazy, he looked awful, that oline there will be an issue for Ottawa. Montreal though? What the heck has happened, Were they really that good only because of Calvillo? Did AC really make that much of a difference? Got very bored watching the game, the ultra boring rod black and the very bland lapolice, honestly, i could see why lapo didn't really last as a head coach, I'm not sure how anyone could be motivated listening to him speak OK. I hope that was just a temp thing there, black and lapolice cuz yuck that's an ugly duo, ugly to listen too. I could hear lapo in the dressing room when watching, OK boys ok we are gonna ok go out there ok and ook ok ok ok ok. Same old alex brink, 3rd and 15 or so and throws a 5 yard pass. Awesome. Montreal is in trouble and I don't think Ottawa was that great last night, I just think Montreal really really sucked. Johnson was neat, doesn't seem fast enough, first pass to him he goes down without being touched, doesn't get up, fumbles the ball, picks it back up though but still. Is he gonna make the als team? should he?

Anybody there we might be interested in? I really don't see many names

True, Gott and what became the 4th overall pick in Antoine Pruneau. One could make the case that is an overpayment for 33 year old glenn and a retired marwan hage. On the flip side, one could also say that Marcel Desjardins actually made a good move, possibly the first good move he made as GM of the redblacks, the rest have been sort of head scratchers.

If willy gets hurt, i don't think i'd feel too comfortable with Brohm starting, On the flip side, i wouldn't have felt too comfortable with hall starting either so really, It's a wash. Yeah Hall had experience but like KBF said, it was losing experience, 1-8 as a starter doesn't exactly make me jump up and down and go oh boy we got a chance now, Cuz reality is, we probably wouldn't. Hall is gone, won't get picked up. LOL @ tsn comments section, Anybody ever read those comments? people are positive hall will be picked up and starting in the league eventually. I wish i had an account there so i could ask them WHERE.

definitely one of the biggest and more popular allies to have. Bodes well for Bowman.

I think he'll last the season. They pushed all the chips into the middle of the table with that scheme, in terms of the players they've recruited and the positional coaches, Martin, McDiarmid and Scheper are Etcheverry's coaching posse. Now that I think for a second, Jackson might be one of Etcheverry's guys too. Etch was head coach at ottawa, was jackson a member of his staff at that time?

13 coaches this year, how much last year? don't think we had double digits.

full time, he was a guest coach at training camp.

Is this their fall back plan when they fire etch? lol

Just saying here but.. 98 percent of this board called halls release. You are gloating for no reason. We all saw it coming. Do you really think a non mobile joey elliot and alex brink would have fared any differently last season? Last season was more about the coaches and the ridiculous schemes they tried to run instead of about how bad the players were. I'm not sure peyton manning would have done much here last year or russel wilson for that matter but because wilson can scramble and run, he might have looked ok but not much more than ok.

Richardson ahead of Thomas? Anderson buried behind Turner and Thomas? Yikes.

Desjardins will not be the coach of the Pens, Looks like he is now going to be the coach of the canucks. These things seem to change on a daily basis.

QB... WILLY, Brohm, Marve OL... JANUARY, GREAVES, MORLEY, NEUFELD, KNAPP, Goossen REC.. KELLY, MOORE, WATSON, DENMARK, KOHLERT, Feoli-Gudino, Carter, Woods RB... GRIGSBY, Volny, Pontbriand, Fitzgerald DL... VEGA, TURNER, THOMAS, PEACH, Anderson, Richardson LB... BANKS, KUALE, DUNN, Sherman, Wild, Stephan, Cornell DB... RANDLE, WASHINGTON, LEGGETT, SUBER, ALEXANDER, Markett, Bucknor, Jones ST... Hajrullahu, Renaud I can also see us field Everettt as Backup OL/DL in place of an Nat'l LB or CB. Bucknor can also start ahead of Alexander. Knapp can be RG and Neufeld at RT. Not a bad line-up actually, and only 2 - Willy and Leggett - rookie starter in the mix. The soft spot I can see is the LB and RB units. What about bolton instead of grigsby, unamba instead of dunn.

The soft spot I can see is the LB and RB units. Just out of those rostered names I can count 18 guys who are Walters additions. Plus Everett, Cotton, probably a couple others that I won't waste time looking up. Stuff has happened. Also, having watched the presser video now, OShea does say that some of the 11 cut may be invited on the PR. did he? could swear, maybe it was on twitter and i guess twitter is wrong from time to time, thought bauming or someone tweeted that none of them will be on the PR. Going to have to force myself to watch it again, it hurt the first time maybe it won't be so bad this time

a work in progress.

maybe he's a deceptibrohm

personally just want to see a team who won't give up and are competitive. Baby steps i guess is what you can call it.
