Him or Peterman please, we seem committed to starting 2 NI Wr. Am fine with Demski and Wolitarsky/Cates but we need another guy imo.

[Tracker]

Ok, here we go. cue the dramatic tension....

[bustamente]

Peterman all ready lets'go

[JuranBoldenRules]

Wow, swing for the fences!

not too surprising. funny weve talked about him for soo many years on here now we got him haha. the best potential of any one left by a mile so its not too surprising. Not exactly the typical character guy we go for though.

I like the pick. I was hoping for another WR and hey why not swing for the fences and try to hit a home run. At worst, you add depth and your 4 game day NI receiver, at best you add a stud NI WR.

Some are waxing poetic over this pick

With Guelph's Andrew Pickett still on the board, I believe this pick may have been better utilized to stabilize depth along the offensive line. -hodge. Wow if we are deep any where at NI its OL.

Me too. Could back fire. But he will be surrounded by some of the best professionals, who will hopefully mentor him.

[JuranBoldenRules]

Hodge is dumb.

You need Canadians that can play all over the roster.  

I want to get a CFL GM so I can do an experiment and never draft an OL.  I bet my team would be great.  All American OL and a bunch of Canadians rotating through 7 spots elsewhere.

simonise didn't look that good at the combine I thought.

Or am I misremembering?

Doesn't make sense to take the 8th best OL when the 2nd best receiver is still on the board, IMO.

Of every one drafted today, no one has been in the mix to be a high pick for soo many years. Idk how any one can hate coming out of the draft with a 2nd round pick getting you probably the highest upside guy available. Hes a guy we could use on teams potentially. He and wolitarski give us the biggest up side among young NI wrs that weve seen in decades. 

[Zontar]

Riders pick next. Prediction: It's going to be great !

8th best OL when we are allready deep at OL with guys here now and futures in the pipe line, or the 2nd best WR with the best upside in a position we could use the help at. Hodge buying into the meme too much.
