Simonise is a guy I'd like to see us get - but he's probably a two year guy here and that's it. If he shows absolutely anything at all in the CFL, he's going to the NFL. I'd take it though, our championship window is open.

I'm not sure what to think of Simonise.   He has the physical tools, but even in the CJFL, he got shut down by better teams.  They got in his head, and he was ineffective.   He's been called the "Canadian Duron Carter", and I'm not sure that works in our lockerroom.

I watched the OL guys do the 3-cone and shuttle up-close, and Sheply looked kinda 'small' standing around next to most of the others. Had to go back and double-check his weight, and it turned out he was right up there with the other guys at 305. He's definitely leaner and more muscular though, and his testing numbers compared to everyone but Korte show that.

Guys I'm watching closely today in 1 on 1's:

 

Jackson Bennett DB Ottawa...guy is a freaking beast.  Seen him play enough to know he's going to play in the CFL, just trying to figure out his ceiling.

Dagogo Maxwell DB UBC...physical testing amazing, always has been, on-field hasn't matched.

Godfrey Onyeka DB Laurier...WIL body, moves like a DB.

Bo Banner DE Central Washington...in a class by himself among DE's in this combine physically.  Want to see how he matches up to the OL here.

Micah Teitz LB Calgary...real impressed with his testing, overshadowed in Calgary over the years.

 

The receivers vs DB's in general is going to be great.  There's not a lot of separation in that group in testing.

Banner can beat all these OL around the edge.  Need to see some moves.

From the clips, Banner's biggest asset was his speed. I don't recall seeing him power past any O-linemen.

Banner and Wade the only DL even getting off the line in the interior drill.  McGlaun has a bit of push and motor but he's fat.  

Shepley and Korte looking best of OL.

We prefer gravitationally challenged.

Id like to see the amount benched scale with position/weight. Just doesnt make sense to me having a 200 lbs wr who will face 200 lbs or less dbs, and 220 ish sams/Ss bench the same as a linemen. Kinda of a peeve of mine. 

havent watched any drills or tests yet, looks like a few guys put up really good jump numbers though.  Its great to see the over all athleticism at skill positions moving up. 

Any one at the event? how is the atmosphere / presentation?

A few of the H-back types doing well in blocking, Tanner Green and David Mackie.

Atlee Simon getting killed. 

Might just be me, or a fondness of those guys/position but it seems like the CIS really churns out those big body Hback type guys.

Chapman and Simonise putting a lot of balls on the turf.  Petermann looks special, as does Onyeka, the DB.   Had a vision of the Bombers snagging Onyeka and pairing him with Loffler as kind of combo WIL's/Safety.  I think Hall had that vision too based on his mug after Onyeka's 2nd rep in the ones on ones.
