We've gone CND at safety and that's probably the spot where we could use an upgrade the most... linebackers are fairly set as IMP and on the DL we've already drafted our Thomas replacement/backup for Kongbo. Fairly obvious we don't need to spend an early pick on OL for the next draft given our current situation (maybe a later round pick on someone who needs training but has the right body). Receiver could be an option for an early CND pick depending on how much they like Demski/Petermann, RB I think we're set with Oliviera/Augustine/Harris. With the amount of free agents it's really hard to see how the 2020 roster even looks from this far out. Noeller 1

I think we already have our next safety on the roster. Exume has all the skills to play the position. Noeller 1

Noeller Posted September 13, 2019 Report Posted September 13, 2019 (edited) If Exume was a potential safety, why wouldn't he have gone higher in the draft? He went nearly last because all he does is STs... Or so I thought...? Edited September 13, 2019 by Noeller
Floyd Posted September 13, 2019 Report Posted September 13, 2019 Not sure how Exume jumped Derek Jones and Dondre Wright as our next starting safety besides being good at special teams... and 'new' Would be a nice story but I don't see it happening - think he mostly played Field CB anyway

Just curious, have you ever seen him play safety? Being a good/great gunner =/= all the skills to play safety.
Floyd Posted September 13, 2019 Report Posted September 13, 2019 Patrice Rene will fall like Loffler did... would be a steal in the 4th Dev Lamour has a great name - I hope we pick him Auclair looks like he could be a safety prospect too

No cups between 77 and 02 C'mon now, that's not fair. Montreal didn't have a team from 1987 - 1995. Not only that, the team they became (Baltimore Stallions), actually won the Grey Cup in 1995. The only American CFL team ever to do so.

O-Shea: "Hey Derek, we just lost Loffler, we know you're a starter and you've certainly paid your dues, how would you like to start at Safety this year? Jones: "Ah...sure Coach, wherefore does I stand?" O-Shea: "Hmmm......Derek, meet Jeff Hecht." Jones: "Gee, he's a real shorty." Hecht: "Hi Derek, if you've got a minute can you give my socks a quick rinse." Jones: "......hokay."

History says Walters always pick an OL or DL on first round. Couture will be an FA after this year and surprise retirement(s) happens. So always pick top prospect(s) for the trenches.

Serviceable is right.... Hecht is good with the ball in the air but once he’s gotta make a play in the open field he’s pretty ... bad shadybob and Noeller 2

Nice to think it's a seamless timeline but in reality today's AL'S are just the relocated Stallions. Bigblue204 1

Floyd Posted September 13, 2019 Report Posted September 13, 2019 I think Walters trades his pick again - got some Cdns on this team that will be expensive to keep think we restock our LB/DBs this year like he did with receivers a couple years ago
Mr Dee Posted September 13, 2019 Author Report Posted September 13, 2019 You think some our refs are bad, this is downright brutal: blue_gold_84 and GCJenks 2
Booch Posted September 13, 2019 Report Posted September 13, 2019 So Hughes has been one-gamed...I guess ol Dickie trying to preserve him so he doesn't fall off the map yet again as he has seemed to already have started his swoon.. Stickem and Noeller 2

Mr Dee Posted September 15, 2019 Author Report Posted September 15, 2019 By the bye.. Blocked FG? Really? Ticats 4 turnovers. Calgary 0 Saskatchewan finds a way to win yet again? The Riders are 8-3 with Fajardo as the starting quarterback. Lesson learned. Don’t count on anybody else to help you in the standings.
Floyd Posted September 15, 2019 Report Posted September 15, 2019 (edited) I actually love watching Fajardo succeed the same way we pulled Nichols off the scrap heap... now who is the next great ‘journeyman’... both these guys lucked out with coordinators that suited their skills... ie McAdoo sucks and so does Fajardo so it kind of works jennings, Franklin, Evans all don’t jive with their OCs Someone should sign Mitchell gale...!!
