No yards?
Stuart was in there as well. Really like both those guys on ST.

Rourke was actually fine his first season. Even starting the first game as rookie he looked good. I kinda think that's why Reilly played the second half, he saw the competition.
I agree with you on Stuart. The size, speed and versatility is too good to give up on.

Coukdnt agree more about roster construct..redundant guys..wasted spots on guys who are limited..plagued us for yrs now..as have said before for all osh's positives he brings..he is not good at creating best game day rosters..and values things in some guys over talent and actual overall usefulness...and this isnt just a last night's game thing...its been a decade long issue

to be fair corc can’t run but he generally catches well and blocks well. kelly needs an apple and a road map

Agree...Likely trajectory for him

I feel like Stuart starts on the practice roster but ends up on the AR by the end and shows promise on team with the potential for a year two beakout to rotational reps.

Kelly and Stuart at HB is interesting.

Yeah...him..shay..Smith...can all be interchangeable..

Stuart nice special teams work..his ticket to roster if he keeps it up

Got out to a few days of camp - was mostly rookie watching - but the list looks pretty locked in. Only noticeable tweak might be Stuart who seemed to be taking reps exclusively at halfback.

Agree - He won both agility drills at the cfl combine this year posting a 4.01 shuttle/6.82 3-cone which for a 223 lb’r is impressive.

Not rooting for - just familiar with his play and think projects well.

My first post so go easy on responses:) I have to agree about draft pick Stuart (#7 - on D) - frankly surprised he hasn’t gotten more mentions from his camp - disagree with early comments he’s just a ST body. My nephew played with him at Mac so I’ve seen many of his college games and he’s a legitimate top tier stud - elite in coverage, in the box and he tackles like a beast.
Here’s a theory - because he’s a non counter - wonder if JY is hiding him with the 3’s until roster trimming is done. Apparently JY talks to him regularly - would be surprised if he isn’t rostered as he’s been taking reps with the 1’s on punt, and regular D reps with the 2’s and done well. With his size (220+) and movement he presents a ton of options - Boundary Safety, Half, SAM or WSLB. My nephew sent a great cut up of Stuart’s camp performance (pretty impressive: multiple picks/PBU’s and dominant in battle drills) - I’d post it but I don’t know how to upload video attachments?

A real champ over achiever. I loved that guy, soo much heart and just played his ass off.
You can really see that trend in our D too. Smith, shay, ayers, and woodbey for starters. We have some other big dbs who are sam tweeners too.
The secondary and second level have soo many guys that are modular and can play many roles from many alignments.
The athleticism of our canadian defensive back ups is really tremendous too. We’ve gone from those guys being the outliers and massive luxuries to that being the barrier for entry.
Most all the those candian D subs are not just athletic outliers, but they are tough nasty hard nosed football players. Not just pile of cross over athletes trying to make a go of it.
That versatile athletic canadian defensive back up core, is going to be a major back bone to our defensive success this year and going forward.

The coverage for training camp has gotten to embarrassingly terrible levels. Just a few fluff pieces, and some individual mentions of nice plays. It would be nice to actually see some actual write ups of what is going on.

My first time I’ve paid much attention to preseason camp - figured Stuart would atleast generated some local attention but the Daniels thing seems to have dominated the media circuit - been crickets on Stuart - nothing from Tait or other local media? TSN and 3down both had him as a top 25 prospect in a NCAA dominated draft class. (Not trying to over hype him but he obviously needs some help in the publicity department!! lol)
Some good audio from 3down on the first few minutes of in his YouTube film for anyone looking for tidbits on the talent pool at camp.
