You gloat about calling ONE obscure fifth round pick and they NEVER let you hear the end of it

2014 Draft Picks
In terms of what I think you can expect of Briggs and Jones ... Ceiling is a bit higher in each case because the comparables didn't quite meet potential but think Yurichuk and Beswick

I like how he phrases it as if we are in disbelief that he could pull off such a great move

Great move if it is. They have Hecht/MacDougall right now, and I'm not sure either is capable. It just makes sense. Like I said on Twitter I don't think 1 was the goal, I think they dealt to get ahead of Montreal AND BC, which they did. Why would they deal a guard to draft a center to move their center to guard?

I'm going on record and predicting Calgary moved up to leapfrog Montreal. I think it's for Pruneau.

It is.

It wasn't Farhan Lalji that speculated Lavertu to Calgary, it was CFL_News retweeting him and adding his own thoughts

I'm trying to figure this out. Is Pruneau going first overall?

Wow. Desjardins.

I had the exact same top 6 when I mocked it earlier barring trades.

It's true. They may pick Goossen but they don't like him anywhere near as much as they like Lavertu. One is plug and play, one is a project

Looks like you're going to end up being right. I'll give you credit for calling it as early as you did.

Yeah this one gets a big fart noise from me. Not a big fan of Kuale.

Especially when he's not interested in signing a new one.

I know they love the guy and nobody wants to give up a roster player, but if I'm Walters, I'm hardballing Buono. I don't want two picks for the #2, I want #5 and a guy like Haidara. oh i agree, 2 picks isn't enough. I was thinking like #5 and westerman. But haidara works too. I'd rather have Haidara to be honest.

I know Walters likes him, but I don't really see a true fit in terms of where they are picking.

I think Pruneau is going to be a guy that goes a lot earlier than people expect. I've thought out scenarios where he goes as high as 3rd.

Can't wait to hear what this is. Anyone care to speculate? Wouldn't that be the news that CFLPA is suggesting a strike vote? It's already 1:20 PM in Sportsnet's EST time zone and that news came out about 90-120 minutes ago.

Posted it on Twitter this morning, the 2014 increase that the owners proposed equates to 3.6% of the new revenue. Absolutely disgusting.

Figured we could get one central thread going for all the articles, tweets, thoughts and comments of the day. I encourage everyone to join the chat tonight as well.

New "Name" LB
I saw the Vikings just released him this morning. He'd be great. Maybe I'm just reading too much into it, but that could be a reason they couldn't give out a name yet last night and Lawrence would be a near perfect fit for what Etcheverry wants to do, even more so than Kuale.

I think it's going to be Simoni Lawrence. It makes sense ...

I agree with you, but the catch is that I don't think people are sure of whether or not Goossen is a sure fire starter. I don't know if this is a fair comparison, but Goossen basically comes across as Pencer in terms of projecting a developmental curve.
