I'm pretty sure Constanza will be given a bigger role internally than just "RB coach", he'll be involved in the game planning with Buck. Don't think he would have come here otherwise.

Really like the Constanza hire

curious as to why TB4E thinks Streveler being a div 2 QB is such a big deal and can’t still mean he’s elite athletically. Someone should look up where Carson Wentz went to college and how little that mattered to pro scouts Streveler is an elite athlete whether he went to LSU or Red River College. That’s why the NFL wants to take a look at him.

Right, but the NFL is doing a similar global initiative. That’s how this Mulumba guy is getting his shot. It just doesn’t seem to make a lot of sense for it, but I’d be happy to see otherwise

Mulumba didn't participate in the combine, since he's going to the NFL (highlighting the biggest issue with this CFL 2.0 initiative) and the other Finland combine guy who played US college ball didn't make it due to travel issues.

Apparently Brian Cage signed with AEW ... really like this signing for them, he's not a giant in terms of height but he's a physique they don't really have on the roster right now and he can go with the smaller guys. Lots of matches I'd love to see ... Cage/Omega probably at the top of that list. Marty apparently isn't the head booker and is only on the booking team, but one of his main purposes is allegedly to establish a working relationship with AEW (don't see that happening)

Streveler is almost definitely gone, he doesn't need to be a quarterback in the NFL, he can be an athlete and teams will find ways to use him.

You know who really sucks? gbill

If you’re wondering why Canadian quarterbacks don’t get a chance, it’s because 99.999999999% of the time, it’s a waste of time. Canadians get drafted as OL and DL because it’s so much easier to learn the position than it is to learn how to play QB. Investing in potential at those positions can pay quicker dividends. There’s never going to be a QB version of David Onyemata or Efe Obada, there’s never going to be a QB that converted to football from another sport like Antonio Gates or Jimmy Graham. You need a long period of development and high level coaching to succeed as a professional QB.

We have wife beaters and crack dealers and drunk drivers in our league right now. Can’t take a stance on the new guy until you deal with those.

Serious question - do you think you’d care this much if your son didn’t play QB?

Why not, though? It doesn’t change anything other than who you dress on O or D, it’s easy to abuse this.

Sounds like it’s just a tryout, not a contract though

Randy Ambrosie is honestly a ******* joke. Just read the Walters interview where he said that as it was explained to him at the beginning of 2019, the NFL window would allow you to let players (Kongbo, as an example) try out and sign with NFL teams even if they weren’t on an expiring deal. Now the rules change after the season and after we spend a first round pick on him? That should be a major point of contention for any GM in the league. Ambrosie is doing an awful job for the league at this point, but hey at least we’re gonna be able to put some guy from Finland that nobody’s ever heard of on our roster this year, even though he’s not fit to carry a ball bag.

lol what?!

Honestly, something is up with Jefferson if you ask me. Not sure what the situation is, but he's definitely exaggerated something along the way this off-season. In his words, his workout was such a hit that Miami cut it short because he'd shown them everything they wanted to see - if that's the case, what's the holdup on a deal? Unless the deal isn't as close due to money, fit, etc. Willie has to be on an active roster, not a PR so if he's going to break camp with the Dolphins, he better be sure he's going to make the team or he's taking a hit on money in 2020. I still see Willie coming back to the CFL, but honestly, if he goes south then I think we'll be in a good spot to replace him. Drop off is obvious, but McCalister could come in and actually have a role. Wouldn't be the absolute worst.

The stupidest thing they could do is mess with our uniforms. The only thing I’d like to see is for them to get rid of the blue shoulders on the whites.

I’m just glad there’s no game so I can go now.

No game on my wedding day is all I care about. 6 PM kickoff for Labour Day is weird, hope they don't have to carry me into the stadium with that late start.

I see Mason Bennett going before our pick that’s for sure

Him and Sage Doxtater both deferred their draft year to 2021 I think

Rider fans trying to spin this? I never would’ve believed it! Great news for us, happy to see them back and happy Lapo has moved on.

Yeah it might be nice to have a 700 yard receiver or two next year

I’m not a big LaPolice guy as far as our OC spot goes but to say he wasn’t responsible on some level for our running success is up there with the dumbest stuff ever written on this forum.

Dunno why people think Masoli is a good fit for a LaPolice offense ... he’s not
