The decision on receivers has to be who fits the offense best mostly meaning who works best with the QB's.
Kind of in a bind if our returner isn't an offensive player so it would be nice if a guy like Stearns saw that as a path to make the team and refused to take no for an answer on getting reps on punts.

No.
For the most part teams know who they are starting the season with.  Maybe a couple openings.  Guys are getting evaluated to make PR and get called back when injuries hit to make their mark in regular season and keep their careers going, or the next guy gets called in to try to take the spot.

Cooley will get a lot of film anyways.
Wouldn't mind if they gave Chris-Ike some reps at tailback as he might be backing up there.

What about Vaughters?

Subjective.
Ayers has a strong hype train right now.  Good special teamer last year.  Started a couple games.  Yeah looked good, not a ton of snaps.  Certainly not a mainstay by any means.
There's always 3-4 of these guys hanging on a team or in a camp.  Lots of them never become impact guys.
Both Jones guys are "scrap heap."  J Jones had one really good year out of 3 in the CFL.  Toronto didn't want to pay him more than rookie deal money.  That's a tale old as time in the CFL.  One team doesn't think a guy can perform to the money he's likely owed on a next contract, another team signs the guy and he's MODP of the whole league, or MOP if it's a QB.  Guy could be an all-star, or junk.
Wilson has been among the worst players on the field since he got injured in 2022.  He's done.
Griffin is getting on the roster IMO and he's not going to start in the secondary or at LB.  He's going to be a Swiss army knife type guy and anchor on special teams.  So that's who is more likely to squeeze Ayers off the roster with the current unsettled returner issue flipping the roster around a bit.  Another issue is how many American receivers they decide to dress.

I don't see why Willie Jefferson wouldn't be the 8th as a naturalized.  Him or Bryant.

I'll disagree on that.  For sure any player has room for growth, but he's shown those two things any chance he's got to.  Starting with the road game in Calgary when he caught a huge first down from Streveler on a 2nd and long when the receiving corps was pure chaos down our top two Americans.  He played that role well when Wolitarsky was out last year.  But our American receivers were mostly garbage last season.  Wilson had some big games and otherwise was a disappearing act.  No one else was even average in their role.
He actually only had 2 games without a catch last year, which he didn't start.  And he caught at least one pass for a first down in the majority of games he played.  A lot of those being the 7 yard pass, get the 2-3 yards after that to convert.  Clercius had the best percentage of targets caught of our regular receivers last season.  I expect him to get 4-5 targets a game, and be in the range of 3-4 catches a game for 40-45 yards.
