Damn, I need to get on these things earlier... I'm always to excited to pick someone that hasn't been selected yet, you beat me to it... Going to have to think about it more now!

I'm gonna predict the standing but not the records... Why? I just think it could be a very even race across the entire CFL this year... eg 11-7 could win the division while 8-10 misses out on the playoffs... anyways... West: 1. Calgary 2. Edmonton 3. Winnipeg 4. Sask 5. BC East: 1. Hamilton 2. Toronto 3. Ottawa 4. Montreal

What I don't understand is Justin Dunk reported that the BC players declined PR spots and thus were considered FAs... no problem with that... but then he also says that Sask has to add them to the active roster immediately... if they were FAs then could they not be added to any part of the roster?

YES! YES! YES! YES!.... big fan of this move...

I'm surprised Dillon Guy would not accept a PR spot... maybe his ego was high since he was considered a "first round talent" but obviously fell in the draft due to his injury concerns... I would have guessed he would be willing to stick around for at least one year on the PR...

This made me laugh... but I am legitimately wondering the same thing...

I was thinking the same thing... don't remember much from him in practice/games... I agree with you, Flanders would be a much better back up.... but you simply can't ignore the ratio, and that's all there is to it... There's no chance Castillo makes the game day roster... you simply can't DI two kickers...

I'll qualify this by agreeing that it's meaningless... but it sure is fun to see Sask be the only 0-2 team in pre-season...

I gotta wonder if Butcher has any interest in switching sides... he must know the chances of career longevity and big pay days are much higher as an O-lineman... unless you're one of the few exceptions like Doug Brown or Ted Laurent...

Winning solves all... if they perform well on the field, all will be forgiven... Just like if Kelly had won his last game here and made the playoffs, things certainly would have gone down differently... but yes, completely agree with you...

guy in the video sounds like he says dee-EH-kay... I'm sure either one is good...

O-line play is more about technique than size... but also Bryant (6'5, 311), Daniels (6'4, 312), Goossen (6'4, 305), Chungh (6'4, 300), Neufeld (6'6, 312), Keeping (6'5, 300), and Bond (6'6, 329) are all adequately sized to play O-line...

Can anyone verify the pronunciation of Dieke... here are the options I've considered... Deek, Dyke, DI-key, Dee-EK, DI-ek, DI-eek

When I saw his picture and a breaking news aspect, I assumed it would be that he was announcing his retirement... for good, this time...

The players with this designation beside their names are pretty much the only ones I have interest in... OG also acceptable (Offensive Guard or Original Gansta, either way I'm good)...

midnight eastern... if you were referencing the Bombers announcements, they just chose to make them public the next day...

Randle might be one of the only players that actually stood out for having a good game...

I just watched the highlights of the Tor-Ham game... I guess along with the new tailgate area they were also having a "dress like an empty seat" promotion night... good to see the fans were getting into it...

Don't forget Jones did manage to have a championship defense with Cauchy Muamba at safety last year... he has the ability to effectively hide someone at safety...

I watched the game on PVR, so kind of in fast motion... but that being said, I was concerned with a lot of things I saw last night... specifically on offense... receivers not getting open... O-line opening up some major holes... for the wrong team... Drew Willy holding onto the ball for too long... the offense being based around 3 yard dump passes (hopefully that can be attributed to the pre-season playbook)... I really don't feel comfortable with a bend-don't-break defence... I'd like to see more 2-and-outs and more pressure up front... we basically brought an entirely back-up D-line so I'm hoping that's a major factor.... never the less, this team has some work to do... and I really hope they fix up these things before the real tests being...

Our LS is actually a WR by trade... though no one ever expects to see him on the offense... unless you're referring to Tim Cronk, the back up (possibly 3rd string after Wild)... he's a FB...

I believe Mtl, cgy and EDM have around 10 Canadian O-linemen... there's got to be a few decent depth guys that shake out from one of those cities...

Draft starts at 6 central, kick off is at 7:30.... I imagine the Jets pick will happen some time before 6:30...

Burnett at SAM and Leggett moving back to safety is certainly a possibility...

I will state definitively that Drew Willy WILL make the team... you heard it here first!
