    That's kind of harsh. There's more than a few crappy sportscasters from all around the country working in front of the camera or behind the mic on radio. He's a bad football pbp announcer but that sho

  • This is one of the most insane statements I've ever seen on this board. Wow. I'm not sure I'd trade the #1 for anyone outside of BLM and even then......  Other than lose his job to Shitty Burris,

    The key is making wise safe selections.  I see nothing wrong with the picks we've made so far. You need to have a high volume of picks in the top three rounds and and do your due diligence. We've adde

Bisons Geoff Grey (currently ranked #5 by the CFL Scouting Bureau) got a mention in today's Shrine Bowl:

 

Too bad he finished a great block off with what likely would have drawn some sort of holding penalty in a real game.

Holding?  They don't call that in the CFL

I'd rather Gray and a receiver out of our first two picks.  Herdman really thinks he's gonna make the NFL.  We need players out of those picks, not guys to wait on.

Gray is an engineer too, so might not be into football for the long haul.

Do we?  If we're getting a great player I don't mind waiting for a year or two.  I don't really see the benefit of taking a lesser player who will come in and play special teams and maybe rotate in on offence/defence for a few snaps.  We already have plenty of guys like that.  I think the team is in a good enough position now that we can afford to wait on a star rather than intentionally taking a worse player just to have them in the lineup right away.

I'm not advocating that at all.  There's a handful of guys among a group of really good players who are really chasing the NFL or have legit NFL interest.  That has to factor into decision making when deciding who to pick.  As a for instance, based on what I've seen I wouldn't single Senior out of the top group of OL as being more dominant, but he has pedigree and a legit NFL shot.  In the CFL it's very likely Grey is a better player when all is said and done.

I see.  Certainly I wouldn't want to use a top pick on a guy who has been drafted or signed an FA deal.  But Grey will almost definitely get a mini-camp invite and we've seen that that can turn into an NFL deal (rarely, but possible).  I'd still use a top pick on him for sure.  I put Herdman in that same category.

Jordan, who we've been talking about is a MLB.

He has a twin brother Justin, who is an Outside Linebacker and is also apparently pretty good.

They are from Winnipeg and are James Reed's sons.

has the cfl updated their top 10 list for this years draft as of yet, or is that after the combine 

After the combine.  Usually comes out mid- to late-April.

I'd reckon the next project for the league is getting the damn schedule out. That's usually around this time of year...
