March 13, 20178 yr comment_253868 Auclair intrigues me. I wonder if BC would consider trading #3 for #1 Edited March 13, 20178 yr by Dirty30

Man that would be sick i cant see them giving that much though. if there was a guy like henoc at the top that was gonna be on the team this year maybe. Id actually rather trade down to say 3 for a depth pick this year 2-4th and a first next year. We are allready deep picking this year.

March 13, 20178 yr comment_253914 If we traded down like that, we could still grab Vandervoort at 3, thus avoiding the worst ever first overall pick, eva! I don't think BC would do it, but it would makes things interesting having 3, 6, and 7.
March 13, 20178 yr comment_253928 Pretty slack chit chat this year... is everyone afraid to post because they haven't seen Vandervoort and every other prospect play live?
March 13, 20178 yr comment_253931 I'm sure the draft talk will pickup once the final rankings are out & the combine has happened. Who gets drafted, signed, invited to NFL camp will also affect where players land... lots of variables still in play.

If only we had a full combine roster.

There is a world of difference between coming up playing TE, and going from a stocky wr to nik lewis a good ways into a pro career. Size / weight distribution, TE skill set, NI etc.

Love a big bruising NI back who flashes hands, versatile, can block, and plays teams. Every team in the league can use a guy like this.

Not a fan of comparisons, an interesting read all the same. I think its fairly clear that Ferguson has never seen Vandervoort play in real life, then he would understand the excellence of execution. Baumann was like the worst first overall pick ever... now way he's comparable to Vandervoort.

On one hand I can appreciate that he isn't just throwing out hype and creating unrealistic expectations, but on the other hand, I expected to recognize all of the names he was comparing players to. So you're telling me Connor McGough could be the next Cameron Walker? I don't know what to do with that information.
March 15, 20178 yr comment_254168 Had the same thoughts... who the f**k are most of these guys? I had to look half of them up... might have been more if there weren't a couple ex-Bisons listed. I now expect Connor McGough to rack up a whopping 8 tackles on teams over the next 2 years & Mason Woods should average 1 start a year for the next 4 seasons.

He's a Hamilton guy... so I would think he's comparing most of these guys to players that Toronto/Hamilton fans would know. His mock draft is pretty good https://www.cfl.ca/2017/03/08/mock-1-0-will-bombers-take-first/ And I'm actually not sure why you're blown away by the Cam Walker comparison...?

March 15, 20178 yr comment_254192 If he compared Vandervoort to Fantuz everyone would be like, yeah, this guy makes so much sense... Pretty sure he's not predicting 'hits or misses' just body types and technique, etc...

Sure we get that... but usually when you compare future draft picks to current/past players it's generally done with all-stars or very good players... to give an idea of their potential... if you want to get fans psyched up about the draft you say Vandervoort is Fantuz, Mason Woods is Matt O'Donnell, Boateng is Brent Johnson, Eli Ankou is Doug Brown, etc... PS - I'm not saying any of these comps are accurate... just making a point...
March 15, 20178 yr comment_254204 I think we are missing out on the real questions we should be asking on Vandervoort. 1. What is his hair like? 2. Is his mom hot? 3. If answer to #2 above is "yes", or even better "oooo baby" then the follow on question is - will she come to training camp in short shorts?
