There are lots of dumbasses in america and apparently quite a few in rider land. "Make Rider Nation Great Again" captioned on the front of an ugly green cap.

They would've known about this guy for a while, so I'm wondering what it was that took him so long to come up. He was Zavian Bingham's teammate at Jackson State last year - they wanted Bingham too, but SSK neg-listed him.
June 7, 20178 yr comment_266797 He signed with Oakland at the end of April... doesn't seem to be any mention of when he was released anywhere though.

What made a certain wide-bodied receiver (who began his CFL career in Calgary) so effective was his delight in punishing the D-backs who tried to tackle him. Towards the end of some games, they would sort wave at him as he went by them.

More what I'm getting at is was it his choice to not be here for the start of camp because of NFL opportunities or is he a late add because he's far down our list? Because he looks good. He looks like what we want Gerrard Sheppard to be. I'm watching his highlight film and literally half of it is him destroying guys on blocking assignments or chasing down kicks on specials.

He's got a little CFL/Bombers connection already too... his OC in 2014/15 was Tim Chang.
June 7, 20178 yr comment_266804 Certainly one of the better video presentations I've seen in awhile, good football too.
June 7, 20178 yr Author comment_266805 His 40 time is really impressive for a guy that size. Edited June 7, 20178 yr by sweep the leg
June 7, 20178 yr comment_266806 http://3downnation.com/2017/06/07/alouettes-ink-national-and-local-defensive-back/ So the Redblacks have already cut the guy they drafted in the second round in 2016 right ahead of Calhoun, and three spots ahead of Loffler.

How bad do you have to be to get cut as a 6'4" Canadian defensive back with a high pre-draft ranking and one year under your belt?

June 7, 20178 yr comment_266809 As for Justin Warden, I'm surprised they hung on to him this long as I can't recall ever seeing him involved in a play nor heard his name mentioned since he joined the club in 2015. He must have contributed something as he outlasted both Brendan Morgan and Teague Sherman.

He got cut after training camp in 2015 and went back to school. Then he got added to our PR in September 2016, came back for camp this year, and now he's gone.

Big and Strong, just what every team needs. someone mentioned the Raiders, might be confusion there Oakland had a DT by same name who was cut as a cap move.
