June 26, 20214 yr comment_508008 You want to have depth in training camp at all positions. Who knows what kind of shape some of these guys are in.

I will be the first to admit due to COVID, I am out of practice. Once I've got my second shot I'll have to heckle slow mall walkers and anti-vaxxers to get myself up to speed before August 5th. Desperate times call for desperate measures.

For that level his read and discipline is tremendous. He also shows excellent explosive strength tackling. He instantly takes a lot of ball carriers from vertical to horizontal. With 2 years worth of rookie imp recruitment I very much doubt any one brought in late for camp will be tcf. I would strongly suspect these guys are being brought in for their polish and adaptive speed to the cfl game. Not monster athletes who have superstar potential.

I did not see Thomas shed any blocks or out-run anyone. His tackles were here he ran between would-be blockers and got to the ball carrier. He did have couple of INTs but some college film footage would have been a better measure.
July 3, 20214 yr comment_508437 without the benefit of pre-season games, its a totally waste to bring in tcfs. barring any injuries, there’s only one starting position left to fill which is the field-side CB. the new guys need to be solid for them to at least be considered for a spot on the PR.

Tcf can be useful as fall guys to let vets go hard and take less reps but ya this team in this situation doesn't really make sense. 45 minutes ago, Tracker said: I did not see Thomas shed any blocks or out-run anyone.

You don't see a lot of block shedding in hs. Short of some really good prep school vs a state contender which doesn't happen as much out side play offs. But ya he doesn't seem to have jets.

I think it’s fairly unreasonable to say that after 600+ days off, there’s only one starting position to fill. Who knows what the time off will have done to mainstays.
