April 9, 20241 yr comment_692781 Bombers have signed former Last Chance U star Chauncey Rivers. He's a DE/LB thats bounced around the NFL and spring leagues the last 4 years.

Really strong tackler, a guy whose talent isn’t easily measured. Has tremendous upside. If weed wasn’t the issue that it is in some states and the ncaa, he would’ve stuck at Georgia and probably been a mid to late draft pick. interestingly he was signed traded and cut in the ufl all in a couple weeks this year. Interesting camp guy, boom or bust prospect.

More worrisome when a guy red shirts for academic reasons to me. If you can’t find and stick to the mail it in courses in football schools that’s scary. Though even that I think is over rated. I hate the ncaa development system for sports. It’s soo broken and out of place it’s not even funny. Remember when we had a db pop for mdma a couple years back? Better than that too. I’m pretty sure his reaction would’ve been oh crap they test for none peds? 56 minutes ago, Pete said: he looks to be stronger than Haba, but slower as well. Maybe he loses a bit of weight to help. Habba ran a 4.9 pro day as well but at 240. Some guys don’t translate to track speed just like some track fast guys don’t translate to the field (Barrett the lber last year is a good example) he’s also more quick with an explosive first step like Habba. Idk if his quickness will be still be quick enough for the cfl. But if it is he could be a real gem. Habbas certainly does. He’s also got decent comparisons to jeffcoat, but JJ was faster and way more polished. Imp version of kongbo but with character issues. Though kongbo had run better 40s in the past. I think he tested post injury 4.8 but had run low 4.6 at some point. But college unofficial times are real suspect. can we sign kongbo too please? Some very interesting names still floating as fas.

April 10, 20241 yr comment_692853 Celestin Haba is a super legit athlete. 37.5-inch vertical jump for a defensive end is really really good. I think Chauncey Rivers will be good competition for him with that NFL experience. That's an exciting addition I hope we can get one or two more studs signed on the defensive line

Its not the THC per se but continuing to use when you are already marked and risking almost certain being caught and blowing a career that (theoretically) you have been pursuing is a strong indicator of either being mega stoned or you have the intelligence of dryer lint.

They are good at updating nfl combine prospects but not none invites. Si has his official time at 4.9.

Problem is many schools for pro days do max vert and list as vert instead of no step. 42 minutes ago, Tracker said: Its not the THC per se but continuing to use when you are already marked and risking almost certain being caught and blowing a career that (theoretically) you have been pursuing is a strong indicator of either being mega stoned or you have the intelligence of dryer lint. it’s dumb for sure. But I mean he was kid. Kids are dumb. Could also have felt he needed it for inflammation/pain. A lot of ncaa kids smoke weed or cbd to try and avoid opioids.

That combined with questionable academics does leave room to wonder if he has a 40 watt brain and if he is capable of adapting to the CFL game. CBD doesn't get you baked and does have some therapeutic value.

But I think it’s also super easy to weed (lol) those guys out in a single conversation. Really interesting break down of the star recruit system and a bit of the positional scouting anomalies. It’s interesting to compare to how we scout and what attributes we prize at different positions as well.

Problem is many schools for pro days do max vert and list as vert instead of no step. Few things: Draft Scout is THE real reliable source for pro day numbers. They get it straight from NFL scouts. Anything posted anywhere else that is claiming different information is incorrect. Sometimes even the schools that post results on twitter will get it wrong because they use their own times but draft scout has the real info. Also, every single pro day vertical is run by NFL scouts and the players are not allowed to take a step or even wiggle their feet before the jump. They get two opportunities to jump from a standstill position and the best number of those two is marked down. Agree with you that vertical and broad jump, which are measures of lower body explosiveness, are more translatable to success in the trenches than 40-time!!!
April 11, 20241 yr comment_692874 That Valour dead weight is hurting the club. They have to find a way to break even, at the very least.

Last time I heard it called pot was 25 years ago and by people who have no clue. You’re quite ignorant on the subject it appears tho and pretty much don’t have a clue.
