May 13, 201411 yr comment_50134 penton tweeted that bc really wants to move up to #2 and is wondering if walters will give buono want he wants. # 2 for #5 and #14 or keep #2. I know they love the guy and nobody wants to give up a roster player, but if I'm Walters, I'm hardballing Buono. I don't want two picks for the #2, I want #5 and a guy like Haidara. oh i agree, 2 picks isn't enough. I was thinking like #5 and westerman. But haidara works too.
May 13, 201411 yr comment_50135 Hopefully they have more than one team interested in the 2nd pick. Who does BC want? Foucault? They don't need Goossen.

They don't need Goossen. read somewhere that several teams are interested in goosen, not just as a centre though. He is apparently quite versatile and can play guard also so really teams need these types of players, i think they probably want goosen maybe not as a centre though.

May 13, 201411 yr comment_50147 I would take Goossen as a guard and play him in Week 1. Lions could roll out Olafioye-Goossen-Norman-Fabien-Steward

I'd rather have Haidara to be honest.
May 13, 201411 yr comment_50156 Trading for Westerman without a contract could be quite detrimental in February. That could be argued it is more of a gamble than selecting a prospect.

May 13, 201411 yr comment_50161 There are almost always surprises on draft days- trades, swaps of draft positions and dark horses emerging. This year promises to be one of those times.
May 13, 201411 yr comment_50218 I want a starter out of our first pick badly. Trading down definitely intrigues me though.
May 13, 201411 yr comment_50223 Trading down doesn't intrigue me. I 'd be happy with Lavertu or Goosen as we NEED a center and the idea of converting Morley doesn't thrill me at all.

Morley has always been barely good enough and would not be a starter on most other teams. If we can trade him for value, great. He won't be missed very much.
May 13, 201411 yr comment_50226 My question is this. If BC believes they need Goosen? Wouldn't we need him more?
May 13, 201411 yr comment_50227 I hope we keep our pick. We need to upgrade our Canadian base. If we can get a pick & a NI player we would be. I like Mike's idea of #5 & Haidara. We would need something that good to make it worthwhile.
May 13, 201411 yr comment_50229 My question is this. If BC believes they need Goosen? Wouldn't we need him more? The Lions would be putting him at guard, I would think with Norman at C... Bombers have the more pressing need at C.
May 13, 201411 yr comment_50235 To me, the only team drafting Goossen to play C is the Bombers and mayyyyyyyyyybe Edmonton. Everyone else would be taking him at G. Edmonton signed Sorensen, but could still challenge him. Montreal just lost Flory, and their depth at guard is quite shallow. Plus LBJ is a rock. BC has Matt Norman at C, who they drafted in 2012. Toronto, Calgary, Sask and Hamilton I don't see actively pursuing him unless he dropped to them.
May 13, 201411 yr comment_50243 So is it basically a certainty that Ottawa is taking Lavertu? Pretty good odds they do ..
May 13, 201411 yr comment_50248 So is it basically a certainty that Ottawa is taking Lavertu? If Foucault didn't get the rookie camp offer, I'd say he is going #1... I still think they're fine at C with Krausnick, so I wouldn't be surprised if they still took the risk.
May 13, 201411 yr comment_50249 @BobIrvingCJOB: Bombers will draft lavertu or Goossen. Take it to the bank.
May 13, 201411 yr Author comment_50251 @BobIrvingCJOB: Bombers will draft lavertu or Goossen. Take it to the bank. Looks like you're going to end up being right. I'll give you credit for calling it as early as you did.
May 13, 201411 yr comment_50254 Must not have received any appealing offers I suppose. or they did and just decided that we need the guy more.
