June 20, 201411 yr comment_58802     How many import rookies started our first game last season? Dunn is the only one I can think of. Who were the guys people were excited about coming out of camp last year? I'm not trying to prove any point about our scouting, I just honestly can't remember. I can't imagine there was much excitement about what we saw in either preseason game. That's a good point actually. Dunn was one for sure, Was zach anderson another? Outside of those 2 guys though, I don't think there was anyone else and Anderson might not have even started the first game. Markett? nah, he didn't start.   Desia Dunn (who admittedly, I wasn't excited about at all) and Zach Anderson right off the bat. Then there was Markett and Wallace Miles was a promising receiver as well (although he was here right at the end of 2012)  Hows miles doing out in ottawa? is he gonna make the team or is he a guy that we could possibly pick up?   He had 4 catches for 44 yards last week. Most receptions on the team.  That's good to hear, glad he is doing well. Really thought he looked good when he got his shot last season, made some plays. The guys going to be a pretty good receiver in this league i think.Â
June 20, 201411 yr comment_58803 Ottawa's talent at receiver, regardless of nationality, is far and away the worst in the league  Not only don't they look good…but they don't look good    And now……. Â
June 20, 201411 yr Author comment_58805 Ottawa's starting receivers against Montreal tonight are Dobson Collins, Marcus Henry, Kierrie Johnson, Paris Jackson, and Matt Carter. Good luck with that group.  I literally don't think you could handpick a more mediocre group.
June 20, 201411 yr comment_58806 http://cfl.uploads.mrx.ca/wpg/pdf/depth/2013/Depth062837.pdf  Our roster from start of last year...  Upgrades:  CB, S, QB, OL, SB  Downgrades:  Looking like entire LB core unless Wild starts at OLB, WR  Everything else is about unknown or even... Vega is better than Mainor, Peach is worse than Hall, etc...

Should we be interested to get him back if he is cut loose?
June 20, 201411 yr comment_58808 That's not the same paris jackson from BC is it? That guys gotta  be like 50 years old, he's been around forever and last time he did something relevant was probably 5 years ago.Â
June 20, 201411 yr comment_58809 The flashiest part of the Ottawa receiving corps is Aaron Hargreaves'Â red shoes.
June 20, 201411 yr comment_58814 I actually think they have done a good job of balancing experience and youth on this team. Fielding a team with too many rookies has and never will work, guys like Banks and Peach just balance the scales.
June 20, 201411 yr comment_58819 Are we expecting too much in one off-season? Â No, just expecting to see more quality players. Â Too many easy cuts IMO.
June 20, 201411 yr comment_58820 Are we expecting too much in one off-season? personally just want to see a team who won't give up and are competitive. Baby steps i guess is what you can call it.Â
June 20, 201411 yr comment_58822 So what does your depth chart look like at this moment in time?   QB... WILLY, Brohm, Marve  OL... JANUARY, GREAVES, MORLEY, NEUFELD, KNAPP, Goossen REC.. KELLY, MOORE, WATSON, DENMARK, KOHLERT, Feoli-Gudino, Carter, Woods RB... GRIGSBY, Volny, Pontbriand, Fitzgerald  DL... VEGA, TURNER, THOMAS, PEACH, Anderson, Richardson LB... BANKS, KUALE, DUNN, Sherman, Wild, Stephan, Cornell DB... RANDLE, WASHINGTON, LEGGETT, SUBER, ALEXANDER, Markett,  Bucknor, Jones  ST... Hajrullahu, Renaud   I can also see us field Everettt as Backup OL/DL in place of an Nat'l LB or CB. Bucknor can also start ahead of Alexander. Knapp can be RG and Neufeld at RT.  Not a bad line-up actually, and only 2 - Willy and Leggett - rookie starter in the mix. The soft spot I can see is the LB and RB units.
June 20, 201411 yr comment_58825 Interesting how some think that Wallace Miles is necessarily better than anyone we have now. Â in 2012 he had 5 catches for 35 yards in 2013 he had 11 catches for 158 yards and one TD Â Pretty small sampling I would say...

The soft spot I can see is the LB and RB units.  Just out of those rostered names I can count 18 guys who are Walters additions. Plus Everett, Cotton, probably a couple others that I won't waste time looking up. Stuff has happened.  Also, having watched the presser video now, OShea does say that some of the 11 cut may be invited on the PR.

Going to have to force myself to watch it again, it hurt the first time maybe it won't be so bad this timeÂ

June 20, 201411 yr comment_58833 Halfway thru, around the 6 minute mark or so, from what I recall.  No, it will still be painful to watch. OShea handles the media about as well as possible.  "What keeps you up at night?" Coffee?

How well does he knows the playbook? I picked Dunn based on the fact that he is the starter on that spot for 2 pre-season game.
