January 14, 201510 yr comment_103261 Depends if we can land a stud like Heenan or Holmes in free agency. That would of course reduce our need to draft an OL with the second pick.
January 14, 201510 yr comment_103272 Durant looks like a pretty crazy talent... any projections for him to get drafted in the NFL?
January 14, 201510 yr comment_103275 Depends if we can land a stud like Heenan or Holmes in free agency. That would of course reduce our need to draft an OL with the second pick. Even then, Waud/Durant might be worth making a deal. It's all hypothetical anyways, unless these guys project extremely highly there's no need to deviate from whatever the current plan is, and whatever the current evaluations are for these players, they will not likely change at all until Ecamp (outside of Waud's upcoming game). And if there's 2 guys we feel we absolutely must have, we still have to find a dance partner for a trade and hope the second guy is still on the board for us to take. Can't plan for any of this in January, but we can be open to the idea.
January 14, 201510 yr comment_103280 Durant looks like a pretty crazy talent... any projections for him to get drafted in the NFL? Based just on percentages, it seems very unlikely. About 30 WR taken per draft. Simon Fraser is very low profile by NCAA standards. On average about 1 or 2 low-profile school receivers get taken per year. The chances it's him are not favourable. But his agent could get him a free agent tryout. Odds of that happening have to be a lot higher than him getting drafted.
January 15, 201510 yr comment_103361 I think by the time Watson gets injured, Durant will be ready to be a starter. Not sure who I want the Bombers to pick now... There's a lot of good ones this draft
January 15, 201510 yr comment_103418 Saw a tweet that suggests Waud may be drafted in the NFL draft saw it too, Believe it said as high as the 5th round even.
January 16, 201510 yr comment_103619 Durant it is? Or Groux 2nd overall and maybe Demski will fall to 11
January 24, 201510 yr comment_104549 Saw a tweet that suggests Waud may be drafted in the NFL draft saw it too, Believe it said as high as the 5th round even. Waud for sure has NFL potential as a 5-tech DE. As a CFL prospect, I actually think he may have a better future as an offensive tackle. He has the height and arm length for it.
January 24, 201510 yr comment_104550 Waud's gonna be a pretty good DT in this league... no need to switch him to the other side
January 24, 201510 yr comment_104552 Durant it is? Or Groux 2nd overall and maybe Demski will fall to 11 This would be my dream draft at this point, Groulx & Demski (or Richards if Demski is gone).
January 24, 201510 yr comment_104554 It might be wise to stay away from Varga for the first 3 rounds http://www.tsn.ca/tsn-ca-cfl-draft-profile-tyler-varga-1.187433
January 24, 201510 yr comment_104555 I certainly wouldnt be opposed to taking Ackie in the second round... This guy is going to be a legit Starting CFL defender one year http://www.tsn.ca/tsn-ca-cfl-draft-profile-chris-ackie-1.184229
January 24, 201510 yr comment_104560 Ackie looks very interesting, At 6'1" and 210 he is still fast enough to play DB with room to put on a few more pounds. His tackling looks to need a bit of work, but he is not afraid to hit. He ought to make a helluva free safety or even an outside linebacker with some seasoning.
January 24, 201510 yr comment_104563 I think he projects to be a very good starter at WLB in a year or two.
January 24, 201510 yr comment_104564 Hypothetical, But I can see BC offering us their first and second rounders for #2 overall to get a guy like Varga or Durant if there's no NFL interest... anyone here bite on that deal?
January 24, 201510 yr comment_104576 Hypothetical, But I can see BC offering us their first and second rounders for #2 overall to get a guy like Varga or Durant if there's no NFL interest... anyone here bite on that deal? #2 for #4 and #13? I would.

January 24, 201510 yr comment_104589 Make sure you're watching today's Senior Bowl. Tyler Varga is competing against some of the best NCAA talent. Currently at 2 carries for 11 yards.
January 31, 201510 yr comment_105614 @ArashMadani: The Journal de Montreal reports Byron Archambault, the terrific Carabins LB, will take part in the NFL regional combine in Denver on Feb. 21
January 31, 201510 yr comment_105647 Looking at the rankings and just throwing stuff at the wall, is it possible we take Durant at #2 and OT Ruby at #11?
January 31, 201510 yr comment_105648 Looking at the rankings and just throwing stuff at the wall, is it possible we take Durant at #2 and OT Ruby at #11? That would be awesome, but risk is if you take Durant at 2 there's no guarantee the OL Walters wants is there at 11.
January 31, 201510 yr comment_105649 Walters said this week that he thinks there is going to be a run on Oline guys in first round. Said mostly due to fact that the last few drafts have been really weak Oline drafts teams will be looking to stock up. As a result there will be a few really talent skill position guys that will fall.
January 31, 201510 yr comment_105650 With both Heenan and Holmes off the table to all practical intents, and our desperate need for O-linemen, I can't see Walters looking past a O-line potential starter in the first round.
