New season brings new optimism?
He struggled as a CFL rookie. He has returned kicks in both the NFL and with Hamilton, so maybe the Argos are looking at him as a back up DB, but moreso for kick returns.
If Chris Jones isn't interested in him, I don't think so.
Eden is a big hitter. In the 80's when a safety basically just played centre field and went to the ball he would have been a star. Today, they are asked to cover a lot more with expanded blitz...
lmfao!!! And how long did Jamie Stoddard stay on as a starter in Winnipeg, despite the fact that he couldn't get open if his life depended on it?
Looked good early on, but like many others not so good when the team went south following a BS roughing the passer call in Winnipeg. Not that I'm bitter.
:D
Sorry to see Kilgore released, but I figured as much after speaking with Popp last week. He really seemed to like what Fajardo has to offer.
DB Harris, a 2nd round pick. Might be someone to look...
Good thing they likely didn't make any Gurley and Elliott jerseys.
:)
My guess is that they probably just had too many Foley jerseys made up, and are trying to clear the overstocked item.
LMFAO. I'm glad you said that because as we know, it may have sounded a little different coming from me.
200 lbs, is not small for a 5'7" frame. Mike Pringle was considered a power back at 5'9 and 202.
I'm guessing the only reason Whitaker was not offered a contract was that he will turn 32 during the season. He had a very good season last year, but they may have determined they want to go in a...
Article on 3down nation from the Calgary Herald speculates the fact that Tate is so happy to be a back-up may show a lack of drive to be anything more. I can't say I disagree. If he wanted to really...
Sounds like Harris is gambling on having his first post September success. I don't blame him. What good is an extension? If he struggles, he gets released and if he shows himself to be the real deal...
Not going to defend the trade for Willy (it was an obvious desperation move for a team that was hosting the Grey Cup), but in all honesty, different expectations. Tate is brought in to be a back up....
Nowhere did I ever question his talent. You do realize that he was with 8 different organizations in the NFL and now is in his 2nd in the CFL, right? I get that you have a personal relationship with...
You're kidding, right? This stuff is taught from pop warner all the way through college ball. If you're a pro and you don't block, it's because you have no desire to do so. You also make it sound...
Will he block on hitch screens this time? My biggest frustration with the "big 3" was that for their size, they were brutal at downfield blocking. Ottawa mastered the hitch screen last year because...
Don't think it's any different than not offering a contract for a 2nd season. Same optics.
Term of the deal means nothing. I do agree that $$$ need to be similar though.
Not with the good ones. Let's hope we've found some good ones.
I don't think they'll have any ratio problems either OV. They have some talent at skill positions. That's why I think they can afford to start 2 Internationals at tackle...of course this all depends...
If I was making the decisions, with Jones all but guaranteed a starting SB position, I would sign a number of International tackles, and hope you can find 2 good bookends to start at tackles. They...
I really hope they move CVZ to right guard.
There are a lot of coaches with experience in the league that are currently not under contract anywhere. It doesn't have to be someone that is currently tied to another team.
Because you've...
