Declan Cross has made me believe he is a very good CFL H-back (good hands and bruising runner with some quicks or moves - like his college ball tailback experience would have suggested) who can make plays in the offence - since he has been used (i.e. given chances) this season, and after a couple of glaring drops last season that did not look good.
If memory serves, you were one of the posters on here suggesting Cross was not a player around this time last year. Maybe I'm wrong about that -- there was definitely more than one poster who ripped him on the basis of one or two dropped passes. Ironically, I came to his defence at the time. And for the record, I think Ralph has good potential. But to think he might already be what Coombs took three years to develop into seems overly optimistic.
