2023-24 off-season transactions

Argos sure are loaded up at LB - Malik Clements added - he flashed some talent there for the Bombers.

I wonder if the Argos might think of switching McManis to MLB or is he more valuable /suited for W-OLB?; or are Jones or maybe Cassar going to be in the running for starting MLB ?

With the talent and skillsets on the defensive line, you wonder if the Argos will go with a 3-4 look at times this season. As a three man line, just imagine Ceresna, Brinkman and Oakman with four roving backers. In that scenario, I wonder if McManis could play as a rush end with Jones being so versatile. I'll guess we'll see who the new DC will be and their philosophy.

yeah - a possibility - Brinkman might be strong at nose tackle in a 3-4; but that notion has been floated before when looking at teams with a lot of LB talent, but we have not seen much 3-4 looks from CFL defences - seems to me - in some time.

We'll have to see what the new DC's philosophy is, but I personally doubt we would use a 3-4 look given that we are pretty deep on the D-line even after the losses of Hendrix, Barlow and Costigan.
