    Ok, but Dublanko is not going to start between McManis & Jones, cause who is going to play S-OLB (unless McManis could play there) ?

    I'd bet heavily that Dublanko is gone by the time the Argos pick at #5 anyhow. The Argos already have 2 experienced MLB types in Jones & Cassar (but i bet they would take Dublanko anyways at # 5).

    Meanwhile, the Argo only have one Canadian tailback type in Adeboboye (impressive young back - maybe ready for more work) - so what happens if he gets knocked out with injury? There are 3 impressive RB types this draft IMO (Peterson, Herzog & Ike) - like to see one of them drafted and likely one will still be available by the time the Argos have those 3 middle (20 something) picks?

    Back to the first rounder - the best D-lineman makes most sense IMO. But sense and the CFL draft do not always mix.

    Grant makes a tangible argument for the Argos to select a LB, I trust the Argos brain trust will make a good selection with this pick considering their recent draft success.

    Ok; just making some draft / Argo roster observations. We could just defer here to what Ben says though.

    I have no issue deferring to the likes of Ben Grant and Marshall Ferguson as I don’t really follow college football very closely.
