    Excellent !

    Love to see that D-line come back and play a full season together & stay healthy. Laing & Wynn at DT (with Finley or Gaydosh as capable rotation guys), and Lemon & Butler at DE is league best calibre IMO; just like to see another DE emerge as a rotation guy to help there - IMO the 2 DEs were not often full force all game long and most CFL teams now seem to go with plenty of rotation on their D-lines - keeps guys fresh/gives a different look to the O-line. Disappointing, IMO, that the Argos 2nd draft pick last year - Evan Foster - did not emerge for at least some playing time at DE - maybe he wasn't ready and could be now after some good ole "seasoning"? Meanwhile - 5th rounder DE Kwaku Boateng was an instant impact player for the Esks when he got a shot to play.

    I think both Tuggle and Davis were quite good filling in for Lemon and Butler.
    It's us vs the rest of the country

    Tuggle in particular made an impact as the season wore on. Davis's play tailed off a bit IMO (maybe because he played too many snaps with the injuries to Butler and Lemon), but he was decent and will probably be better (as many guys are) in Year 2.
