Throw Long Bannatyne

Quote from: Tecno on October 21, 2025, 09:17:02 AMHaha, DTG and that challenge you guys!  What a DB.  TOR & Herslow has nothing to live for and you take away a nice SC highlight play that all of Canada can enjoy?  Let the kid have his moment of glory.

P.S. Herslow is the next Ellingson (in his prime) -- do whatever it takes to get him!  What a scouting find.  Super hands, smart kid, super athletic, good accel, good speed, great hurdling.  What's not to love?


There are a bunch of these smart receivers in the league like Schoen, guys without blazing speed have to know the playbook and become reliable targets to compete.  If Zach is back next season hope to see them go after some of the following if available.

Jake Herslow
Joe Robustelli
Tommy Nield
Tyler Snead
Ayden Eberhardt
Clark Barnes
Mitchell Picton (sleeper)
Drew Wolitarsky

Mitchell, Wheatfall probably gone, don't know if they'll keep Clercius or not, he has the athletic ability but does not mesh with Zach often enough.

Herslow and Robustelli and Snead had real breakout seasons, not sure what their contract status is, but teams will come courting these guys.

Als wisely re-upped Snead a month ago for 2 years, a few are rookies but any of the 3 from Sask. could be cut after TC next season.

I play fantasy religiously, so I have a fair understanding of how productive the sneaky "cheaper" RECs are.

Robustelli had a hot start but has been really dead for the last third of the season.

Snead seems to be a keeper.  I'd say the best of the bunch after Herslow.

Eberhardt looks good but doesn't see much action.  Very hit & miss and doesn't always haul them in.

Imagine Herslow on a good team with a good QB!  He's lighting it up on a garbage team that never had a QB.
Never go full Johnston!
