I love the trade up. Go get your guys.

None of us have ever heard these names before in our lives, and we're saying this guy would have been available later? Whatever guys.
My wife is amazing!

3rd round pick BOULIANE, Charles-Elliot Of course we need another lb to not play meaningful reps
OJUTALAYO, Jesulayomi wr  or CROMWELL, Devynn db would have been better

Slow, unathletic TEs generally arent coveted in the CFL. I dont need to know his name to know that even highly touted TEs rarely make an impact in today's game.
GO BLUE!

TEs don't make any impact in the CFL game, they don't exist. Which is why this is likely an OL pick. We're probably thinking about rocking plenty of 6 and 7 man fronts.

More than likely a FB. Not only is he slow, hes not strong. Realistically I think its more FB/true TE. Like I said, field is changing. Bigger bodies will be needed. We've seen them throw to the "TE" Eli in that jumbo package.
GO BLUE!

I'm certainly not qualified to assess what the team is doing with their drafts. That said there seemed to be more obvious areas of needs with a few picks. Picking another LB looked like the biggest reach.

It's going to take awhile to figure out which players might get bumped from the roster.

We did hear good things about Cline and Gatkouth in mock drafts and general conversations. It may result in a wait for a bit but that isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Ethan stuart at pick 33 is a decent pick we need dbs

6' @ 223 lbs? If that's right he sounds like another LB!!! Woodbey is our only DB that weights more.

At this point it's ST and PR players.

Stuart at Safety backing up Kramdi would be nice.

a bonus as far as oshea goes. but he does have 4.63 40 speed and is quick, as bigblue says sounds like a safety

This where we could have taken another player that is currently under an UDFA. Reese for example.
