And yet to this day Riders forum moans and whines that Demski was too slow and did too much dancing when wearing green.  Riders happily cut him and there was much rejoicing.  We didn't even have to offer him much to get him here.  I bet he was $25k-$35k over ELC when he first signed here.

Valid point about the draft level (I didn't know Demski was 1RDP) though.  However, Demski could have easily turned into an Etienne.  Draft level doesn't always mean everything (though Corcoran's is particularly low).
Never go full Johnston!

Quote from: BIGBLUE204 on May 22, 2026, 02:53:18 PMDemski's rookie season saw double the yardage on 3 more receptions, (his longest reception as a rookie comes up just 16 yards short of Corcorans entire year). Demski had 4 yards more per catch and 30 rushing yards. Plus the Punt returning and TD.

Again, per capita.  Demski was in nearly every rookie year game and seeing actual snaps, and was basically a full-time starter in year 2.

Ya, I'm not saying Corcoran is the next Demski, but it certainly is possible he can be more than what he showed in '25.  I never put artificial ceilings on guys who are that young.  Wait and see.  All I know is I saw his hands snag some Lawler-level quick/outside balls that for sure 80% of the other 5th-read CFL NATs would have whiffed on.  Ya, that's some talent you can possibly work with.

He's listed at the same size as Rasheed Bailey

Ya, I checked the stats.  I don't know why, but he seems like a small presence on the field to me.  Maybe you guys are right and it's just because he's slotted next to Clercius he seems small.
