CFL.CA transactions shown adding him to PR. I've seen him play in UFL and he seems to be a good addition.

Ok! What will we call him.

I didn't see the replays, but somebody is responsible for stuffing the run. We were embarrassing in most of the games. We had a number of attempted tackles. That would be acceptable for an eight year old. Those so called linebackers and that one DB thrown in. Has that one LB , that halfback, and who drafted out. Safety.. a new LB? Gooo good let Kyrie rest?  Has the safety  made a pass knockdown. Let's move. Nichols to safety. 

Amd have they found any players than a dozen linebackers who are all stars...?? lol!

OShea is fixated on linebackers
 Why aren't we bringing in a safety or an onlineman or db of we dont think Texada is able to step in
 Maybe we are waiting on nfl cuts but were now in 4th place in the west with a good chance we will soon be last

That's a 1 for 1 on the PR but that "spot " was for a global player which Tezino is not. I won't be entirely surprised to see him on the AR this week replacing Hazen.

Hazen might have a future in the CFL but at least I've watched Tezino and he's a guy that's all over the field.

Have we ever put a new guy in first week?

I'm not sure but what do we have to lose replacing any player that doesn't seem to be used much? We're at a turning point IMO.

Linebackers are the pillar of strength for this club and while lots of folks like to rag on the club for the number we have, it will be a foundation piece as we rebuild.  If this exchange makes us better, it should slowly help this club down the line.  Hard for these players to get a good look.  We shall see how he looks in practice and if he can crack the AR, maybe by late season.
