Ahh who knows, I'm looking at it as a positional solution and not delving that deep, ratio flips could occur at LB or receiver. There are many ways to skin a cat.

Unfortunately it's part of the equation. Number of imports are limited regardless of how many Canadians are starters.

If they do that, which import will they need to remove from the roster? Even if they go 3 import OL, Vanterpool has no experience at center.

Here are the current rostered Oline Rookies and where they played in college:

57 DOOLEY, Ben      6'5   320   24   Boise State    LG
64 ELSBURY, Tyler   6'6   333   24   Iowa   Played OC/all positions
0 LINDSAY, Zovon   6'4   300   25   Coastal Carolina  RT
0 MORE, Joseph      6'5   311   26   Arkansas  RT
0 PARES, Sebastian   6'6   310   24   Eastern Illinois RG
58 PONCIUS, Hunter   6'8   318   24   North Dakota State OT OG
0 WILLIAMS, Bucky   6'3   300   25   Appalachian Stat  OC

So, it looks like there is one true OC (Williams) and one that has played OC (Elsbury), so there might be something to KMan's release and potential for 2 IMP Oline

Pretty sure they intend to move to 3 Import O-line this season, my best guess is 2 OT's and a Center, with Neuf and Wallace filling the Guard spots.

Are any of the Imports coming to camp OC's?  They all look like OT's to me...

Argos leave Darius Ciraco and Derek Parish to the wolves.

Vanterpool has only played 6 games. If he was the future at LT then I don't think they would have signed Bryant. Vanterpool might not accept a bump back to the PR so it's possible he doesn't survive TC.

Randolph played fairly well but I don't think he's a lock depending on who is available at free agency.

We need at least two receivers and everyone has something in the negative column.

Age, health and upside should be taken into consideration, gamble on a receiver or two that haven't peaked yet or received elite receiver pay of $200k+.  Maybe they become elite receivers, maybe they plateau, but keep Sterns and Wheatfall around on a budget just in case they don't work out.

Everyone gets beat, some forget about how steady Stan is, for everytime he get beat, he has many times unnoticed solid protection.  Yes prime Stan needed double team to get beat but he still can hold his own, for a guy his age, will go down as one of best and longest serving OL ever.  It's kinds like Bouch in Edm, nobody forgets his mistakes but how about that hatty and three apples
