Quote from: theaardvark on April 27, 2026, 07:43:10 PMI really don't want Vant or Rand as 3rd IMP oline. They've had far to long to grab that spot, and haven't.

This is going to be a pivotal camp for the Oline, I'd love to get a guest coach in here... and you know who...

Randolph beat out Eric Lofton and Vanterpool for the RT job last season and started every game, but Broxton most likely owns that spot now.

Meh, Parker had multiple opportunities to own a position and failed to do so, they've seen his best and it didn't qualify.

Quote from: Jesse on April 27, 2026, 04:10:13 PMWe just waited a year for Elgersma and he's Canadian. I don't think anyone expects him to come to mini-camp this season.

Why not?  He's a rookie and probably has nothing better to do, the sooner he gets with the program the better.

Quote from: Pete on April 27, 2026, 11:22:50 PMParker was released because he wasn't good enough as was Bridges, I was surprised bc signed either one. But doesn't it seem like BC more than any other team will sign players knowing that they are more and likely gonna not keep them as soon as someone that might be better comes along.
Sucks that they waited til now to do so.

If Parker left because of wanting more money, does this create an opportunity for him to return? If would we be interested? I'm not sure, we don't know the exact reason for allowing him to go to free agency. It could have been money or just the desire to move on by the team.

Quote from: theaardvark on April 27, 2026, 07:40:25 PMUDFA deals are spec at best, unless there is actual money included.  Any idea if any of the top guys got money in their UDFA deals?

I'd be surprised if there was any money involved and no guarantees.

Quote from: Throw Long Bannatyne on April 27, 2026, 08:59:45 PMExactly, it's more likely an accident than intentional.  Clearly the amount Doman exceeded the cap in 2024 was intentional.

Yes but you don't often get 2 starting Canadians returning from the NFL including a top salary QB and a DE.

Quote from: JockitchwithRich on April 27, 2026, 01:32:32 PMJays need to shut down the Red Sox, who now replaced their Mgr., and have won two straight. Another series win would most definitely help the Jays keep their heads high

As a team, the Jays have a low whiff rate but Okamoto is an awful exception to that

Yes, Oko has had trouble with the whiffs. But, he is starting to catch up with the fastball. Hitting much better of late.
