Throw Long Bannatyne

Quote from: Pete on July 02, 2026, 05:06:58 PMThe frustrating thing is that we don't bring in anyone to help with our issues other than recycle previous cuts. our national offensive line depth is awful with our wr depth not far behind, and we can't seem to find a national db who can tackle and cover.
Ive always liked Walters but this year the gaps have been massive. Dru is a nice add but we way overpaid.


Business as usual going on 10 seasons, they pick their guys in the spring and stick with them. Late fall they begin evaluating for the next season.

That's not 100% fair.  We have brought in some good talent over the years.  Yes we have valued a lot of our vets.  It brought up much success for a long time.  We also found success in the draft, FA and in camp.  Yes we need more depth for Cdn OL.  Our depth at receiver is reasonable imo.  Not ideal.  We have some Canadians on D that are young and still developing.  Walters have done more good than bad.  Dru was a reasonable deal based on what we got in return.  Good QBs don't grow on trees.  We might need Dru this year if Zach gets hurt.  At that point he would be worth 2x what we paid.  If we don't need him this year, it's a fair deal for both parties.  It's a good insurance policy.  We now have some of the best depth at QB in the league.  Last year was the worst maybe?

Business as usual, nothing but cups and cup appearances.  Agree we sniff hard in the fall.  Sometimes find gems then for the next year.
