Eh, for me, like to acquaint myself with the names and I buy a draft preview magazine in the spring to keep score of who is off the board and who is still left on it.
I bought a draft magazine once and was disappointed in the content. I paid $11. I said never again will I look at a draft magazine.
Thank you. I think you left off a few people but they are appreciated around here (for good reason) by many as well.
Don't misunderstand Alen, it is not content, it is the list of 300 plus players, as they are selected I check them off of the list. "We" have totally different ways of viewing the draft, I enjoy the late round diamonds in the rough and think the lower rounds are overrated, you on the other hand are very much more deeply into all of this. Not saying that is bad or anything, my only reason for disinterest is how heavily the lower round guys are hyped year after and year after year..busts..who cares if a 6th rd Te from Kansas busts? That is why I see those later round guys are free money ditto the plethora of street FA's UDFA's CFLers etc.
You can print that from online though Pads, the top 100 from Rich Gosselin is very effective as it is commonly regarded as a list leaked to him just before the draft from the cowboy organization.
Well, I have somewhat unique needs D22, and require the bottom of the draft class as much as some require the top 100. Wally B and Roy Shivers are very good at recruiting those guys for BC and I like to have the information on guys to use on my CFL Board as CFL fans in some ways are very very different from NFL fans, they just watch the guy play whether they heard of them or not.."Oh, tommie hill, okay.." OT but to me, Brady Quinn would make a great CFL qb imho, he has the right mix of arm and athleticism and the Notre Dame resume wouldn't hurt and his bane, inaccuracy, would not matter as much in the CFL..just sayin'.
There have been good QB's from ND in the CFL. Tom Clements was fabulous here and Joe Thiessman of course signed with the CFL instead of Miami. Did you see your guy Wally reupped? You can keep the avatar for another year!
Yep, Jarious Jackson as well, I do think Quinn is going nowhere fast in the NFL and probably won't go anywhere as he will not get to play much,if at all, wherever he lands and the only way to work out his issues is..to play. Catch 22 for him. Was going to keep it anyway D22 he is the winningest professional football coach that is still active. BC has more or less rebuilt the offence, he may stick around 4 more years as he has done the hard work to renew the 00's roster. anywho, the CFL fans I've run across are more or less product on the field oriented and not player acquisition oriented, the CFL Draft for example has nowhere near the buzz the NFL version does, and most coaches simply won't play rooks they just drafted on anything but the Specials. Which is odd as Shawn Gore spent an entire training camp in Green Bay and lasted until final cuts, but could not sniff the field for most of the season.
