I don't reall watch CIS football much especially the past few years but if all the stuff that I've been hearing about our draft picks are true, then Stamps will be in good shape. They drafted OL PIERRE LAVERTU from Laval, a lot was saying he is CFL ready which is good because we lost Tsoumpas, Deane and Gott from last season, DL QUINN SMITH supposed to be the Top 3 earlier but stock fell off due to banned substance product problem. I heard the guy can play both sides of the field and ready good with pass rush. This is also a good thing since Justin Phillips is no longer in Calgary, Ettiene Legare and Junior Turner was not a factor last season and to tough it off we lost our import pass rusher Cordarro Law. Corey Mace is a good Canadian DL but he's been injured a lot. So having Smith will help especially if the report on him are accurate. Stamps also drafted LB MAX CARON of Concordia, highly talented OL LAURENT DUVERNAY-TARDIF who would have been drafted first overall if he wasn't on the NFL radar. I actually like this gamble by Huff. I am not sure he will stay in the NFL longer but I could be wrong. Speedster DB ADAM THIBAULT of Laval I heard is good. Maybe he can replace Eric Fraser on safety. Western OL JOE CIRCELLI, Queens DL DEREK WIGGAN, McMaster K/P TYLER CRAPIGNA (i think he will stay in McMaster a year or more since Paredes and Maver will be in Stamps lineup next season and probably be another) and Western WR BRIAN MARSHALL.

I love how Huff stocked up the prospect pool with OL and DL but still pick up players from other positions even though we already stocked up with players in K/P, non-import WR and even non-import DB plus non-import LB as well.
