Juwan Simpson is one of the guest coach for the Stamps. Looks like he still wants to play in the CFL but still wants to get paid properly. There are a lot of new faces in this coming training camp and from what I am hearing they have a lot of good competitions. Edwin Harrison is also a guest coach.
QB: I don't see much changes in this position. BLM, Tate and Not sure if anyone can unseat Monitz as a 3rd stringer. I am hoping the Stamps give Andrew Buckley plenty of chance. and also help him develop to be a good CFL QB. We need to start getting some legitimate Canadian QB in the CFL. Brandon Bridges did alright in Montreal last season and I am rooting that he makes it again this season.
RB: Jerome Messam will perhaps start and Tony Harrison will be his tandem unless one of the talented new RB can unseat him. I heard there are a couple of new RB that will fight for punt/kick returner job. Rob Cote will still be the FB for sure.
Receivers: We lost Wideout Eric Rogers and Jeff Fuller. Who will replace them? Plenty of opportunities for new guys. Canadian receiving position is wide open also.
OLine: I don't think the Stamps will employ two import OLine this season. They might have just one or none at all. Wilson, Federkeil, Bergman, Lavertu will definitely in the mix. Lots of opportunities to the new guys.
DLine: Good competition on the DEnd position opposite the Sack Master Hughes. Maybe Stamps will find the next Cordarro Law, Shawn Lemon type of DEnd.
LB: Is Taylor Reed good enough to be the middle linebacker or they will move Deron Mayo in that position. Stamps also neede a SAM LB to replace Keon Raymond. We will definitely miss Simpson and Raymond this season.
DB: I think Smith, Wall, Burnett, Bell are pretty safe. Hopefully one of the Canadian DB can play in safety position, a position being occupied by an import Josh Bell.
Kicker/Punter: I think Paredes and Maver are pretty safe. It doesn't look like they are bringing competition in these two psitions.
Long Snapper: Chevrier is gone. It is going to be St. Pierre vs Caron.
Returner: This is the position that we desperately needed especially the punt return. We need an explosive punt returner like Banks, Chris Williams and Owens who are threat everytime they touch the ball on a punt teturn.
