Was hoping that Armanti Edwards would get a shot this week since he's been a full participant in most of the practices. DWalk and to a degree Ellingson have appeared to have checked out IMO. I'd be surprised if either one of them is back next season. Wouldn't mind seeing if Edwards would show any hunger in a game if given the chance.“RUN THE DANG BALL!" -Leigh Anne Tuohy character from the film The Blind Side
"Next time, take a case of Pil into the huddle. If you don't get a beer, get the hell off the field!" -New special teams coach for the Riders
"When the Eskimos are out on defense it looks like there are two or three number 47s out there." -Duane Ford

Hope, at the end of the day connects us all, no matter how different we are

Yeah. Armanti Edwards in would have been good to see. I was hoping another Edwards... Earnest would get another shot. He had a very exciting debut in limited action, but hasn't seen the field since his first game. That is a head scratcher, but I guess they gotta fill up receiver spots with Canadians.#PizStrong

That D line seems a bit undersized at DT.. Believe Rector is usually at DE. Wonder if Hammy tries to push us around early by running up the middle . See we are show casing Simmons at DE already, We certainly need more pass rush from our DE's and Costigan out also. Still, though , no Chris Casher in the lineup. Wonder what;s going on there as he was a good player with Calgary.

D Ends
Betts - 250
Boateq - 257
Simmons - 246
You do need speed at the ends so they probably aren't that bad but at the same time I do wonder if size plays a part in Betts. He has 8 tackles and ZERO sacks. That isn't good for a D End especially since he is a 3rd overall pick.
Rector - 270
Moore - 269
DeBaille - 285 - Global guy.
Like you said, that looks like a pretty small interior considering all the guys they will be going up against in the middle will probably be 300 or more. You have to be very strong to make up for the 30+ lbs difference.
Blindly accept whatever they do and if it doesn't work out, I guess there's always next year.

Been a few years since I attended a game in person. Lost interest in a poorly run organization. My 31 yr old son on the other hand has gone to quite a few as he is a big sports fan. He went to the last two home games. I asked him if he was going tonight. His answer was "Hell no, fool me once ......
The Elks will have a huge task to rebuild fan support and interest. I can't see that happening without a major house cleaning of upper management. It is quite disappointing how low this franchise as sunk.
