Different general manager, different fortunes for the Edmonton Eskimos in the CFL draft?

Under Ed Hervey, the club failed to see<a href="http://www.coltsshopauthentic.com/shop-by-players-10-donte-moncrief-jersey-c-1_3.html">Donte Moncrief Authentic Jersey</a>  a single Canadian draft pick develop into a starting role during his four years of calling the shots around Commonwealth Stadium.

Part of that had to do with rolling the dice on futures prospects – up-and-coming Canadians who sparked interest in the NFL looking to exhaust any and all opportunities before eventually coming northward, if they ever do – including Stefan Charles, Tevaun Smith and Arjen Colquhoun.

While it can sometimes be worth risking early draft picks for the chance at having some tantalizing talent land on your doorstep somewhere down the line, none of Edmonton’s recent gambles have yet to step foot in the CFL.

But that’s not to say new Eskimos GM Brock Sunderland is opposed to considering futures

“I’m a value guy, so it depends on where they’re at and what round they’re in and how high they go,” said the former Ottawa RedBlacks assistant GM, who’s only been sitting in the big chair in Edmonton since April 25. “If they’re<a href="http://www.officialchargesshop.com/shop-by-players-drew-kaser-jersey-c-1_21.html">Drew Kaser Youth Jersey</a>  going to be a first-round, sure-fire pick then I’ll probably lay back a little bit.

“It also depends on where the organization is and this organization’s very stable so it can be a little more patient.”

At the same time, the Eskimos have some more immediate roster matters to tend to.

This draft will be an interesting on for Edmonton, who holds the fifth-overall pick as the first of eight selections. Not only because of the change in GM, but also because the team has geared up to switch how their Canadian ratio works on defence after getting rid of a Canadian defensive tackle spot previously patrolled by Eddie Steele and Don Oramasionwu.

Instead, there will be another American on the interior of the defensive line next to perennial all-star Almondo Sewell, while they brought in Canadian and former NFLer Cory Greenwood in free agency to take over the WIL linebacker spot where NFL-bound Deon Lacey, and Dexter McCoil before him, had shone.

So it wouldn’t be surprising to see them try to bolster their depth there a little sooner in the draft than the typical special-teams linebacking fodder<a href="http://www.officialvikingshop.com/shop-by-players-customized-jersey-c-2_57.html">http://www.officialvikingshop.com/shop-by-players-customized-jersey-c-2_57.html</a>  necessary to fill ratio requirements.

The sudden retirement of starting Canadian wide-out Nate Coehoorn last month had to throw a wrench into their plans for the receiving corps, which also saw the re-addition of Shamawd Chambers while Devon Bailey left to join the Montreal Alouettes as a free agent.

This is the same Eskimos club that chose to go with future prospects with their first two picks a year ago, which also included a rare occurrence where they didn’t draft an offensive lineman. While they reported at the time they were happy with their O-line depth, it certainly doesn’t hurt having a hungry youngster come in to push the established heavies.

ZERO TO 18

Chris Morris has been around long enough that he doesn’t need a crystal ball to make a pigskin prediction.

The head coach of the University of Alberta Golden Bears football program wasn’t too heartbroken that none of his players heard their name called in last year’s draft.

After all, the Bears have contributed current Eskimos offensive linemen Simeon Rottier (first overall, 2009) and David Beard (16th overall, 2015) via the draft, as well as former Eskimos centre Gord Hinse (11th overall, 2009).

While the program has seen its share of ups and downs over the past four seasons under Morris, no more can the individual talent that has been developing along the way be denied.

“As the next few years go by, we’re going to have quite a few kids drafted out of our program,” Morris, himself a first-round draft <a href="http://www.officialvikingssale.com/shop-by-players-scott-crichton-jersey-c-2_51.html">http://www.officialvikingssale.com/shop-by-players-scott-crichton-jersey-c-2_51.html</a> pick (eighth overall) of the Eskimos in 1992, said ahead of last year’s CFL draft.

Fast-forward to the 2017 edition on Sunday and there are 18 Bears up for grabs, compared to none even making a blip on the radar a year ago.

Saracens will be appearing in their sixth major final in the past four seasons when they battle Clermont Auvergne for the European Champions Cup in http://www.officialmarinershop.com/Luis_Sardinas_Jersey Edinburgh on Saturday, experience their Lions second row George Kruis says they need to exploit. The Premiership and European champions are aiming to make it seven by reaching the Premiership final for the fourth consecutive campaign, but first they are aiming to emulate Leicester, the only other English club to retain the European Cup. “We have a group of players who have been together a long time, who are very experienced and who know what a final week looks like,” says the England second row Kruis. “We know the pressures of it, our roles and that it is a bit different. It does not give us the right for anything, but it means we know where we are at and that we have to turn up to deliver. Thomas Young hat-trick helps Nelson Cruz Authentic Jersey Wasps beat Saracens to gain home semi-final Read more “There is not the mentality that this match is more important than any other and we will get our confidence from the preparation in the week. I think it would be more special than last year if we win the tournament because we will have done it again, but we have got the game to come.” Kruis is one of six Saracens who will be in New Zealand this summer with the Lions. “It gives us confidence, but as players we are no different to what we were before the squad was announced and we have not achieved anything more. It is good for the group, but all that matters is the final. “I am enjoying my rugby after spending a long time out injured this season. I knew I would return before the Lions named the squad and that I would have six or seven games of high intensity before the tour to get fit and sharp. As a group, we are buzzing about what is coming up in the next few weeks. We train hard for the games that are coming up and aspire to Cory Spangenberg Womens Jersey at the top.” Saracens and Munster serve up feisty tie to keep Warren Gatland on edge Read more If Saracens win, they will set a tournament record of 18 matches without defeat in the Champions Cup. Clermont were the last team to overcome them, in the 2015 semi-final, and their France and former Leicester hooker Benjamin Kayser believes they are equipped for a repeat result. “Saracens might have the best defence in Europe, but we can be the best attack,” says Kayser. “Let us see who wins. Saracens were a bit disappointing in the Champions Cup after winning in Toulon in the opening round, but they showed they were back in the semi-final against Munster when they were dominant. Munster could not go anywhere, but we have a very strong attacking system and we will give their defence the biggest test they have seen. Saracens are better than when we beat them two years ago, but so are we. We took our opportunities that day and will need to do so again.” Mark McCall the role model for old pal David Humphreys at Gloucester Read more It will be the seventh Anglo-French final, with English clubs having won four. “Saracens beat a http://www.officialpadrestore.com/Dave_Winfield_Jersey team in last year’s final that did not have much European experience,” says Kayser, who will be appearing in his fourth final having lost with Leicester in 2009 and for Clermont against Toulon in 2013 and two years later. “The Champions Cup is special to our club and it is the No1 in our calendar. We have learned from the two finals we lost: the great gods of rugby decided the ball would not bounce for us in the first but in the second we were beaten by the better side and had to suck it up. We are better than we were and time will tell if it will be enough

Jürgen Klopp spoke of a point gained, of a performance undermined by a dry pitch and a penalty missed following a spot of gamesmanship by Southampton’s players and Mark McGwire Authentic Jersey particularly their goalkeeper, Fraser Forster. Only time – and rivals’ results – will determine whether the Liverpool manager was clutching at straws but judgment does not have to wait on his team’s pursuit of Champions League qualification. They are scrambling towards the line at Anfield. Should Liverpool secure a top-four finish, and they remain in control of that destiny, it will not be courtesy of Fortress Anfield, having taken two points from the last nine available on home soil. Southampton emerged unscathed from a confrontation with Klopp’s team for the fourth time this season and with a fourth clean sheet after Forster denied James Milner from the penalty spot. Liverpool were laboured in their passing – a failing their manager attributed to the condition of the pitch – their movement and their finishing. A dry pitch cannot be blamed for all three flaws. “Before the game I said we needed three more wins and so now I would say two would not be bad,” Klopp said. “It makes sense that we now concentrate on West Ham. We are still fighting and nobody has given up or anything like this. I spoke immediately to the boys after the game – I cannot and don’t want to take away the disappointment – but what I said is that we have one point more than before. The best manager I had and the most experienced said always at the end of the season the point will be really welcome. I believe this. Now we have to analyse this game. We will do it one more time and then speak about it and start the preparations for West Ham.” Claude Puel may have his problems at St Mary’s, where his team were booed off after last weekend’s goalless draw at home to Hull City, but he has had Liverpool’s number http://www.officialathleticshop.com/authentic-9-reggie-jackson-jersey.html this season. The first half was a non-event with only the referee Robert Madley’s decision-making rousing the Anfield crowd as Liverpool, not for the first time this season, found Southampton a disciplined, organised and immovable obstacle. Puel’s team showed only limited intent as an attacking force and spent most of a sun-kissed afternoon on Merseyside sitting deep and absorbing pressure. They did so comfortably thanks in large measure to a central midfield trio of Steven Davis, Oriol Romeu and James Ward-Prowse. Southampton’s midfield core stuck diligently to the task of protecting their defence while tracking Liverpool’s runs from deep, and the home side lacked the ideas and movement to find a route through to Forster’s goal. Advertisement When they did escape the trio’s shackles, and Roberto Firmino was the only forward able to do so before the introduction of Daniel Sturridge, Liverpool’s attempts on goal were straight at the Southampton goalkeeper. With even Philippe Coutinho’s touch deserting him on occasions, the contest was another fierce examination of Anfield’s patience. Klopp’s team were handed a glorious opportunity to end the stalemate and enhance their Champions League prospects midway through the second half by Jack Stephens. The Southampton defender has flourished in the absence of the injured Virgil van Dijk and was enjoying another assured display here when he conceded a needless penalty. Stephens beat Divock Origi in the air as they challenged in the area for a Lucas Leiva cross but, as they jostled for the second ball with Emre Can and Maya Yoshida http://www.officialmagicstoreonline.com/Jason_Williams_Jersey in attendance, the defender nudged the ball clear with his elbow. Madley had no hesitation in pointing to the spot. Southampton argued long and hard over the decision with Forster doing his utmost to unsettle Milner as he prepared to take the kick. He succeeded. The converted left-back struck his penalty hard and low but the England international goalkeeper read his intentions perfectly and produced a fine save to his right. Milner’s first miss from eight penalties this season could not have arrived at a worse time for Liverpool. “The penalty is harsh,” argued Puel. “Jack turns and the ball falls on his arm but it was too harsh to concede a goal against this penalty. It was an important save. For me it was not a penalty. On the other side we could have had a sending off for [Simon] Mignolet when he touched the ball outside his box.” Klopp countered: “You saw what they did. I understand how you should handle a situation like this. On one side you people will say it is very smart because he missed and on the other people will say it is not sportsmanship. Whatever I say we always look like bad losers or whatever.” The Liverpool manager went for broke straight after Milner’s miss, introducing Adam Lallana and Sturridge for Lucas and Origi respectively. The threat level increased marginally but Forster was equal to everything that came his way. One save from Coutinho was routine, so too a tame effort from Sturridge after the striker had created space for himself superbly inside the area, but in added time he made an excellent stop to tip over the substitute Marko Grujic’s header from a Milner Jeff Green Youth Jersey cross. It was left to Arsenal to lift Liverpool’s day

KINGSTON, Jamaica — Distinguished jurist and judge of the International Court of Justice (ICJ), Patrick Robinson this morning<a href="http://www.authenticsaintsshop.com/shop-by-players-hauoli-kikaha-jersey-c-1_16.html">Hauoli Kikaha Kids Jersey</a>  congratulated a team from the Norman Manley Law School on placing second in the prestigious Phillip C Jessup Moot Court competition, bettering their previous best of a top four finish.

Robinson served as a judge in the finals of this year’s competition, in which the Norman Manley Law School was a competitor for the first time.

The Jamaican jurist was sworn in as a judge of the international court in February 2015 to serve a three-year term, thereby becoming the only Jamaican and the second Caribbean person to serve on the ICJ in its 70-year history.

The letter in full:

The Editor Sir,

The Phillip C Jessup Moot Court is the<a href="http://www.authenticbroncosshop.com/shop-by-players-shannon-sharpe-jersey-c-1_22.html">Shannon Sharpe Youth Jersey</a>  most prestigious International Law Moot Court in the world. I was a Judge for the final round of this year's competition that took place in Washington DC USA, on April 15th, 2017. The other Judges were James Crawford, who, like myself, is a Judge of the International Court of Justice and Bruno Simma, a former Judge of that Court.   

Prior to the start of the competition, I asked the organisers who were the two finalists. I was told that the rules of the competition prohibited the disclosure of that information to the Judges.

When the Respondents started to present their case I got the shock of my life- their accent sounded familiar. They were in fact students of the Norman Manley Law School, Kingston, Jamaica. In the finals, the Judges ruled in favour of the Applicants, a team from Australia.

The significance of the Jamaican team's achievement in placing second in this contest is illustrated by the following statistics.  In terms of international law moot courts, the Phillip C Jessup Moot Court has the widest global<a href="http://www.authenticsteelerssale.com/shop-by-players-franco-harris-jersey-c-2_38.html">http://www.authenticsteelerssale.com/shop-by-players-franco-harris-jersey-c-2_38.html</a>  coverage, with 640 Law Schools from 95 countries participating.  At the two-week stage of the competition in Washington that ended on April 15th 2017, 143 Law Schools participated. To reach the final, the Norman Manley Law School students had to win 8 consecutive debates, sometimes debating twice in a day.

The moot covered several areas of international law, including the use of transboundary aquifers, the protection of cultural heritage, the human right to water and food, and the question of a host state's right to compensation for refugees. The issues raised were diverse and complex.  The Jamaican students had an excellent grasp of the facts and the law.  The Norman Manley Law School was represented by Jhade Lindsay, Victor Brown, Scott Mullings, Kalisia Miller and Anna-Kay Brown, coached by Marc Ramsay, an attorney-at-law.

Norman Manley would have been proud of the<a href="http://www.authenticsteelersshop.com/shop-by-players-joe-gilliam-jersey-c-2_71.html">http://www.authenticsteelersshop.com/shop-by-players-joe-gilliam-jersey-c-2_71.html</a>  performance of these students. I am tremendously proud of their achievement and so should every Jamaican.  

Sincerely,

Patrick Robinson

Judge

You may recall for the past several offseasons that I ran an article series called The Optimist’s/Pessimist’s Take. I used it to <a href="http://www.authentic49ersshop.com/shop-by-players-blaine-gabbert-jersey-c-1_8.html">Blaine Gabbert Kids Jersey</a> explore different issues and topics the Pittsburgh Steelers were facing and took a positive or negative approach, examining each side in a separate article. This is essentially the same idea behind that, only condensed into one article for every topic.

In this version of the idea, I’ll be playing the Devil’s Advocate for both sides of the issue, looking at the best-case and worst-case scenarios in trying to find the range of likely outcomes of what is likely to happen for the Steelers relating to whatever topic the article is covering.

When it comes to the process of trying to construct a championship roster, the reality is that there are a ton of moving parts, and several ways to acquire said parts. There are a lot of things that can go right or wrong in not always <a href="http://www.authenticcowboyssale.com/shop-by-players-rico-gathers-jersey-c-2_63.html">Rico Gathers Womens Jersey</a> predictable ways, so I think it’s helpful to try to look at issues by seeking out the boundaries of the likely positive or negative results.

Topic: Will third-year defensive end L.T. Walton earn a consistent game-day helmet in 2017 after improving last year?

It’s not incredibly often that a late-round draft pick develops into a significant contributor to a team, at least by the percentages, but the Steelers have fared reasonably well—albeit not among the absolute best—in that regard over the years.

2015 sixth-round draft pick L.T. Walton would seem to be the latest addition to their collection of late-round contributors, as the young player was thrust into the spotlight due to injury in the second half of last season.

He represented himself well in the running game, but struggled to offer much as a pass rusher. And ultimately, the bottom line is that the Steelers traditionally only dress five defensive linemen. That means three defensive ends and two nose tackles, generally.

The Steelers signed Tyson Alualu to be their <a href="http://www.authenticcowboysstore.com/shop-by-players-brice-butler-jersey-c-2_40.html">http://www.authenticcowboysstore.com/shop-by-players-brice-butler-jersey-c-2_40.html</a> third defensive end this year, and one would think that he is higher on the depth chart than Walton. He has spent the majority of his career on the inactive list because of the depth chart, only dressing when injuries have factored into the equation.

But it’s not impossible that they could dress six linemen, especially if they are serious about exercising a greater rotation there, which would make sense given the injuries to their starters last year and the snaps they have been asked to play.

An additional consideration is the potentiality of either Alualu or even Walton himself developing into a backup nose tackle the way that Al Woods did. In that event, the Steelers could get away with dressing four defensive ends and leaving Daniel McCullers on the bench, assuming he makes the roster.

Walton is actually listed at the same weight as Javon Hargrave and they are comfortable with his ability to play the nose. And he has shown the capacity to play the run well, which would be his main task at the nose. But the fact that Hargrave also plays<a href="http://www.authenticraiderssale.com/shop-by-players-seth-roberts-jersey-c-2_39.html">http://www.authenticraiderssale.com/shop-by-players-seth-roberts-jersey-c-2_39.html</a>  in the nickel, and could even play at end in the 3-4 if necessary, could also hurt Walton’s chances of dressing regularly. There are a lot of things to consider, and it’s only April.

Which side do you lean closer toward?
