good measurements.  G-Man does like his tall corners.  Would imagine insurance and competition for training camp for Bradberry and Worley sense hes practically an outside corner based on measurements.

It's not Dave that likes the tall corners, it's Ron Ron and his minions.

True true.  Tall long armed corners fit our zone defensive scheme.

redblacks?

It's officially REDBLACKS, thank you very much. Apparently it's slang for lumberjack cause of the red and black flannels they wore. At least we don't have two teams called the Roughriders anymore.

Former Redblacks' Jeff Richards determined to make NFL dream come true

As a kid, Jeff Richards was a big NFL fan — he’d sit on the couch with his dad Jeff Richards Sr. and watch the Dallas Cowboys play.

As much as he loved football, he didn’t play a lot. He’d try out for teams, then get cut — told he was too small. So it was hard for him to imagine one day he’d get an opportunity to play in the NFL.

“I wanted to be a running back,” Richards said. “Emmitt Smith was my favourite player. As it turned out, I didn’t have a running back body.”

Little Jeff sprouted up six inches from his 5-foot-6 frame heading into his senior year of high school. He played football and they found out he was good, real good. And that set the wheels in motion.

The defensive back is now 6-foot-2, he’s going to have a ring from the Ottawa Redblacks’ amazing 39-33 Grey Cup win over the Calgary Stampeders … and he’s got an NFL futures deal in hand, from the Carolina Panthers, a contract that was signed on Richards’ 26th birthday on Tuesday. It’s expected that two of Richards’ Redblacks defensive backfield mates — Forrest Hightower (New Orleans Saints) and Mitchell White will also get a shot to play in the NFL. Along with Richards, a backup with Ottawa for much of the 2016 season, they got their release from the Redblacks earlier this week to pursue NFL opportunities.

The plan started to come together when agent Donte Robinson from Focus Sports Agency sent film to all 32 NFL teams. The first to respond was Carolina, but he also worked out for others. The Panthers signed him as soon as they could.

 Former Northeastern Oklahoma A&M defensive back Jeff Richards vows he will be on the 53-man roster of the NFL Carolina Panthers on opening day 2017.

"I plan on it. I plan on it," Richards said in a phone interview Thursday afternoon. "I am going to call it out right now: I will be on that 53-man roster."

4 pages for a camp body?

Primarily because some folks don't seem to get what a "camp body" is.

Complaining about this is just silly.
