VANCOUVER -- In the case of this years edition of the B.
Chaussure Nmd
France .C. Lions, familiar faces can fool you. The veteran core
remains intact and, for now, only two newcomers -- one on offence and one on
defence -- have won jobs as starters. But the Lions have made several
significant changes since they placed first in the West Division with a 13-5
mark and were upset in the 2012 West final by the Calgary Stampeders. "Theres a
lot of different kinds of mixes, and its an entirely different team," said coach
Mike Benevides. Most of the changes involve holdovers assuming new and expanded
roles, including new positions, as Benevides and general manager Wally Buono
follow through on their plan to make the team younger and stronger. "Right now,
if I have to look at it and be honest, we have greater depth," said Benevides.
"Theres more depth than we know about." The most prominent changes are on
offence, where second-year quarterback Thomas DeMarco will back up starter
Travis Lulay. DeMarco assumes Mike Reillys former backup role following his
trade to Edmonton as a result of Lulays new contract. The Lions have also
brought in former Winnipeg Blue Bomber Joey Elliott as quarterbacking insurance.
In other prominent offensive revisions, slotbacks Nick Moore and Courtney Taylor
replace all-time leading CFL receiver Geroy Simon (traded to Saskatchewan) and
Arland Bruce (released and signed by Montreal). Wide receiver Emmanuel Arceneaux
returns after two years in the NFL, giving the Lions a deep threat that they
have lacked. Other changes on offence are less eye-catching but still
significant because they involve an offensive line that was decimated by
injuries at the guard position last season. Rookie Kirby Fabien, previously a
tackle who was chosen seventh overall in the 2012 CFL draft but returned to the
University of Calgary for another season, will start at right guard while
Patrick Kabongo, 33, gets the call at left guard. Matt Norman, a second-year
guard who is being groomed as Angus Reids eventual replacement at centre, could
start the season in the middle as the veteran recuperates from a back injury.
Norman is slated to move to the starting left guard spot once Reid is healthy.
On defence, things are likely to be less animated following eccentric lineman
Khalif Mitchells trade to the Toronto Argonauts. Key defensive-line changes
include Keron Williams moving inside to Mitchells former tackle spot from
defensive end, and second-year pro Jabar Westerman, the West Divisions top
rookie in 2012, getting a starting job at end. The linebacking corps has also
experienced change as 2012 CFL all-star Adam Bighill moves to the outside from
the middle, where he ranked second in the league in tackles last season with
104. The move accommodates Solomon Elimimian, who returned from the NFL in the
second half of 2012 and is more comfortable playing middle linebacker. Bighill
is well versed in the outside spot, having played there as a rookie in 2011. The
secondary has also undergone a shuffle as Korey Banks moves to nickelback,
acting as a hybrid linebacker-defensive back from halfback, and J.R. LaRose
takes over at safety. Cord Parks becomes the other newcomer to grab a starting
spot at cornerback. In arguably the most dramatic change, veteran kicker Paul
McCallum, the CFLs oldest player at 43, will focus on field goals in his 21st
CFL season. Hugh ONeill, who spent the past two seasons serving as his
understudy, is expected to handle kick-offs and possibly punts. "Certainly,
there is tremendous value to having two (kickers) on the roster --for depth, for
leg strength on kick-offs, for accuracy from (McCallums) placekicking, and
punting," said Benevides. In another special teams adjustment, newcomer Korey
Williams could feature prominently as a punt and kick-off returner. The Lions
assigned him to active duty to prevent another club from plucking him off the
practice roster. "Were a good, solid team," said McCallum. "Weve got a good core
group of players. We work hard, are very talented, have lots of depth. So for
me, if I have to say expectations as far as wins and losses, and expectations as
far as going out and playing hard, we should be successful." The Lions will open
the season Friday in Calgary, hoping for a chance at some revenge after last
years West final loss. However, Benevides said the Lions have to put the
bitterness of that setback behind them. "Really, lets make sure we learned some
lessons," he said. "But, really, we cant live with that. This is a whole
different team, a whole different year. The league is different. "So, for me,
the approach is: Lets move on."
