So Whatever Happened to That DB We Drafted from WV?

He was up here in Winnipeg and got cut from the Bombers.

Basically all you need to know.

I was excited when we drafted him

Edit: his Wikipedia page says he's still here, so maybe he is. Also I saw Toney Clemons name and Darvin Adams name as well on the roster for this season. I expect both to make the team

It was a dumb pick.  I know that seems obvious in hindsight, but Hurney spent the 1st pick of the 4th round on a CB coming off of a torn ACL with a laundry list of off-field issues.  That's the type of guy that almost always goes undrafted.  To make matters worse, he spent the pick before that, the last pick of the 3rd round on the legendary Sione Fua.

He never fully recovered from his injury. To say he simply sucked and that he had a terrible work habit is a bit of a simplification of the situation.

Yeah, on that note, he clearly didn't suck the few times he played.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
