David Knevel and Arnaud Gendron-Dumouchel still available. Those two can block out the sun at 6’9” and 300Lbs+...

So Dorazio now has #5 overall pick in 2014 (Foucault), #6 overall pick in 2016 (Valliancourt) and #3 overall in 2018 (Godber) to groom into the other starting guard spot, in addition to Greaves as a FA.
Steward should be at tackle with 4 starting OL nationals but we know that won't happen.

Knevel to the Lions, I am surprised he was still available but glad. Potential tackle perhaps? Love his size 👍

Hardaway is Godber's agent so I wonder if he will be a TC hold out? With the seeming uncertainty of the Lions O line, I would think that Godber has a chance to compete for starting or at least playing time, only IF he makes it to TC, though.

Surprised that no player has been selected from perennial powerhouse Laval
