Strengths / Weaknesses


West is a good-sized receiver with very average speed who knows how to run routes and set up defenders. He does a good job of gaining a step of separation at this level with his crisp routes and little head-and-shoulder fakes, but he will struggle at the next level. He builds to speed and does not show a big burst coming out of his break and won't be much of a threat down the seam in the NFL. He does a good job of reading coverages and finding the soft spots in zones and is a natural receiver. He can adjust to slightly off-target throws and has a wide receiving radius.

West is thickly built with good height. Heady player who runs precise routes and uses fakes against defenders to gain separation. Finds holes in zone coverage on underneath routes and has the body control to adjust to errant throws. Has strong hands and catches the ball away from his body.



Does not have adequate speed to stretch the field or the initial burst to separate off the line at the next level. Lacks the explosion out of breaks to get open in man coverage. Limited athleticism prevents him from making people miss and getting yards after the catch.

Male Athlete of the Year Shawn Gore, Football
Gore, a fourth-year receiver, had a breakout season in 2009, becoming Mr. Everything for the Gaiters. After an injury-shortened 2008, Gore returned to lead the Gaiters with 32 catches for 496 yards and five touchdowns, highlighted by a career-long 73-yard catch on September 27 at Laval. In the Gaiters last regular-season game; he became the first Gaiter since 2003 to make two touchdown catches in a single game, and he extended his pass-catching streak to 21 games. Gore, who was also named the winner of the Prix Excellence Sportive Sherbrooke, was a force on special teams, recording a career-high seven special teams tackles (5 solo, 4 assisted) in eight games.

BU Boys Impress at CFL Combine 
By Jordan Winnett on March 17, 2010

The Bishops Gaiters football team sent three players to the 2010 CFL Evaluation Camp in Toronto this past weekend with hopes of impressing CFL scouts and general managers. Shawn Gore, Nick Poloniato and Steven Turner did more than impress; they dominated.

Gore and Poloniato were mentioned on TSNs Duane Fords list of eligible Canadian players to watch for before the start of the CIS season and they did nothing but improve their draft stock at the combine. Gore entered the weekend as one of the best receivers available, but thanks to great test results and dominant one-on-one drills, Gore was named by TSN as the best receiver and possible number one prospect heading into Mays CFL Draft.

I had a chance to speak with Gore following the weekend and it was clear he was still buzzing from the experience:

Its hard to put this weekend into words. I had a lot of fun with the interviews with all the teams and their coaches; at times they got very intense making me quite nervous, but I was able to keep my composure and get through them all with my usual smile. Individually I felt that I had a very strong performance, I was always one of the leaders in testing and excelled in the on-field drills. Months of training and a lot of discipline went into this short two day event, but it was definitely worth it as I was able to show professional teams that I can compete at the next level.

Poloniato demonstrated his athleticism as a defensive back, running the third fastest 40-yd dash at 4.46 seconds and finishing in the top ten of the sixty players invited in three of the other four testing categories. Poloniato expressed his content with the weekend to me after, saying, Im very happy with my testing. I knew I could put up the numbers I just had to do it. It was something I worked hard for on and off the field for the last four years to get to that point. On Sunday I felt I could have done a little bit better, but overall it was an awesome experience and I was just excited to be there and have the opportunity to show everyone what I am capable of.

Without a doubt the story of the weekend was Turner as he nearly swept the board, leading four of the five testing categories. Turner began by almost eclipsing former Gaiter and current BC Lion Jamall Lees vertical jump record of 44, with a 43.5 jump. Then he leaped a ridiculous 10 4.5 in the broad jump while also leading all wide receivers with 20 bench press repetitions at the 225-lb weight. This was all on Saturday, and his best events were supposed to be Sunday. Well, he didnt disappoint there either, running a combine record 4.31 40-yd dash (breaking Lees record of 4.39 from last year) and a camp best 4.03 shuttle. Turner was the least heralded BU player entering the camp, but it appears he took a lesson from former Gaiter James Yurichuk who was in a similar position last year before impressing at the combine and sky-rocketing up the draft board.

Turner had this to say to Monday following the combine:

I would like to thank BU and all the support throughout the combine. This past weekend at the e-camp was an experience of a lifetime. It felt amazing to be able to go and compete with the top prospects in Canada. Prior to the camp Coaches Blugh and McBrine gave me their word of advice which helped me stay calm and relaxed throughout the weekend. Being a part of the three athletes to go and represent Bishops at a national event and perform to the best of our abilities was a feeling that could not be put into words. I would especially like to thank the coaches for preparing us for four years the way they did to compete at a level as high as the CFL; not only physically, but mentally.

Overall, the three BU players ran the first (Turner 4.31), third (Poloniato 4.46) and fourth (Gore 4.50) best 40 yard dashes.

Clearly BU Head Coach Leroy Blugh and the rest of his staff are doing a great job preparing their players for the combine as the last two years have basically been a Gaiter showcase. Speaking with Lee following the remarkable results, he acknowledged the work the three players put in to be where they are now: The performance of the guys just goes to show what you can accomplish when you do things the right way and dont make excuses. Between Polly being overlooked for well deserved all star awards in the past, Gore coming back from, and playing with a broken arm/hand in a cast, and people doubting Turner because of his lack of size, these guys worked hard, made no excuses, and have been silencing the doubters, and now the country got to see it first hand.

Great thread idea!

If we find an article, let's post the article with the articles topic as the thread topic and then link to it in this thread. This will help create a broader discussion on each specific player.

Chastin West - slowest 10 yard split time at the Combine among WRs

"British" wrote:



Fastest: Jacoby Ford -- 1.45 seconds.
Slowest: Chastin West -- 1.67 seconds.

Difference: 0.22 seconds.

I have three questions for those of you who know more about this than me (i.e., almost everyone here):

1. Is a difference of .22 seconds in this kind of burst going to make a significant difference in the ability of a WR to clear line and separate? Especially if the DB is playing up close (i.e. significantly less than 10 yards. -- A difference of 0.22 seconds over 10 yards being roughly equivalent to a difference of 0.07 seconds over 3 yards.

2. What is the margin for error in this measurement? Less than 0.01 second? More than 0.01 second?

3. Does the answer to #1 change given the answer to #2?

I'm not anti-statistics. I just don't know enough about the variables involved here to know what is significant and why.

Thanks in advance.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
