During Hour 1 Edmonton Elks General Manager Ed Hervey joined the show discussing training camp and his roster ahead of their first preseason game this weekend. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Description: As training camp approaches, the focus shifts to leadership, expectations, and laying the foundation for a strong start to the Edmonton Elks season. Malik Carney shares his perspective on Defensive Coordinator JC Sherritt, drawing from their time together in Saskatchewan and highlighting what makes him such an effective coach. Nick Anderson adds his own insight into what it's like playing under a former linebacker, and how that perspective shapes the defense, the attention to detail and the standard being set across the roster—including the influence of Elks G.M. Ed Hervey. From there, both players look ahead to the grind of camp. They discuss the balance between excitement and exhaustion, what they're most looking forward to, and whether there's any dread that comes with the long days on the field. To wrap, Anderson outlines what it will take for the team to get off to a fast start this season, and what “success” needs to look like early on as they try to build momentum right out of the gate. It's a conversation centered on culture, preparation and the mindset needed to hit the ground running.

In this episode, we zero in on a pivotal moment for the Edmonton Elks as they head into the CFL Draft armed with serious draft capital. With six picks in the first 35 selections—thanks in part to G.M. Ed Hervey dealing Nyles Morgan to the Ottawa Redblacks—we explore how impactful this haul could be in reshaping the roster. What's the strategy at third overall? We break down the possibilities and how Hervey might approach a draft loaded with offensive line talent. Does he address the trenches early, or take advantage of depth later on? There's also a clear mandate to replenish Canadian talent following offseason losses, including the retirements of Tanner Green and Josiah Schakel. We look at whether this draft class has the pieces to immediately contribute—especially on special teams, where Canadian depth is critical. We'll spotlight top local prospects from the University of Alberta, debate whether a team takes a swing on Miami's Akeem Mesidor, and examine how post-NFL Draft signings could shake up the board. It's a deep dive into strategy, scouting, and the decisions that could define the Elks' future. Find all your CFL draft info at 3DownNation.com. Learn more about your ad choices.
