Don’t expect name tags to be handed out to any unsigned players heading into Edmonton Eskimos mini-camp April 17-19 in Vero Beach, Fla.

After all, the whole point of heading down to Historic Dodgertown, besides for returning players to knock a little of the off-season rust off, is for new faces to try and make a name for themselves.

Until then, Eskimos head coach and offensive co-ordinator Jason Maas doesn’t even want to know them.

“To be honest with you, I don’t worry about the names that are showing up,” said Eskimos head coach Jason Maas. “Guys that are on are roster and are going, are on our roster. But I’m more focused on the whole group and not anyone particular individual.

“What I’m going down there looking for is guys that compete and see who catches your eye. I don’t really want to know too much as far as what we’re getting into.”

Prior to mini-camp, the Eskimos are holding a play-in day at the same facilities, which will provide yet another opportunity for the players the Eskimos have had their eyes on to move on with the group and maybe even earn an invite to training camp at the end of May.
