GM has final say. If Walters didn't like the marine he could have released him, He's the guy that makes the call to the league office. Again, we are striving to let Walters off the hook around here. GM has final say on who is available to any coach. Just a cold hard fact.

Interesting thought.

I've only listened to a bit of HI. I don't expect him to be BLM, but if he is more than Forde that will be great. How wild is that? Every year it's been zach playing in the GC and talk of when will BLM retire to be in the booth. Now BLM made it further than zach, looks a million times better, and zach is doing the analyst thing.

We should have a Poll on this thread. Personally, I think Mos goes. This has always been the job, especially working under pinball and with more control. We have all known that from the day he was hired. I think Walters stays, and Wade continues for the time being. I've never thought Wade would keep this role for 15+ years. Wade should maybe make a call to Buono for his legendary referral services... He's been involved in probably half of the franchise turn overs since he retired.

He does a great job on Handled Internally... No surprise at all that he's doing this. He'll be awesome.

So Zach is going to work the GC as an analyst. That is kind of surprising to me. He's never been the most loquacious guy. He's Forde esq and maybe worse. But who knows perhaps he will be better when removed from the game played that day.

Yeah...that was part too...but also...he wasn't happy...was a big loss...u think a new young up and comer would say the other part in media...not happening Yes..in not so many words...and so he left

We come in with a new HC...with a vision and willing to let best players play...and spots be earned...we won't lose anyone we want/need to keep We stand pat and continue as we have ladt 2 yrs...expect many a defection..and piss poor FA period

Yup..always wrong....much like your drivel...continue lol Just cause you don't know me, don't let it get you down...others do...but also I don't need them or want them to vouch...your justvthe classic internet poster who peaked in high-school but still likes to live there leading your gaggle...u do u.. And cause I won't offer u names doesn't make it not true...I have to others in PM and had it validated...maybe some will tell u so but I don't require or need them too...its also about trust...and u have none and I can't trust u currently to divulge anything as far as I could throw you...and pretty sure I could toss u a fair distance too...why would I offer any tidbit to you ...someone who attacks..accuses...shoots off his cockhole incessantly...earn it...and u might get it

Losing Lawson and Oliviera would be a major setback.

I feel like we have seen cracks in the foundation of the Mos-Walters relationship at times. It's been a bit scarce, but the difference between their year ending and pre season interviews spoke volumes as well as a few moves we've made. That is a great quote. And Ted was all that and more. It does say something that he didn't feel that would be the case here without Ted ,though. To me, that sounds like between the lines he doesn't think we'd do what ever it takes to win, we didn't have that front office star aside from Ted, or that mentor type. Which does make sense knowing the nature of walters and ted. Makes me feel all the more for Penn too.

TBF, Penn says he left because of his loyalty to Ted. He was the one who brought Penn in to the CFL and gave him a shot.

Don't. Sign. Kola.

Could have landed Flo as well..amoung others...even guys like Godber could have been had in FA which would have made us significantly better...but when HC tbinks otherwise and got too much sway.....well.....deals can be made but when your HC says we good...and you trust him to a fault...well u get our roster And the G.M should trust the HC he chose...and shouldn't meddle into things...but there comes a point when they have to start exercising their g.m role as the boss too...but we didn't here...result of too much buddy buddy crap here ...possible but it needed to change this offseason ...last offseadon really but we dragged ass on several levels and were lucky to make playoffs if not for the cross over...I am a fan of the team and defend a lot...players and coaching...but we were a flawed smoke and mirrors team 2 yrs running..and the smoke finally took over

I'm assuming most here are grown men so thanks for that image that is funny yet disturbing all at the same time.

Wallace or Vanterpool imo. I think Vanterpool at G is turnkey. He isn't Bond good currently, but he flashed that upside. He's solid at T, but not at the point where you feel comfortable with him as you 1a guy. Eli also could be one of those guys. Yeah I think Bryant to G would be huge for him and us, Vanterpool or neuf could be good at C. Heck wallace played a bit. I actually like Vibert a bunch too, but he needs to come in a take job. I don't expect any draft pick to do more than be the 6th man this year, and even that would be really hard with the depth guys we have. I wouldn't mind us looking to flip a pick for a player like we did with Lawson and Peterson. Especially for an OL.

But if given total control basically...he'd have no pushback to deal with He was given too much here..and killed us and created rifts with his room and with scouting...There a reason Penn left here...why work your butt off all offseason for nothing...Ted offered him similar role and off he went

Yeah, the recovery seems kind of perplexing. He's not enough of a focal point for a ton of questions to be coming in for him, but he seems to be lagging. Should have some kind of update by next week. Hopefully its minor. Yeah. I think the CFL GMs are much more inclined to make trades now than they were a few years ago. And Cap wise, you don't often risk much with an off season trade.

We need 2 legit new bodies...or 1 if Wallace progresses which i sure he will We in good shape with Vpool and Randolph as future and to be honest a transition year with Vpool..Bryant...Eli if he gets the shot...or anyone but Kolo...Best of Neuf/Wallace...Randolph Bryant i think is more than serviceable at guard as we transition and be invaluable to Vpool and the center...and is damn good insurance in pinch if a tackle goes down We def tho need to grab a top notch olineman in FA regardless of position as have missed out on several good guys lately as we let our line erode..and guys walk

From what's been reported, he already has a big say in personnel here so is that really a big selling feature? Yep, BC paid peanuts for Allen (who was a pending FA). There are moves available to be made.

Even out side of FA, bc swung a deal last year involving an elite imp T. He said She said. I would not be surprised at all if Walters and Mos came to be at significant odds with the roster. Especially when you look at guys going from favorites to released/un signed like the marine.

The last update on Manu was Nov 5th where Campbell said he didn't see him starting in the next week or two. He's eligible to return on Sunday but he hasn't practiced so that's not happening.

So Argos apparently wanna give osh big say in personelle...obviously they delusional and wanna be wandering the wilderness aimlessly....have at er But new HC and era about to start here. 2 yrs too late but still a good thing

I don't think stud OL are super rare in FA and the Bombers have been on both sides of it. We picked up arguably the greatest OL in CFL history through FA and we've lost a number of really good ones over the last few years.

Would love Drew back. Manu is struggling with rehab with the Lions. He tweaked his knee and was supposed to be out 4 weeks, which wasn't supposed to be season-threatening. But he's missed 4 games plus a bye week, and it sounds like he isn't close to ready to practice or even have an updated timeline to return. Hard to know what to make of his injury/return. It is the kind of thing that can expedite a guy's departure from a team/league. But facing tough injury rehab is as likely to push a guy out of pro football altogether. I hope for the best for him, he was just starting to get on down there.
