If we have 3 cdn oline...2 receivers...and BO....why play more than 1 on defence if they not the best option...Thats just falling into more of the same ol same ol as previous yrs and makes us weaker just to appease Osh and his Canadiana bias

Just move on already

Meh....Tho he did have a full season and was very solid but wasnt spectacular and I like this only if he is signed with intent of being depth/rotational as one of the DA's and not blocking one of the young Canadian LB's or Woodbey. Also if the designate him a Nationalized American and actually use as such.... Anything more than that and this is just dumb.....and if he and T.Jones are already ear marked as defacto starters regardless of how camp plays out....we just gonna be in the same cycle as previous last 3 yrs....and that just reeks of same ol same ol to me

This seems like a not good move when you've got Shay and Smith needing reps....

One more year for Kyrie. Blue Bombers Re-Sign Kyrie Wilson - Winnipeg Blue Bombers

I really liked Ayers in his rookie year, and at a low salary I'd bring him back for his ST work, but realistically after 2 years if he hasn't been able to supplant WIlson then I don't realistically see him as being a starter anymore. I think Vanterpool is still a must sign, as both our LT and RT futures need to be in place this year. I am OK with Tony Jones coming back but I agree that recruitment needs to find our next MIKE asap. LB is the least of our concerns right now though. Sterns I wouldn't bother with, go FA and replace him, There are half a dozen guys who are as good or better that will be available for a similar price point and we really need to flip the script on our receiving corps and get some 50/50 ballers.

2 minimum, 3 quite likely

Who needs Ernst and Young when Goalie's doing a good job.

Now watch them get 2 year sentences with time served....

I don't remember the run game being a problem for our defense. I don't know where you get this Tony Jones makes a lot of tackles ... ten yards downfield business. Our problem was our offense. It cost us the season.

I can’t see us going this way at all We have Lawson and Kramdi on defense and even if you’re not a believer in Kramdi, we’ve invested draft capital into Shay/Smith who should see a greater opportunity this season. There’s no way we don’t play 2 Canadians on D, in my opinion.

Are you willing to go Demski/Clercuis/Cobb with Corcoran backing up because that's who we have now?

Cam has been a solid linebacker for years but is now in the twilight of his career.

To the experts here, Darius Ciraco how good / bad is he as a Center? Is he better than Chris K or Eli ?

Broncos are in the super bowl if nix was healthy. Eventho the backup wasn’t the problem. I was a big John Elway fan so used to love the Broncos. Nix is him. Denver will be back with a healthy Nix. Remember a few years ago? The nhl all star game had a goon in it? Can’t remember the name but the fans basically made it happen for him. Yeah. This is that all over again. There are more shadeur D riders than there are Browns fans.

Well. I did the draft simulator 5 times just 2 minutes ago. Jets got 1st 3 times and 3rd twice. McKenna was taken 1st. Keaton Verhoff 3rd. Ran it again and we got 5th and took chase reid. anyways. https://www.tankathon.com/nhl/mock_draft

Ayers is a true linebacker and they had him playing on the DL. So id bring him back to compete at camp for a lb spot cuz dudes a special teams monster. Honestly at this point I’d let Kyrie go and have Woodbey and Shay take his spot and Ayers battle it out with Novak and Jones in the middle with Kramdi or smith maybe old man griffin and some rookies at SAM. Although Kramdi at safety intrigues me now. Personally I don’t think Tony Jones should be gifted his spot as he seems to lack something, I’m not sure what, perhaps being a fan since the lobendahn days I’m expecting more from the middle man. I dunno. I know tho. Lots of tackles. Yup. Lots after gaining 10 yards tho first.

I wonder if you go 3 cdn receivers starting with Wilson and ideally Johnson as your Americans. Gives you some nice roster options and flexibility there. 3 receivers. Brady. 2 oline means only 1 starting cdn on D required and none if you go 3 Canadian oline really.

Neild would be a nice NI receiving option imo.

Agreed. I like both of them. Nothing special but two solid experienced possession receivers that could help us. Pressure is on Walters to quit being the bridesmaid & start being the bride. To sign one of Austin Mack or Tim White.

Key word...had...for 2026 we should be doing better...

Except they were better than the guys we had.
