At TC, we ride! lol Honestly, I could see taking Kyrie over Jones in a situation we would never entertain. You use Kyrie as the naturalized import. You start Shay/Smith at Mac, Woodbey at Wil. (Kramdi goes to S, Allen to the corner.) Then Kyrie can play special teams, sub in situationally for the run and pass as needed for either LBER, including a half of the Canadians' snaps if they are struggling, or if you go to a 30 front, you can put Kyrie in and kick Woodbey out to dime. Jones would have been in the league long enough to qualify as a naturalized player the following year, and with us to qualify. Jones is awful in pass cover, kyrie like wj I could see being more effective if used in fewer reps. Of course, we aren't going to use the naturalized American rule, or Kyrie in that role, or move on from Jones. I expect, if Kyrie is healthy out of camp, he will be the starter no matter how any one else plays.

Not to mention Ayers and Woodbey... I hate this signing... not that I don't like Kyrie Wilson... because he has given us some really quality years.... I just hate the idea of playing a 33 year old (let's be honest, he's starting at WIL) on the down side of his career when we have multiple ealry to mid 20s guys ready to play and needing reps... just doesn't make any sense to me

Running back the core of a roster that *clearly* wasn't good enough last season ... what could go wrong?

But they are not O'Shea pets.

Don't get the Kyrie signing at all. Hope he came cheap and there is more than a 1% chance he'll be cut if he's out played in TC

Signing Wilson is a waste of many and it likely blocks Smith and Shay from getting needed reps. Bet both leave when they can. Why stay when you can sit behind declining aging vets. #OldBoysClubForever

He's probably part of O'Shea's hand picked player group where gives them full power on going out on their own terms even if it's not the best situation for the team that I'm sure he has rationalized this is good for the player and the team.

I have the same concern right from the extension of Osh....Walter's got rid of some the dead weight and garbage....but Osh also still has control of roster after that...and He runs camp...and picks his roster, and how it's used...Not sold on anything being different until I see it, and sadly right now not holding my breath on it

I am increasingly concerned that roster management and poor decision making will continue. Camp better not be a summer camp - and the Bombers better be prepared to move on from players during camp. Worse than 50/50 they wont.

he's better than KOLO....but thats a low bar...TBD on Eli but I bet you all will be impressed this yr if given the job and the rope the human ole machine got for 3 yrs...allow him to settle in and we roll...

Looks like were rounding up the gang for one last ride

of 2 of the 3 block Woodbey and the Canucks...yup...Also Woodbey and or Griffin is the better(best) option at SAM too....but we already are saddled with Kramalama and his crap contract....a Kyrie..Jones..Kramdi 3some again for 2026....is worst in league...and immenent

Couldn't be worse.

SADLY....and that why I have zero faith in OSH actually seeing the errors of his ways...and changing like he suggests Thank christ Walter's has eliminated some of his fav's or 2026 would have been a literal shitshow again

You know the answer as well as anyone else

But why...

Mediocre linebacking crew back for 2026!

womp wooomp

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
