FIFY

We still have several well paid pending free agents. They can’t all be coming back. Willie, Vaughters, and Stan are well over $500k combined. I don’t think any of them are essential anymore. Thomas, Wilson, and Tony Jones can all be replaced by younger and cheaper guys. Add the marketing money and the rising cap and we should be fine to add a few good fas.

I don't see anyone complaining about Nichols.

OH......but I thought Toronto was the centre of the country......

Nice to see Nichols back. I do wonder at this point where the club plans to save some money.

Ok Ive got to ask the question, is any vet that we have worth what were paying him cause according to posts we'd be hard pressed to field a team of anything but entry level players

Lol..how bout middling? 😃 But for all his good attributes that's his weakest skill...gets ran through.. misses diving at ankles (him and Kramdi are phenomenal at that) and rarely can bring a guy down whsen engaged...but good at being carried for 5 to 7 yards He breaks well on ball tho and closes at an elite level...has top tier speed too..would be great as a cover safety over the top and breaking on balls..would prob become a picking machine..

Weak tackler? Give me average at least. C'mon it's Christmas. 🙂

we need to spend money there with a legit difference maker.....and would help with some of the possible returnees seeming better...scheme tweak too would help He is weak tackler...not overly strong on the run...I wouldn't say he is total package....good cover guy and closes well for sure....thats why I think we should have him at safety and he likely leads league in picks....tho he doesn't have greatest hands either in pickin' regards....I would have rather we signed Him and Nichols and let Kramdi walk...he aint worth what he is getting and as said before...His position doesnt need to be Canadian so paying premium price for his production....dumb

Woot! You’re free to do my driveway now.

Jets should retire #14 as a hint.

They can save a lot of money on DL and probably not miss a beat. How many times did you hear the name Jefferson other than to say "Jefferson is still on the team?"

Hope not. Not perfect of course but Holm brings the whole package on and off the field.

smart....and great move....Is Holm on outs now? A lot of scratch would be invested again in him..Kramdi and Nichols

Yeah, the Jets have issues, for sure, but DeMelo isn’t one of them. And the penalty he got with just under 3 minutes left in the 3rd was complete BS.

Winnipeg Blue Bombers extend standout DB Deatrick Nichols - 3DownNation

Boy that Blizzard is nasty, good thing I opted to cancel my doctor's appointment

Next year is our year territory?

Longitudinal center of Canada!

20 other teams would snap him up.

I've been thinking this for a while and have to say it: DeMelo. He's not the sole cause of the team's issues, but last night he turned the puck over in our own zone right before the St Louis goal and then took a dumb penalty at the end when we were trying to tie it up. I used to be surprised that he has such a high plus/minus rating but then realized it makes sense because you don't get a minus when you're sitting in the penalty box.

it pays to be located in the middle of the country.

Yeah, however a few more short weeks next season. You are right about the less travel. This Stats Geek guy has the Bombers as the team traveling the least.

How can you have an Asst GM but no GM? Talk about a top heavy "who's in charge" organization???
