Mos views teams guys reps as important as D/O. He has only started canadian lbers when absolutely forced into by injury, or absolute lack of options early. He’s got both shay and smith penned in for teams only when they should’ve gotten D reps Does any one think kornelson is a better guy to have fill reps than shay or smith? We could’ve gone imp at dt and ni at one lber spot. He also sat clercius for corcoran, that guys top speed is the same as old people who mall walk. Mos isn’t enamoured by canadians as much as lunch box types with football iq. When those guys happen to be canadians, it’s a wet dream for him. The marine was playing most of the season here in 23, when burtenshaw was sitting on the pr. The lber/fb super sub sts guy we drafted and lauded until mos fell in love with jackson. Same goes for charbonneau. You can also look at guys like Rosery, who did every thing we asked to the point of going back to school working on pass catching came back again, shined in his few opportunities to be cut while we kept wastes of space. Petermann too, it’s almost like the more athletic and upside a canadian has the less mos likes them. He’s always gets stuck on the sub par athletes.

It's an idea. I'd try to bring an American on to join that backfield.

The one thing I really can’t believe on O is how far they’ve got from recruiting/signing the types of players that succeed with Zach. I honestly DGAF about what any OC wants for personnel past the QB. You have to build around the QB in any league. Ideally for Zach you have a lanky, physical boundary WR, a Fantuz/Schoen type slot just big target pure route runner with excellent skills on scramble rules, a slot like a Tasker or Sterns quick inside leverage target zone killer, your field WR is just a big slab of receiver who can win stick and dagger be reliable, and your 5th guy is a playmaker like a Demski. We have like 2.5 of those things depending on if Clercius learns how to win an inside break and if Schoen is healthy. All of it really relies on that boundary WR though because if teams have to worry about that guy you open up so much space in the middle of the field.

I guess I'm used to Bomber home games where the home team is insanely loud. I guess they aren't selling many tickets in Regina so that might have been a home game feel for them.

Both walters and mos have been working off 1 years for a while. No coach/gm on a team consistently trending soo sharply down and fell backwards into the last play off spot gets a 3 year deal in the cfl. Yeah, we are cooked if they don’t turn it around fast. This is brutal.

BOLO? That's the guy you want to say that we held back? Have you looked at his performance since he left here? We had Americans in the way? No....we had Americans that were better and gave us a better chance of winning. You guys criticize Osh for 8-9 NAT starters but want every position a NAT backs up for them to start over an IMP. Makes no sense. Our high drafted guys were Shay and Smith, what leads you to believe they were better than any of our starting LBers? Show your work.

No one on planet earth is signing a 1 year coaching deal... That's not how it works.

It is a tiny sample size in what was an exhibition game. Further to that, he wasn't high end by any stretch of the imagination. However, he did show nicely for a rookie. Who would you have taken out to put him in? What makes you believe he constituted any kind of upgrade? That's what we are talking about here. He was rostered all season, so what we are talking about is starting reps. I didn't see anything that led me to believe he deserved starting reps all season.

Except we know that's not true... we had high drafted guys this past year never got a sniff because of Americans in the way. BOLO was healthy and can contribute yet didn't take a snap in a Grey cup game where 3 receivers were dinged up.... osh isn't flawless. He plays guys and not others for lots of different reasons.

So given the Coaching Cap, we're stuck with them if things go bad, correct? Again, Wade should have given them one year deals. Its a tiny sample size but given how he played in the last regular season game, Smith should have been getting reps on D all year.

Who are these high end rookies not playing? Name one. Name a guy that's sitting on our depth chart now or formerly that has been good here or elsewhere.. ONE just ONE.

You can put it on Osh if you like, but the conversation is about NAT players. Who are the stud NATs we haven't been playing? For crissakes, if there were any and I mean ANY stud NATs sitting on our depth chart does anyone here honestly believe OSH wouldn't play them? The guy would start 24 NATs if he could. He was nicked up. He could've played but Osh decided to sit him. Isn't that what you criticized him ad nauseum for not doing before? Pick a lane.

I think that our recruitment in general has been very poor over the past several years. I think the only period of time we saw good recruitment with this regime was when Rigmaiden was here. Other than that not a whole lot. Look at our depth. It's pathetic.

Besides Shoen and to a lesser extent Pokey, the track record of scouting American receivers by this regime is by far the worst in the league. It really needs to improve this year.

IDK. He's only played in 60 games and not all of them as a starter. The Elks have not been a good team until the last half of 2025 and Faj was the starter. For back up money and not having to trade a significant asset for him, he's a maybe. Calvillo wasn't a very good QB until he became the back up for T. Ham then he developed. It does take a good team to surround a QB so it's not all on him. It wasn't until AC's 6th season before he threw for more TD's than int's. Hamilton essentially let him leave Hamilton after 3 seasons of marginal success.

Kenny would help no doubt, but they really need to bring in someone who can light it up through scouting. Gotta have at least a couple of high level players on rookie contracts.

Bring back Kenny.....one of the top receivers in this league.....I don't know if he was on a one year IF he was bring him back...I also hope we can talk Elgersma to show up here....The future of the qb situation is dire and we need to make some serious plans ......scrap the return of Lawler ....guess he signed for 2 years

THIS Reminds me of the dark days of our receiving corps when we were pretending Rory Kohlert was a legit receiver. Back then the Bombers had an excuse,....years of poor GMing. Hmmmm.....

Next time, try GHB. Faster and more reliable.

I hope we upgrade our National receivers enough so we can drop Rudy, I mean Corcoran

Get that boy a pair of football cleats!

He was a 2024 draft pick so he should have 1 year left on his rookie deal.

I don't know if Ajou Ajou is a FA this year or not. But he would look real good in Bue and Gold. Really like his style of play and I think with a bit more experience can turn into a really good slot rec.
