no kidding it was boring more effort was put into the Halftime show. And don't get me started on all the pro A.I. ads

Bad bunny was the most entertaining part by far. What a boring game. The Super Bowl generally is terrible tho. I just think it’s funny that with 7 minutes left in quarter 1, collingsworth is like If the patriots don’t make a first down here this could be the game. Cuz Seattle was about to make it 9 0. Imagine hearing that in the cfl lol.

I think Unless he shows he can pass the ball this camp he’s cut.

I was feeling tired. Asked my wife to wake me up when the halftime show was over. That was quite a defensive display by the Seahawks last night. If you like defensive football, then this was the game for you. Denver would have been a better matchup for the Seahawks. Love seeing the Patriots lose. I hate that team.

Super Bowl was a bit of a snoozer for me. The first half was boring as could be. 2nd half was better. I'm glad Seattle won, the Pats were gifted an easy schedule this season and had an easy play off run barely squeaking by a QB who had thrown zero passes this season. The half time show looked so cheap this year? Usually they have eloborate sets and big dance numbers and this felt very very cheap. Also a tonne of lip synching and the music itself was a big meh. It felt like I was listening to a DJ at the pool bar when I'm in Mexico lol. It didn't feel like a big show to me.

He'd only be here for a year so no harm.

So we’ve given up on Terry Wilson being able to do things other than plunge forward for one yard?

Don't forget Elgersma is also a possibility. Walters believes they might get more info on by the end of the month when NFL teams are done signing futures contracts.

You’ll be glad to be reminded he agreed to terms with Ottawa

MBT would be the only guy worth bringing in but just doesn't seem like a FIFO guy.

Robustelli went to Edmonton. And I'm really doubting the bombers are major players after what they've already done. Sounds like they might grab some cheaper smaller pieces, but nothing major...

I have a bad feeling that we will end up bringing in mayor McCheese just to spite all the trash we’ve talked about him lol

Wrs, I believe these are what’s left: Rambo, bridges, daniel’s, henry, addison, rhymes, gittens and robustelli. Of those guys, rambo, robustelli, and bridges would be great combinations of value and fit. Rhymes and Gittens are likely out side of our price range. Rambo is my favorite of those 3, but who ever will come in to fight for a spot and do the dirty stuff at a good price would be best. For pass rushers i’m including 40 ends, 3-4 ends and 3techs. We have the coaching staff and pieces to move guys around and capitalize on disruption from any where. Shane ray is the coveted guy remaining, probably out of our price too. Cox from the riders is very under valued imo, Lanier could flourish is more limited reps he might help flip our DLs soft personality and push our culture there, Mauldin is a reclamation project but a guy who can elevate camp as a mercenary needing to take a job. Of those guys, I’d really like cox, mauldin or lanier. Cox is the best player to step in for sure. Onyenka would be a real nice depth/teams fit, especially if we don’t manage to draft some one who can play. We could also go and look at the guys from the past 2 years drafts and haven’t gotten a chance or enough reps. We’ve had a couple good trades sending picks for guys like that. For guys like that, Ojo, brubacher, okpoko, Newell, harris, hubert, hergot, ageli, or von muehldorfer. Some of those guys are teams dudes who you need to polish into limited rep use. Some are guys who can get after the qb in limited reps, but you should polish into more useful teams/back end roster guys. Of those I like Newell, Brubacher, Von muehldorfer and silas hubert. Our dl is soo thin, we need talent, especially canadian talent. We have a starter and no guy who is a starter if he goes down.

Yeah I'm not sure either. They will likely take one of Artopeous and Wilson and one of Thorne and Perkins. I can't imagine they will start the year with Collaros and no CFL experience behind him. My guess it will be TD Terry running short yardage and Perkins waiting in the wings.

For backup qb MBT. For receiver Kurleigh Gittens Jr.

@wbbfan , who do you like for pass rushers and WRs?

So for the final phase of free agency, ideally we get a vet qb, imp wr, and pass rusher or two. The qb group is ugly, pass rusher group has some upside but lots of question marks, wr group has some solid gambles for depth too.

And Canada fails to make the Podium on Day 2 of the competition

Did Edmonton announce it or did the league? Nothing on the L's website about it so maybe the league put it out there for clarity since rights transfers are rare. Edit - just saw Hervey's statement. Said it was an attempt to do right by the player and other clubs and let them get going on things without needlessly holding up the process. The website is not completely up to date. They signed a 6'6 DL named Michael Fletcher the other day but he's not listed so there's definitely people missing. He was signed before Ceresna was made official yet he's on there so it's a bit random.

This maybe should be in the Grim Reaper thread but since it's CFL related, I thought I'd post it here. Former CFL player Barry Wilburn died yesterday in Memphis in a house fire. Wilburn was 62 years of age. Wilburn played for 3 CFL teams during his time in canada. The Saskatchewan Roughriders, BC Lions & Winnipeg Blue Bombers (in 1999). He also played for Washington & the Philadelphia Eagles. What a horrible way to go. Condolences to his family, friends & former teammtes.

The players contracts are up so I don't think any bonuses would be forthcoming from any expired contracts.

Yeah, Walters was really killing it early & then suddenly it was over. I was hoping for one or two more signings on the DL & that may happen yet. there still are some receivers out there like Gittens we sure could use. Surprised there haven't been any more announcements. maybe the second round of secondary signings will happen after the 9th when the negotiation window closes. I guess some free agents also know they'll sign somewhere & are weighing offers.

according to the Bombers site... the only DL at 6'7 is Willie... unless there are some guys not listed yet... are you reinventing the wheel... or just making the three LB positions the way they were 15 years ago? I hate to be a stickler... but this is clearly a top 7 😉 I'll go: Stan, Biggie, Collaros, Harris, Yoshi... had to make a few tough decisions to follow the rules (Jeffcoat and Willie, for example)...

Sucks about Vonn......
