I'll throw in 2 sleeper picks, too. Jake Kelly. All he's done is succeed when we've had to go to him. He's shown more physicality than I'd ever suspect from his build and all the quickness/speed to excel. He's smart and a solid tackler. We have brought in a bunch of Imps to fight for BAs old spot, but I could see Kelly stealing it. And not just as a ratio guy, but legit winning it. Enock Makonzo. Say whaaaat? Well, He's a strong tackler and a good athlete. He can back up Kelly at S if he takes that job and Kramdi at sam. He can also rotate in at Wil. Our scheme could be very advantageous for him. This allowed him to play an inside wall spot downfield and enter the box to play the run. When Jones drafted him, he had him targeted as a guy who could fill a modern Wil role, exactly like we used Griffins last year. Except in our split field zone concept, this role has less demanding man cover requirements. He's not going to be an all-star, but he should be a high-floor mid-roster Canadian backup. Having a guy like him on the AR who can actually fill a role on the D vs guys who can just play teams will be big. It could allow us to go full IMP DL at times, and he's a good db for the run fits.

Now I know how all those kids drafted by the browns must feel. “Aww, do I suck?”

He's highly impactful on the number of posts on MBB but on the field...

The Bombers involvement in minor football has increased significantly since Miller took over. The Bomber Academy in winter and reviving the Blue & Gold game were both great decisions, as is supporting kids flag and putting their logo on all flag jerseys. I don’t know how much they put into the provincial teams, but it cost me approx $3k for my kid to play at the Canada Cup two years ago. The team might be more competitive if the price came down. I’d love to the see the Bombers/Football MB put more money into the provincial teams.

That's two straight games the Pylon has been scratched. Amazing! Shitty news about Pionk though!

I agree on Kelly...didnt include him as seen him as an already somewhat established guy...although limited in time here he has showed huge skill already and even higher upside....Love if he could grab that safety spot...he closes like a missile and has real good instincts already for a young guy...huge upside and we don't need a thumper at safety Totally forgot about Makonzo....big under radar signing...he showed real good at SAM before he got hurt as a rookie....better than our guy Kramdi and he still has immense upside...Kramdi I don't see anymore upside...and he isnt as athletically gifted as Makonzo either I'd like to see Kramdi is the versatile swiss army guy who can take reps behind both Kelley and Makonzo (if he back to 100 percent health) and be that huge depth piece who can also start if need be Griffin is the ace in hole I think and wonder what they do with him....I'd like to see him....or Parker at SAM....and whoever gets beat out can fill either corner or HB.....Both those guys have extreme athleticism for the roles and are actually guys who cover well and close on guys in space like a magnet...and are real good tacklers...Kramdi is horrible in coverage...gets lost in space and isnt a good open field tackler...he's fine in a scrum and crashing down in the box playing more of a spy/contain role.....but as a SAM....who should be one your better cover guys and tacklers and have greasy fluid hips to range around and flip his hips to cover a guy...and in that role you may be responsible for a teams #1 or 2 slot...he's just not that guy....he just isnt Go to any practice and when db's/lb's do techical work.... and watch Parker move...pivot...shift outta backpeddle to pursuit....smooth as smooth.....He's got that ability that Denmark had to move/cut/pivot at top speed and not have to gear down....then watch Kramdi.....and you will see my point...And it's not that I hate Kramdi and dont want him on the team....it's more his role...or what it should be...and his price tag for what he offers is a bit of a hinderance to us

High impact, or guys on Bombers who should be looked at as key Canadians to build around, and be front and center for securing/maintaining the foundation should be Lawson, Clercius and Wallace as guys who should take the next step....and will be key factors......to a lesser extent MCI who I hope is being coached and groomed to be a more utilized weapon in not only the heavy sets...Athleticism and metrics used in evaluating/combines he blows away pretty much any skilled position guy we have....hopefully we don't waste and ***** his progression as just a teamer guy and actually coach him along...guy could be real stud With Jarius here I see that as a real bonus for guys like Clercius..MCI and Logan...even to a lesser extent with Demski That 3down article was just a lazy piece with zero DD done for it...par for the course tho so shouldn't be surprising

Stats: 42-20-2 @ 45-17-4 Streaks: W1 @ W1 Last Ten: 8-2-0 @ 6-3-1 Injury Report: WPG - Pionk(week to week) DAL - Bichel(day to day), Hintz(out), Heiskanen(long term injured reserved), Sequin/Lundkvist(injured reserved)

“Big D” vs the best D. Less than 100 seats left (aside from scattered single seats) before it is declared a sellout.

Booch and WBBfan, well said....And why I fully agreed and was actually happy we didn't put a big dollar offer in Ford's direction. Yes he is an elite CDN, but the guys you mentioned and went into detail about IMO made him a luxury and not a need for us. Yes we more than likely lose a CDN passport in his spot but as you both described and I fully agree we still have very talented players with both passports that as a whole I think will be a better unit. If Kelly takes another step, if Parker is healthy, If Makonzo is healthy, if Griffen takes a step, If Kramdi fills some of teh "smarts" void Biggie provided...I get it that's a lot of if's but if you take a 1000ft view, we have a bunch of guys to compliment and move around...I really do believe we can see an overall better LB and DB crew then we had teh last couple years....

Yeah, excited about the type of player Kelly is and what he can become. Athletically viable Canadians, who are smart, and have that toughness are a great keystone to build around. Makonzo, kelly, and kramdi give us a great bit of utility on D with the Canadians. No more need for Lbers/dbs who are pylons, and DL who aren't even that. JY has a tremendous tool to throw out different packages this year. Its going to be great to see how he develops and uses them. Big fan of Griffin. I think he could adjust to play most any position, but is probably at his best inside. Should be a lock to take a starting spot this year. Forgot about parker, if he's 100% that's a big sleeper too. Guys like Makonzo, and Parker despite not being huge can bring a lot better tackling and physicality to the secondary this year.

Naw 3DNation is like the Browns, CFL.ca is more NY Giants. Umm, **** I think I insulted you again.

For sure, he was a favorite security blanket for Zach. But it seemed like Clercius was picking that up pretty quickly last year. very excited to see what he does with a season under his belt. He really surprised considering how raw was.

Risto sucks. Not worth the money and not worth a roster spot. Obviously not better than Pionk, but thanks for the laugh. Pionk is a plus player, yet he's on the ice for almost every goal according to you. Again, thanks for the laugh.

Griffins I think, will kick out and fill a full-time role left by Ford. We aren't likely to double shift S and Sam, especially with the level of turnover we have in experience. Kelly has given no reason to lack confidence in him. He's our best Canadian cover guy. Kramdi is likely best off at Sam. He's good at jumping backfield plays based on his read; he isn't athletic enough to do that from S, few guys are. He isn't strong at making downhill plays downfield at all. He's a wall player and isn't strong if he has to pick up a man in straight cover. S in our system especially demands a guy who can keep the top on the D, pick up on deep breaks, be quick laterally to get to spots, and make downhill plays. We don't need a hitter, and we don't need at ball hawk at S. Those are nice to have, but it's not really the fit we need. If anything, Holm would be a much better fit at S.

I blame Saturn for spending so much on Collaros. No money left for extra moons.

It's baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack https://tvline.com/news/ted-lasso-renewed-season-4-confirmed-jason-sudeikis-apple-1234867942/

sorry that you dont like to hea about a wasted spot on a guy not worthy of a spot....but 301 now lol

I think Miller grades out better than Fleury.

VERY glad Chevy didn't pick up Risto. I have watched him play since he got into the league and he has pretty much horrible in his own zone. He would have played third-pairing and he's not worth half of his AAV. Pionk is a +24. After 66 games he has 44 points which is one point less than RR has ever scored in a full season. We can't really say who is better in the playoffs because RR has never played a game in the NHL playoffs. To say that he has been on the ice for nearly every goal against is nothing but a lie.

Google rolling out Cast fix for 2nd-gen Chromecast and Chromecast Audio

We'll miss Woogie a LOT in the room, but in the field, I have high hopes for Clercius...

Jake Thomas - High Impact Canadian! https://www.cfl.ca/2025/03/11/3-high-impact-canadian-players-from-every-cfl-team/

Give them some credit, that will be accomplished by next Saturday.

I'm saying he's not worth the cap hit. I don't care how much room we have. Bring it somebody who is. He's been rumored to be coming here since he played in Bufflao. I'll say it again, he's not going to be traded here.

5.1 million per season makes zero sense. 100% chance we are not trading for him.

Hope not, I'd rather see Stanley play.
