Vince McMahon considers move to bring back the XFL
Colin Unger replied to wbbfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Same situation now as he had in Toronto after Ray went down. SJ Green to throw to but no quarterback. Some things never change with Marc Trestman. -
Who moves to slotback Darvin or Drew?

It's more than that. There is what he did in pre-season and in practice that led the coaching staff to keep him over Bennett even when Bennett seemed to have a great training camp. The last young QB this coaching staff believed in is now in the NFL on a 100k signing bonus. Winnipeg are the Grey Cup champs and I'm at the point where I'm willing to trust the GM and the coaching staff to make these evaluations. Calgary is an organization that I trust even more at this point in terms of evaluating young QB's who would be able to handle the opportunities to start in the future. They were able to evaluate starting material in a backup role with Arbuckle and Bo Levi Mitchell before him. In order to have long term viability our organization can't rely solely on picking up loose change at the quarterback position from other teams.

To me McGuire has a similar skillset to Colloras and Im glad that he's going to be learning under him this year rather than Matt Nichols. We want our QB's to aspire to be more than a game manager.

I guess at this point we should just wait for Bryon Bennet to be made available and then he can come in and be the number 3 QB and play special teams and maybe do some Streveler package type stuff. With Fajardo, Franklin, and Harker I don't see him making the Riders right now.

2019-20 Grey Cup Champs Off-season discussion.
Colin Unger replied to Wanna-B-Fanboy's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Its probably gapped up a bit this year because the league re-worked their agreement with TSN and the players have it worked into the collective bargaining agreement that they get a certain percentage of any new tv revenues. -
So another Taylor Loffler like situation?

Basically... Its something that will need to be figured out over time. But right now its like the league will offer the global players jobs just not good jobs. Very difficult for global's to win starting jobs when competing against so many americans.

Lapo continues to follow the mike O’Shea formula. Now he’s adding Winnipeg native running backs.
-
I’m expecting the Ticats to go back with Canadian running backs again next year. This move surprises me
-
He'd want to know where Charleston Hughes is at all times when on the road.
-
Maybe he signs with the Riders then?

Nice thing about Josh Johnson is he's an experienced defensive halfback. Im sold one Mike Jones as one of the corners and we can have a competition needing to find a safety or a corner. If we find a good safety Alexander can move back to corner.

Its been recently reported that CFL players who sign in the XFL are free to sign back with the CFL after the XFL championship game. I imagine there will be quite a few potential double dippers.

I wonder if Ciante Evans will try the XFL after having tried the AAF last season.

I feel like Jefferson had his mind made up a while ago. He just wanted to get a raptors game in.

Honestly I think we are fine with the receivers we've got so long as Zach can stay healthy... Id rather stick with the Grey Cup receiving core at this point and spend whatever we've got on defense.

Possibly Willie's most impressive stat is that he lead the league in pass knockdowns with 16. On the league's statistical PDF they only list 11 players on the pass knockdowns list. 10 of them are defensive backs and the other one is Willie Jefferson. He's a special talent.

The way I see it we still have some cap space. With Nevis on the way out that covers Willie's raise. Similar expenditure at quarterback. Rose and Fenner salaries gone. And then there was the big money we were able to pay to Chris Matthews. I'm hoping for at least one solid defensive back and then some form of icing on the cake.

Yeah I would see a good opportunity to win in Winnipeg and Hamilton regardless of Davis re-signing in Hamilton.

Box seats to a raptors game might be impressive if you are working some dead end job making 30k a year and its the one thrill you have in your life.

Signing Couture surprises me just because I wouldn’t have been surprised if he wanted to go to BC. And considering how well the offensive line performed in the playoffs without him this just surprises me. If everyone is healthy I don’t see how we can dress all the quality Canadian offensive lineman we have under contract. I guess Eli could potentially spend another year on the dev roster.

Maybe they are looking at adding TJ Jones as a starter and will need JFG as added depth with 3 Canadian starters.
