Yeah and then ended up spending more on Micah. Only thing that worked out about that move is it weakened Calgary so we could run all over them in the playoffs!

I would be fine if the bombers went as high as 250k. More than that and id look at bringing in competition to push Alex McCallister and spend the money on a different position like WR1.

Free Agency Negotiating Window
Colin Unger replied to Pete Catan's Ghost's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Im not sure that that's not preferable. I'd rather have one big super day with all the signings. If its now going to be a situation where there are many signings in the first couple hours TSN could do a broadcast and know that they will have a lot to talk about. There's nothing worse then an NHL trade deadline broadcast with nothing but tumbleweed. -

Who is the top receiver in free agency?
Colin Unger replied to BBlink's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
My understanding was the Pipkin battled injuries and has a lot less CFL experience than Adams in terms of picking up a new system. If certain better options aren't available I would like to pick up Pipkin to compete with McGuire and develop both of them. -

A.J. Jefferson was significantly better
-
I would think they would have money for both. MBT will end up the backup somewhere so I would imagine that if Toronto wouldn't have money for him as their back then who would? I would imagine the team who have discount starting qb's would be the most likely to sign MBT.

Yeah there would be no positive emotions surrounding the Muama name for me
-
On an emotional level i was hoping we went after Jonathan Rose to replace his brother. But really I'd be happy with the addition of any top notch corner.

True but Winnipeg spreads it around quite a bit already. Could we afford to have the highest paid receiver in the league (walker), the highest paid defensive end, and the highest paid linebacker? -

The way I view it we replaced that spending with the Collaros deal. -

I agree. But probably too early to pounce on him. I feel like a lot hinges on the status of Willie Jefferson. If he's not coming back would like to see us looking to spend up at WR1. -
Who is the top receiver in free agency?
Colin Unger replied to BBlink's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
He looked pretty good in 2018 last year he did not look so good coming off injuries. Im looking at him as a guy that needs some development time but has some raw tools. I think he would be good as a 3rd down short yardage type of qb and if Zach suffers an injury he could serve as McGuire's backup and would already have a handle on the offense. -

Id sooner good with McGuire and Bennett too.. McGuire is a lock to come back. But if Bennet and MBT are not an option and we are looking at Dom Davis, Jennings, Pipkin. I'd go with the upside that Pipkin offers. -

As one of our 3 qbs. He’s got two years experience in the league and tremendous athletic ability. -

Antonio Pipkin is now available. Would love to see the bombers go after him. -

I view them as guys who have the potential to develop into starters. Assuming D Adams is back i think our starting receiving core is set. Grant, Nelson, Whitehead, and other will compete to be next man up. I see the starting receiving core as being Demski, Lawler, Bailey, Adams, and Wolitarsky right now. Its not an area i'd be spending cap money on. If D Adams doesn't come back that changes things a bit. If we are going to spend on a receiver Id like to see us go after TJ Jones to potentially give us another Canadian starter. -
I tend to agree with you. The problem with Streveler in the NFL is his style of running. He isn't smooth like Damon Allen. He's very fast and very strong. In the NFL the openings are smaller and the players are bigger. In a very specific role as a 4th and short QB he might be able to help some teams. Not sure he will be able to do much more than that in the NFL.

Tre is giving at least a 10 yard cushion and still gets burnt by Adams with help over the top. Adams is a legit WR1 with Zach at the helm. -

He lit up Tre "Biggest NFL deal Since Cameron Wake" Roberson pretty good in the West Semi. He's still got ability and with Zach throwing the ball Id expect him to have a good season with us. -

Luke Tasker might be a good fit for us with the great seasons he had playing together with Zach. I feel like we are fine at receiver this year though. The last two years we signed vets who ended up being busts. We have found some pretty good young receivers in Lawler, Bailey, Grant, and Whitehead. Who knows what level of talent we bring in to camp to compete. I would sooner spend money on a backup qb and a corner like Jonathan Rose. -
I kind of doubt there will be no interest. I don’t think he would take the backup job in Winnipeg unless there was literally no interest in him. I think he ends up either a starter or in a position to compete with a qb like MBT for the job.
-
That’s true. However there’s people who say every year we are going to win the Grey Cup. At some point we gotta start trusting current management and coaching staff to know what they have in an up and coming qb.
-
You would think there would be some level of understand in Nichols that Collaros literally won the Grey Cup as the starting QB. Its not like Nichols didn't have opportunities in previous years. Last year it wouldn't have taken much of a game at the QB position for us to get past Calgary but we didn't get a whole lot in the West final.
