Right but at this point. The worries have been proven to be unfounded. However, regardless of who your starting qb is you need to have a good backup in the CFL. You might get lucky one season and have no injuries from your starter but you just never know.

Because of the timing and because the Riders are already paying up for two quarterbacks. But i suppose I can't be 100% sure he's referring to the bombers.

Sure Walter's was trying to get Glenn for cheap (who wouldn't). However, since they didn't pony up and match or surpass the Edmonton offer I think there's more too this then simply trying to get Glenn for cheap. LaPolice seems to really value having a dynamic short yardage unit and I just don't think that Kevin Glenn is well suited to running that package. He's not big or tall and he's never been fast. With Durant he can likely run that package really well. So when you break it down the bombers can afford to pay Durant more since he can do the job of Glenn and Lefevour. Had we signed Glenn we may have needed to pay Lefevour considerably more than a rookie will cost us to be our 3rd string quarterback.

Between our kicker and our backup qb we might really be short changing our starting lineup. But I personally feel it is worth it.

I'm thinking in terms of how much athleticism they have at this stage of their careers. But yah the smart money is on Durant. If JS shows enough promise maybe we just let him sit for a year as the third stringer.

Josh Straughan has upside in this role as well.

I'm very happy with this move. You want to be in a situation where you're fully confident in your backup qb so you don't feel pressured to play a taped together Nichols out of desperation. I have confidence in Durant playing under Lapo with his all time favorite target in the receiving core. My only disappointment is we likely will have to go with a cheap 3rd string QB as a result. I really liked the work that Dan LeFevour did in short yardage last season. It's likely only a matter of time before Dom Davis is released. Feel bad for the guy but you know... it's a business.

Harris, Nuefeld, Chung, Goosen, NI Receiver, Ekakatie/Thomas, Loffler.... That's 7.

As much as I like Bond he’s gonna be pricey and it’s simply time for us to go with 3 Canadians on the offensive line. We have Neufeld who can take the pressure off Couture but Couture should be ready. We also have Spooner coming back as a second year guy and will likely continue to draft and develop offensive lineman. You don’t make the comittment we made to drafting and developing offensive lineman to start 2 Canadians there long term.

My problem with Davis is that he already had a rap as guy who gave up on his reads too quickly and threw to his check down too often. When he played this year he seemed to really struggle with reading defenses. Dave Dickenson struggled in his first game but he didn’t have a bad rap before the stamps signed him.

It’s just that I was referring to Davis looking shaky not Durant. I’m all in on Durant coming here.

The problem was that he looked incredibly shaky. It would be one thing if he looked confident out there but for whatever reason the offense was stalling. However, that wasn’t the case.

He’s already shown enough upside considering it was just 3rd round pick we gave up. We’ve continually drafted worse receivers higher up than that.

Spooner has a long long way to go. He’s considered a major project at this point. If Gray come up here within the next couple of years I wouldn’t be surprised if Spooner doesn’t ever start a game for us.

Even the first round can be a crapshoot in the cfl. Overall it’s about acquiring depth and some prototypical CFL starters and the odd genius pick turns into a ratio breaker. We’ve acquired plenty of all three since Walters took over. I’ve got zero complaints when looking at the macro of his drafting.

Wait a minute. Are people actually complaining about Walter’s drafting?

Not surprised he took the shot at making some money. He is down there to try and make it immediealty. If that doesn’t work for him quickly he’ll likely come home and study while playing. He’s not playing the waiting game and taking his shot.

The outcome on this play was a key moment and the missed offside call on Edmonton were turning points. But I’m more concerned about correcting the correctinle issues. We need to fire Hall and replace him with Noel Thorpe. We need our defense to become the strength on this team not the weakness. That will make a few key outcomes during the game a moot point.

I can’t believe Hall still has a job. This should have been one of those knee jerk reaction firings. He should be gone already!

Hall needs to be gone this off-season. We need somebody who doesn’t just ask a player to take on blocks. We need a defensive coordinator who asks his players to beat blocks!

I would think that a deal similar to the one Westerman got would be fair. To me it's logical we sign Mulumba and let Westerman hit the market as he's going to be a free-agent and getting older (takes too many penalties). Its possible that Mulumba's agent is asking for a rediculous offer. Like Ted Laurant money or something like that. In that case we should trade his right to the highest bidder and try and re-sign Westerman.

I sure hope Winnipeg brings back khalil bass now that he's been released from Ottawa.

I'll always struggle with that with my ADD. I'm always in a rush for no reason

Good riddens to that site and the ahole who ran it!!!!

Cap space move for Mulumba lol
