Former Bombers in NFL (and spring leagues) news
wbbfan replied to WinnipegGordo's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I'd rather see him in more game action, but that would mean losing games. I don't want to get rid of him, but I also don't think he ends up being an impact qb. Still seems all tools no intangibles. I would keep an older qb on the roster because even older and injured they both provide more value. I think I was duped by a couple of cut projection lists, actually, my bad. -

I’d try to get strev or chase onto the ir. strev has some value around the league and I’d try to trade him before cutting. You could cut chase and have him back in next years tc. but i think elgersma needs more involvement than pr. Strev can win a game, ugly or other wise, in a pinch when starting. I don’t think wilson can. so if i really had to choose right now, It’d be wilson. -

elgersma also cut. might make the pr, though clifford knows the system. -
Blue Bombers - 2025 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
wbbfan replied to Atomic's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
honestly idk. the ldc/bib is heavily skewed towards a split. the only firm statement i see is if some one sweeps. other wise i expect us to be in a similar position in 3 weeks. Id say we have a 80% chance of being 1-2, a 5%chance of going 0-3, a 5% chance of 3-0 and a 10% chance of 2-1. 7 teams are with in 3 games right now. if we go 0fer we are still in the play off picture. if one of the 3 win teams goes 0 fer their season is over. if the riders go 0 fer they still are in the hunt for a home play off game. -

serviceable is a far cry from top tier, and still we don’t have the ability to add a bunch of players mid season. how would you retool mid season? placing each year isn’t really to do with a mid season retool or an off season one either -

they did some player appearance things at fsu as soon as nil came in. guys like wilson made 170-200 bucks an hour. i’d bet he made in the 20-30k range, sounds like they worked it pretty well for the early days. Since the cap went up 500k, and we likely came in under the previous cap plus have 6game savings, we should have a pretty good nut to offer wilson. which makes me wonder 1, what’s he worth to get up asap? and what would it take? 200k for 2 years with 100k upfront? with the standard agreement that he can work out and if an nfl team wants to sign him in the off season we let him go. It’s high value for a one year guy, but i think that’d be what it takes to move him quickly. -

off season sure you can rebuild in one year, if you can add a top tier qb. mid season? where do you find talent mid season in this era? -

Even healthy post injury, can't remotely expect him to be the same guy. -

he isn’t that calibre either though. until he comes back and finds that level of sustained play, he’s damaged goods. -

Not only did we pick the worst of the bunch of wrs available, and give up the best wr on the market, we actually made the guys we took in worse. I like Sterns, he's a gutsy little guy with tons of effort. Doesn't have the talent or athleticism of Dressler, but he's a good guy to have as the last imp in your starting rotation of wrs. The problem is, every one is the complementary guy, and they all seem to be waiting for some one else to be Kenny lawler. Demski has stepped his game up a good level this year, but he's taken a hell of a battering here and is now banged up. And our offence isn't designed around demskis tool set. We aren't set up for catch and run down field stuff. -

even going back to last year with wheatfall, he was boom or bust. As a step forward year 2 guy, it's not likely he takes another big step forward. Not impossible, but far from likely. He's a valuable guy, but he's the guy you need a specific set of assets around him to help him perform. He needs a no1 guy to pull the D, and some one of the unit who stretches deep so he only faces loose 1on1 cover. -

maas sounds like he’s copied a lot out of mos coaching play book. hes matured a ton from his earlier days as a coach -
1 brady. ofc carried the team today. 25-210 yards 2 zach. protected the ball, got it out fast and made good decisions couple tough throws 3 cam allen. some good cover, couple great hits separated wrs from balls which changes how teams can attack you. hh sterns bone jarring catch over the middle block of the game to strevy as a wr lead blocking for brady had a good edge seal crappy honker to that stupid ass siren dunce caps to lawson jr, form tackling on d, hogan honorable mention to strevy for doing a lot in light of injuries, wallace, wilson in short yardage, jones, and wj Unsung hero award to Person. he didn’t record a stat, but he tipped holms pick and had atleast 5 key pressures plus a couple hits. bonus points to having lapo in the booth. he’s soo damn good and improves the quality of life watching games by a ton

yep and that not a knock against this kid. morgan is a gooder. but a rookie shouldn’t be this effective against your d when you’ve prepared for him. -
