2022 Off Season - Back 2 Back Champs Edition
wbbfan replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Not with him in the locker room. He'd be fifo'd out the door soo fast his head would spin. With that limited qb ability, yes. Last years bomber team could win the cup with streveler. -

Thats true, but it starts with money. Those teams could've paid heavily for Williams service and built around him. Like we did with bryant. But its like they didnt even try to build the OLs. Just sign more wrs! -

Dru brown was one of the worst qbs I've ever seen in blue and gold. Other guys can be in that tier, but I dont think any one was worse. -

At this point Faj is more locked into his limitations, Prukop could grow into more. Though I'd say his upside is limited, but I think his ability to fulfill his potential here is much higher because of the OL and team around him that booch referred to. He's much better than hall/brink based on a similar ability to throw but a whole lot more athleticism. I am hoping for a big rookie to come in and be the future guy. Or a return of strevy. -

Wonder if we consider drafting Tre Ford at qb. He seems like the most draftable NI qb in a heck of a long time. -

Right? Teams have all been taking to the plop style offense, running more, the bend but dont break D, you name it. But nope no one wants to go out and over pay to build a great OL. Its crazy. -

Jones gonna make his stars all play both ways. I'll never understand how BC and EDM could go to 300k on lawler (who I think very highly of) but not ucambre williams. Bad teams making bad decisions giving out bad contracts. -

Thats a stretch by lalji. Vaj was academically in eligible at the time of transfer and wasn't able to play till after dakota. Had he been eligible earlier, prukop would've been on the bench, vaj was handily ahead of him. Both are small school athletic big sky transfers to oregon. But vaj shined in oregon and prukop was a bust. -

No, but a system could be run with streveler that would be good enough to win imo. It just would require an OC to cater to his skill set. Also, Edm has 3 better qbs on their roster right now. We gotta be able to find some one who is atleast able to develop into a blue chip prospect. -

He's a poor mans fajardo. Extremely athletic and physically tough. Much more of a natural scrambler, doenst rely on the one move he can make more happen with his legs. Has a strong enough arm to throw down field, but not a special arm by any means. Doesnt have particularly good zip, touch, or release. He's an awful lot better than dru brown, and in the same skill set / limitation. I hope we get a better no2 (which I doubt) or a much better developmental prospect for camp. But if not, I'd say he's better than mcguire showed last year. But Mcguire had a lot more arm talent. Fun fact, he was team mates with charles nelson in oregon. -

Yeah just strikes me as odd that ott went with powell and not harris. Tor is just desperate. I do like the jagared davis pick up but not much else. My way too early draft grades would be, OTT A+. They did as best as they could. Wpg A. Resigned the key FAs, enough to be favorites again. Stamps B+. Really like the judge pick up, Had some loses but were a young team moving forward. Mtl B. Really limited their loses, locked up young guys, and only team to go out and get cheap vet qb depth. Other wise secondary and mennard hits are hard. BC C-. Not crazy about their qbing, but finally filled some dl gaps and kept lucky. got a little spend crazy in the secondary. Ham C-. They seemed as flat in the FA period as they did in the 19 grey cup. Seems like they just lost guys and didnt add. Ssk C-. Addition by subtraction with a couple loses. Duke was a big over pay but they had to, moncrief was a good get. Maybe they should be higher. Tor D+, Swung for the fences a lot, but only got 1 gooder in davis. They have 2 really good imp rbs and couldnt manage to run well or consistently and they dont have the NI back up to start him. Banks is toast. Edm wtF- Sigh, return of duron carter and jones as a hc/gm. Wouldve won free agency in 2012. -

Thats true, and they got the best OL on the market once FA started. I think they've done the best job of any team in FA. But its gonna take a lot to dig out of that hole. Just as important as the FA grade will be the draft. If they can hit a guy who has an impact right away. The bombers success has been built on drafting, and developing. It's been off set with some tremendous off season pick ups, but the core of the team is guys who came into the league with the bombers. Any one else find it interesting that TO opened up the check book for harris, but ott, despite plops success with harris for soo long didnt? -

It sounds positive in the light of their production last year, but that was plops team. His playbook and his players. And Masoli is a poor mans kevin glenn. He's never been able to maintain his job on a contender. They will be better than last year, no question. They couldn't have added much more in free agency either. They are gonna go from a terrible team that lost by a lot every week, to a fringe team that loses by a little almost every week. Mid to late next year is the soonest they will turn the page and be a solid team imo. They went from being a team that was a year away from being a year away, to a team thats a year away from being good. I look at their roster and I see 0 NIs that would start on our team. A couple would be rotational pieces like boateng, but none would be close to starting here. I see a starting DL that combined for about 11 sacks last year. I still see an OL with less games than bryant + any other bomber ol, and that combine for less starts than 3 of our ol individually. And I still see a check down offense with out an elite rb to carry it. They won't win games on the line of scrimmage, they wont create enough pressure to win games on D, they wont stretch the field to make up with fast scoring, and they wont dominate with the run game. After one of the worst all time seasons, any thing different sounds like its a positive. -

Ready to play as players is one thing. Ready to perform as a cohesive unit is a whole other thing. That OL especially is gonna struggle early. -

100%. They are probably going to have 4 new starting OL, a new qb, 3 wrs half the DL and secondary. Early is the time to play them. And yes, its still a plop lead masoli team. we know how to beat that and excel at it. -

Championship teams and dynasty teams very seldom win free agency. The only position I have concerns about right now is kicker. -

Ever since the end of the 19 gc the cfl media was pushing that the cats under achieved and that 21 was their year. Lots of pundits picked us for 2nd or 3rd in the west and virtually none had any one above hammy. Snafu -

Nelson was signed a week maybe 2 ago. Never been soo happy to have some one poached from our team. The rbs get bj Cunningham too. They've made some really good moves. -

We are perfectly fine. You'll never see a team in a better position to replace a hof starting ni rb and stay ni at the position. Young guys aren't consistent. And our offense in general suffered poor play calling injuries and drops in those early Brady starts. If buck can figure out how to use the backs to play off each other our running game in 2022 will be better than 2021. As much credit as collaros gets for leading our wrs to success and he does our ol deserves credit for the run success. Basically any pro imp rb would run for more than 1000 with out breaking a sweat behind our ol. -
