2021/22 - CFL Offseason - Non-Back-to-Back Grey Cup Champion Thread
wbbfan replied to JCon's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Not to mention Flanders. Dedmon looked good in limited reps on offense so logically he was never used again. Plop in ott Looked like pure hubris. Like he thought these old guys and his system would churn out a bombers 2.0 squad. No good league wide scouting and didn't even use guys he had well. No question he has the potential. Every year he doesn't become the guy makes his chances of fulfilling that potential more remote. If I was him I'd look for a good back up spot. Here Montreal or Hamilton. Go into the year as a back up prepared to see action at some point and have the pieces around you to succeed. -
Just about every qb is a fa right now. I think Reilly and blm are the only ones under contract. I expect this to be a crazy off season with lots of qb turn over. Harris back to ott to play with plop would be hilarious. Less funny would be the cats stealing back collaros while we grab Evans. Seriously though I think Masoli should be the riders primary focus. He'd fit well in ott too. I think Harris could go back to tor. Evans is the most interesting though. Highest upside young but man he needs a run game and ol. Evans to tor with half of the free agent ol would be a good fit.

I think younger is our highest priority ast to retain. If He's patient he will be our DC one day. He might be able to get a DC job this year but with Jones claybrooks and possibly Glen Young kicking around idk if he will be a prime target for other teams. It sure would be great if Jones didn't get a hc gig for 2022 in the cfl. That guys toxic af. I bet he will end up in the xfl and of usfl. Really glad coach o is staying with the Cats. That's great for the league. I expect to lose goveia to another team this year. And imo he's the single most deserving guy who isn't a gm right now. -

That's previous centuries thinking at best. 2 new leagues 40 percent increase in nfl pr money and sizes going up. And you want to try and hold the players feet over the coals. Ambrosie isn't much of a brain trust but thankfully even he has more between his ears than your jack kevorkian suicide solution. -

Why the hell would players agree to a 2 year none guaranteed deal. Seriously they just took massive reductions in salary this year. The usfl and xfl are about the start up. If you do that the cfl will be gone in a couple years. -

And guaranteed money fixed. It's a pretty terrible situation for them. The cfl has a short off season coming up will need a new cba that hopefully fixes contracts and they think they have time to fully review all of the unique rules for the cfl. Crazy. -

I think you're right. But I don't think he's coming into camp as the no2. I think he will battle for 3rd. I think we see 5 qbs in Tc unless we find an experienced back up. -

To be fair if you're gonna have a mancrush you could do a lot worse than strevy. That said no one could ever come between the bromance of him and woli. They were like Bill and Ted. Sheed and lucky must've been real interesting roommates. Those are two crazy high energy positive guys. -

If you're bored one day that sounds like a great off season thread. Spergeon Wynn tee Martin Giovanni carmazzi all picked before Brady. Jarious Jackson shortly after. Bishop was picked in 99 the year before. In Bradys rookie year he carried a clip board for bishop. I think he's confusing upset with mildly amused. We just won the gc no one in bomber land is upset. I don't think biased rider media angers any bomber fans. It's more laughable stuff. -
Idk how desjarlais is getting no love on those all star lists.

He was a good dude. Really electric athlete but way too raw. Got any other interesting deep cut jerseys? Way back in the Taman era Canadian qb and tcf over achiever Tommy Dennisons dad was on the forum. Iirc he melted down when his kid was cut. To be fair he did look good in limited reps with 5 stringers but ni qbs were brought in to protect more valuable arms. -

Part of me wishes half of what he said was true and he was just off to steal cable while working on top secret crap ranting to his hnic family about how he got banned on mbb. I almost regret missing all the crazy stuff in general thread this year. A big part of making this year better as a bomber fan was Ed Tait and bauming. We all know the media coverage on the Bombers is an old boys club. They spend more time chatting than reporting on camp and practice. Taits pieces are always great and bauming added a lot to fill the gap. Plus the around the league bit on 3dn. Bomberfanu571 or what not. Idr his name I think it had a 9 in it. Starting a podcast about the Bombers and seemed to get some traction. I saw a tweet shout out from Tait about it on the ticker. That's pretty cool. Like seeing people fill the gap. When he first started being a new guy i was pretty leery about him. Thought maybe it was polarlusablue et al. Even though I haven't listened to it I respect and appreciate a guy stepping up to fill that void and create content for bomber fans. -

Cody Fajardo disagree reacted to this post. Oakman and Alford are worlds better than any rider. I'd take oakman in my sleep. Don't care who is on the roster or where he plays. You take that guy with out question. Oakman and stove would be the best dt tandem in the league in the last 2 decades. I'm a huge Jeffcoat fan but between the two I'd take Oakman at the same money. Bene was great. I'm blue I'm gold I'm really fricken cold lol Plops wife though idk if that was confirmed. But another player wife was on here and had a real meltdown too. A few pr guys as well. Hugh Smith a tiny wr with insane speed and no hands. Too bad I bet willy would be fantastic on here. He's kinda like the modern rod hill. -

Bond in at g and hardrick moving to tackle. The first 5 games here for Harris he was averaging just over 10 carries a game. 3 of those games he had 1.6 2.4 and 2.8 yards per carry. 206 yards rushing in 5 game 41 per game. The next 3 games had his first 20 carry game first 2 100 yard games and one more tough day running. The Bond hardrick changes took us from a struggling ol to the start of a great ol. Id compare that to the day willy came and biggie and the return of ba and moving him to s. The mafia has shown a great knack for taking vets to another level. -

He can come back if he quarantines. He could also stay or get vaccinated. I hope he gets the shot. I'm pretty sure he has dual citizenship. Desjarlais is a great guard. He's still pretty young with lots of prime left. Idr the last time a 24 year old dominated on the ol. I think size will hurt him in the nfl but I wouldn't be surprised if he gets a look. He deserves it. I have a hard time paying elite money to a guard. Especially with Eli and gray in the wings. But desjarlais could be the best guard in the league for the next 10 years. He's the only guard in the league I'd give tackle money to. If desjarlais leaves for the nfl or more money or if Bryant or Neufeld retires I think it becomes a tc battle between Richmond and starting 4 ni ol. -

They should keep Evans but they won't. I actually think they might blow it up. I bet they go hard after collaros. Missing on him I think they go in a whole other direction. If they keep one it'd be Masoli but I think Hamilton is getting blown up. -

Couple questions in my mind for us this off season. I love Jeffcoat but I'm sure he can make more money elsewhere. If he goes do we replace him with Kongbo? In rotation kongbo didn't light it up. But he did get a bunch of pressures and made some good run stops. After his start late though he was a beast. If Thomas doesn't retire Sayles Jake and stove is a great rotation. Lawler could be nfl bound. If not he's gotta be back. Do we go after lucky though he would fit great here. I feel like this is when some thing gives on the ol. I hope we don't lose Eli or gray. We gotta do some thing at back up qb. Brown looked like he never touched a football before. McGuire can't be a project forever and I don't want us to expect him to be no2. Around the league qbing is pretty shakey right now. If I had to rank the top 5 qbs it'd be pretty hard especially after collaros. The league needs a regular tc and pre season this year. Young qbs need those reps soo bad. -
2021 Grey Cup GDT - Bombers vs. Tiger-Cats
wbbfan replied to TrueBlue4ever's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Go look at the wrs coming back to the ball. Over the shoulders only happened inside of 20 Ish yards down field. Look at any play off game highlight and it's clear. They break off and come back. You can over come having a smaller arm if you get it out fast. Nichols was never a guy who could hit 30 or 40 yard over the shoulder moon shoots. His 20 to 40s were timing based. Which Fajardo couldn't do in his wildest dreams. Fajardo relies on 10 yard versions on slants. -
100 percent on purpose. The way he's looking at kyrie and bumps it right too him. It's insane. That's the selfless smart tough football that defines the dark side. Bearpants is dead on. That play perfectly demonstrates winnipeg football.

Nichols never had the arm to put deep balls over the shoulder guys always had to come back to the ball. But he could get it there. Fajardo makes 20 plus yard throws look like 80 yard field goal attempts. And Nichols always played his best in big games. Fajardo is an over hyped Nealon Greene. Hes not even a poor man's Kerry Joseph on his best day. At first when I heard that I thought it was crazy. Then I thought it was just what mos does. And the Canadian Mafia. -
I had hoped we'd honor Bob first game next year when we raise the banner. Drown him in cheers.

If we 3 peat in Regina next year oh my that'd be the best thing ever.
