We are definitely an older defense so injuries are a concern, but we did have some bad injury luck last year and still led the league in points against. We managed that with important guys suffering season ending injuries and/or playing hurt for much of the year. Our linebacking corps was generally a mess for most of the year with the season ending injury to Wilson, the so-so play of Clements(and then he got hurt for a good chunk of the year), and Bighill playing hurt and dropping back more to make up for loss of Alexander. With Wilson + Bighill healthy and Darby back i expect much better play from our ‘backers. The d-line for sure suffered from the Stove effect. That guy is a beast and diference maker making everyone around him better. Sayles had his moments but was overpaid in free agency for what he brings IMO. He did leave a hole however. I like Ricky Walker so we’ll see what he can do in the competition with other DT’s Walters will surely bring to camp. He did find Stove so we’ll see what he can find. The d-line will for sure be a question mark going into training camp. The two Jeffs are still elite ends but are into their 30’s so keeping them fresh and healthy should be a priority. Walters didnt add anyone during free agency so itll be interesting to see what unfolds. Maybe Kongbo comes back?? The secondary i have high hopes for, especially with Alexander healthy to start the season. Nichols is elite and Houston was excellent before his injury. I liked what i saw from Lawrence in his brief time here, and Parker looked good for a rookie. Rose needs to find his game and have a better year. If he can get back to even 75% of his 2019 self we’ll be looking good. My glass is generally half empty and obviously injuries can derail any season, but with some better luck i think our D will be just fine. And even if they take a step back who cares!?!? Were gonna be putting up 50 a game with our insane Tecmo Bowl like offense!!

I dont find it boring at all! I find it hilarious and boner inducing(thats for you TrueBlue4ever).

The Comment about the defense surprises me. I dont think we have a top tier D, but i still feel that we have a good/decent defense. I agree that the secondary is a work in progress, and Rose needs to step it up and have a bounce back season.

I'd like to know what the plan is at DT after letting Sayles walk. Are they just going to bring in a bunch of Americans and let them battle it out for the starting spot? The two Jeffs were much more dangerous when they had a proven stud in the middle(Stove) eating up blocks.

For Zach Collaros: After realizing your receiving corps this season is going to be Lawler/Schoen/Bailey/Demski/Wolitarsky, how long did it take for your erection to subside?

Not sure if they can bring in as much competition like they did with the DB's last year. The food budget alone would be enormous.

Man i miss that place. Shut down for good i believe.

Truly a unicorn in todays professional sports.....

Yay Sheed! F Bluto!

Odds to win the Grey Cup: Blue Bombers favourites, Argos not far behind | TheRecord.com LOL @BC

Yeah, the way money is being thrown at receivers this offseason ill bet Bailey could have gotten in the 175K range. Safe to say he didnt get that much to stay.

Kyle Walters walking into Bombers HQ today

Seriously though, that receiving corps..... Collaros right now......

Dream come true! He's going to wish he stayed asleep.

Very surprised and happy! Hated the thought of him in another jersey. Thats a lot of mouths to feed for Zach!

A metric ton

I know they did pay him a pretty penny last season. IIRC Walters was open to bringing him back but the Elks overpaid him(surprise, surprise).

Elks sign three, including Canadian kicker/punter Michael Domagala - 3DownNation Sounds like theyre moving on from Castillo? Maybe a reunion with the Bombers?

Britton Gray @BrittonGray Trevor Harris says he told his wife back in 2015 he would love to be the quarterback of the #Riders. "This is a dream come true." #CFL Dream? More like a nightmare.

Lawler as well. Demski I would imagine Collaros probably could have gotten more $$$ Willie J too.

I think youre underestimating the whole FIFO thing Mike. Its really been the catalyst for our turnaround. Its established a group of team first players that value winning more than individual stats. A bunch of guys who truly love each-other and would go headfirst into a wall for their teammate and coach. You dont think these players feel a privilege/pride to play on this team? We know for a fact a lot of these guys could have gotten more money elsewhere, and you can be damn sure there are players across the league on other teams that would love to be a part of what weve got going on. Im glad we dont bring in me first headcase locker room cancer Rider type players that worry about their numbers and getting paid first. And your declaration yesterday that we are not the class of the league on paper anymore is just garbage. Best QB, best group of receivers, best o-line, best book-ends, best running back, etc. Even one year older we are still the class of the league and its not even close.
