Ryan Smith to retire
I don't but if you read his statement it's pretty clear that he can't play football anymore for health reasons. I just wish he'd have told the Bombers two months ago as I think he knew then (based on his comments) that he wasn't coming back.

Ryan Smith to retire
I wondered about Gurley myself. Wish Smith the best but the timing kinda sucks. If it is job related, not health related (which I doubt with his concussion problems last season) & he knew he had to make a choice I just wish he let the Bombers know a month & a half ago as there were some pretty good receivers available then we could have pursued. Having said that, he still has to look after himself first so he made the best decision for him & his family.

Bombers: Change In Operations Spending
The Bombers have to keep up. You chintz trying to save money in one area then it affects others. If players aren't happy or encounter difficulties on the road then it affects their play on the field. I can only imagine how bad it was under Butchko & Mack.

Seemed like a legit comment to me. JBR's not wrong though. Just that now the Bombers have some flexibility to not draft offensive linemen only with their first pick.

CFL Combine
Don't agree. It is if you have an offensive line that blows like we had until last season. We have needs at other positions that must be addressed more than just continually drafting OL. Thank God we've gone past those dark days of a few years ago.

Guess we'll see who Walters goes with in a few weeks. The more legit targets for Nicholls the better.

There was a guy with a big head when he was drafted. Played games with Hamilton for nearly 2 seasons. Is Plesius even starting for the Ti Cats?

Dressler is on the other side of 30. Adams & Smith had injury issues last year. We had Rory Kohlert playing boundary receiver & to be blunt if he wasn't awful then he was useless. We need to start a Canadian at receiver & our choices are fairly limited. To me, this is the most important position to shore up. More than any other.

He could ultimately be a thousand yard receiver. How can you just blanket bracket him like that? I'm going by need & our need at Canadian receiver is glaring.

CFL Combine
At 6 for sure. Just not sure at #1. Two first round picks, at least one has to come to camp competing for a spot.

I'm selfish. (1) I'd like him as a Bomber first. Two, then the NFL if he's drafted by someone else.

Only problem with Gray is do the Bombers pick him only to lose him to the NFL? Or go with the more sure thing in Vandevoort? We haven't reached the point where we can waste a pick on "futures" yet like the Stamps could.
-
CFL Combine
I'd be very happy if we drafted Vandevoort #1 as we really need to upgrade our Canadian receivers. If we knew Gray was CFL bound then he'd be a great selection as well. However, we really need to get better at receiver first. I think that should be Walters first priority.

I guess my point is for a Canadian to get a legit NFL chance as a draft prospect or free agent then all of his individuals have to jump off the sheet of paper it's written on. There are more & more freaks of nature coming out of the NCAA every year as offensive linemen.

His forty time might be problematic as his bench. However, who knows what the scouts are thinking? May not be an issue.

You sure get the impression the Republicans are a bunch of crooks. Especially this Nunes guy. Of course, everyone with ties to the Trump White House.

Spider-Man was always a teenager. So he should be young. I just hate reboot after reboot after reboot. Especially the SM films. Move on already.

Simonise is immature trying to take short cuts & thinks he can crack an NFL team. Maybe he can & maybe he can't. I do know this, he flunked out of the University of Calgary. To be able to play in the CFL & NFL you have to be smart as well as disciplined putting in the hours studying after 2 a days at training camp learning an offensive system. The coaches will demand it. If he can't handle simple academics at university then how is he going to handle a CFL or NFL playbook? Vandervoort is the safer choice, I believe.
