    stevethe3rd got a reaction from Bigblue204 in 2021 Blue Bombers Training Camp/Pre-Season Stuff   
    From an outside fan perspective I think Lawler has the chance to be your best receiver. I really like Darvin Adams and think he is a very complete reciever but I think he is probably at his peak in play. I see Lawler as having room to improve. I remember him burning Purifoy in the West Final for a long touchdown on a corner route. Something not many receivers did in 2019.

    Achilles can be a variety thing, it can be related to over work or being tired, a calf injury that is not healed ei Kevin Durant in the 2019 finals, taking steriods or being out of shape. Lots of these non contact injuries are freak so as injuries happen in camp don't assume it is because someone is out of shape.

    I am a rider fan and even i will admit that there are 4 or so QBS that should be favoured ahead of him. The one year of success has to be taken into account.

    I talked to a player at camp. He said that all the injuries happened on the same drill. It seems like maybe that drill was too hard to with coming out of quarantine.

    Bodog is in it to make money just because you are the favourite for Vegas doesn't mean you are actually the favourite. They have advanced computers that figure out betting patterns and set the odds for what they think will bring in the most cash.

    Two years in a row the Bombers pick a former teammate of mine. Last year (Nick Dhielly). Think he will be a CFL player for sure. Big/athletic should find a home on special teams at the very least. He played cover Linebacker at the U of R but he is a gym rat and I think he would be better suited to add another couple pounds and play inside linebacker. Hoping for the best from him, good dude with a bigger personality.

    And another guy I know. I think he will be a stud in the CFL. Super fast and well built. Bombers should be able to have a Canadian Backfield for a while with him and Oliveria. Unfortunately got busted for PEDs and missed out on the 2019 seasons which probably hurt his draft stock. The PED suspension seemed like bullshit and it seems like everyone in Sask football community has kind of just accepted or thinks he unknowingly  took it just like Harris, including me. Guy is really highly thought of for his work ethic and just being a good dude.

    stevethe3rd got a reaction from JCon in Pedersen confirms Bombers are the CFL's Flagship Franchise   
    this is it 100%. Not saying Winnipeg isnt the top ran franchise in the league but he has said other things about teams that make me question the motives. He seems to want his show to be a national show rather then regional which makes sense. He does get some good guests on and have some interesting conversations. I will usually watch on youtube later if I see someone interesting on. I do find him annoying and especially the little man crushes he seems to develop for random players such as Duron Carter.

    stevethe3rd got a reaction from Tracker in 2021 CFL Free Agency   
    What safety is better then him? The guy has been in the league for a long time and has been a consistent starter to point for the last few years on the riders which has had one of the best Ds. To say he cant tackle if actually wrong and shows you don't watch. His weakness is when he is asked to cover the 3 to the wide side in man coverage because they are playing 0, but I don't think there is a safety in the league that is super strong at that because if they were they would probably be playing HB.
     
    Freddie Bishop had 6 sacks last year but the year before he played in the CFL he had 15. He was bouncing around the NFL before that so I don't think he qualifies as CFL journeyman. Dabire and Henry were good enough to be the Canadian DTs on a first place team in the west in 2019 but all of sudden suck? A.C. is a solid DE with ability to get double digit sacks and also plays the run really well. He also fits their need of being able to drop into coverage in some situations. All in all that is a solid group which I would put ahead of Montreal, Ottawa, BC Edmonton, and Calgary. 
    Linebackers they have Larry Dean who is probably top 2 at his position in the CFL, then at will they will probably have some young American like Idowu who was good enough to take defensive reps from Solomon in 2019, with Purifoy playing SAM. To me the question mark on D comes from the corresponding move of having Purifoy playing SAM, and who takes his spot.

    DT Split between Dabire and Henry
    Edem at safety
    Field corner or possibly Linebacker

    Too bad Bombers cant find a way to make Alexender work at Safety with the ratio. He was a game changer back there.

    As a rideran they are a great tackle combo. But Bryant is on a totally different level then Hardwick and possibly anyone in the league. He is a guy you can put into any scheme and will be dominant. Where I think Hardwick struggles in pass pro. The scheme he plays in Winnipeg really allows him to succeed.

    A friend of mine was in camp with the bombers last year. He told me Simonise was out of it at camp. Seemed like he was not engaged at all. Also there was a story about when they went around the room and introduced themselves on the first day he said something really strange. Gave my buddy the impression he was not that bright.
