The Blue Bombers today announce the signing of American quarterbacks Cooper Callis and Josh Jones, American linebackers Christian Dixon and Barrington Wade, American defensive end Jadrian Taylor, and three 2023 CFL Draft choices; defensive lineman Tanner Schmekel (35th overall), running back Jonathan Rosery (62nd overall) and defensive lineman Collin Kornelson (44th overall).

Times haven't been released yet but I image practices will start around 830-1000.

Barrington Wade was justed signed yesterday. 6 foot 1, 232 pounds. Was on the Bombers' neg list for awhile. Spent time on the Broncos' practice roster and got into 4 games in 2021. Was released by Denver at the end of Aug last year.

I could see Leggs being the punter and Sergio handling the kicking duties. Their salaries would prolly add up to what Medlock was making.

Looks like Sergio received a 30k bonus when he signed his new contract with Edmonton.

I saw this over the weekend. Sure is a different environment here with the Canadian Mafia running things:

Well, he does coach the Generals.

Yup, and Eli is back on the roster as well.

Mike Riley probably holds the record for coaching in the most football leagues.

The Bombers have done well at the draft under Walters but it's interesting to note that the team has the second lowest amount of draft picks from the last 6 years still on the team.

I know Miller blamed the overage on injuries but wouldn't they have had re-signing bonuses included in the total as well? Not that it matters but it would appear to me the team knowingly went over the cap.

He'll be working at some start up company.

One of Tyrell’s closest confidantes, Recruit Ready founder Brad Black, says his pupil, a 4.57 man in the 40-yard dash, is the most polished prospect he’s ever seen coming out of high school and is considered the No. 1 receiver prospect in Canada. https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/2023/01/12/winnipeg-receiver-turning-heads

The league also has a policy to not release attendance numbers. Imagine if it was the CFL that did that? We wouldn't hear the end of it from guys like Arash.

Although they did spend 20 million upgrading their stadium. (Half of that paid directly by students).

Chris Berman would prolly call him Kelvin what did you Ateman?

I am surprised I haven't seen more of this video on the Bombers' socials. Cool recruitment video from Strevy, Alford and Schoen. https://www.bluebombers.com/2023/04/07/free-agent-recruitment/

Bombers also signed an olineman. I thought the combines were only for players that were eligible for the upcoming draft.
