Bombers signed linebacker Jeremiah Gemmel today. He spent time with the 49ers and Denver.
Interesting tidbit is he replaced Barrington Wade on the Broncos' 80 man roster.

I assume that punter is staying because we need him as a global with Hansen gone. And we'll try and run 2 each game so that we can have the extra roster spot that comes with it...
DT was incorrect on the Huddle.
The extra roster spot (45th player) can be eithera Global OR National.

The Bombers had a jersey release event for their 50s jerseys and Kenny was on hand. I told him I was disappointed as I wanted him to sign a jersey for me but they didnt have my size made up that day.
He said no problem, when I got the jersey I could look him up in the phone book and go to his house to get it signed.
How many guys would make that offer?

Word has it he refused to sign his contract because it brought him too close to the action.
As I said last season, Micah Teitz was our most outstanding player. As in he was mostly out there standing.

Looks that way. Have you seen the amount of ads on that page lately? They also decided to do another article on Boomer Esiason a couple days ago (their 2nd this month) on his comments from 2021. I would say they are very desperate right now for both content and clicks.
I find these guys to be a good source of news.
They just report player transactions so no filler pieces or opinion articles:

He believes the Bombers' free agency headlines is that Castillo and Grant arent re-signed.

love me some big Stan but I think the very first piece of the turnaround was the 2013 Alex Hall for Neufeld trade.
Hall put up seven sacks for the Roughriders in nineteen games. In return, we got a Canadian OL starter for a decade.
I think that was Walters' first trade. Nice debut.
Not everyone liked the trade at first. Hall won a Grey Cup and Neufeld was injured a fair bit at the start of his time with the Bombers.
I remember Paul Wiecek saying the Riders the won the trade then he blocks me on twitter when I questioned his accessment. (I might have also questioned his sanity).

That was his brother(?) Ranthony. This is Raleigh Texada. With those names they must be bothers right?
Ranthony signed with the Bombers a couple of times. He was signed in 2020 but when the season was cancelled he opted out of his contract. He re-signed in 2021 but was cut in camp.
Raleigh was on the Bomber practice roster before.

Damn, FA hasn't even started yet...
No kidding, 16-2 and then complete overhaul.
I don't get it
Chad Kelly is making what, 400k more this season? Doesnt leave much money for other guys that are looking for raises.

Highest paid DB in league until J Peters signs.
Don't think Adeleke will get there on this contract.
Yup.

That might be money with bonuses, and it’s farhan it might just be wrong. But I’m preparing for that to be the deal hoping for the best preparing for the worst.
Dunk is reporting the same numbers and hasnt specified if there are any bonuses included.

Joe Smith took over after Blink, will Chris Smith replace Brady?

2023/2024 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread (BRADY’S BACK! DALTON’S BACK!)
in Blue Bomber Discussion
Posted
I had dinner with Milt a few years (a friend won a charity auction) and he said he roomed with Blink for their first trip to Montreal together.
He said he didnt see Charlie from the time they checked in until they were at the stadium the next day.
Blink went on to lead the team in rushing and receiving that night so Milt said he decided not to confront the issue and just let Blink be Blink.
The question is would the Bombers had won more cups in the early 2000s if they had team leaders that inforced the FIFO attitude? Was Blink the problem or lack of leaders the problem?
