Noeller

it's a hamstring... those can be tricky. Best to let him get fully healed rather than rush him back and lose him for a more important part of the year.

from 3DN back in Sept: The six-foot-one, 200-pound target went unselected in the 2023 NFL Draft but signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars soon thereafter. He made three catches for 17 yards during the preseason and caught a two-point conversion from former CFL quarterback Nathan Rourke. Martin made 25 catches for 405 yards and two touchdowns over three collegiate seasons at the University of Nebraska (2020-22). He reportedly ran a 4.53-second forty-yard dash at his pro day along with a 41-inch vertical jump and an eleven-foot, two-inch broad jump. The 24-year-old had previous stints at Michigan and Iowa before transferring to the Cornhuskers. He caught 11 passes for 125 yards and one touchdown with the Wolverines in 2018 before making five catches for 28 yards and one touchdown with the Hawkeyes in 2019.

that's a good point... if the Als were smart, they SHOULD sign anyone other than Faj, who is 9 different kinds of useless....

fwiw, I said Ottawa all along for Brown...... JBR was beating the drum for Calgary being a likely option, with an outside chance of Edmonton. Lots of people had different takes on it, but all along Ottawa seemed like the most likely.

Schoen and Lawler are the two best receivers in the league.... with Mack gone. You can't argue this point in good faith.

I'm sure Calgary and Sask were very interested... likely most of the East teams.

Booch - everyone knows YOU know something. But there are other people, who don't know their ass from a hole in the ground and try to make definitive statements about what players think or want.... that make absolutely no sense.

You have a lot of inside information....

fwiw.... he follows this college team closely:

official release on this:

that's the other part of this move from Walters POV.... you're keeping him outta the West. So that, plus a pick which could be a ST guy or something..... it's a win.

that would be really really dumb

I had a feeling that was the 3rd move Jackubec was talking about..... yewwwww! What a day...

also, fwiw........

did we know about these two:? The Winnipeg Blue Bombers today announce the club has signed two American receivers in Kody Case and Tyler Adams.

Montreal's guy was the only comparable to Schoen/Lawler, and he's gone to the NFL....

some details: Installing new turf at IG Field is part of the Winnipeg Football Club’s commitment to providing the best possible conditions for our football and soccer players. Field Turf Vertex- Core 1 is the highest quality turf system and includes CoolPlay TPE infill, designed to reduce heat build-up in the summer months. The turf will be FIFA Quality Pro certified upon completion. “We are thrilled to partner with FieldTurf for this important upgrade to IG Field,” said Wade Miller, President and CEO of the Winnipeg Football Club. “This investment is part of our ongoing capital improvement projects to the stadium and will be a great new surface for our players as we prepare to host the 2025 Grey Cup.” The project is underway and is slated for completion in early May, just in time for the 2024 season; to provide ample time for completion, Valour FC matches and Blue Bombers games will be scheduled to begin the last week of May.

I seem to recall Booch or someone talking about how the Bombers really needed to get this done, as the existing turf was really starting to show its age...

Hodge (for whatever that's even worth...) says they're close to a deal on Cottoy, too....

just pour les lulz.....
