The Bombers only pick 9th if they are the last place team. You give up the first round, 2nd round continues with same order. The 2nd round pick can range from 9th to 17th.
Saskatchewan when Labette and Picard signed, picked Sam Hurl and Ben Heenan, traded for Xavier Fulton and Chris Patrick, found Kory Sheets, and traded for Odell Willis.
An aging olineman, a mediocre lb, one legit ni talent and three draft picks? I'm sure nearly every year every team does the same.please give us an exampleRemember when the Riders signed Picard and Labatte when both in their prime?Are you suggesting that no team has signed 3 ni in a season before?
Also for the draft picks remember how great Poblah turned out to be? I wouldn't be bragging about the guys we added just yet.
I'd agree it's too soon to tell how the signings will pay off. But Walters has brought in more Canadians then any GM in recent history for the Bombers. To that I say well done Kyle! Of course he wouldn't have to bring in all these Canadians if the last two clowns had a hot clue on how to properly draft and retain Canadians....
Agree. Remember the Poblah.
Remember Esks got Laurant in the supplement draft can get a outstanding player.
