Brandon

Meanwhile his replacement Augustine looks straight out of a comic book super hero.....

I'm pretty sure O'Shea is the most respected and followed by a lot of other guys like Bryant and Bighill and many more.

I don't see in any way how the shine on the Blue could even be tarnished a smidge based on that Sun story. If anything it improves and shows that this management is extremely professional and will not tolerate players who are not committed. Also once again... Chicken Little Noeller? One guy complains on his way out and somehow people won't want to come here despite dozens of other players saying nothing but great things and other veteran all stars taking pay cuts to stay?

BJ Cunningham is still on the market, if healthy he can do some damage.

I remember Ambles having some really good games... what kind of receiver is he? Burner? Deep threat? Good hands?

Do you have a link for that?

That's an amazing deal for Trevor Harris. As for Watford... he sucks unless you want a QB only for those 1 yard plunges.

I wonder if any other teams currently or in the past in the CFL has ever lost a group of players? I wonder what the Bombers are going to do without the ability to replace these now gone players with recruiting and/or free agency. I wonder when the Bombers will ever prove that they can recruit new talent and/or demonstrate that they can find depth at many positions? What did we do last year when we started brand new DB's? How did we ever survive with brand new talent? Imagine if a team like Calgary would ever lose a player or two to the NFL or other teams, I wonder what would of ever happened if they lost a premium receiver?

Augustine and his 7 yard per carry is nothing? So had O'Shea benched Harris last season in favor of Augustine you would of approved of this? Once again what are people smoking here? Have they never seen teams ever move on from players?

Dom Davis on the market again then

Once again... Are you crazy?

Is this your first off season ever? When did you become chicken Little with the sky is falling?

People are being crazy. 5 - 1000 yard seasons in a row and one down year in which he played less games on the worst team in the West which only scored 22 more points then Ottawa during the season. Ellingson - 47/69 68% in 10 games while playing half his games with a rookie and he played against the Winnipeg defense 3 times! Adams - 26/49 53% in 11 games while playing with the MOP on the absolute best team. WTF? I like Adams but if they were to get Ellingson then that's a huge upgrade and helps fill that gap from the loss of Lawler.

Stanback is awesome and a real pain in the ass in every single game to bring down. How he gets $150 and mediocre talent gets double is baffling.

Did anyone try any Poutines out around town during poutine week? We had Jonseys which was good but a pretty safe dish. Anyone have anything unique/different?

Well he did out perform him so it's a possibility? Also he doesn't have a large injury on his resume (AFAIK).

A huge over pay. Great deal for Montreal!

How can you judge any receiver when for years we had bums throwing the ball to them. Things picked up and instantly our receivers were better once we brought in Nichols up until he was far to hurt and then suddenly our receivers disappeared again. Magically these receivers started getting the ball and moving the yards with Strev.... and then disappeared again with a really bad Nichols.... and then boom the moment we get Zach ... Bailey, Lawler, Demski and whoever else started getting catches and moving the chains again. The guys we had in camp last season looked great and unfortunately the injury bug hit a few of the new guys. I have ZERO impression that this team cannot scout receivers. Our issues in the past wasn't the talent of the receivers... it was Nichols and possibly the offense of LaPolice which didn't stretch teams. Great points... I really do like the idea with Harris. I also don't see what the issue is with the size of Bailey? Him growing one inch doesn't instantly make him a deep threat and a much better player? I could see if he was a tiny guy like Banks but he's not?

Noticed how much better Lawler and Bailey looked once they removed the real issue with the receivers..... Kind of hard to judge a receiver when the ball is 5 yards short and out of reach for them.

Lets sign random guys because I am familiar with the last name and they had success many years ago! OR Maybe we can scout someone new and not over pay and possibly get a guy with a way higher ceiling coming in on a lower price tag?

Not concerned at all, maybe he has a few guys on his radar that he wants to bring into the league. Receivers and RB's are a dime a dozen and not the position that you have to over pay to bring an older guy in. Plus if he wants a vet presence why not bring back Adams?

I do not remember reading that.

Masoli to Ottawa is a good move for them, he's good at moving from the pocket and throwing on the run. A significant upgrade over Nichols and Davis.

Would you say Lawler is better then Stegall because of the rings?

I can't remember in recent times anyone leaving the team and trashing it on the way out? Maybe a few guys early in the O'Shea timeline like Banks?
