Naylor asked Walter's during the draft if they had info showing Eli wanted to play again. Apparently he does. We will see if he is still in football shape though. Could be the steal of the last 5 drafts. Potential starter in 5th round? Huge upside. Just needs to work out....and if it doesn't, no harm. I was surprised they didn't take Ross there, thought he would have fit the system well. But if Eli turns out. It's a no brainer. Wonder what went down with Wilkinson? Kinda odd to see that happen in the CFL draft. We'll see how well the teams have done this time next year, but I feel like it was a strong draft for the Bombers. Think its safe to say they are looking at starting a NI on the DL.

woli

He was solid. I'd rather see what else is out there.

Sorry, who give a ****?

I wouldn't mind seeing Vandetvoot in TC

Yup, the comment about not having any issues with him starting...is...concerning. I feel like it's a bit of saying whatever he wants situation, and I hope they aren't actually relying on him to fill that large if a role.

Bombers at 5

Can you put this comment in video form for me?

lol this ages you a bit my friend.

in a case like this. Yes. Assuming they are in clear violation of the contract between the two leagues, it would be pretty easy to justify.

No cheerleaders on this list?

I do. Win enough games so you host.

I'd be very surprised if WFC saw a profit this year. Or the next couple for that matter. Just too many costs that won't see a ROI for a bit at least.

yup, doesnt matter how many new rules you put in place. If you can't get quality players on the field you're done.

I like the play off format, but I'd like to see a shorter season.

Couture CAN play Tackle sure...but he really should never. And Harris listed as anything other than a Ratio breaking all star is a crime.

Best situation for me is trade one for a WR or a prospect with a lot of up side....and use one on Betts.

We had one of if not the best group of canadians in the CFL. It would benefit the teams with the worst just as much. Also I never implied it would/wouldn't be better for the bombers then anyone else...either did your original statement. I simply said it would be good for every team. Which is true.

FTFY

There was plenty of talk by fans and media alike that Jones was on the heels of Loffler last TC and that the coaches would have a hard choice to make. Obviously once Loffler left Walters would make those kinds of statements. But it wasnt the first or only time it had come up. And before you say it, I know the fans talking or the media talking aren't the same as the coaches....but youd be ignorant to think the coaches would say something like that, about an allstar during the TC. Further more....many I'm sure including yourself thought the loss of Bond was going to be a set back. We all saw how that played out. Yes he wasnt replaced by a rookie or a unproven player....but the sentiment was still there that his backup wouldn't suffice. We've seen over the course of the past 2 years how back ups have come in to replace starters due to injury without a drastic drop in quality, with the exception of Receiver's. There is reason to be optimistic. I dont think anyone is saying there is no potential for a drop in quality. We're just choosing to be optimistic based on a fairly large body of evidence. Optimism...you should try it sometime.

The CFLPA is doing ok, but the players on Social media need to stop. Out there talking about how they are willing to walk if needed. There are very few players in the CFL that aren't immediately replaceable. Sounds harsh, but it's the truth. The QB's a couple D players and a couple Canadians...but after that...there's already someone there waiting for their chance. Would the quality suffer...probably a bit...but would only be a matter of time before it was up to standard. Wouldn't be NFL holdout type of play...in fact I'd bet most fans wouldn't notice that big of a drop. I understand the players need to look out for what's in their best interest....but acting like they can hold the leagues feet to fire is laughable. I'm watching CFL football this summer whether they're a part of it or not.

It's gonna take ten years to develop...so we shouldn't start for another ten years...is the mindset some seem to have about this.

As long as you keep scoring you keep the ball!!
