That's the thing, REC has been an issue since Ryan smith retired/Moore moved on. Could argue even before then. However, the bombers haven't signed a top WR since Nichols took over. Sure Dressler and Bowman, but I'd argue they were both past their prime before coming here. Now how many have they targeted is anyones guess. But it's been a problem for multiple years and it hasn't been addressed.

That would make absolutely zero sense. Why would they take a shut down RT and move him inside? I think tait is out to lunch on that. I can see Foketi going to RG.

I've mentioned this to a few friends of mine. But I'm starting to honestly think a lot of the top tier rec in this league may not like the idea of playing in a Nichols lead Offence.

Still young. Was it Jorden or Daniels of the Stamps who sat on their practice squad for a year or two. Didn't really do anything and then boom. Had a break out year. Some guys just need time to get used to the game up here and mature a bit. Hopefully Washington is one of them.

That's not true. They are they type of organization that signs big FA. That's how they have found basically all the talent you talked about.

I see what You're saying...but Ottawa went from a HOF QB to a guy who proved he could play in the CFL, with one of the best recieving groups the CFL has ever seen, and an Oline that had one of the Best LT helping to protect. They no longer have any of that. I think it will be a race to the bottom for every east team outside of Hamilton.

Didn't stand out? He was one of CGY best rec down the stretch.

Ottawa??

uhhh...they re-signed Hurl.

I don't think it's replacing him that's people are against. IF they find someone better perfect. You're making it sound like Thompkins has no business playing pro ball. Only speaking to his numbers as if that's the end all be all to show his talents. You're right, he didn't put up big numbers as our #4 option. Guess what, our #1 option didn't either. The only thing Thompkins could do was catch the ball when it was thrown his way. He did. Damn near every time. He was also a fantastic blocking for the leagues #1 rusher. I'm not opposed to replacing him. I'm opposed to shitting on a guy for doing his job as a #4 option.

It'll be interesting to see how he does with no Micah

I wouldn't mind it, but concussion history is hard to over look now.

Everyone is talking about Lofflers big hits. In 1995 they would have been game changing. In todays game, they aren't. In fact that hit on Manny (while one of my favorite of all time) ended up costing the Bombers big time. Big hits are not needed or (in terms of player safety and game planning) wanted anymore. I'd rather have someone who can break a pass up or pick it off then lay a big hit. Keep in mind, I love hard nose big hitting football. But the game has changed.\ I'm willing to see what Jones/Hecht can do out there. Looking back, Jones was often highly spoke of by his coaches and made plays when given the opportunity. Will be interesting to see if he can get back to that form. Hecht filled in nicely a few times last season. But I don't see him as the future for the that position.

I'm honestly not convinced Davis can't start in the CFL. He has shown a lot of flashes. Just needs the right fit. is it Ottawa? Likely not.

Walker Matthews still available. Somoni Lawerence still out there? Not that I want him, but thought he'd be scooped by now.

I'll take Jennings and Davis over Collaros and Bridge.

I'd take JSK over Sherrit

Camp? They're playing the GC tomorrow. BC vs CGY

Where have the argos been? I think i've seen every team sign someone except the Argos...well and the bombers to be fair.

I wouldn't take bo if it meant losing Streveler. Nichols sure, but Streveler is too young and has too much upside. Maybe if Bo had helped turn cgy around...but he hasn't. His success is very much tied to the environment he's been a part of.

I kinda hope Bo lands in TO or Ssk. I think he may be exposed a bit with either team. Neither have the coaching or the depth CGY does. I do think he goes back to CGY though.

Exactly. regardless of how they play. No one spends big on the Safety. It's one of the easiest backfield positions to play/replace. Good luck to him. But at this point he is Ssk bound I would think.

not really. Couture knows the O, as does Peterman and Simonese. They aren't first year players. And all saw playing time. Peterman and Couture saw significant playing time. Gray spent time in the NFL and has been here since before the Grey Cup. I expect him to be ready for TC.

I think Simonese is going to be playing regardless of the ratio.

Yes they will
