    He did sign here, We ended up not wanting him because pretty much immediately after signing, he went online and streamed himself from his hotel room talking about how he was going to play receiver, DB and return kicks and average 37 touchdowns a game.

    How is anyone outperforming anyone right now. There are no available free agents right now, it is just GM's extending their own players before they hit free agency. This seems like you fabricating something to complain about since there is nothing really to complain about right now. Sorry to say but SWING AND A MISS.

    Engelwood reacted to mbrg in Messam   
    So how do you want to use him?  Describe his place on the team, his role, what he will actually contribute.  Be specific.  Connect some dots and demonstrate how he will make this team better this year in real and practical ways.
     
    Example of being specific (that requires a fictional depth chart that some will argue about even though that is clearly not the point), if Cotton is our starting RB and Ford is our DI who will replace Cotton in games in the event of injury or rest or pee break - Messam is not as good a running back as Ford (I should probably use Grigsby so all the people who don't like Ford aren't wasting their time arguing a point that isn't the point, but I suspect the Bombers will keep Ford around over Grigsby so I will remain true to myself, jeez this is a really long aside).  (I'll just underline everything not in parenthesis so it's semi-readable)
     
    So either the Bombers are going to use:
    - Cotton, Ford, Volny
     
    Or under your scenario:
    - Cotton, Messam, Volny
     
    There is no realistic scenario where the Bombers use:
    - Cotton, Messam, Ford
     
    And there is no practical reason for the Bombers to use:
    -Cotton, Ford, Messam
    as Messam has no reason to ever touch the ball in that scenario.
     
    Practical and specific examples provided.
     
    Please feel free to argue with some practical and specific examples as to why you think Messam improves this team.  Messam being better than Volny as a RB has never been a point of debate.  Only the complete lack of practical relevance that his superiority has is being argued.

    Sorry if your dream is a declining 29 year old Canadian running back who does not play special teams, will not win the starters job and averaged 4 ypc with a significantly better Oline then ours last year. Leave me out of the nightmare thank-you.

    So because we have little import depth you want to use a roster spot on someone who will never improve, is on the backside of his career, does not play special teams and is not a position of need on the bombers. Would you like some ocean side property in Saskatchewan? its got a great view.
    In the CFL if you are not a starter you better be able to play special teams, especially with O'Shea as head coach. So please explain where this fit is. You only sign a Canadian to play a skilled position if and only if he either presents no drop off from your import players you are playing at that position or he can be a backup and PLAY TEAMS.

    Lost on Collaros - lost here but going to play for Austin and not having to move sounds alot better that coming to a team with no established Oline and a question mark at OC at the time
    Lost on Burris - Got out bid by 100K+ for an aging QB
    Lost on Butler - Wanted to go home even though we through the house at him, so I guess the team lost on Labatte a couple years ago too when he bailed and went home to Mommy.
    Hufnagel "schooled" every other GM in the draft. - look at the number of picks they had
    Maybe didn't try to acquire Glenn but I consider that a loss! - not worth the second overall pick in the draft, there is a possibility that he also did not want to come back here. thats what they wanted from us. Please I would love for you to tell me otherwise after you just went on a rant below about how canadian talent is the back bone of any team.
    Same goes for Laurent - how do you know that Laurents agent early on said not a chance and instead of wasting time they moved on.
