  1. At minimum to fix their situ...and all on 2-3 yr deals...they signed 3...one was a PR journeyman we ditched...one an aging in decline last yr likely stop gap...and another from B.C who is average at best and likely hit his peak...epic fail Basically their whole compliment of import starting receivers are gone..they lost 2 Canadian ones...mind you they weren't any good..but still depth...signed a second tier receiver in Jake W ...Brescasin who is meh and a bandaid and Bane outta CGY...who is nothing as of yet... potential sure...but it may not materialize in that system. Toss in a rookie OC...likely trying to install a new system with a new QB...oldest and least mobile in the league...who has history of showing he wilts under pressure...now behind what is likely worst online in league...again...and ho hum gosh they tried hard HC running the show...yup...I like their chances...chances to maybe match last yrs wins if they are lucky
  2. Don't hate the dude...he's average now..but when you trying to rebuild..and gain some consistency then going after a dude in his last yr likely and not a long term answer isn't prob not the smart way to go about it...
  3. win and lose as a team....and will be same this yr as well....if he is a direct result in losses...multiple losses....from extremely bad kicks...multiple in multiple games...he will be replaced...until then we will roll with him and let him develop likely into a top kicker who handles all duties
  4. hahahaha......I have to agree there, but he can run around and get the odd first down that the Harris wont get
  5. Yeah....In all honesty I would rather have Clark over Godber....and Blake?....how does that make them better?.....Old immobile Harris....behind that oline is probably a down grade from the FAJ as the running with head cut off first downs they got before just evaporated. And that receiving group wont scare....anybody....like who there is a threat to take one to the house from anywhere on the field?...I don't see anyone.....where we have what...3 guys minimum who are gonna be a threat to score from anywhere They signed some holdovers on defence...that didnt get it donelast yr....One with questionable training habits/health where they needed to add a TC bonus to come in....healthy??...signed an old declining Johnson...and let the younger Linebacker go...albeit a 1 trick pony, but kept 35 yr old Dean...yeah....great off-season Oday
  6. Lol...what else he gonna say as it was his only real option outside of mtl
  7. https://3downnation.com/2023/02/20/new-montreal-receiver-greg-ellingson-cody-fajardo-jason-maas-caused-him-to-pick-alouettes-over-riders/ I read that as another kick to the onions to the Riders, and Ellingson's polite way of saying "dont like whats going on there, nor do I want to be there" Same with Moore saying he "wanted to see what it was like on the other side" That organization just blows...and lame duck coach/gm combo aint helping them
  8. Yeah...they fail to mention that it was one of their own when the chirp about that
  9. Agreed...when healthy I'd say Jeffcoat is the best all around end...let's see how this yr pans out...but I bet if he is out for extended time again this yr we let him walk in 2024 I also still think we see a kongbo reappearance this summer too ..which would be huge
  10. Leggz has improved each yr..and u have to remember he was what ..a 23 yr old kid when he arrived..and was basically tossed right into the fray ..I not overly concerned with the kicking game...let's revisit after game 6 before we start calling for his head Pretty sure we will have adequate d-tackle competition in camp this yr...we are quite set at db save for injuries and I would guess our starting 6 are already set...and we also have some prospects signed ..so that whopping amount we had last couple yrs when we were needing to replace 2..3..starters isn't an issue...so bring in the beef.
  11. I rather the di spots go to receiver...linebacker...defensive line..not kicker...we went 15-3 with a still maturing Leggz...and didn't lose grey cup cause of him .. shouldn't even have been a close game...we sucked as a whole....based on putrid play ZC should be cut based on that thinking...he was god awful...but was also pretty much gonna be useless due to his injury...we as a team just don't use excuses so it's never been mentioned or touched on...he shouldn't even have been on field..but a wounded ZC was our best shot..
  12. Same and agreed ...100 percent sure leggz will be improved And as for kickers . Leggz just turned 26...that's a baby in kicker yrs..to give up now if foolish
  13. Just avg 4 TDs a game...u miss 2 pat and u still have 26 points there alone haha...with our offence and defense....toss in a FG here and there I see more wins than losses haha
  14. https://www.bluebombers.com/2023/02/17/the-only-place-i-saw-myself-playing-was-in-winnipeg/ Just on effin solid dude man....privledged to have a guy like that on this squad....and you know it wont go un-noticed by his teamats and Bomber staff...love this dude
  15. that has crossed my mind as well as a 1 yr guy until we unearth a new prospect
  16. Just stuff Dobson at the nose to bull rush the snot outta interior olines....he would definitely have to have two guys double teaming him....problem solved...then You also have an extra Olineman on the roster in case of 2 injuries
  17. my guess is he is back for the same as last yr......and prob could have left for at least 160k or more.....but brother bonds are hard to drive a wedge through...as has been proven
  18. ZC must just be grinning ear to ear Same with BradyO.....He's gonna have so much room to work in now.....and how he punishes defenders he may be flattening many a db this yr in the second level
  19. hence one of the reasons I knew he wouldnt be gone....and he is a true blood and guts guy for his brothers and team...we have a room full of them He's a heart and soul guy....you dont let that walk out your door cause it's infectious....and you know damn well his teamates are elated for him...and the "team" He fits in where he did last yr...except we had to settle for Lawler instead of Ellingson...oh well...hopefully we will be just fine ahahaha
  20. you're entitled to that.......opinion?.. Dude got just under 800 yards after a slow start...and 9 tds...and was key in other areas...3 guys had more receiving td's than him....ironically 2 of em were Bombers taking away more potential td's for him....other teams would have loved to have that
  21. knew it all along and never doubted it...was gonna say something yesterday but was keeping my pie hole shut....This teams ability to keep guys for less is unmatched anywhere....and has frustrated and angered some other teams brass...not my words...I got that from someone in the know....unfair was a word I heard that has been uttered...haha...and I love it
  22. yeah speculative tor 2024....2023 tho what I mentioned is as is right now...nothing speculative there, and Lawler sure is a luxury, but its a reload and augment move...Bailey isnt gone yet either, but if he is a group of Lawler, Schoen, Demski, Woli, and say Agudosi is better than a Schoen, Demski, Bailey, Woli and Agudosi group.... and agreed....as it was there was no DT worthy of 200k plus money in FA, and we also don't know who they have coming to camp at DT either...maybe they feel they have that covered, and the smart money was to give ZC one the best game breaker wideouts.... which they just may, because if we broke camp with what we have right now...thats a solid group
  23. Next year I see a Jeffcoat departure, (unless he plays 18 games and is a force then that muddies the water) because when healthy and ballin' is probably more of a going concern for offences than Willie...and we know come play-offs he elevates Willie has tons of value beyond sexy stats and is still game planned against, and would be the one more willing to take the fair value hometown discount. I see a Bennett free agent signing, especially with what I think will be a Kongbo return....so we would have Willie/Kongbo/Bennett/Hansen/Rookie DE group That would be ideal especially for ratio reasons, and nationalized American aspect with Willie considering we got him for 260k this yr...less than several lesser talent receivers that is hardly blowing his wad....and yes it was a need...you add the best receiver to an already top group...you do it D-line to me is not a concern as much as others bemoan it....Lawson will be our Canadian DT and will be just fine...with Fatboi having lesser reps this yr...yes we do need a DT but thats what camp is for, as well as value FA once dust settles and the big money is gone...We also have been pretty good at finding DT's (Bryant/Poop/Stove) so not overly concerned there....Willie...Healthy Jeffcoat....and Hansen right now gives us a good end rotation, so it's not like the cupboard is bare
  24. Evans will be the starter there, and that will put them below us....They may challenge for tops in the East...have some good pieces, but also have some glaring weaknesses. I still think when you look at each franchise top to bottom....Management and coaching...intangibles and top end players in prime....(and pffft with the age thing) we are still the class of the league and the team to beat....Barring some type of catastrophic injury(s) but that can be said for all teams If it is another Grey Cup appearance, and against the Argo's....I see it as a total different result..... and not just looking at it thru blue tinted spectacles....its from looking at and evaluating the sum of all the parts
