Boy that Gallimore would look delightful rotating in at DT with Richardson and Nevis...dare to dream but doubt he ever sets foot in a CFL stadium..though i wouldnt mind if we used a 3rd rounder on him...we can afford a flyer with our depth

How About that Other Worldly Play-Off Defense?
Booch replied to Wanna-B-Fanboy's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
me either...he had ran his course..we got a cup..as did he..time fr him to move on and cement his legacy, or confirm his limitations..we will be fine, and the play book we had last year is the Winnipeg Blue Bombers playbook..not property of Lapo with legal conditions we can't use it..But Buck will certainly augment it, and add new things, and I bet be less passive....but for all we know a lot of it could have been Buck's influence...we shall see, -
How About that Other Worldly Play-Off Defense?
Booch replied to Wanna-B-Fanboy's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
basically as that whole year went...hope to get a few scores and have defense hold them..or chip in...we played 99% of time to not make an error and not do anything to lose the game..as opposed to go out there and grab the game by the onions and win it outright... -
Hamilton will look at it as they are going to be paying around 600k to 700k for their 2 QB's regardless...as will most teams so really who cares who is starting game in and game out...They use that ,omey elsewhere and Evan's regresses..or gets hurt do you really think they will be happy rolling out Watford??..or some other cheap in-experienced putz?..

Liked Neufelds comment that re-upping was a no brainer..and he'd be in ears of others to as well for a Title Defense...I feel this is a similar sentiment among this group and we will be easily keeping our must haves/wants...

and don't blame him...You would think Huff would afford him the same treatment that Walter's did Kongbo..

Key signing if you ask me..Get Hardick and Bryant finalized and we are back to our Grey Cup starting (dominant) line...with Gray and Eli in pipeline and most likely means we are moving on from Couture..which is fine by me as Desjarlais/Eli and Gray all have better upside...He served us well for 4 years..we got him a ring..I bet we see him in Ottawa

Jefferson has to be on active roster, and for more than league minimum..so unless they offer him a signing bonus of over 90k...which is what he'd be out from a CFL deal while trying out in TC there (where players are not paid) then I doubt he signs a deal there...also I believe what he would need as a bonus is more than the amount that NFL teams are allowed now for bonuses for free-agent guys..I think, as they did cap it Kongbo has PR time...no family to take care of..can afford to sit on a PR a while, and would be a league minimum guy SMS as well

Wonder if Kongbo and Willie will be working out together today in Miami..and wonder if it's going to be a choice of one..over the other for Miami if it comes down to they wanna sign a guy...You would think Kongbo would get the nod based on age..potential...size..I do know they are both there today

makes one wonder of lapo's faith in himself and his ability to be a leader and turn a situation around, in choosing Ottawa over Edmonton When you look at it Edmonton is the better team all around..Have a QB, a way better defense...better depth, and also logistically is a lot closer to his wife's family/extended family, yet he choose to go across country, to a team with no QB...arguably a tire fire, and a GM who is rumored difficult to deal with Looks to me he tried to take the safe path and go to a spot where being mediocre will most likely result in a play-off spot in the weaker east, as opposed to battling WPG/CGY/SSK and I bet even BC this year for a play-off spot...choose his destination like he coached/called a game...safe with minimal risk.. To me that reeks of lack of true confidence in ones self
-
Lapo has been, and always will be a notorious cautious overly safe coach..not prone to taking chances and risks...luckily the last few years he had a Harris..Medlock and a real good o-line to compensate for it, and squeeze the most out of the offence in terms of points..can't see that narrative changing, especially in his first bit as the new HC...He is going to want to minimize errors and turn overs and not give his team chances to screw up...could be a slow start there for them.. You could even see at times here the last year and a bit guys frustrated with play calls and the end result, and some guys loafing it at times as they knew they were just window dressing...and teams at times totally ignored our guys knowing there was not going to be a ball headed to them Pierce's offence is going to come out strong, because teams will not be used to a lot of the knew wrinkles we are gonna show, or how guys are going to be used...This as well should have a huge impact on a Whitehead/Grant in the offence, and hopefully Woli

and most likely be his demise in the end...happy for him but he seems to me like the kind of coach who needs to focus on one..or the other and doing both overwhelms him..well it's what happened before...has he changed?..guess we will see..he won't have the pieces there to lean on that he did here
-
No ill will there...he was able to work and make more money doing whatever it was back home as opposed to PR spot..with 3 guys ahead of him and no chance save for injuries..I hope he is back..One of guys who stood out to me at camp as a new comer along with Stove, Bailey and Walker...I have no doubt that if we didn't have Willie..Or Jeffcoat he would have been in our rotation in Roh's role until Kongbo stepped up

I agree..this off season is not nearly as daunting..desperate..stressful.. full of question.. sure we have and may lose a piece or two..but lots still in place..others also in house and this place has become a preferred destination And we are grey cup champs...and next year reigning champs..cant complain

Woli's lack of use may have persuaded him to look elsewhere as well next yr....maybe this loss of Lapo may swing in a positive light for certain free agents
-
Well Roh will be an easy re-sign..and is damn good...also If Mcallister isn't on an XFL team I could see him back lickity split next year if we loose Jefferson..Jeffcoat..Roh..McCallister with Hansen spelling ain't the end of the world...plus Willie money could be used for somethng else in Free gency

Wake was also just turning 26..Willie will be 29...those 3 years in NFL eyes are big...also he has no PR eligibility left, and would not be making NFL minimum..so SMS..age..Politics of NFL are all against him, but as an athlete he no doubt belongs down there

That too...people have to remember that these guys if/when they try out are not getting paid..so if they down there a long time in camp..then get cut..they are out the possible money in those 2 months thast they would have been making in the CFL...And guys with a family..Like Willie are not to keen on doing that unless a team forks out a nice signing bonus upfront..and now with caps on Free-Agent and Draftee bonuses allowed...it's highly unlikely

Jefferson is behind the 8-ball though...age and no PR time left..so he has to be on the roster on game day, or it's nothing...plus being booted for off-field issues last time won't help his case

That's how we structured ratio...ALL yr

And should be mentioned..losing Lapo should be..and is probably one of the least impactful issues we need to adress/face this off season We can still run the same offence if we want..its property of the Bombers..not Lapo..and we will most likely run a variation of it as our base..with new tweaks and influences..and change terminology but with basically all our offensive starters being back pretty much..there will be minimal issues
