Just win here....or be contending yearly....that and the culture here is a strong pull to retain guys.....if they are used that is....we need to utilize our young talent and actually give them snaps...we have lagged a lot in that capacity over recent yrs...

Kelly should have been on active roster all year long....when he was on he was one the top ST guys we employed....losing games for the likes of Schmeckle...That Oline guy we dressed earlier in the yr for no particular reason...Named started with an S....thats how much an impact he made on my mind....Bennett...who better really bring it and show he belongs, or be cut in camp....just a complete head shaker...almost on par with the Jackson lunacy....so odd he hasn't been scooped up for his stellar DI use elsewhere...tells you something especially with a few real weak sisters in the league

if he can punt the ball...and be consistant with it....I hope that spells the end for the global punter and we will roster a diff global that offers depth and ST usage....

I like that signing...Talked to a few peeps familiar with him and rave about his work ethic and ST work...will fit in here realy well with the FIFO thing
The bonus is as a guy coming in to fill the Miller role...as fullback he actually has the skill set and athleticism to be a threat out there and fully expect him to get some usage in that role....guys will need to be aware of him sliding out of the backfield on short yardage plays....he not respected, he could gobble up serious yards on pitches and swing passes...and 2 back sets in goal line area with him and BO together is gonna be a big plus too...Hoping too that Samson can push Thomas to the PR or the pasture...for the amount of reps Jake should get, ne better served with the young Bull....which can put him that much more further ahead in development for 2025...and depending on the defensive ratuio and where we choose to use the 1 starter we need...we may not even need to use a National DT save for just rotation and keeping guys fresh....which I hope is the way we are headed especially with Ford back....and if we actually use the Nationlized Yank option

I think he may be remembered more for his Never Alone Foundation that helped cancer patients, families & caregivers than his time as a Bomber player or President. Rest in Peace, Lyle Bauer. He'll be missed.

A Bomber legend, whether you agreed with everything he did as Team CEO or not. Too soon ...

I not sold on Brubacher and trust in thats why we didnt grab him...CIS to Pro's for him is gonna be a huge step....he's flawed and a project who may project to a decent rotation piece at best

seen it 1000 miles away with this management team...hopefully they do a 180 with the Canadian draft....

we need to go defence heavy...front 7...and not plugs who only translate to a few yrs of decent ST play
A flyer on an Oline guy who may take 2 yrs to get here, and a guy who has no NFL interest whatsoever....I also dont look at certain players with no upside coming into the pro atmosphere, as thats something you can't assume...Much the same as guys who appear to be ready to roll and fizzle away a yr and half later...
After round 1...maybe 2...after seeing some of the dust settling I would like to see us swing a trade as well if in our case remaining picks are just picks for the sake of having picks and dont fill a need for us 

I fully expect us in the draft to grab a legit guy with our first pick....possibly the second but fear they won't necessarily be dire need picks....with the remainder i assume we will see...but hope we don't a succesion of why?....could have gotten later in draft....serves no need/zero potential with the balance....hope I am wrong but not holding my breath yet again....with the abundance of picks I am sure this yr we could pick guys with serious rotational potential...even starter material with bulk of the picks, and then with those extra picks we have grab those slugs we love so much, as I am sure they are not targeted by anyone but us in the first 4 rounds...if at all

That’s a damn good way to put it. 
 
In general while I enjoy drafts a bunch of sports I follow, the lay out and time seems like a dinosaur. I feel like a really good podcast style setting with portions that involve each team and their picks in a fast paced format would reach todays target demo for sports a lot better.
 
 If we take 2 guys on the front 6 in our first 3-4 picks along with 1 ol I think we will be in great shape.

did we not have a Canadian punter in camp last year...who basically got bypassed and ignored as our coaches were all gaga over goofy Ausie style kicks? and then continued with it as our coverage on teams enhanced their suck all yr?
We should have just had Castillo kick long bomb field goals with lotsa hang to allow our coverage guys to get down there as opposed to last year where the returner had usually 20 yards of free space to get to top speed and find the seams before we had anyone relatively close to disrupting the return...let alone make a tackle...we sucked so bad last year...was embarrassing

I as gonna say the exact thing....and doesnt hurt to have a backup place kicker in case of an injury...a global punter is a waste unless he is something special and consistantly swings the tide of game in your favour (and that Global would be down south anyway)...a DL guy...DB...gives you way more benefits, and an overall better roster

I'm not overly concerned, but more curiuous as to how we go about the other end opposite WJ and how.who we use as rotation. Withe the Jackson stupidity now off the table thre is a good chance we can get back to a deeper rotation which will do wonders
We know we will be fine with WJ and likely Lawson as the main end and DT....If we choose to go with a canadian starter on dline,
Fox can be very good and isn't a raw rookie, and I ecpect Randall to rely push fo a spot and can be a big load in the middle, and as mentioned really like Woods...so roater allowing if we able to dress those 3...or 2 of the 3 we will be okay and have a way more active interior.
We know Haba can play and should only get better, but I still feel Garbutt is the better and may surprise coming out of camp....that being aid we may even dress 2 import ends to go with WJ....or 3 import interior guys, especially now with Ford back and the possibility he grabs a starters role in the secondary.
We have a few other real intruiging end prospects coming in as well, an hopefully we go defense heavy with our global picks as there are some actual ballers there this yr...so competion this yr is gonna be legit and real....and 1 yr out from a home cup appearance being a possibility is the perfect time to start the partial transition to young hungry talent....Camp should be very intersesting for sure
My main concern is on how we formulate the O-line and who we choose to use, and hopefully it's based on true talent, not a personal like/bias or the old reward system we have used in past yrs.....If guys like Schmeckle...Thomas....Bennett (if he doesn show massive improvement as his age now limits upside) Kolo and Kramdi (good role player and in-situ guy, but not a true front line starter) come out of camp as starters/hevy rotation guys we failed in the off-season, and will be again next spring trying to do an overhaul for 2025 possible home cup appearance. Wedefinately will be a younger, more hungry team, and will have a nice blend of vets...and youngsters

prob wouldnt have been much as he was on his rookie deal still.....cutting him loose to go with a rookie punter maybe not the best use of roster
