BigBlueFanatic reacted to Wanna-B-Fanboy in Free Agency 2016...
Not the same situation:
Wily is South of 30 with many years ahead of him as franchise QB.
Burris is north of Methuselah's age, probably in his final year for Harris to Transition into Franchise QB.
So no, "Desjardin schooling Walters again" is a silly thing to say.

Willy + Nichols = no Harris
Burris + 40 years = Harris

Waggoner with a year of experience under his belt is worth a top 3 pick IMO

BigBlueFanatic reacted to Engelwood in Free Agency 2016...
Except Waggoner would be a top 3 pick this year anyways

BigBlueFanatic reacted to iso_55 in Buck Pierce to be named QB coach
If Buck's issue is something related to that then we should just leave the guy alone & let him coach.

BigBlueFanatic reacted to The Unknown Poster in Buck Pierce to be named QB coach
I believe suffered from serious stuttering and worked to overcome it. So when he struggles a bit its that infliction that he is overcoming. If you know anyone who suffers it's pretty awful. Buck has worked hard to overcome it.

Team might like him but we need to get better there, sherritt is better, laurent not only boosts the dline but covers the NI spot left behind. No more he did ok players, we need upgrades

BigBlueFanatic reacted to Noeller in Dressler Signs with Bombers
Moore was coming off one year in BC. Weston Dressier is a CFL All Star and widely recognized as one of the best players in the league. I'm not saying there's no risk, but don't call it similar to when we signed Moore....

Don't you know that someone's responses in a press conference are the only determining factors in establishing his personality!

BigBlueFanatic reacted to JuranBoldenRules in Dressler Signs with Bombers
I'd stick with Adams and hope some recruits turn out over Stafford. What we need is a solid guy on the boundary. Stafford isn't that guy, he's like a Nick Moore with worse hands. Wouldn't waste cap space on him.

BigBlueFanatic reacted to Noeller in Dressler Signs with Bombers
We're paying him less than we were paying Moore....and we're getting a clear upgrade at the position. I see this as SAVING money on an upgrade,.....

BigBlueFanatic reacted to Mr Dee in Around The League Off Season Discussion
Good. Get this out of the way early. Focus on receivers we can actually get.
You said it yourself. Hardly anybody here saw Carter ending up with Winnipeg. He was going to Montreal unless somebody paid him big, big bucks. Turns out somebody did - Montreal.
Walters can't win in your eyes - don't go for him...get criticized. Go for him, don't get him...get criticized.
It makes sense to inquire about Carter, but it makes more sense to not make him the highest paid rec. in the league on our team. We need more pieces than just a receiver.
I don't believe there's anyone who believed this is a fail on Walter's part, so why bring it up?

BigBlueFanatic reacted to Brandon in Buff or Trouba
Apparently Ducky has selective memory... when we had traded for him last year it was looked upon as a fantastic deal and both papers and on here everyone kept talking about what a great contract we got with him...

BigBlueFanatic reacted to New_Earth_Mud in Buff or Trouba
Ive said over and over... being a soft player doesent make you a bad player. Ive never said i dont like soft players.
I also never said anything about Myers being a hardnose hard hitting player. What i said was hes a big young kid that plays his position well he can skate and move the puck hes got size and uses it well and has a great contract. His contract actually allows us to put towards others as we need. Hes not hurt alot and can play big min. Hes not in anyway a liability to us at all. Hes pretty much what every team wants.
It would IMO be a horrible move to trade him for RNH.

BigBlueFanatic reacted to Noeller in Bombers "close to" deal with Dressler
Bullshit. Winnipeg has plenty of bargaining chips. As we've heard over and over, the stadium itself is a huge draw. I believe the coaches, to a degree, are a draw. Then we heard from Westerman last year that when they were trying to recruit him they "run things like an NFL organization". Nobody's saying it's perfect right now but we're not a place everyone's avoiding.

BigBlueFanatic reacted to GCn20 in Bombers "close to" deal with Dressler
By your parameters, and I'm not saying they are correct, we easily offer the most in 3 of your 4 top criteria. We will probably offer Dressler the most money, the best geography for him, and the best on field opportunity. This is who this discussion is about, after all.

BigBlueFanatic reacted to SPuDS in Bombers "close to" deal with Dressler
Wild and to a lesser extent newman as well could be added to the list as prized or at least sought after players that were held at gun point... Er i mean willingly decided to come play for the bombers..
Wonder if it sucks when reality clashes with a point you're attempting to make..

BigBlueFanatic reacted to Mark F in Is the theory recruiting receiving should be ''easy'' a myth?
Did you see the Denver receivers dropping many passes the other day? Players that make millions?
People think Moore didn't do enough for what he got paid.... he regularly went up for bad passes, and regularly got killed and injured for his work. So the complaint was ... he's injured too much. yeah, cause he's doing his job. look at the beating that some of the other bombers took this year. Kohlert, for instance.
Chances of getting clobbered are very high, and I suspect a lot of players aren't that interested in getting maimed going for a tough catch.
tough to find guys that want to do that.

BigBlueFanatic reacted to Taynted_Fayth in Bombers Sign INT WR Ricky Collins
especially if Richards finally comes into play. Im really hoping for big things from him and waggoner this year

BigBlueFanatic reacted to sweep the leg in Bombers Sign INT WR Ricky Collins
Adams is a respectable 3rd option in a receiving corp.
-
BigBlueFanatic reacted to Mike in Bombers Sign INT WR Ricky Collins
100% agree.
Your third option needs to be capable of 100+ yard games, but not relied upon to do it game in and game out. Adams can do that and he adds the extra benefit of being a very capable red zone target.
