CFL.ca’s Marshall Ferguson projects the first two rounds of the 2026 CFL Draft following the CFL Combine presented by Anytime Fitness Canada.

Another mock to mock.

Not sure about the rest of you but I'm desperate for some CFL news

On what the bombers do for amateur football, this story just came out today

Winnipeg Blue Bombers report $1.2 million investment into...

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers have released their community impact report for 2025, featuring an investment of just over $1.2 million into amateur football. The

Please just let something else interesting happen so this board can move on from this topic

Elgersma is shitting all over the CFL. He acts like he's too good to play up here. That's becoming obvious to more & more people so hence the negative reaction.

What the hell are you talking about. He hasn't said anything negative about the CFL. He's just trying to land a spot down south.

Edmonton Elks, Winnipeg Blue Bombers awarded extra picks...

The Edmonton Elks and Winnipeg Blue Bombers have been awarded extra picks in the 2026 CFL Draft, the league office has confirmed to 3DownNation. Each year,

Bombers get an extra pick at 20.

Not sure if any other picks have moved but that would put the Bombers at 4, 13, 20, 24 for the first three rounds.

Rhymes would fit the need for sure. ZC could use a big guy to go get jump balls on the outside.

pretty bad dynamics that a HC would succeed to another players bitching....and that sure doesnt sound FIFO 'sh to me of ZC....Maybe some players should have berated his crap play/errors and got him parked on bench...should go both ways ....no?....sad state that apparently is

Or maybe the second year player was making too many mistakes so the coach benched him.

Hope Clercius can take the next step this season. Lots of tools. Look great at times, but something happened where he felL out of favour

Any actual proof?

None because this isn’t even what was reported. It was reported that Clercius made some mistakes and was criticized by Collaros for those mistakes. No where has it been reported that Clercius criticized Collaros.

He criticized a Collaros throw and was benched for the playoffs.

I thought it was the other way around. Collaros wasn’t happy with something about Clercius’ play.

Clercius isn't slow. 4.5 speed, one of the fastest few in his draft year. Almost the same speed as Mital. He plays the spot he does because he's also outlier strong with great size and tremendous blocking skill.

Clercius may have run a 4.5 but he looks slow out there.

JSK is two years younger and better than Wilson, so I don't hate it.

Don't know why they re-signed Wilson still though

True but what caused this post?

The Factor returning to the league

McManis hasn't agreed to terms in Hamilton yet has he? 

No room for him really but he's a baller.

I don’t see how Woodbey and Griffin both get on the roster this year unless we use the roster rules appropriately … or start Kramdi at safety, I guess.

We have 4 DA spots, two of them should be Castillo and Vaval and then you gotta HOPE one of them is on the DL …

I would hope at the expense of Kyrie but I'm not holding my breath on that one.

KeeSean Johnson re-signs for two years in SK- $215k and $220k. That’s a steal.

That's a great deal for the Riders. Bastards.

I like Mack a lot but he's 5'10" and injury prone... That's concerning. 

And without knowing what any of the contract details are for guys we signed, it's impossible to say we have no money. Could be a bunch on the '25 cap... Could be a bunch of Appearance Fee money... It's not time to whine just yet. 

Mack is over 6 feet no?

Yes. We need that alpha target, game on the line, makes the big catch. Demski is a great player, Wilson is a very good player but we need someone to replace what we lost in Lawler. Austin Mac is that guy. 

Ya Mack is the make a big play on the ball down field guy. Would be a good fit with ZC

Don't get the Kyrie signing at all. Hope he came cheap and there is more than a 1% chance he'll be cut if he's out played in TC

I'd be happy bringing in one of Rhymes, Hardy, or White. Overpaying? Depends on the market. None of those guys are going to get Lawler money.

Sounds like Hardy re-signed in Ottawa unfortunately. 

Rhymes would fit the need for a big outside receiver. I like what I've seen from Robustelli from Sask too. He could be ready to break out. 

Mack now available too

This is so childish. You’re talking about his career like your feelings on the topic have any relevance. 

No kidding. The guy is 23 years old. One opportunity down south could be life changing money. He hasn't said a negative word about the CFL or the Bombers and he's just exhausting his options.

wonder how much campbell got from the riders 

I would guess Tyrell Ford money

I think they are worried that Sergio punting would affect his kicking. 

Almost no one does all three jobs any more.

Yep, the litmus test will be free agency. If he does well, I'll change my tune. Until then, nope. Bringing Thomas & Hogan back as coaches is a big red flag for me. 

Osh hires the assistant coaches

Not sure about Logan. His SMS was reported at $107K. Obviously if Vaval comes back then we're looking for a PR player as injury insurance and development on an ELC.  Saving $26K on Logan not a big deal but we don't know if he's asking for more either. There will always be DB's, receivers looking to win a spot that includes depth as a returner.

Logan showed nothing at returner last year. Don’t see a need to pay him at all. 
 

No real need for a backup American RB on the roster, better to find a DB or WR that can return if Vaval signs down south

Teams are using up what's left of the cap money from this season before January 1st. I'm hoping we still have some money left over for players we'd like back & not given to deadweight veterans who shouldn't be here. I'd like to see Sergio Castillo back for sure. But this is Kyle Walters our GM we're talking about. He's just as likely to sign him as to let him walk. 

I have no idea what this means. Walters is just as likely to sign someone or let them walk? Every GM signs some guys and lets some walk. That’s how it works

anyway you slice it...an upgrade and we can only benefit from his hire...Hopefully he realizes he has a feature back to ride, as he tends to neglect the run and force the passing game, and based on BO comments I'm sure he would not have signed here yet...if at all if he didnt get some input and or re-assurance that Condell is gonna use him as the focal point of his offence...He was likely agreed as OC before BO...and Demski signed

Can't discount that he knows Zach too. 

Hell maybe he'll bring Hardy with him as a bonus
