Well, this sorta, kinda sounds vague.....

From the official BB website: Bombers add Receiver and Defensive Back The Winnipeg Blue Bombers announce today the club has added import defensive back Stephon Morris and import wide receiver Jason Barnes. Both players attended the club’s mini-camp in Florida a couple of weeks ago.

Goossen's drop in the ratings is a real surprise. If he's still available in the second round, he might be worth trading up for.

6 and 12 would be at the low end of the probable scale and 8 and 10 is being overly optimistic unless one of the QBs steps forward and really shines. not impossible, but unlikely.

What?!!? 9000?!?! I'm expecting a 9-9 record. I have several reasons to be this optimistic. Do these reasons come in capsule form?

Welcome to the dark side of the American dream- the American nightmare.

That is a Terrelle pun ... just the way I like them So......you like to be pun-ished?

I think this would be a far more productive discussion after training camp breaks. Right now there are so many ifs and maybes for almost every team in the league that its totally unrealistic to even take a shot.

He looks like a blue-chip prospect, as long as he hasn't had any Pryor convictions........

They could then suspend Glenn and not pay him. And then Ottawa would hold all the cards until Glenn retires or caves.

Could all be just a wild Goossen chase.

Considering how porous the O-line was for the past couple of years, we gotta go with the big horses.

Were we really losing because the rookie Americans weren't good enough though? I thought you guys all liked to point to lack of veterans and NIs as the big problem? Too much blind hatred going on. We were losing because almost every facet of the team wasn't good enough- not the general manager, the coaches, the scouts, the drafting and most of the players. There's enough blame to go around, so line up.

A note of reality: coaches like Hufnagel and Kent Austin who are immediately successful are very, very rare. With that in mind, as much as we would like to see O'Shea wipe the field with every opposing team, we are probably headed for a up and down season. If we get to 9 and 9, that would be wonderful, and making the playoffs would send fans into ecstatic rapture, but the odds are against us, what with so many changes and new faces. As a follower of this team for several decades, some seasons, the best we could hope for is to not be humiliated too often, to still be in the game at half-time and have the team be seen as trying hard. Therefore, let us not lose our senses of ha-ha- it will be a long season, and we are going to need all the patience and humour we can get.

Or, its "jump before you get pushed".

Montreal can't officially sign him until next month. That would make him Ocho Cinco de Mayo.

Come on, folks. Football is a sport and sports are meant to entertain, and this will be entertaining. How well Etcheverry does will also give us an idea of how sharp our new coach's acumen is. Sort of two spectacles for the price of one, besides- compared to last couple of seasons, how could it possibly be worse?

McGrath seems to have a very positive attitude- not bemoaning missing out on the NFL fantasy at all. And his credentials seem impressive, so I will pick him to come in to camp and blow his competition away.

Or a substandard British vehicle. Or a substandard British vehicle. This prone gentleman looks like a Prisoner.

Or a substandard British vehicle.

I think this is called "high risk, high reward" and the last big proponent was a rookie head coach we had named Jeff Reinbold. Not a history to inspire confidence.

Good to see that the Marvellous one is doing well... If he makes it here, we have to name him "Captain".

At the time of the combine Coombs said he put on 10lbs of muscle. Brian Dobie said he has put on about 20lbs total since training this offseason. If Ottawa takes Lavertu, I would not at all be opposed to taking Coombs. Do we really need a NI running back who gets two touches per year?
