  1. Hey, Bluedawg... nice mock. The two o-linemen from BC will get drafted and spend some time in the States, Theo probably longer than Gio in my opinion.
  2. Totally agree with you Pete... I limit my visits and comments on this site as there are a few in here who wish to control the board with their views, roll their eyes at others and feel their feedback only matters. What collection of individuals.
  3. Again, your only looking at your point of view, which you should and can. But, from my point I look at the prospects listed, not where they will fall in draft order, but who they are and how they would be of value to the Bombers position wise, player wise or a "fit". As I mentioned yesterday, over the past years I do start looking at prospects in Nov including time leading up to the draft (who are they, what are their strengths or weakness, their numbers, etc). There is no one, who is going to get it bang on, from #1 to #72 and I'm not looking for that either. As far as your comments which I read, I will pat you on the back, well done!! As far as yesterday's mock, I don't agree with some of Hodge's suggestions for the Bombers and leave it at that. And if you ask the question, do I have a mock for the Bombers, I say, yes (starting with position need and then player choices for those needs). But very much different to what you saw yesterday on 3 Down. In closing, I do see value in what Hodge's and others provide in their mocks, it means something to me. To you perhaps not so much, besides those that side with you. I also believe there are others, besides me who like these mocks. Maybe there is a split here, right down the middle.
  4. I like your comments and agree. Mocks are mocks and in my case I further use them to get myself familiar with the prospects who are available for the year. I do research the current crop of prospects starting in Nov of each year and use the mock(s) as a guide and look to see if I'm way out. In some cases don't agree with the positions/players the Bombers would select as proposed, but still do find/use it as a tool for my purposes. I enjoyed reading/looking at these mocks. Good on the guys who do them!!!! But, there are a few of the self pro-claimed experts in here and a few others that will band together if self pro-claimed experts are challenged in here. They love to shoot this/these mock(s) down as was the case last year as well. I actually would like to see their mock draft(s) as I asked one of them to provide.
  5. Also last years draft pic Max Charbonneau who was at camp, went back to U of Ottawa attained OUA first team linebacker all star status, as well as second team special teams would/should be a teams prospect. Secondly, Jared Beeksma linebacker, 2022 5th round pick by Hamilton, has a special teams background (snapper) has been in the Bomber camp since last summer. The Bombers have in house talent available, I believe.
  6. The 48 hour window is here (Bomber player/Walters conversation), those who want to re-sign should be done anything time (Gray), those that don't will be free on Feb 13th at 11am our time...
  7. Edge guys in Okpoko, Hergott & Brubacher could draw some interest.
  8. It's called bargaining and see who breaks... Agents motive is to fill their pockets/ satisfy client's interest, care little about the fanbase.
  9. I hope the Bombers have been contacted JK, now that Jeffcoat is exploring other options contacting*
  10. Use the 8th pick on either Wallace, Manu or Bosse go with 4 Cdn o-line, with Gray as a tackle.
  11. It's Toronto, pleanty of cash available for a salary or bonus... even fly to Wpg for a hockey game!
  12. Careful what you wish for, I don't know if there is that perfect/non miss kicker.... If you watched football last week, you would have heard the phrase "wide right" which involved a kicker. Now a few years ago, after Medlock retired/left us and we were searching for a kicker near completion of the 2019 season as the kicking game needed to improve. There was an out cry by a some on here to get Cdn status Lirim Hajirullaha back after he had been dumped by the Bombers a few years prior. Enter Castillo to the rescue and win us a cup. Now, fast forward a few years, a repeat again (as above), this time it was Leggs is a problem, as Castillo wanted bigger money elsewhere. I'm not saying Leggs didn't have issues, but I can see another season(s) of discussion about a need for a kicker, after Castillo looks for bigger $$$ or the spring league. I do hope we sign Castillo as you mention. But in the real world of sports, kickers do miss at the worst of times, included those that have kicked for the Bombers (past & present), including Money Medlock or Leggs.
  13. Thank you for your thoughts. I agree with many of your comments that you have made. I believe many true Blue Bomber supporter truly don't want to see Brady/Dalton walk away from our team, I sure don't want to see that. The fans of the team understand when it comes to money matters and what's best for the team, the team does come first. For Brady/Dalton they both know that of the fans/team (both have looked up in the stands and seen the support for them & the team), but they need to look out for themselves right now, the team comes in second, until they sign. Of course, the unknown waiting game has the true Blue Bomber supporters edgy, testy among themselves (I'm seeing it here). The process of entertaining so called NFL interest or thoughts of future outside opportunities, have many of the supporters showing frustrations during this timeframe (count me in that group). It seems to be a much slower key signing process this year than past couple years. I have said this of the Blue Bomber Organization in the past, they will get it done, one way or another this year as well and I will support the Bombers up in the stands.
  14. Well, chasing a dream is one thing and many of us wish you all the best. But if that dream of the NFL isn't there, do the right thing and sign on the dotted line sooner than later. Your home team Brady, needs to sign a team of players.
  15. Well said...I haven't particpated on this site for the past couple years. I still read the comments and raise my eyebrow every so often. It is what it is!!!
  16. Mtl probably looking @ Bemiy... I hope he falls to 8
  17. Agree with you Colin... I get excited about the CFL & stuff that leads up to the draft, free agency and times when we are in the off-season. The CFL in general, I truly enjoy. Now what you have mentioned above is so accurate and I really like your response. Will these prospects make the team, who knows, but there have been prospects throughout that were found in the past that were unknowns or weren't given a snow balls chance in making a team. There should be excitement given the success the Bombers have had with the drafting, recruiting over the past few years and taking into consideration the position that the Bombers have been selecting.
  18. Wow!!! Why do you watch, then? Still waiting for your Mock Draft.
