  1. Oshea’s biggest weakness is he can’t tell guys it’s time to move on. And I think that’s because as a former player he played until the wheels fell off so he feels these guys deserve to go out on their terms. I don’t like the Kyrie signing but Kyrie was pretty good last year and healthy. He’s a good vet. But yeah I’d like to see new blood also. His biggest coaching weakness is and always will be roster management and not using the rules to their advantage. O’Shea really believes in the C in Canadian football league.
  2. Who is available. I also think center is an important position also. Do we go after the Hamilton guy who had snapping issues cuz not sure Eli is it, is it the 2nd year guy? Neufeld even? A draft pick? Trade? Who knows.
  3. Screams nfl opportunity to me but maybe not.
  4. Broncos are in the super bowl if nix was healthy. Eventho the backup wasn’t the problem. I was a big John Elway fan so used to love the Broncos. Nix is him. Denver will be back with a healthy Nix. Remember a few years ago? The nhl all star game had a goon in it? Can’t remember the name but the fans basically made it happen for him. Yeah. This is that all over again. There are more shadeur D riders than there are Browns fans.
  5. Well. I did the draft simulator 5 times just 2 minutes ago. Jets got 1st 3 times and 3rd twice. McKenna was taken 1st. Keaton Verhoff 3rd. Ran it again and we got 5th and took chase reid. anyways. https://www.tankathon.com/nhl/mock_draft
  6. Ayers is a true linebacker and they had him playing on the DL. So id bring him back to compete at camp for a lb spot cuz dudes a special teams monster. Honestly at this point I’d let Kyrie go and have Woodbey and Shay take his spot and Ayers battle it out with Novak and Jones in the middle with Kramdi or smith maybe old man griffin and some rookies at SAM. Although Kramdi at safety intrigues me now. Personally I don’t think Tony Jones should be gifted his spot as he seems to lack something, I’m not sure what, perhaps being a fan since the lobendahn days I’m expecting more from the middle man. I dunno. I know tho. Lots of tackles. Yup. Lots after gaining 10 yards tho first.
  7. I wonder if you go 3 cdn receivers starting with Wilson and ideally Johnson as your Americans. Gives you some nice roster options and flexibility there. 3 receivers. Brady. 2 oline means only 1 starting cdn on D required and none if you go 3 Canadian oline really.
  8. Yup. The musts have already signed. I wonder if we see any releases? lol.
  9. https://illegalcurve.com/former-winnipeg-jets-defenceman-dustin-byfuglien-finished-25th-in-the-kenora-bass-invitational/ 6 months ago but there’s a pic of buff there.
  10. Mack would be tremendous but I feel he’s gonna get paid a bit 2 much by someone. Edmonton comes to mind. Fajardo is there also. But he’d be a nice get on an incentive laden large signing bonus contract. (Dude was prob gonna be released anyways but had 45k due feb 1st. ) Agreed. I think he’s a good one. Riders be crazy to let him go but maybe he’s under appreciated. I’m not sure but dude is a solid receiver. Almost 1200 yards last year. And almost 800 his rookie year in the league. Pretty solid targets to catches numbers also.
  11. I’d agree with this. Maybe Woods to compete would be ok. Makonzo hasn’t played in a long time and when he last played he got hurt, because of his Canadian status I’d prob bring him to camp but at this point not expecting him to stay healthy
  12. Toews is playing great. Doesn’t lose a face off ever.
  13. No. I’m really not. It’s not my money. I just don’t think paying guys who are old is the answer. I mean it’s pro sports not an office job. Willie hasn’t been good for 2 seasons. He’s a liability and ppl can pretend they will rotate him but for 2 years they haven’t. nothing wrong with having some veterans around. That’s common in all sports. I’m not convinced Willie is a veteran leader tho I’d want the young guys following after. Because there’s no accountability for Willie. Dude literally gives up on plays, that’s not good veteran leadership
  14. Generally we beat Florida in Winnipeg. Like overall we are 55 32 and 5 or something in our history vs Florida but since moving to Winnipeg I’m not sure we have lost to Florida in Winnipeg.
  15. My daughter and I certainly did. We froze on the way to the rink and we even got a ride. Free tickets right. Minus 40 or not, I’m a take advantage. Go Jets Go.
  16. I’m meh on Willie. I personally think he’s the laziest football player I’ve ever seen play football in my life. Dude literally gives up on plays and does nothing the past couple of years, now that could be a result of scheme or who he has been playing beside but nah, it’s not. I’m ok with one of Willie or Vaughters and guess they decided Willie. If both are brought back then I’m gonna prob think they didn’t learn anything. Seems like maybe kolo and Jake getting the blame for last year and they were only 2 of the problems. Willie was another. Willie at 130 150k I could live with. Willie close to 200 I’d be concerned. Battle eh. Any relation to Greg? Doesn’t appear to be but good last name.
  17. I think Amanda Seyfried is better looking. I’m chasing her.
  18. But it’s his dream. It probably is a pipe dream but it’s his pipe dream. Obviously it’s not about money since dude being paid peanuts the past year now.
  19. Jets are Atlanta tho. They can have the old jets records all they want but this versions history is in Atlanta just like Utah’s history is in Arizona so it be silly to ignore.
  20. Regardless. It makes no sense. But no I didn’t. I dunno @iHeartill give you props for being a good fan but sometimes you are a little off. It’s all good tho. I appreciate the fandom. Maybe they ask Nyquist to play and he finally scores a goal. ask Ilya kovakchuk tho. That would be cool.
  21. Let’s pretend you are 23 and a QB and you’re trying to live your dream cuz that’s what this is. A kid trying to live his dream. Now try again.
  22. Unless picking first, he’s not going to be a Jet.
  23. Why would Helle play in an alumni game. Prob Chris mason and or hutch cuz 1 lives here and 1 not far from here. Pav is in Europe. 7 announced tho Buff. Thorbs. Perreault. Ladd. Little. Wheeler. Stastny. id hope for Toby and slater. I’d maybe ask teemu and maybe tkachuk if he’s not morbidly obese. Mark stuart also but he’s an asst coach in the league
  24. That would require the cfl to actually market the league and that is something they refuse to do. Basically the cfl is Winnipeg. We are a bunch of small little cities combined into one. People in st Boniface aren’t the same as people in fort Gary. It’s up to fort gary to promote itself. Just like in the cfl it’s up to wade and crew to promote the bombers, there’s nothing they can do to help Toronto or Edmonton. It’s a crazy cycle. CFL needs to do more. They basically do minimum
