  1. Sears is 6'1 193 pounds so this guy is 3 inches taller and 2 pounds heavier... Sears makes it work. Light? Maybe but.. it's all about how athletic he is, I hear Bryant is a bit slow tho, not fast... not the quickest player in the world... That would be the more concerning part than how tall or how heavy he is. Needs to be able to keep up with these speedy receivers up here, can he? Benton seems like a beast tho. Definitely a MLB candidate there. Also interesting to note but on the Official Bomber site, Quinn Everett, OL is listed on the roster.
  2. TBrack would look good at safety and Mo Leg could either move up to play a DB position or become a LB, I like his size and hitting ability.. Having a guy like Mo Leg closer to the line of scrimmage could only equal good things. Not sure Tbrack tho is someone we'd have much interest in.. I'd offer him a deal but i probably wouldn't go crazy. We have bigger needs to fill elsewhere. That being said, If we have the cap room, heck, go for it.
  3. It's kind of a huge blow to Nashville. Their AHL goalie has been playing well but... It's Hutton time now. I guess if you want to do a comparable here.. and I'm not saying they are equal cuz Rinne is the best goalie in the world but.. Rinne is to Nashville what Hutch is to the Jets and Hutton to Nashville is what Pavelec is to the Jets. Pretty big drop off there in terms of numbers, that being goals against and save percentage and wins for that matter. The only silver lining for the Preds is i believe they only play Eastern teams until the all star break. I believe their schedule is rather soft the next few weeks too.
  4. I guess i can understand the reasoning behind the trade, Henry needs someone to throw the ball too, But giving up Simmons for Price is just brutal really.
  5. Smith eh? was he rostered by the Cowboys? Or was he on their PR? if he was on the PR, i'd suspect it's just a matter of time before he is let go, Thought we let him go because of injury concerns the Cowboys were having, Thought they brought Smith in as an injury replacement, Not sure tho, Don't really care for the Cowboys too much.
  6. Go to the one the one in Grand Forks and it's totally different. Target Canada, good for some things but for the most part was just Zellers with the Target name. That was their problem and people they interviewed who worked there agreed, that the biggest problem was that people were expecting Target Canada to be just like Target USA but what we got was more of a Zellers remake with a Target name attached to it.
  7. Went with a little below average. The reasoning for that being.. I like our depth players, i guess you can call them "non starters"... I'm talking guys like Briggs,Jones,Newman (was injured tho all last year, huge loss IMO), Sherman (good depth player), Thomas (good depth player). Guys like that. There are others too, JFG i suppose is one but we seem to be lacking the high end starting talent, Picard IMO is probably our best Canadian Starter as of today, I like Greaves but i don't think his job is guaranteed, I like Goossen but he's probably a year or 2 away from being Center, might be a guard option tho, I really like Kohlert, very good very consistent player, Watson when health, when healthy, when HEALTHY does probably start on every team in the league but only WHEN HEALTHY.. Neufeld looked good last season but injury issues are a concern. Lirim is Money. Bucknor was quite the surprise actually. Upgrade the starters tho and we'd be maybe average or a bit above average. Add a guy like Heenan and some depth like Hurl or a guy like that and who knows, See what free agency brings. The draft should yield us some talent too so perhaps this time next year, we are average or a little above average. I like the path we are on tho.
  8. Ha great tune there actually. In non Jets related however Central Division related news, UH OH in Nashville.. Pekka Rinne, IMO, the best goalie in the league when he is healthy, numbers back that up too, Out 3-5 weeks with LBI.
  9. Benton sounds like a candidate for the middle linebacker spot. Tackling machine much?
  10. #Bombers add International MAC linebacker Shamari Benton (5-11, 231) and International defensive back Jarrid Bryant (6-4, 195). Per Darren Cameron Tweet
  11. I believe a reporters asked him and he gave the obvious "as long as we are winning, that's all that matters" answer. But deep inside, you gotta think he knows his time in winnipeg is coming to an end.
  12. This is a very good article and really does illustrate just how well the Jets have played this year. Top 3 in possession is huge, it's one of those over looked things but it matters lots.
  13. It makes no sense at all really. Plus we have owned Chicago this year, that might change but so far 2-0 vs them... Dallas has very little chance of catching us and or making the playoffs, they go on these runs this year where they win for a week then they lose for 2.. I'm honestly more concerned about the Chicago game than i am about tonight. IMO, if we play like we did vs LA, ANAHEIM and Flordia, we win this one tonight in a route. Dallas is not good, they are one of the worst defensive teams in the league. That's their issue this year, their D and goaltending is terrible.
  14. The one by Polo, rumor has it, it will be an outlet type of mall, similar to what they are putting up near the seasons of tuxedo. Swear i read on twitter or even the paper that a client (fashion industry) (or even multiple fashion industry "stores" ) are taking that one over.
  15. Start Pav, he has played well the last couple games, Well enough to win at least... We need both of these games and since it's back to back and Hutch has owned Chicago this year, we are 2-0 vs Chicago in Chicago this year, Hutch goes tomorrow. Fun fact: the last week or so the Jets are one of the highest if not the highest scoring team in the league, averaging over 4 goals per game (minus the arizona debacle). Start Pav, he plays well vs Dallas. Start Hutch tomorrow in Chicago. He's 2-0 vs them this season.
  16. saw it too, Believe it said as high as the 5th round even.
  17. What an odd trade, saw it on twitter and laughed. Most Valuable player and most valuable defensive player for a guy who is injured lots. Just what the heck was my thought. The one player i really noticed on Ottawa last season was Jasper Simmons. What a brutal trade really.
  18. Bryant is probably a contender for Bruce Johnsons spot.
  19. 1 or 2 percent sounds right. If that. Only like 100 or so people on the forum.
  20. 3 goals 3 assists in 42 games for Olli so far
  21. Hall, he could be working on that right now. Just cuz it's not announced public ally don't mean it's not done and he isn't working already
  22. Maybe they were all sleeping still when MOAB made his post today. Seriously. Like 930 at that time? Lol. Just chill really and they will announce it when they feel like it. No need to worry. Hall is the man. It's a done deal.
  23. What delay? It's January.
  24. Nichols is a free agent isn't he? Only other QB under contract are Reilly and Pat White. Makes sense to sign lynch. Nichols is probably not in their plans moving forward
