Perhaps a 250 base with incentives? Either way, I think the decision to go to Ottawa came with promises to become the starter sooner rather than later.

It would be a huge blow to what we are trying to build if we can't retain him. I don't have high hopes he'll resign without checking out what's available to him first.

That's about it. We've too bad for too long for the fan version of PTSD to just shake off.

Hopefully Harris rolls for 200 all purpose against them next week.

Also, check out the OL. Everyone along the line - other than Stanley Bryant - is 26 or younger. If you take out Hardrick, who isn't starting right now, they're all 25 or younger. Assuming we don't make any coaching changes going into next season - they are going to have a lot of time to row together.

Assuming everyone continues to play as we have come to expect, we're going to have to make some cost/benefit decisions in our secondary. Johnny Adams will be an expensive second contract. Chris Randle is one of our best players but has had injuries pile up a little - do we re-sign him? Bruce Johnson isn't going anywhere for at least a couple years. Solid HB's are hard to find. Good vet to have back there. And he previously signed an extension through the 2018 season. But Fogg, Frederick, and Roberts are all great finds and are all under contract for at least next season, maybe also to 2018. DLine has a smaller window of our known starters. Cummings will be hard to resign. He's a big contract - we may need the cap room. Shologan is older, and I have no idea what contract length he signed for, but his body should still hold up for a couple more years. Westerman has one year on his contract after this one, we'll see what happens over the next year and a half. Cole looks like he's a good find, but has already been in and out of the line up with injury. Green will hopefully learn to put his athleticism to good use - he's been very hit or miss in limited time. I agree that Martin looks like an intriguing signing. Corney has slipped into the background a bit after a very loud training camp, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Love our LBs. Starters and depth. Wild, Bass, and Leggett aren't going anywhere. We love them, they love us. Knox and Waggoner are exciting ST'rs. The fact is, "Dynastys" are built in the post-season. If they can carry our offense to the Grey Cup, and Walters can keep scouting to replenish the older vets (especially along the line, which isn't complete as is), they have some serious potential here.

Odd number of teams. Every week has someone out.

We were the last available team with an open spot when we made that trade, so I guess it depends on how it goes down. at the moment, there are multiple teams with starting QB up for grabs and he might want the opportunity to choose his opportunity.

His rights don't mean anything if he wants to go to free agency.

I can't imagine the cancer he'd be as a back up. no thanks.

I want to say that most teams keep only one OL on the game day roster. Teams would rather have an extra player available for ST and defensive roatations than an extra guy who only plays on occasions where 2 OL are injured.

I don't understand this comment. Bombers are 2-0 under Nichols, how do you equate that to a .500 ball club? Not trying to suck back the kool aid and say we're going to be amazing all of a sudden, but where is your projection coming from? And I really don't get your comment on our back up QBs. Why are we keeping our depth? Should we cut everyone on our roster who isn't a starter) what are you talking about?

He would have thrown so many fits in this market.

I was flipping back and forth between this and the Jays game. I can't sit through that many penalties for a non-Bomber game. not sure what your referring to, must have missed that field goal attempt - my understanding was 3 if it deflects in, dead ball otherwise.

"Those guys on the panel always got things to say about me...I've turned around 4 teams in this league....to all those doubters out there, shove it"

And 50 yards is Medlocks's range.

And being in field goal range is not the same as being in the red zone

It's an off season problem though. I don't see a scenario where Drew doesn't see the the field again. Maybe he makes the most of it, maybe he doesn't. But it's too early to roll with a bunch of question marks, especially with the entire coaching staff fighting for their jobs. And that's another can of worms - the coaching staff doesn't care about the salary cap - I doubt MOS wants Walters to throw Willy away.

No one has ever questioned his ability to be a great ST coach. For better or for worse, he views it as a full third of the game and spends a lot of practice time on teams.

Do you mean to write these nice little blog posts? because we have a few more people out there actually scouting.

There aren't really "others". ourbombers is the original (as far as I know) but has died. The Extra Point replaced it and also has a dominate handful of people, but there is discussion. morningbigblue is the only alternative to TEP.

That guy retired his jersey for this coming season.

They're not going to give up Harris, are you crazy?

This is what seems to happen to us: lets say we fire MOS. but we give Walters one more coaching hire, even though Sunderland seems to be a promising guy, available for promotion, our guy needs one more opportunity. New coach also craps the bed, Walters fired, Miller on the look out for a new GM to turn the organization around. Unfortunately, while we were giving Walters one more year, Sunderland had been hired somewhere else and we're forced to conduct an exhaustive search which results in us promoting Danny Mac to GM.

It's not so bad. At least we wont get screwed over with the 2nd overall pick like the last couple of years. We deserve #1.
