Do the bombers want  Kevin Elliott, Tori Gurley or Vidal Hazelton? 

If yes which one?

If no, why?

IMO I would love to bring in a guy like Tori Gurley he is that type of reciever that will go up and steal the ball from a defender, the type of big play reciever this team hasn't has for a LONG time. In order to win a Championship these are the type of risks i believe we have to take.

spoke to a number for #cfl teams today regarding the receivers cut by @TorontoArgos sounds like @Ticats and @Wpg_BlueBombers investigating

Good grief! If Hammy lands these guys I'll be pissed. They always seem to land the really good receivers and we get, well ...

Doubtful....the guy is always posting motivational quotes on Twitter. 

I understand that WBBFanWest believes that speaking in the 4th person is the way to go.  

Gotten silly, this thread has.

From EdTaits column

Former Argo T.J. Heath was floored to learn his old team had dumped four receivers after Toronto’s loss in Montreal.

“I’m probably just as shocked as they are,” said Heath. “But they’re good players and they’ll end up somewhere very quickly. They’re very good guys. We’re just big kids playing football. We had fun and joked a lot… it was a real good locker room over there and that’s why I think it was so shocking. That’s how the business goes. Hopefully they’ll move forward and continue to play ball.”

Heath said he’d love it if those receivers ended up in Bomber colours.

“They’re very good,” he added. “It’ll be interesting to see where they land. Hopefully we could get one or two of them.”

Because of the competitive nature of Rod Blacks mind, he wants to be the very first to make the signing announcement.

ROD Black is ecstatic that the BOMBERS HAVE SIGNED GURLEY and/or HAZELTIN and/or ELLIOT and/or BATES! Just what we needed! WooooHooooooo! 

Wonder what number he or they will wear?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This hasn't happened yet as far as Rod Black knows. Be he wants to be first to announce something. 

 

*Sigh*

We are not amused.

I'd take Gurley. Everyone else?  They get a big meh from me. I like Gurley tho 

I want Gurley and not just because he is big but because we can have a fan club and wear Gurley boys shirts. That would be cool. 

Understand the attraction....given that we have a number of Gurley types, round these parts.....

As pumped as I was about the last Bomber acquisition, I am equally pessimistic about the net result of the lack of signing Gurley. Eve if Adams comes back in short order, he will still not be in game shape for another game or three, and the horse will be way out of the barn by then. The Bombers will probably still make the playoffs as a crossover, but if they lose three of the next four games, that would make one win in six games and that would be a recipe for disaster. To regain credibility, the Bombers must finish strongly.

Apparently Hazelton is going to sign with the Esks.

One down.....

My preference is Gurly, Elliot, then Hazelton in that order for receiver . Then a monster for the Dline

My fantasy football team name is "Gurley Men"... however I actually just traded Todd Gurley yesterday... so back to the drawing board...

i think we signed one

Elliott signing with Hamilton

Has Hazelton officially signed with Edm?

No

So to Recap...

Elliot: Hamilton
Gurley: Winnipeg
Hazelton: Edmonton (rumour only)

When a team releases 4 receivers and 3 of them are signed (potentially) within 2 days... something seems fishy with the releasing team...

This all pales by comparison with what Jones did in Regina so I don't see it as a big deal. The argos are pooched for this season and they know it. Barker has a way of finding good receivers. I don't think they're worried. Like us, they realize the importance of having a good dressing room atmosphere and if that wasn't happening, for whatever reason, it had to change.

Breaking up the band, so to speak.  I wouldn't have wanted the Bombers to sign more than one of them.  They need to be influenced, not to be an influence.
