As per team.

WINNIPEG, MB., October 6, 2016 –   The Winnipeg Blue Bombers today announce the club has signed International wide receiver Tori Gurley.

Gurley (6-4, 230, South Carolina, November 22, 1987 in Rock Hill, SC) has spent the past two seasons with the Toronto Argonauts. In 2015, Gurley finished tied for the CFL lead in receiving touchdowns with nine, while hauling in 58 receptions for 791 yards. In ten games this season for Toronto, Gurley recorded 36 receptions for 509 yards and five touchdowns.

Prior to joining the Argos in June of 2015, Gurley had spent the previous four seasons in the NFL, including time with the Green Bay Packers, Buffalo Bills, Cleveland Browns, Oakland Raiders, Minnesota Vikings, San Diego Chargers, and Tampa Bay Buccaneer. In 27 games at South Carolina, he caught 76 passes for 910 yards and six touchdowns with the Gamecocks.

Good stuff. He was my first choice of the three.

I'm a fan. But do we need him????  of course we do.

 

 

 

I like it.

I'm tired of the Bombers taking so long to make these moves.  This should have been done YESTERDAY.

The only one of the three I wanted. He's a great receiver and he's exactly what we needed - a red zone monster.

Atta boy Walters.....Now you're cookin'...Just what the doctor ordered for our run in the playoffs....Had me doubts...but they have been alieved..

Boom! Running with the big dawgs again! Way to go Walters!!!

not even sure why we bothered at this point, if he was still available today it's obviously because nobody wanted him.

Whew... finally- now those that *****, can stop about this.

Yes!!! Great signing. Hopefully he gets into the lineup soon.

Only one fly in the ointment...does anyone know if he has nfl aspirations or can we lock him up for a few years??

Anyone get released?  Denmark?  Mayo?

He's 28. Would the NFL still come calling?

He's 28 and hasn't exactly lit up the CFL thus far.  I doubt the NFL is even on the radar anymore.

I would assume this is a deal for more than just this season

 

Quite honestly though, Gurley reminds me a lot of Derrick Armstrong. I hope that's what kind of signing this turns out to be.

I want Elliott now....

Seriously though, what is the best option for the DL out there now??? Anyone floating around or on the cusp of being released from the NFL (besides the usual two that are never coming)?  

 

 

 

 

 

Excellent news. Great week for the Bombers offense. Gurley's the big bodied receiver PLAP's offense needed. Harris and McDuffie look to be back. Back to back with BC doesn't look quite as bad as it did last week.

No chance he's in the lineup this week but maybe next week.

Gurley - Dressler - Smith - Denmark - Kohlert

**** that looks like a pretty damn good lineup to me

Excellent signing. Now if Adams ever gets healthy.. Watch out! Would love to see a core of Adams, Gurley, Denmark, Dressler and Kohlert/FDG Now that would be scary!

Exactly Mike....Big Country returns....Why he didn't work out for the arenogoods I don't know ....what I do know is that this guy can catch and motor..

I'd release mayo,Denmark has been nothing but clutch and efficient ever since he's been back.

Why?

 

Hopefully MOAB heard this news soon enough to get him off the ledge.
