Well that loss stung last night. Not happy with the decision to kick the FG but that can be discussed elsewhere  All in all there was a lot of improvement this year over last year and looking like they are trending upwards. If Walters can pull off another great draft and some more key FAs this offseason I like our chances going into 2017. Who is on the FA watch list and what areas are we in desperate need of fixing?

I think Jordan Reeves' problems started many years ago, back when he first found out that his parents, for whatever reason, named his sister.....Regina. 

Instant trauma.

I wonder if that and the current regimes emphasis on "character" is why he was released. 

If the Bombers had known about the arrest I doubt he would have been at TC. And if they thought he had character issues then I doubt he would have made it to the final cuts of TC.

He was arrested early 2016 and cut early 2016 could have been when they found out. It was the 2015 tc and PR he was here.

Reaves was cut by us in June 2015 & signed by the Riders in January 2016.  His arrest was months after he was Bomber property.

"He played in two pre-season games as a wide receiver and recorded one catch for six yards. Reaves was part of the team's final cuts on June 20, 2016."

 

what i was going by

Wikipedia is often incorrect.

I stand corrected.

From the Riders website:

Quote

PRO: Signed with the Riders in January, 2016…signed with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in April, 2015.

So he was arrested around the same time he signed with the Riders.

Ah. That tells me that he had to get poop-faced to deal with the humiliation.

I like it man. Hope next version contains "right down Main Street" and "venerable". 

Just caught  an interview with Kevin Fogg on the CFL site...What a great guy to have on the club...As well as being a very talented db and returner he has an attitude every player should have...Obviously great  things await Kevin in the coming years here...He luvs playing for the Bombers and it sure shows...He sings as well and has a pretty good voice....who knew...Apparently Denmark has a recording studio where a few of the players hang out...Clarence and Kevin definitely have got it right and glad they're Bombers.

While I enjoy Taylor's attempts to bring greater statistical analysis to the CFL, it might be time to point out to him that "Points Above Expected" isn't a real stat, and Maher's 82% FG accuracy made him the 6th best kicker in a 9 team league last season.

8th best if you want to include McCallum and Early.

Apparently the Browns agree with Taylor's analysis

Since when do the Browns count as a real football team?

Paul Depodesta at work

And of course 10 years from now the Browns will have 4 Superbowl rings and sportswriters will trace it all back to the day Brent Maher was signed.

I feel like they are on the right path. They have eight picks in the first two rounds this year and next 28 overall. Much like the Cowboys in the late 80's. If they can find a QB in the next two drafts they will get better.

At least they are trying to build their OL.  Always a good place to start.

So Hamilton has put both RG3 and Colin Kaepernick on their neg list according to Justin Dunk respectively.
