blue_gold_84 Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 Pretty shocking move the Als. Woods won't sit for long, IMO. He's a damn good player. wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be a lot more comfortable if Knox/Temple had some starting experience. I like how the Stamps do it.... bring in a vet and cut him if the rookie is better, ala MLBs Reed and Singleton last year.

Noeller Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 I think it's just a situation where maybe it's too late for the Bombers to just switch gears. They've had a plan for awhile, and now a day into TC it's pretty tough to just switch it up and change everything. Whether right or wrong, I think they're going to stay the course they've been on all off-season... TBURGESS, Mr Dee, SPuDS and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickthesizz Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 (edited) Sounds like the Als probably have a young guy they like, likely a salary cut. At least they did it now to give him a chance to catch on with another team before the end of TC. Edited May 29, 2017 by Gotmilt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't mind seeing Woods, but Walters/Oshea seem to know what they're doing. Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We both agreed that this decision should have been made before training camp. Unfortunately, things weren’t done that way.

I’d like for us to do it in a different way next time, just out of respect for the player.” CFL News - -"There was no attempt to trade him (@TheBEAR45)." - Kavis Reed. #CFL #AlsMTL via @MTLAlouettes Edited May 29, 2017 by Mr Dee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is their current LB crew. Chris Ackie (N) Nicolas Boulay (N) Chip Cox (I) Kyries Hebert (I) Tabari McGaskey (I) Frederic Plesius (N) Anthony Sarao (I) They are apparently high on Sarao.

Taynted_Fayth Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 I would have also like Venable back in FA as i thought Montreal had one of the best LB corps in the league. But the argos grabbed him. I'd hate for them to grab woods too despite how likely it will be for them. I'm still hoping we at least make an inquiry. Woods at MLB potentially gives us one of the best D's in the league. Fredrick/Johnson/Loffler/Heath/Randle Wild/Woods/Leggett Westerman/Nevis/Thomas/Okpalaugo dare to dream.... rebusrankin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
