Tracker Posted May 20, 2018 Report Share Posted May 20, 2018 As much as Harris has meant to the team and fans, he deserves a two year deal. Good for all concerned- the team, fans and Harris. Mr Dee, wbbfan, Stickem and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly the belief isn't "Winnipeg is a hell hole"anymore if perennial BC lion centerpiece willing parts ways with BC for under 200k and that's amazing. we didnt overpay and I don't think we had to offer him the moon..

Booch Posted May 20, 2018 Report Share Posted May 20, 2018 Harris I can see being a slot receiver into his mid 30's once rb becomes too much to expect from him If a slob like Lewis can do it looking like he did for last 3 years.. Harris can...as Lewis was never ever in the shape and condition Harris is..plus his first 2-3 yes in league Harris had low miles as a feature back MOBomberFan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harris isnt reliant on his quicks, he is well rounded. Given his health through out his career I can easily see him being productive in 2 years. But its football and you never know. But as others point out, he could be a starting slot back for more then 2 years with great ease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point in time I would have to wonder who else would have that size hole at MLBer and the cap space to make it work. But I have no doubt the reputation around the league for the team is very high. All the years and work spent by mos walters n co building around character has put the team into the best position its been in since the prime milt days. If the jets were not back, this team would have a mile long line up for every last ticket every game. SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The nice thing is that he can transition into a 5th receiver/H-back/sometimes tailback kind of role and maybe take a pay cut. Even if he’s not an every down player he’s got the right passport.

That doesnt have the same affect. Many sports fans will be sports hung over from the jets run how ever it ends and the amount of dollars it eats up from the community is high. 8 minutes ago, Atomic said: thomas is interesting. set the nfl combine record for the fastest 3 cone drill. Did really well in agility and jumping drills. And ran a 4.64 40, the slowest at his position, also had the least reps on the bench press of any one who did it. That said he is 185 repping 225 4 times, Mark F 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take a good look at the lions last year, the OL names and some of the coaches run out by bc. The most critical failure of bad teams is failure to recognize and retain good talent.

You will be amazed at how fast this guy is. When he's on your team you tend to notice him more. Lightning quick. Big hitter. Smart. And a quality community service guy.

Colin Unger Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Darren Bauming has reported that the bombers signed Bighill to a 1 year deal paying him 175k. A very good price for such a talent and 4 CFL teams had been vying for his services. blue_gold_84, BigBlueFanatic and Westman Rob 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
