Mince and Cioffi are very good players

Wow, talk about rebuilding your secondary. Am I crazy, or is that a lot of turnover?

Daniel is apparently out of the Esks price range as well .. SOME of these guys might find the money out there is less than what they were expecting (hoping for).

And their agents seem to agree:

 

Bombers not doing much but adding prospects ill call them. 

Dont think they looking receiver.. Would think DB tho. 

They may price themselves out of even moderately high numbers and have to settle in the 140=170k range...teams will be pouncing then

We didnt have to do much.. all our own resignings would have been very sought after.. we have a solid and deep roster..we only need to augment..not overhaul and replace starters like many teams are needing to do

Not too concerned at receiver. I really think Adams and Lawler can explode with Collaros. As far as DB's, id love to see another veteran CFL'er added.

I don't see anywhere that says Cioffi signed. Only Nik Kowalski said that. All I see is a report that says he is linked to Thorpe.

Based on how well they protected their QB last season .. DL should be the least of their priorities...

Shocked Rhymes..Posey..Daniel's.. Walker have yet to sign especially when a lot of money has been spent already

TSN Hamilton says Posey is asking for 200k.

I can see why nobody wants a part of that.

The lack of talk about Rhymes since the season ended is something I find odd.

I think he is just getting started as one of the best.

I think Posey, Rhymes and Walker are all going to have to accept significantly less than what they were expecting.    They are all good receivers, but they aren't difference makers.    There are plenty of good receivers out there both imports and Canadians.

as part of this list, Roosevelt, Simonise, Cory Watson, Chris Matthews, SJ Green, Luke Tasker, Manny Arceneaux, DaVarius Daniels.    Lots of big brand names, although some are past their prime.   Fact is that when there is lots of supply, prices fall.  If a team wants a veteran player, there are plenty.   If they want to go young, the US colleges pump out lots of prospects every year.

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Watson leave to coach somewhere in southern Ontario?not that hes really that relevant during this free agency anyways.

 

31 games?

I do not agree at all that Rhymes is not a difference maker.

I still think Walker is as well. I don't have much time for Posey, he has done relatively little in this league.

Again I like our FA season - WJ, Johnson and Miles

johnson is not my first choice but our scouts have a good eye for DBs

laing and Stephen would have been nice but whatevs

Since when is Derel Walker not a difference maker...  as soon as Chapdelaine came to his senses Walker was dominant again

I'd love to see the Bombers scoop up another proven receiver at what could be a pretty reasonable price if the current market is any indication. Walker would be sick but even Daniels would be a nice addition.

no word on Duran Carter's intention or interest??...lol
