Kyle Walters isn't playing around. A ton of great signings. I like have Taylor and Matson back on D and who doesn't love Miller on STs?

Kyle Walters is on fire this week. A lot of SOLID signings. Looking forward to see what he does in filling the gaps and shoring up the depth.

Happy we have him.

Think they can get Sayles back and maybe get Johnson to reup secondary would be looking good.

It's a very good day for signings.

Love the physicality Maston and Taylor bring to our defensive backfield.

Yup. We want Sayles back. 
Kongbo too, please. 

Keeping that roster in tact. Walters is a beauty.

The conductor has his baton slowly raising and everyone is taking their places, solid moves by Walters this team will be more than ready to defend

Taylor came in last year and fit like a glove into that D. It's crazy that we were able to add him during the year. I'm glad he's back. 

 

And Miller? Best special teams player ever? Certainly in the conversation, I believe. This is such a lowkey re-signing to the average fan but it's means so much. 

No these are the best kind of signings,  high quality depth players that I will assume didn't cost us an arm and a leg.   Signing 10 of these types of players will get us much further then making a couple of splashy high price free agent signings.

Or giving big money to Cody fajardo.

 

 

..................and the band played on, more solid signings from Walters and Company 

I'm excited about Gray. Not because he's shown a lot on the field, as he hasn't had much of an opportunity, but rather as a test of the process. He could have walked into the starting line-up of another team and, probably, got more money. But, he obviously believes in management and the coaches. Helps that he's at home, no doubt. 

Most underrated player in the league........

Another great signing! 

It's the Jeff-ends that will bring opposing QBs to tears!

 

I hate these one year deals though.

The day gets better and better, really who doesn't want to play for the Bombers. Walters is doing things that a few said he would have problems doing

While not the freak athlete Willie is he might be the more talented than him. Has never played 18 games will be interesting to see if he can this year. 30 sacks between the two is not out of the question.

I've always viewed the Bryant signing as the inflection point when our offensive line really started to actually become a force. Others have come and gone, but he's been a staple throughout the rebuilding process.

As a rideran they are a great tackle combo. But Bryant is on a totally different level then Hardwick and possibly anyone in the league. He is a guy you can put into any scheme and will be dominant. Where I think Hardwick struggles in pass pro. The scheme he plays in Winnipeg really allows him to succeed.

I think that is going to be the norm this year. Next season is going to be vey interesting.

Yeah, it was just fresh in mind after reading Naylor's article. https://www.tsn.ca/dave-naylor-a-fix-for-the-cfl-s-free-agency-problem-1.1574382

 

Don't care how long the extensions are just get us another Cup.

Just curious what are we giving ZC? I imagine it's pretty close... while id say ZC is the superior qb at this point in there careers id also argue that he's still quite injury prone.

Fajardo is no superstar but id take him over Nichols, maybe even over Collaros next year if Fajardo can repeat his success.

All the hate for the riders I get it, but you know. Don't want us to be eating crow at the end of next year.

Side note, nice to see our guys getting locked up but wow am I worried that there will even be a season. Also frustrated because I feel our best chance to repeat would have been 2020

Jeffcoat+Gray+Antigua, this day is fantastic.

Kyle Walters is making the other 8 GMs look like Chumps.
