December 13, 20214 yr So, looking ahead....what's our off season going to look like? Coaches and GM all still under contract, right? Players? Who's going to the NFL? Who do we think might bolt in FA? Pieces that we'd like to see the WBB pick up in FA? Edited January 10, 20224 yr by Noeller

Who is Argula If we don’t keep Lawler (which I don’t expect us to), I hope we get Weineke or Acklin.

February 2, 20224 yr Mike Jones under contract? Had his coming out party in the '19 grey cup. Makes the loss of Alford alot less problematic. Guy can ball.

Hopeful we can keep retaining a few more of our guys this week & early next week (8 - 9 guys). Think we may lose one of our receivers (hope not), one of our running backs next week, along with Stove and probably a DB. As it is today, we lost 2 starters and a rotation D-linemen so far. As far as receivers, Jake Weineke would be first choice as non Bomber free agent receiver, along with Greg Ellingson & Josh Huff I believe fit, if its Kenny Lawler we are replacing. Replacing Adams or Bailey, need more time to think on them, as we have recent signings, McKnight and a couple/three vets that were in camp last year or were signed/retired... Another would be Walker from Edmonton, but I wonder about him, as I was "all in" on him a couple years ago and he turned his back on us and signed in Tor (compensation would have to reflect last years Edmonton performance)..... Definitely, hard no's on Williams & Speedy!!!!
February 2, 20224 yr Weineke and RJ Harris would be my replacement pick for Lawler. I am hoping Bryant Mitchell wants to play football again.

Wonder if he kicks him self for not playing now. Usually the wr market is Shallow. But this year it's fairly deep.
February 2, 20224 yr Before Rose came back and bumped Mike out,our defense was playing at the historic level with Jones in at DB. Losing Mike now would be a sizeable loss in our secondary.

February 2, 20224 yr 15 minutes ago, Nolby said: Bailey will be our 1000 yard man this year,he's a gamer and we needed him. I want more than one 1000yrd wr this year!

I was thinking about this and how Montreal had 4 1000 yard receivers in one year,having 2 nowadays would be phenomenal and we'd have potential to have 3 if Lawler comes back and Demski we know has the ability to get there.
February 2, 20224 yr Great signing for a guy some wanted cut after a few drops to start the year last season. Glad that the coaching staff’s patience was rewarded.
February 2, 20224 yr 30 minutes ago, Mike said: Bailey signed, as per Dunk HUGE Massive...he really coming into his own...and his attitude and fire is infectious....I see All-Star in that guy this yr! 12 minutes ago, TrueBlue4ever said: Great signing for a guy some wanted cut after a few drops to start the year last season. Glad that the coaching staff’s patience was rewarded. its a testament to where we at as an organization where we can develop guys, let them grow and come along...as we have pieces all around them to allow for it
So, looking ahead....what's our off season going to look like? Coaches and GM all still under contract, right? Players? Who's going to the NFL? Who do we think might bolt in FA? Pieces that we'd like to see the WBB pick up in FA?
