The owner is the one who signs the cheques... he could go to the GM and say "buy us a better team at whatever cost"... owner, theoretically, has final say in everything Stickem 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jpan85 Posted January 31, 2022 Report Share Posted January 31, 2022 Got a starting oline in place now. On the WR talk. We also do have a quarterback now that elevates level of play from our WR you get competent receivers in here and it will be fine.

Stickem Posted January 31, 2022 Report Share Posted January 31, 2022 Glad Couture has re-upped....Thinking about the crazy money the Leo's offered Lawler, makes me wonder why they didn't try to go after Couture and fix their O Line....I believe Couture is from that area as well...I wonder if they have any competent people running that organization🤑 stevethe3rd, rebusrankin and Bigblue204 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arnold_Palmer Posted January 31, 2022 Report Share Posted January 31, 2022 This is great news about Couture and Woli. Two under the radar guys on a championship winning team that I had a feeling another team would have taken a flyer on in free agency. Especially Woli for whatever reason I thought maybe he was gone. He was certainly under utilized last season. I’m hoping he gets more targets this season but thrilled to have them both coming back.

I bet there is a condo somewhere in Winnipeg that a bombers board member or a friend of wade miller owns that houses many bomber players at a somewhat reduced rate. If anything teams like Sask,Winnipeg are at a bigger advantage with this being in a smaller community. Bigblue204 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesse Posted January 31, 2022 Report Share Posted January 31, 2022 A difference of 20k doesn't seem worth it to even consider moving teams, even if you take away the shitshow factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jpan85 Posted January 31, 2022 Report Share Posted January 31, 2022 That leaves as RB is only spot where they don't have a Canadian starter lined up.

I remember the game last year in BC where he lit them up and was really emotional during the post-game interview where he mentioned in not so many words that he was still pissed at the Lions for what happened when he got injured in 2018 and was happy to stick it to them on the field. So there might still be hope for him staying if he still has some animosity. Edited January 31, 2022 by Bubba Zanetti GCJenks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin Unger Posted January 31, 2022 Report Share Posted January 31, 2022 I wonder if BC plans to sign that Canadian QB from the Stamps as their backup. I believe this (with Rourke) would give them two additional imports that they could sign for cheap and start on their offensive line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin Unger Posted January 31, 2022 Report Share Posted January 31, 2022 I can't see us coming close on Lawler. But can we get within 40k or 50k which i think would make him hesitate given the fact he'd be playing with a weak QB on a weak team that has two other top pass catcher's he'd be sharing touches with. Playoff money plus would be lost and his value going forward would be reduced if he doesn't have the same type of season statistically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebusrankin Posted January 31, 2022 Report Share Posted January 31, 2022 Nice to see Woli and Couture back. OL looks great, DL looks great, Linebackers look great, got our two National WRs. Need some positive WR and secondary news. Bigblue204 and Colin Unger 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
