Theyve gotta have like $700K-$800K tied up in QB salary. The exact opposite of BC.

Nolby Posted February 9, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2022 If we've got money left over I'd be chucking a chunk at Castillo, get all the corner stones back in so all we have to do it out up a couple of walls. wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanna-B-Fanboy Posted February 9, 2022 Report Share Posted February 9, 2022 Huh, at least we won't see Andrew Harris play @ IGF in DOuble Blue this year. So, good chance we may never see him @ IGF in double blue, I think this is going to be his last year. HardCoreBlue and Tracker 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walters needs to get Eli back on track or find another Natl. OG to replace him asap. Cody Speller is a F.A. but his status is in limbo. Liam Dobson may be an option but I was thinking that if he's bound for the NFL Winnipeg would use their first round pick to draft a lineman.

All that is good but as of now they are one injury away from starting Kolankowski and from what I saw last year he looked pretty wobbly. I guess they could stash a few Import O-linemen on the PR and adjust the ratio to get them into the lineup....Travis Bond is probably available.

17to85 Posted February 9, 2022 Report Share Posted February 9, 2022 Gotta think walters is saving some money in the event guys like Desjarlais come back from the NFL. He has never liked spending right to the cap from the get go. Always leave some wiggle room. Bigblue204, Geebrr, Jesse and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildPath Posted February 9, 2022 Report Share Posted February 9, 2022 (edited) 1 hour ago, Nolby said: I wonder if McGuire realised his situation in the league and becoming a starter just wasn't going to happen anytime soon thus why he's looking at other options If McGuire came back this year he was one hit to an oft-injured quarterback with a history of injuries away from being a starter. Most QBs go down at some point during a year, we have been lucky that Zach hasn't. If he fared well enough with another opportunity he definitely could have had offers to start next year.

Not that we haven't already seen him find guys but this will be a good test for Danny and Ted this offseason. I'm not expecting a year again like last year but we've gotta keep that cup at home.

Needing to use the draft to produce starting offensive lineman. And in other times needed the draft to produce a backup offensive lineman. I think they did alright when they selected Dejarlais and Chung. With the amount of skilled talent available high up in the draft i think that there will be a quality offensive lineman available when our pick comes up. Don't get me wrong. I hope Eli is signed. But given that nobody around the league seems to have offered on him Im willing to bet he's still not planning to vaccinate. I'd love to get political here but im not going to.

Not worried about the OL at all. We took an unexpected about of hits losing Desjarlias and Eli (presumably), but Grey + draft picks will weather the storm. I'm only worried once we have to replace big Stan, but at that point, we're probably replacing all of our 30+ guys and starting from scratch. Our offence doesn't run this team, and while Lawler had a good season, if you compare it against top seasons of CFL past.....it doesn't really measure up...I think we can more than absorb the loss. We do need some secondary help. I don't think we're going to be able to depend on Maston and Taylor for 18+3. I trust that Alexander will be back, so pick a Hallet and go from there. Needs me some Strev tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the benefit to this is that so long as Alexander is not ready we could start an additional Canadian on the offensive line. Imagine we draft one and Dobsen comes to camp we will have an embarrassment of riches again. And if Desjarlais becomes available it ends up being a problem. Im hoping we get clarity on Dobsen early so we can draft accordingly. Would love to see a Philpot in a bombers jersey again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not too sure Dobson is bound for the NFL. Certainly isn’t highly ranked in any lists of OL I’ve seen. May get a tryout or an outside shot at UDFA.

Noeller Posted February 9, 2022 Report Share Posted February 9, 2022 Regardless of what happens with Dobsen, Desjarlais or Eli.... We're gonna take an OL with our 1st.

I would be shocked if he is not in an NFL camp. I have said it a few times, but a guy that big, plays that mean, and can dunk a basketball is going to get a look.

GCn20 Posted February 9, 2022 Report Share Posted February 9, 2022 We still have a full draft class to come in that likely nets us an OL and DL I would think. I've heard it's not a very deep draft but the top 20 are pretty darn good. Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
