rebusrankin Posted October 2, 2022 Report Share Posted October 2, 2022 I stole this from @DTonOB but which current Bombers do you think are locks for the Ring of Honour? I have 3. Stanley Bryant, MOS and Collaros. Hardrick, Jefferson, Bighill and Demski in the getting dang close group. Tracker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Posted October 2, 2022 Report Share Posted October 2, 2022 I don't know if I can put Jefferson there. Bighill probably same - just spent too much of his career in BC. Bryant and MOS are already locks. I'd like to see Collaros play for a couple more seasons - I know the Grey Cups are amazing, but this is going to be his second season with us (and first 18 game season). There has to be some longevity to a RoH spot. rebusrankin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booch Posted October 2, 2022 Report Share Posted October 2, 2022 Willy tho if he signs back next yr...which is basically a slam dunk will have spent more time here than anywhere else....right now he has 3 yrs which is the same as he had in Sask Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jpan85 Posted October 2, 2022 Report Share Posted October 2, 2022 Mike Miller should be but won’t he is literally the best to what he does in the history of the league. Bigblue204, JCon, wbbfan and 2 others 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arnold_Palmer Posted October 2, 2022 Report Share Posted October 2, 2022 O’Shea and Walters should be locks, Stanley next, and then tough to keep Collaros out if he wins another MOP award, and a third Grey Cup. That’s pretty elite numbers. I think Jefferson, Biggie, and Hardrick you can easily make cases for as well but I would put those 4 in first.

DTonOB Posted October 2, 2022 Report Share Posted October 2, 2022 I had a bunch that I think eventually get in...especially if they get a 3rd straight Grey Cup. Doug, Ed and I agreed that Collaros, Bryant and O'Shea are locks. There's going to be multiple major awards for each guy, and a great chance to add to two Grey Cups. Jefferson, Bighill are right behind. Alexander, Demski with a couple more years at this level will be in. And Jermarcus Hardrick--for me the best RT in the league the last four years--will get there too. So, my guess is 8. That's nuts considering they just inducted their 12th player. But this could be a historically great era in the CFL. Mr. Perfect, Jesse, Bigblue204 and 1 other 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say that Walters should and would be inducted around, or with Osh...tho they could be at their positions here for 10 more yrs yet....so not sure we induct current employees of the club Player wise from the 2018 and on era I see Bryant...Harris...Demski...Biggie...Zac, Willie and Yosh as locks, especially if these guys bring home another cup this yr...anything they do after that here is just gravy.

Noeller Posted October 2, 2022 Report Share Posted October 2, 2022 One thing DT and crew talked about, too, was Osh getting a statue, and that's gotta be a virtual lock at this point.

wbbfan Posted October 3, 2022 Report Share Posted October 3, 2022 A lot of the same names have been said. And great picks too. I love what Wj does and brings I think he has a few much better defensive players a head of him in the list. demski is a sleeper imo. A few more years with his continually increasing productivity could lead to him getting in. sleeper pick part two is ba. Again if he has a lengthy career I think he’d be ripe to join. rebusrankin and Noeller 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Along with Bryant, was part of the journey from worst to 1st. Would love to see him up there! Not the godly stats but his contribution can't be ignored.

Jesse Posted October 3, 2022 Report Share Posted October 3, 2022 Demski is one of those guys who's not there yet, but still has time to do special things. Ring of Honour discussions are hard, because it is the highest honour. Not making it isn't an insult, you need to be the top of the top and have had team success. We can't put every talented role player up there. And I also don't love the idea of guys who have only played for the Bombers for 2ish seasons - especially if they've had long careers for other teams. Bryant is the only player who could retire tomorrow and has already done enough, imo. TBURGESS and Jethro 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy how long he’s been good for. I think mo would’ve been close with another couple seasons too. Hurts that he and randle island missed out on the great success.
