The better team prevailed on those days but it still pisses me off that we weren't able to close out those other two Cups.

Especially 22 in hindsight. 23 we were outcoached all game and outplayed in crunch time by a team on a roll. 22 was a game that Bombers gave away and had no business losing.

More painfully- how close the games were... a few inches here... a few inches there- and we would be backtobacktobacktoback Grey Cup Champs. Oh well- let's keep up with the GC appearances and we are bound to win another. HardCoreBlue and blue85gold 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluedawg Posted February 14 Report Share Posted February 14 I think after two years with Malik Clements and Brian Cole both on the team as backup LBs, they chose to re-sign Cole and try to find new young LBs to fight for an active roster spot. Must have thought Clements was not good enough in some way to be the heir apparent to Bighill. Fast but was in the wrong place a lot from what I saw. The Michael Ayers kid is the only one I think we've signed so far but I expect to see very healthy competition in camp there rebusrankin, blue85gold and JCon 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clements is bigger for sure, but his tangibles are pretty common for an imp. Probably confided in their ability to find higher potential guys. blue85gold 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you hear Walters' comments today, it really is that our remaining roster needs to be filled with guys on minimum contracts. So we're losing depth pieces that we probably would have liked to keep. It's not the end of the world, but the scouts are going to be earning their keep this season. For starters and depth.

Only exceptional rookies step into the lineup in their first year, should be okay with a rookie receiver and the secondary but if injuries come into play, could be rough. Biggest worry right now is Grant and Castillo, ST will suck and blow badly if those two are not re-signed. Piggy 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he starts at wil out of camp he’s going to be the talk of the league. He plays on more of an edge than most of our front guys for the past while, is soo explosive and has a great instinct.

I disagree on Cole having great instincts but I will say it was obvious that he improved on that from beginning to end of the season. The guy was originally recruited to Michigan as a highly-touted WR, then was a safety and kick returner at Mississippi State. Clearly a great athlete who has potential. Will be 27 when training camp starts and in his 3rd year with club so should be approaching his peak! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have Fox and Haba returning on the DL, Ford and McGhee in the secondary. We do need to find a RT, but the rest is depth pieces.
