Blue Bombers -- 2025/26 Offseason -- Discussion Thread

[Booch]

I'm all for a vet who can play and is still athletically gifted...a couple guys here are not

Actually this morning was working out the steel with the devil with Gavin Walls...that dude could probably still play and looks better than when he retired...we did some dline talk...and he even mentioned he wasnt sure what they were intending with out ends but they definitely were not being turned loose and he would have hated being in that role...and I sure our ends this yr felt the same...hopefully next yr things change

and hence why we let a guy we groomed for 3 yrs...got substantial work here along the way and showed great potential walk for basically nothing...Sure hindsight is 20/20....but also good teams...and great coaches see the future in the now...and make the tough...sometimes hard decisions...Loyalty shouldnt be a currency that keeps you employed, or starting in the same place forever

 

he got less grooming than Brown got here tho....and did significantly less than Brown did...Yet MTL had the foresight to look forward and project their squad so to speak and would be the best option for them...We didnt...there were many signs ZC was in serious decline and we just kept referencing 2019-2021 and some reg season success....but poor playoff performances

see above

If Huff was here..Bouno....even ol Cal....Brown woulda been kept..ZC traded

Well Ol Cal let Danny Mac go under similar conditions...hindsight is always best sight..
