Quarterback - Max Hall: Improved gradually during the second half of the season. Deserves to come back and at least compete for a job.
Imports
Clarence Denmark – Wide Receiver: Denmark caught 64 passes for 900 yards, great numbers considering how challenged the team’s offence was in 2013. He brings speed and game-breaking ability.
Bryant Turner – Defensive Tackle: The 26 year old, three-year veteran at defensive tackle has earned All-Star recognition and is the kind of hard-working, determined player that Mike O'Shea covets.
Ian Wild – Linebacker: Wild made a big impression with his speed and awareness in what was his rookie. He’s also a long-snapper. This guy is a keeper.
Johnny Sears – Defensive Back: Still only 26, Sears is a fierce hitter who plays with passion. He’s also an intimidating force in the secondary whose only challenge is staying healthy.
Demond Washington – Defensive Back: Washington is a dynamic, if at times, erratic defensive back. Just 26 years old. His game needs polishing, but his speed and kick return abilities make him valuable.
Jarvis Jones – Offensive Lineman: The 6-foot-7, 305 pound offensive tackle played quite well after joining the team late in the season. The 24-year old from Oklahoma looks like a key component in 2014 offensive line.
Glenn January – Offensive Lineman: There’s no substitute for experience, and this 30-year old has plenty of it. He’s a solid offensive tackle who has spent the last five years in Winnipeg after playing for Toronto and Saskatchewan.
Desia Dunn – DB/LB: Dunn had a solid rookie season. The 25-year old Fresno State product has speed, savvy and lots of character.
Wallace Miles – Wide Receiver: Miles spent nearly the entire 2013 season on the practice roster, then showed tremendous speed and athleticism in a 100-yard receiving game against Toronto late in the year. Only 23 years old.
J.D. Griggs – Defensive End: Another late-season addition at defensive end. Pass-rushers are gold in the CFL and this 23-year old flashed some skills in that area.
Non-imports
Henoc Muamba – Linebacker: Most teams won't protect players like Muamba, who are eligible for free agency in February. But Muamba is coming off an award-winning, All-Canadian season. At 24, the Bombers can't afford to lose his rights to Ottawa.
Cory Watson – Slotback: He was plagued by injuries the past two years, but when healthy, he is still a stud receiver, not to mention a great blocker. He appears to be an easy choice as one of the six protected Canucks.
Chris Greaves - Offensive Lineman: Greaves is putting the finishes touches on his conversion from the defensive line, a position he played in college. He should be a fixture on the offensive line for years to come.
Patrick Neufeld - Offensive Lineman: Acquired from Saskatchewan in the Alex Hall trade, the Bombers consider him to be a big part of their future. He’s expected to compete for a starting spot at offensive tackle in 2014.
Tyson Pencer – Offensive Lineman: A 1st-round draft pick in 2012, Pencer missed all of his first year due to injury, and played sparingly in 2013. He still has substantial upside to become another regular on the offensive line.
Paul Swiston – Offensive Lineman: The gigantic offensive lineman has been slow in his development, but he's only 24 and it's too early to give up on him.
