Mr. Perfect Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 Kirk Penton @PentonKirk12m The re-signings have begun. I'm hearing #Bombers have given new deals to P Mike Renaud and OL Steve Morley. #CFL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M.O.A.B. Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 i'll say keep most of our FAs until we establish who are their replacements... and just cut them after TC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 Morley boo, Renaud he's not that bad. He can bounce back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armchair GM Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 Is there a good reason why we keep bringing Morley back? If you graded out every OL in the CFL, I almost guarantee you Morley would grade out in the bottom 10%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 To expand on my well thought out reply from earlier ... If Morley starts for us next year, I'll be annoyed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noeller Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 If Morley is starting for us then we drafted and used FA poorly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17to85 Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 If Morley is starting for us then we drafted and used FA poorly... yeah pretty much this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR. CFL Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 So then u pay Morley 100k to be the 6th man or be a healthy guy on the 9 Game? A poor use of money if people in fact think he is that bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluto Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 you never know how quickly your youth will develop (or not) you never know how many FA you will be able to get (or not) until after the 15th having a proper contingency plan is always prudent (even if it is one that you really hope you won't have to rely on primarily) Mr Dee, SPuDS and Logan007 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBURGESS Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 If Morley is the best we can do at guard, then we have failed. That being said... last years coaching staff rated Morley higher than any of our 'youngsters' and the O line suffered when he was out. As long as we didn't give him a big signing bonus, he will at least guarantee that we won't be worse at guard than we were last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Duper Negatron Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 This is not the NHL. Right now we don't have anyone better. When/if we do, we can cut them. Why are people freaking out over this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jpan85 Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 Both full time Winnipegers I am sure they did not break the bank on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noeller Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 Renaud soon to marry Winnipeg girl, as well. Tweeted his excitement at being a Winnipegger for life...good for him. I'm a fan of MR9, and hope he can be even better this year if he doesn't have to work as much. That's part of the problem...our ST unit (especially the punt unit) had to work way too hard recently.

Blueandgold Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 This brings me about a zero in terms of excitement. I was hoping this would be the year we finally got rid of Morely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Dee Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 I'm not worried about these signings. They needed to get done. Morley, at least for vet. depth, and Renaud, the vet. punter. I still think Renaud can be better as a punter and maybe under the eye of O'Shea, he can step it up. He has got the leg, but does he have the savvy? We'll see. I'm a little confused about Morley. Looks lost sometimes but is graded well by the coaches. I'd like to see our O-Line get treated with the respect it deserves with a concentration towards improving it exponentially. Bring in the players and let them compete, hopefully under the watchful eye of a very good O-line coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17to85 Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 Morley would be a good option as a backup I suppose, I just don't want the guy as a starter and I think a big problem was the complete lack of development for new offensive linemen so the veteran manages to stick just because he doesn't need as much polishing.

Floyd Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 Easy signings - walters getting the out of the way... I guess. Just really hoping delmonaco is not back, he's been a garbage OL coach since kelly hired him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iso_55 Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 I think it's a given that even with the signings, they'll both have competition at training camp. Especially along the offensive line. Daniel Bryan is a free agent & he may be available although the thought of Old Goat Face doing the punting & kicking doesn't thrill me.

M.O.A.B. Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 i wonder if O'Shea will be interested in bringing in Justin Medlock... I know we will burn a DI spot for him but he is money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jpan85 Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 Lirim Hahrullaha if he is still on our neg list will get a long look I would assume as the next kicker. He is the CIS all time leading scorer. At one point this year had kicked 20 or so consecutive field goals many over 40 yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
