Floyd Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Don't see what Hamilton has over us.... really disappointed that Butler didn't end up here. Surprised that Myddleton didn't... or anyone. Still keeping faith in Walters... for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Blue Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Our line was awful last year. I don't think I should be terribly concerned to leave one of the weaker parts of it leave. I would think they have a plan, since it doesn't seem like they wanted to keep him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueandgold Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 One more thing i haven't heard mentioned by anyone yet...we don't currently have a kicker on our roster do we? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floyd Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Hirallaju or whatever.. that guy is really good. Palardy is still out there... not worried. We converted Sorenson to a Centre in half a season, move Morley or Greaves in there - no one will notice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robynjt Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 I like the Moore signing, only because I think he was one of the reasons BC was comfortable getting rid of Geroy. Anyone else think it would be hilaaarious if Lulay got hurt early in the season? And they were stuck with the Pierce/Elliott show?

Tracker Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Sorenson was a journeyman O-lineman, and not that hard to replace, but damn, we need a stud NI O-lineman. The free agent picking look awful slim right now so I hope that Pencer and/or Neufeld will step up, Walters pulls a rabbit out of a hat or we can score a starter in the draft. Don't like our odds, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wally has an unreal ability to produce Quarterbacks, if Lulay gets hurt I'm sure Ricky Ray 2.0 will be right there to step in. robynjt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because DeMarco, pierce, champion, Jackson are all Ricky Ray level of talent. The fact that they took Bomber scraps for their depth doesn't really show me that Buono has it anymore.

Jacquie Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 RBs drafted Marwan Hage. If he's healthy, can't see them taking a centre with their first pick. If he's going to report. After the expansion draft he said he wasn't sure if he would go or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noeller Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 I will say this...based on everything I've read today, I'm very confident the Bombers did everything they could to get the guys they really wanted. Sometimes, you just can't get a guy, even if you offer 'em the moon. They had money, they had opportunity...I have no reason to believe that they didn't do everything in their power today. It is what it is... Blue-urns and Armchair GM 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iso_55 Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Sorenson was no screaming hell for us but now I'm not seeing a centre that's better than him... have to see what the plan is. That was my thoughts as well. Who is better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iso_55 Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Bourke wanted to remain in Montreal. Do you think we'd have ante'd up $220,000 to sign him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbill2004 Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 I'm assuming we'll be seeing Kowalczuk and Morley at centre to start the season. If we draft Lavertu he starts mid season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC they said he signed just before FA started - not enough time for other teams to know he had signed. And even if he was FA for a few minutes, that likely wouldn't have been enough time for his agent to let him know what the other offers were.

Jacquie Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 I'm sure it doesn't need to be pointed out, but what are the odds Korey Banks DIDN'T have anything to do with bringing Moore here? Going by his tweet after the announcement, he seemed surprised by the signing. We now know that Moore and Willy are good friends so he may have played more of a factor than Banks.

Noeller Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 If Bourke was truly available, I think every team would have paid pretty much everything they were able, in order to get him in their colours. He's that good. Also, he was not leaving Montreal for anything. Blue-urns 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would likely be someone new with zero cfl experience. Tough even for wally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
