It was mentioned at the fan forum that the Bombers were going to announce the signing of a "name" LB in the next 24-48 hours. Who will it be? McCune?

Penton said it's not him.

I think Kuale is the best option.

My guess is Kuale or Isaac.

Something tells me this may not be a "name" CFLer. If it's Kuale, that's also super underwhelming.

Normally I wouldn't be too excited about Kuale, but I think he could be a real interesting player in a kooky scheme.

Well if a good mechanic needs tools, then they might just be getting the right guy.

 

Seriously, I'm for anybody who can fit in whatever system our OC or DC wants to employ.

 

Good results are what the fans want, Im not too particular at this point, how we get them.

the big question is... if Etch will like him ?

Maybe its henoc just kidding, probably not a CFL lb, if it is, regardless of what penton said, i'm gonna go with mccune.

If Etch didn't like McRath because of his speed, He certainly wont like McCune. While talented, McCune doesn't necessarily have a blazing 40

Pretty sure it's Kuale.

Kuale also plays DE, FB and TE. O'Shea and Etch will love him. His versatility all but guarantees it's him.

I think it's going to be Simoni Lawrence. It makes sense ...

I saw the Vikings just released him this morning. He'd be great.

Maybe I'm just reading too much into it, but that could be a reason they couldn't give out a name yet last night and Lawrence would be a near perfect fit for what Etcheverry wants to do, even more so than Kuale.

He's one (Simoni) of the FA i want the Bombers to target but he went to NFL.
It's not too late to pick him up now.

Simoni is 25 years old so could be a long term solution.

Was disappointed when we couldn't sign this guy, he is an impact LB 

 

Lawrence would be a great fit, but there is still a growing list of concerns about Etcheverry.

Hopefully he will give up the NFL and go back to CFL.

Lawrence would be a great fit, but there is still a HISTORY of concerns about Etcheverry.

Fixed it for ya ...

Simoni Lawrence made Hamilton's defence so much better last season. Their turnaround started the day they gave him a shot.

I thought it would be Kuale, but Lawrence would be a great add.

Good point. All we can do at this point is hope that Etcheverry has learnt from his history and will be smart enough to adapt his game plans on the fly during games. That was a hallmark of the team in recent years, both offensively and defensively- the other teams seemed to be able to adapt to whatever we were having success with and we couldn't return the favour.
