Oh that would be sweet music to the ears. They'd never admit it. going to go out on a limb and say Getzlaff is this year's Rider to be pulled off the holy altar. Now that his salary's out. Him or Shea Emery - he's new and an easier target if he ends up mediocre like he was last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Bundy Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 I see, it does make more sense now I suppose. Holding a grudge because Henry isn't on the Bomber's will never make sense to me though It is not a grudge about that at all. He is just a bad GM who does stupid things.Has ridden Popp's name to two GM spots now, somehow. I don't think you would find one person who would take Burris over Willy. He did us a favour. Sooooo Al Bundy a redblacks fan? Only reason why I can see anyone defending dejarcrazy. The guy tries (and fails) to fix all of his problems by throwing gobs of money around... This has been proven at every place he has been a GM.. this and failure.. A) keep guessing so you actually wish Henry was a Bomber? I thought Desjardins did the Bombers a huge favor by taking him.

Oh god no.. He's a washed up bra wearing ******. I just seriously dislike a GM who's only go to move is to throw money at everything in hopes that buying a player will fix the woes. Drafting, scouting and supplementing roster with FAs when need be is my ideal GM. Dejardin (who might as well b called déjà vu at this point) is the opposite of that..

kelownabomberfan Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 Him or Shea Emery - he's new and an easier target if he ends up mediocre like he was last year. Shea Emry is a slightly more talented Ejiro Kuale, with the right passport. He'll make a half decent play once in awhile, but totally blow it by then taking a 15 yard roughing penalty.

DR. CFL Posted March 14, 2015 Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 Not sure how you can not designate the MLB spot as a critical spot. Historically that should be one of your smartest, most athletic players that is a demonstrated leader by his play and knowledge of the game.

voodoochylde Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 @DarrinBauming: Appears the #Bombers have added 6'4" 215lb receiver Derrick Hector (@Heck_Dawg), nephew of former NFL WR Lawyer Tillman. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qvs-PxzjHHk http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=3l0FerGuz-0 http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UBAxIfNNMnc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbill2004 Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 Here's a scouting report on Hector: "He measured in at only 6-3 this post-season which was a bit disappointing considering he was listed on the schools roster at 6-6. Runs in the 4.6 range and has a little short area quickness for his size. However, isn't overly sudden and is a strider who lacks the second gear needed to track the football. Uses his size well to shield and will use his length to go get the football. Impression: A nice size free agent, but is going to have a tough time separating in the NFL."

gbill2004 Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 And another Hector scouting report: Morehouse WR Derrick Hector is a tall athletic receiver at 6-4 215 lbs that has good size and uses his frame well to shield away opponents. He gets vertical on defenders and fights to make the reception. He also displays good eye/hand coordination and shows strong hands when making tough catches over the middle. Hector looks smooth coming out of his breaks but tends to get a little high sometimes when setting up his routes. He clutches the ball into his body on some intermediate routes and needs to work on consistently catching the ball more with his hands. He also needs to work on coming back to the quarterback on certain pass plays. Hector was one of the biggest receivers during the HBCU Bowl week and impressed NFL scouts in practices with how fluid he looked releasing off the line with quick top speed and also his burst when selling the deep route. Hector uses his size and strength to his advantage and gives good effort blocking downfield. He also showed his ability as a red zone threat consistently winning the jump ball battle against just about every defensive back he faced. Hector put up productive numbers considering the offense he played in and was also a two time all conference performer. A good pro day will increase his chances on receiving an opportunity in training camp. Hector has the size, speed and receiver skills to play at the next level and could be a good candidate as a fifth receiver. He will have to pull together a complete game in training camp and quickly adjust to better competition to give himself the best opportunity to make an active NFL roster or practice squad.

gbill2004 Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 @DarrinBauming: Hector tells me he's actually up to 225lbs. At 6'4", this fits what I am told about the #Bombers looking to get bigger at receiver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When your problem was injury, not talent (like it is with both Swiston and Pencer) then you're going to get multiple looks at a high demand, low supply position. I think Swiston has a chance. Pencer is a write off as far as I'm concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweep the leg Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 Pencer was terrible in the preseason action he got last year. I'd be shocked to see him ever play regularly in the CFL. Swiston might if he can stay healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pencer is a write off as far as I'm concerned. I kind of got the impression that with Pencer it wasn't just the injuries, seems like he might have had a severe lack of give a damn as well. Swiston I'd agree that the injuries were the biggest culprit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
