Super Duper Negatron Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 They were close with Burris too. I am hopeful, but cautious on this one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBURGESS Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 gary lawless @garylawless 3m3 minutes ago now @Wpg_BlueBombers not the only team after Dressler. Can they close? Next little bit will be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jpan85 Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 Hopefully it's soon would like to roll into Regina next weekend in a Bomber Dressler jersey. Taynted_Fayth and HardCoreBlue 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taynted_Fayth Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 didnt he tweet, calgary and winnipeg were talking to dressler, this isnt new news, maybe a cover your own *** after saying the bombers were close prematurely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty30 Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 With Rogers going to the 49ers I wouldn't be surprised to see the Stamps sign him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noeller Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 gary lawless ✔ @garylawless Dressler has a firm offer from @Wpg_BlueBombers but sounds like agent is dealing with other interest as well. Decision today unlikely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pigseye Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 Bombers need to land him, fans are tired of 'close but no cigar'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think landing Dressler gets you what the fans want. Unless this guy's taking a pay cut, he's way too expensive for his age. wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty30 Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 Not to be negative, but I can't help but think Calgary gives him an offer he can't refuse. Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my thought too...now that Rodgers is gone to the NFL, they're gonna likely toss some big money at Dressler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueBlue Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 I would be mighty surprised if Calgary puts a better offer forward. I'm near positive this is a done deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iso_55 Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 Looks like the Stamps are letting Messam walk after free agency. He wants to stay but no firm offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stickem Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 (edited) Edge the stumps out Walters and give the Peg and Bomber fans a badly needed lift, we haven't seen in these parts for awhile...I think we're close ,and when it comes down to the nitty gritty, we'll come out on top...I'm pretty sure our offer is a good one and Walters won't this slip away...

Atomic Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 (edited) Everyone knew Rogers was going to the NFL already, signing somewhere was just a matter of time. And when is the last time the Stamps have signed a big free agent? Dressler to Winnipeg isn't a given but I'd be shocked if he landed in Calgary.

DR. CFL Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 Bombers are still up against the stigma of being cellar dwellers that are being a coach in the final year of his contract. Do players want money ? Sure but they want stability in an organization and a team that they deem are legitimate playoff contenders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Dee Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 I heard on 1290, the only tabled offer is from the Bombers. Stamps have not given a firm offer. IMO...overnight. Then if Calgary doesn't interfere - he's ours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you suggesting Dressler wouldn't come here because of O'Shea's contract status? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR. CFL Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 I am suggesting that Dressler may have concerns about the stability and direction of the franchise. This is a business and players do make business decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
