JuranBoldenRules Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 I'd stick with Adams and hope some recruits turn out over Stafford. What we need is a solid guy on the boundary. Stafford isn't that guy, he's like a Nick Moore with worse hands. Wouldn't waste cap space on him. bearpants, BigBlueFanatic and MinisterOfD5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Yeah I agree, I'm not a huge fan of Fuller or Stafford... I think if we go after another receiver it should be Chambers... he would be a huge upgrade over JFG at slot. A big physical Canuck I'd what we need now IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iso_55 Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 (edited) The guy who really had injury issues in Calgary was Mo Price. Then he was traded to Ottawa & became their 5th receiver. Interesting to see if Hufnagel lets Fuller go to FA in less than 2 weeks. Edited January 27, 2016 by iso_55 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iso_55 Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 I think if Moore is willing to take a pay cut then sign him. But again this comes down to scouting, where are the receivers on the PR ready to step up & play well if a starter goes down? Calgary always had 1 or 2 receivers on the PR like Rogers who when their time came were ready to break out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dascow Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Now that the Bombers have signed Dressler, I think they need to focus on acquiring D-line talent. I would personally rather sign 1 big name receiver and 2 big name D-linemen rather than 2 big name receivers and 1 big name D-lineman. Signing free agent receivers might be flashy, but I don't think it's the best way of building a team. The best way to build a team is from the trenches out. I would like to add 1 dominant DT and 1 dominant DE. An average secondary can look real good with a dominant d-line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With walters saying yesterday in his presser, The Moore ship sailed long before Dressler became available, im thinking it's a safe bet Moore will not be back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR. CFL Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Solidifying the O line is a huge priority. If you can't keep Willy upright and healthy he doesn't matter a hill of beans who the receivers are. Fatty Liver 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A quick release out to a slot back or WR who you can trust and good scheme calling can vastly improve a poor oline. I'm not saying we have an all star cast of Oliners and we will win much with who we currently have but if they can improve over last year and we can get another decent oline guy in there (preferably Canadian) then I think Lapos play calling and the addition of Dressler should make for a much improved team.

Dascow Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 By the time February 9th hits, what will realistically be left, in terms of starting o-linemen? My guess is nothing. There should be some interesting d-linemen available though. At this point I would take a pass rush specialist over a receiver. (If that's the choice that has to be made.)

Or we can give up some assets to try to make a trade like the Ticats did for Ryan Bomben. But that would require some pretty big assets, such as our first two picks AND more.

He might have to flip Washing a few hundred bucks if he wants his #7. Or he can wait until they release/trade Moore and take his #17. Or go with 16. Other numbers currently available are 11, 12, 13 and 18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigg jay Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Washington might be gone soon too so he might as well take a generic number now and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checked the Bomber website, and Dressler doesn't have a designated number set yet. Having a feeling they won't until the roster is set in stone.
