Bomber_fanaddict Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 (edited) I like the Macho signing. He has been getting better and better each year in the league! Lets see if he can get 4 picks in a game this year Edited February 2, 2016 by Bomber_fanaddict Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBURGESS Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 I guess this means we don't re-sign Washington. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ripper Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 I'm surprised the Bombers seem to be signing a lot of ex-rider players, coaches too. Seems weird. However I will really enjoy reading the post here from the people who laughed at us all year last year and said our team was terrible. Some said there wasn't a single player on our roster you would want in Winnipeg. For the record, I always liked Macho. He has some good games. He is a terrible tackler and sometimes gives up some big gains because of it. wpgallday1960 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigblue204 Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 I don't like the Macho signing. Besides his general bad coverage, didn't he take some really horrible penalties as well? DR. CFL and wpgallday1960 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 Macho Harris yuck. Really like the Shayon Green signing, though. Mr. Perfect and Brandon Blue&Gold 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm not too excited about Macho Harris - anyone who played on that defense last year you have at least question. Bigblue204 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweep the leg Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 I don't remember Harris being very good last year. His attempted decapitation of Cotton is the play that sticks out in my mind. Missed a kill shot and gave up an extra 20 or so yards.

Mike Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 I don't get this "we seem to be signing a lot of ex-Rider players and coaches" nonsense. Like who? Dressler and some training camp fodder? Not that it really matters, because EVERY team has players with connections to every other team on it, but the Riders have brought in more ex-Bombers than vice versa since Chris Jones took over. Dan West, Markus Howell, Jordan Reaves, we gave Marte Sears a look too, heck I'll even claim Shawn Lemon on that list.

I know we were terrible that's why the axe came for many of these players. I wasn't defending our team from last year, I'm still in rehab trying to erase the memories. LOL I am surprised Harris would be signed ahead of some others that are available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We might end up looking stupid if he ends up playing lights out, however I wasn't a fan of his missed tackles, and quite honestly, aside from his one multi Interception game, he was invisible.

Fatty Liver Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 (edited) Macho must be a Richie Hall addition, god knows the scouts couldn't find him. Edited February 2, 2016 by Throw Long Bannatyne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan West, Markus Howell, Jordan Reaves, we gave Marte Sears a look too, heck I'll even claim Shawn Lemon on that list. West was just re-signed, he was here last year. Sears and Reaves are starters? who is to say they aren't training camp fodder. Cobourne, Hall, Lapolice, Howard, Wylie, and Miles are all former rider coaches. Lemon was with the riders also before when he was bouncing around. Bastien, Cronk, Dressler, Harris, Hurl,, Neufeld, Newman, Rempel, Stoudemire, and Drew Willy. And that is just on your current roster as of today. It doesn't matter much to me but there is a lot of Green on your roster. Likely we are going to see a lot of red on ours this year and some green and gold too. AtlanticRiderFan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty30 Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 Harris is Kuale II. Gives up coverage and the tackle trying to blow someone one up. Too much risk for reward. DR. CFL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17to85 Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 Signing Harris just seems a real Taman-esque move. Dunno that we really needed another body in the secondary, it's like the only place they seem to be able to recruit guys for. DR. CFL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
