JCon Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 I've heard criticism about the amount of players that the Bombers have signed but no one saying that we've been overspending on those targets. I think we got some good deals in there. And frankly, I don't care if we are at the cap. It's where we should be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, I wasn't overly enamored with Bryant last season. You? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Dee Posted February 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 Looking forward to seeing and believing in Andrew Harris. Harris says, in this interview, that he had no problem with Buono (think Tedford) and the relationship is good. http://www.bluebombers.com/2016/02/12/press-conference-andrew-harris/ Walters was saying that Kelly Bates (former Lion's RB coach) was extremely impressed with Harris's football knowledge and his grasp of what the receivers should be doing, what the o-line is should be doing and the understanding of the different Offensive packages. This whole thing with him in there is going to be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Says the guy who signed Harris to back up Henry. So basically not play for a year but get paid 400K the next year. God I hope Henry ***** them over and continues playing for 2 more seasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacquie Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 I don't see why people are up in arms over what Desjardin said. He's right. If any other GM had said it you all likely would have agreed. DR. CFL and TBURGESS 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only questionable move was done by Ottawa by signing another QB with a big contract while losing 2 important d-linemen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some say the Riders have. Since teams have access to all contracts filed with the League, I think Desjardin would have a better idea than any of us if some teams have overspent. As for Harris in Ottawa, his big bucks don't start until year 2 of his contract. Edited February 13, 2016 by Jacquie Logan007 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are teams who are close to or over the SMS now and they will deal with it later by releasing players. That's pretty much the way things work at this time of year.
