  1. Yeah I mean he's considering just staying here full time. First I love willy and his family if he retires here I'll he thrilled. 2nd willy in 2019 was one of the most dominant defensive forces in league history. I hope willy gets a reasonable salary to stay this year. 2021 willy was a good step back from 18 and 19. He's about to turn 31 and he doesn't look like he's lost a step. Maybe it's the missed season missed pre season or the messed up year. At this point we can't easily replace if we can at all guys like collaros Bailey Lawler biggie ba Darby Castillo or more than 1 starting ol. It feels like Jeffcoat will be hard to retain on the open market. Dl Cbs and hbs we seem to be able to replace easily. If any thing stove is the top priority imo on the dl. So I hope they can reach a good deal maybe heavily incentivesed with a good signing bonus to keep willy. This could be a tough off season. It's hard to keep a championship team together and continue to improve.
  2. I think what he means is they are lining up expecting the impatient Jones to heavily over spend to speed up his process.
  3. That's interesting. Idk why you bring a guy like Buono in ghrn go against his recommendation. Chris Jones is like duron Carter. Talented and effective but at too high a moral cost and both never fulfill their potential imo.
  4. Some poor kid in high-school. Is coach coming back? The hs "dream job". When Chris Jones leaves you don't lose your coach you just lose your turn.
  5. New name same old pile of crap in Edmonton. Feel bad for tg. He deserves his own team. But I love having him back. To be fair tg probably planned on building a high character team and the Edmonton 0fers knew it'd take twice as long to build if they had to cut the trash guys. Jones walks in for an interview immediately rips off his shirt and flexes. Edm execs ...bro Jones...bro Edm execs you're hired bro. Jones I know bro. Let's do this again in 3 years bro. Says all you need to know about the execs in edm
  6. I love the body language of banks when he sees willy headed for him. Banks ease up I'm a distraction willy Willy never eases up and you can take that to the banks
  7. I kind of miss when the awards gave cars. Though I remember one of the edm wins in the 80s the awards players got a 1 year free lease of an Olds cutlass. Which is almost as good as a years supply of belly button lint
  8. They had to give Arbuckle an intensive tc experience to make sure his flex is up to elk standards. I actually like corny as a project qb and back up. He's a guy who should be cheap for a few years while he develops and he can do a couple things well. I wouldn't mind if he was our 4th qb to push McGuire in camp. Yeah maybe he won't Want to take the slow approach. But man the stream line to success hasn't been good to him either. No one wants to be James Franklin. Future star qb to out of football by 30.
  9. I hope collaros doesn't go any place. I think retirement could be a real threat. Back to back gcs MOP gc MOP. That's how you go out on top. And healthy to boot. I have no idea what to expect from the riders other than trying to get guys like gray and Eli etc. Right. For soo long the Hamilton ol was Swiss cheese and treated like it was gold. Freaking joke. When June Jones was in town they ran 6 ol and frequently used ste as a blocking back. Each year they've gotten further away from that. They did it cus they couldn't block for stink. And the ol didn't get any better.
  10. Not to mention Flanders. Dedmon looked good in limited reps on offense so logically he was never used again. Plop in ott Looked like pure hubris. Like he thought these old guys and his system would churn out a bombers 2.0 squad. No good league wide scouting and didn't even use guys he had well. No question he has the potential. Every year he doesn't become the guy makes his chances of fulfilling that potential more remote. If I was him I'd look for a good back up spot. Here Montreal or Hamilton. Go into the year as a back up prepared to see action at some point and have the pieces around you to succeed.
  11. Just about every qb is a fa right now. I think Reilly and blm are the only ones under contract. I expect this to be a crazy off season with lots of qb turn over. Harris back to ott to play with plop would be hilarious. Less funny would be the cats stealing back collaros while we grab Evans. Seriously though I think Masoli should be the riders primary focus. He'd fit well in ott too. I think Harris could go back to tor. Evans is the most interesting though. Highest upside young but man he needs a run game and ol. Evans to tor with half of the free agent ol would be a good fit.
  12. I think younger is our highest priority ast to retain. If He's patient he will be our DC one day. He might be able to get a DC job this year but with Jones claybrooks and possibly Glen Young kicking around idk if he will be a prime target for other teams. It sure would be great if Jones didn't get a hc gig for 2022 in the cfl. That guys toxic af. I bet he will end up in the xfl and of usfl. Really glad coach o is staying with the Cats. That's great for the league. I expect to lose goveia to another team this year. And imo he's the single most deserving guy who isn't a gm right now.
  13. Back then we needed 1 of every thing. Not that this bc team is much better.
  14. That's previous centuries thinking at best. 2 new leagues 40 percent increase in nfl pr money and sizes going up. And you want to try and hold the players feet over the coals. Ambrosie isn't much of a brain trust but thankfully even he has more between his ears than your jack kevorkian suicide solution.
  15. Why the hell would players agree to a 2 year none guaranteed deal. Seriously they just took massive reductions in salary this year. The usfl and xfl are about the start up. If you do that the cfl will be gone in a couple years.
  16. And guaranteed money fixed. It's a pretty terrible situation for them. The cfl has a short off season coming up will need a new cba that hopefully fixes contracts and they think they have time to fully review all of the unique rules for the cfl. Crazy.
  17. He's gonna show up to get his ring and Get 50 percent of 1.
  18. I think you're right. But I don't think he's coming into camp as the no2. I think he will battle for 3rd. I think we see 5 qbs in Tc unless we find an experienced back up.
  19. To be fair if you're gonna have a mancrush you could do a lot worse than strevy. That said no one could ever come between the bromance of him and woli. They were like Bill and Ted. Sheed and lucky must've been real interesting roommates. Those are two crazy high energy positive guys.
  20. If you're bored one day that sounds like a great off season thread. Spergeon Wynn tee Martin Giovanni carmazzi all picked before Brady. Jarious Jackson shortly after. Bishop was picked in 99 the year before. In Bradys rookie year he carried a clip board for bishop. I think he's confusing upset with mildly amused. We just won the gc no one in bomber land is upset. I don't think biased rider media angers any bomber fans. It's more laughable stuff.
  21. Idk how desjarlais is getting no love on those all star lists.
  22. He was a good dude. Really electric athlete but way too raw. Got any other interesting deep cut jerseys? Way back in the Taman era Canadian qb and tcf over achiever Tommy Dennisons dad was on the forum. Iirc he melted down when his kid was cut. To be fair he did look good in limited reps with 5 stringers but ni qbs were brought in to protect more valuable arms.
  23. Part of me wishes half of what he said was true and he was just off to steal cable while working on top secret crap ranting to his hnic family about how he got banned on mbb. I almost regret missing all the crazy stuff in general thread this year. A big part of making this year better as a bomber fan was Ed Tait and bauming. We all know the media coverage on the Bombers is an old boys club. They spend more time chatting than reporting on camp and practice. Taits pieces are always great and bauming added a lot to fill the gap. Plus the around the league bit on 3dn. Bomberfanu571 or what not. Idr his name I think it had a 9 in it. Starting a podcast about the Bombers and seemed to get some traction. I saw a tweet shout out from Tait about it on the ticker. That's pretty cool. Like seeing people fill the gap. When he first started being a new guy i was pretty leery about him. Thought maybe it was polarlusablue et al. Even though I haven't listened to it I respect and appreciate a guy stepping up to fill that void and create content for bomber fans.
  24. Cody Fajardo disagree reacted to this post. Oakman and Alford are worlds better than any rider. I'd take oakman in my sleep. Don't care who is on the roster or where he plays. You take that guy with out question. Oakman and stove would be the best dt tandem in the league in the last 2 decades. I'm a huge Jeffcoat fan but between the two I'd take Oakman at the same money. Bene was great. I'm blue I'm gold I'm really fricken cold lol Plops wife though idk if that was confirmed. But another player wife was on here and had a real meltdown too. A few pr guys as well. Hugh Smith a tiny wr with insane speed and no hands. Too bad I bet willy would be fantastic on here. He's kinda like the modern rod hill.
  25. Bond in at g and hardrick moving to tackle. The first 5 games here for Harris he was averaging just over 10 carries a game. 3 of those games he had 1.6 2.4 and 2.8 yards per carry. 206 yards rushing in 5 game 41 per game. The next 3 games had his first 20 carry game first 2 100 yard games and one more tough day running. The Bond hardrick changes took us from a struggling ol to the start of a great ol. Id compare that to the day willy came and biggie and the return of ba and moving him to s. The mafia has shown a great knack for taking vets to another level.
