Pretty sure brazzell was after those two. Mcgarity was supposed to be an answer to a bunch of questions. And he just ended up being soo bad. I felt soo bad for k9. Such a great guy, had success after and before here just snake bitten while here. He also ended up with some pretty bad QBing at times but still.

Sign me up. Lets kick the cflpa head too.

Agree x2. I wonder if he will go into coaching now? Wish he would have retired after that GC, but atleast he is reasonably healthy. I will always remember him seemingly completing 80% of his passes against us every single game.

Vince McMahon considers move to bring back the XFL
wbbfan replied to wbbfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Ahh that does make sense. Ive heard that in game gambling software thing they had has mega potential. I imagine this is going to have everything he can muster behind it. Im, sure he doesn't want his public legacy to be failing at football twice, and his wifes failed political run. (few people under 30 know or care how big wrestling got under his brand) -
Incredible size too. Solid production in college as well. Itll be interesting to see how big he is coming into camp, he was pretty light at the combine.

Vince McMahon considers move to bring back the XFL
wbbfan replied to wbbfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
again. That's an incredible amount of money to front, considering how much that team owner dumped into the AAF and didn't buy half a season I'm not optimistic. I think a secondary league in the US doing well is good for football. Another talent catch before guys disappear, a place for old guys to go who arent done with football yet, giving chances to young bucks to play more. I just dont think the XFL will be it. -
I bet jon ryan had more reps at WR in college then jade.

Vince McMahon considers move to bring back the XFL

Arent they up and running again? I think they had a nice little niche, they just went crazy with expansion and pushing it. Is the XFL dead again yet? -
Drafting a football player high, who is built like a ballerina is a bad idea.
-
very low miles though. Harris is 32, powell is 31, gable is 31, wilder is 28, sutton is 32, jeremiah johnson is 32 etc. Id take a shot on a guy like green over gable, sutton, johnson etc, even wilder is a lot of head ache and money for a similar skill set. Cheap, fresh legs, established that he can play in the league, not a threat to jump to the nfl etc.

Addison was tall, strong (something like 6'4 225?) and fast. (4.6 to the 4.5 of nic demski) He put up good numbers in college too iirc. I feel like that was the more reasonable of the bust picks.
-
He was in at guard in 16 a bit and didn't look good. He is more of a tackle, which is odd but does happen some times. It is hard to not only play up to the level of a Hardrick but also to slot in on short notice without much possibility of keeping that job. Hardrick also struggled at guard actually. Bond coming in at guard and Hardrick going to tackle was huge for our OL. Some guys have used height to great advantage. But in general ive always felt that being a lot taller makes it far harder to maintain good leverage, and easier for the other guy to get it. Especially on the inside of the line.
-
Such a fantastic story, person and football player. Hes such a corner stone of the team. I hope his career ends with the HOF and a couple of blue, grey cup rings.
-
I could see him rotating around both 3 tech and end. Hes stuck in the middle like corney was at one point. His game does certainly work well with the interior vs the edge. I think it depends a bit who takes the other DT spot. With nevis on the nose jake and kongbo could rotate as a 3 technique. Where as brandin bryant fills kinda that same role. I expect the ratio to end up 2 NI wrs, 3 NI ol, 1 ni rb, 1 ni S which is 7. We can use jake and jones in packages to get an extra Imp on the DL or in coverage. We could also end up starting 2 NI OL though. I think it depends on how the OL and WR shake down. Either way the DL is going to be exceptional and deep.
-
I like the way green runs the ball. Hope he finds another team hes a gooder.
-
Idk about that, he missed out narrowly on bringing back Brian clark, geroy simion, arland bruce and more. What he did do though was capitalize on the folding of the renegades. His role in US scouting during the early 2ks along with Ritchies old vet pickups kept football in Winnipeg.
-
Haven't seen anything of the sort from him in his stints. But he has been around soo long as a back up if hes ever gonna be ready itll be this year and they mustve kept an Imp ol around that long for a reason.
-
Go back to the taman era its even worse. If you take out the last couple of walters drafts and go back say 20 years, we have got to have the worst drafting record in the league or close to it.
-
WR is gonna be hard. Geroy simon was here for 1 and a half years worth of games. Does he go on the list where his talent and league production demands or do guys who werent as good but here much longer get the nod?Similar to geroy simon, alfred jackson is worthy of recognition as well. For me, Milt, Murphy, Joe Poplawski, TE, and Ernie Pitts is pretty good. Rick house is close though, Wilcox worthy of a mention too.
-
Idk swiston was a 4th round pick, that's just overhyping.
-
He did rostered parts of 14 games and made 5 tackles. Faith, addison richards, tyson pencer, jade ettiene, andy mulumba (2nd over all never played a down up here)
-
Dont think he is. Think he went IR to PR, to UFA.
-
I think if they are cut and not in the next years camp with someone then you know you picked a dud. Someone, midseason will bring in a high pick bust just because you aren't going to find any other Nis any where else. IIRC the moes gave Tyson pencer a midseason look, and the riders took jade in a trade. And those guys, + faith were the poorest picks weve made in a long time.
-
I dont agree, he had some good burn time at wil in his limited reps. I think he was on the verge, but probably would have topped out as a good starting NI lber. Hed still be like 28 or 29 now. So he'd just be getting into his prime. Certainly not as good as corney. Kind of falls into this NI tweener range. Not good / big enough for a starting Wil, large for a S. Jessie briggs range. That 16 draft was pretty riddled with landmines too. And we managed to have an excellent draft despite giving up the 1st in our bid for his rights.
-
both true.
