  1. Damn that salary cup allways getting in the way. It doesnt allways have to go up, you have to atleast maintain a similar level of play. Cant drop off as bad as turners did.
  2. I imagine so. Though im sure cutting the first few pay days they are due doesnt hurt either. I kind of thought turner might be able to bounce back this year. Atleast we arent keeping guys longer then we should. Good luck to em im sure both will be in camp else where this year. inb4 riders.
  3. No1 pick in the cfl draft is a real hand gernade. The BPA might come and play in a year or 3 or never. Id be in favor of trading up In a deal that moves a depth guy/ neglister or similar range picks. I wouldnt wanna go 2 for 1 with our 1st. 2nd and a lower pick for moving up a handful of spots if an OL drops i would do though.
  4. I dont like our chances short of trading up, but if one of those OL drop from the top 6 or so to us that'd be a minor lotto winning. Personally, short of a crazy high level talent that isnt nfl bound id have a hard time passing on a top 10 prospect thats an OL from laval.
  5. Some real good rookies in this crop. Hope they bring it at camp. Like both of these guys.
  6. my 2c having sat all over the stadium not being a season ticket holder any more, isnt a seat in the house to worry about being stuck in. Maybe too close to the rum hut if you dont like drunk people lol. Ive never hesitated on seats due to location and i dont think ill ever regret it.
  7. Im not sure how many DIs we get. I think +1 per extra NI but im not sure. At this point im hoping goossen is starter ready but im kind a worried about him and his progression. Neufeld is healthy about as often as matt sherridan is slim too. As for WRs, this is easily the best they've been in ages going into camp. Really excited to see some of the young guys step up too. I think thats gonna be the best battle in camp.
  8. i never get cuts before TC cut down day. But We have seen some guys look all world in mini camp and never even seem to show up to main camp. Its early but WR looks like the position battle to watch this year.
  9. you are right. I watched some of his various game high lights. Guy has great intangibles blocks really well and caught some awful passes.
  10. Reese looks like a monster gonna be a sick TC cant wait for it to start.
  11. He got hurt. But imop he wasnt a dangerous returner more of a steady guy whose easily replaceable. Thats why i compared him to sutherland a fast guy who wasnt particularly dangerous and returned kicks for a year then was just gone.
  12. I dont think a reasonable deal is out there.
  13. WINNIPEG, MB – The Winnipeg Blue Bombers today announce the club has signed International wide receiver/returner Solomon Patton. Patton (5-9, 177, Florida, October 17, 1990 in Mobile, AL) was Tampa Bay’s primary kick and punt returner in 2014, averaging 11.2 yards per punt return, and 23.1 on kickoff returns. He spent last season in Denver’s training camp, while also spending a brief period with Arizona. Patton had a standout career at the University of Florida, playing four seasons (2010-2013), and appearing in 43 games, totalling 52 receptions for 635 yards and six touchdowns. He also returned 39 kicks for 1,079 yards and one touchdown. Patton was voted team MVP after his senior season, and set a team record for highest kick return average in a season with 29.2 yards per return. Interesting depth at the KR spot for TC. Kinda sounds like vinny sutherland to me.
  14. EEEEEEEEEEK this would be a huge huge move if we finally got him. As for tall WRs, it does have some strong advantages. I wouldnt place any skill or attribute over the ability to catch, but size is up there right after it. Weve seen a few guys over the years who couldnt catch a cold. Kamau incompleterson hands of stone cloman, etc. Having a guy with a 8-10" height advantage who can iso and run a fade is huge especially in the red zone. That said id take a guy who after catching is more of a technically sound wr. Great route running, knowing when to change gears, find the soft spot in zone etc over the burners and giants who cant do any of that.
  15. Looks good, hope they get it built. More new stadiums is great for the league.
  16. Looks like he could be a gooder look forward to seeing him in camp.
  17. bout the age khari jones broke into the cfl isnt it? that said i dont think tebow would be more then a back up, he wont turn into a cfl qb and a decent passer in short order.
  18. he cant throw the ball haha is he gonna play RB?
  19. I think we have some great pieces in the front office and coaching staff. Im glad we havent gone and fired them and are letting them develop. That said in pro sports, especially the CFL you dont get long term rebuilding periods. Weve fired people over shorter periods of time then mos and this management regime. If they dont make the play offs this year i dont think there is any chance that group is left intact. Maybe wade stays, maybe. Every one under that is gone for sure. If wade wont do it then im sure theyll can him too. I think very highly of this group, and I believe they will show that the wait has been well worth it. They have the tool sets to develop this team into a long term competitor.
  20. No kidding. He showed plenty of promise and is in no way ready to be judged. Henoc was similar in his first year. Teams, bench and a few un spectacular plays on D. waggoner has a great skill set and seems to have the desire to work to become great. Im really looking forward to seeing what he brings in TC.
  21. Yeah thatd be pretty awesome. Really hope we can land him.
  22. Matt walter was cut by calgary, he'd be good to bring in for rb depth.
  23. xD true enough. Dirty old regina in winter with there no plow BS and no place to do any thing sucks. The hammer just allways seems dirty and grubby. Nothing better then being in dirty old regina after a bomber win though.
  24. A few teams did really well in free agency. The bombers are certainly among them. We will probably have the most improved roster going into TC but you never know alot of moves left to go. Hard to hate the moves weve made from any perspective.
  25. Please can we just have the retro uni's full time. PRETTY PLEASE! the last few years have been brutal enough just give us this one.
