25/26 CFL (Non Bombers) Off Season Thread
SpeedFlex27 replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
They mentioned Schultz aftyer he died. The year that he was on the panel & missed the season they did to Schultz what they did to Dunigan. His name was never mentioned. -
Gack!

Blue Bombers -- 2025/26 Offseason -- Discussion Thread
SpeedFlex27 replied to johnzo's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
That's been the complaint about Osh for years. He trots out extra Canadians at positions where we have better American players. It goes on every year & then he scratches his head wondering why it didn't work in big games that we needed to win. he has never maximized our roater properly. We really don't know how good we can be. -

That's the 2018-2022 Walters. This version isn't even a shadow of his former self. He has chosen not to spend $$$. I don't know why as he has the resources to do so if he wants to. We'll see how he does this coming February. -

The thing is, we can but will we?? I have zero faith in walterts actually doing so. He has a grid for players. RBs (other than Brady) are worth so much. Receivers, linebackers, etc. He won't budge bringing in other team's free agents or keeping ours. -

It probably is. But it'll set the market for running backs like Diedrick Mills. & James Butler as well. We lose Brady what's the proability we replace him with a running back that's even close to what Oliveira does for us??? That's the problem. Replacing him. Not paying him. Again, paying him isn't the problem. It's replacing him. -

If that's the market, so be it. I believe even our tone deaf, can't read the room, sits on his ass in free agency of a GM in Kyle Walters knows he has to sign Brady. To make up for it get rid of some deadwood on the roster. Especially one entitled vet who thinks he has a job for life, in particular. We're all going.... WTH??? Almost every position costs more, now. QB, receiver OL... About the only position you can still sign cheap vets is defensive back. . That'll probably be changing as well. -

25/26 CFL (Non Bombers) Off Season Thread
SpeedFlex27 replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
They only talked about Schultz after he passed away. When he was sick for the entire year he was gone, they left an empty chair Never explained why. Never mentioned Schultz once all season. Then the next season, he joined the Argos radio crew where he worked until he died. Only then, did TSN acknowlege Schultz. Hear! Hear!! -

No, not a single thank you. Typical of TSN. They did the same thing to Chris Schultz. He just never existed. As far as Barker goes, Shallow insight?? Out of touch opinions??? He's the Argo GM now so his opinions count for a lot. What did you actually expect, a Rhodes Scholar?? What does Daviss Sanchez bring to the group on the panel?? Absolutely nothing. And who got rewarded instead of being fired for doing such a lousy job??? Kyle Walters. It's not the Canadian Mafia naymore. It's a plush country club. Where no one is accountable & they'll all have a job as long as Wade Miller is in charge. Absolutely no accountability. What in the world has Walters done to rate three more years? -

Sunderland was a horribe GM. But then why wouldn't a CFL team bring a guy who was a horrible GM so he can destroy another CFL team? Make perfect sense. -

Gittens? Speaking of free agents... This is Kyle Walters we're talking about. We all know DT is another position we need to majorly upgrade. Jaylon Hutchings was a CFL All Star in calgary. My expectation is the bar won't be set very high. We have no chance of signing him but hey, we all know that Walters & Osh will bring back Jake. -

Sure. Why not? I'm not expecting this offs season to be any better than last. Someone like Nield would do well, here. We also shouldn't be so high & mighty cuz we know all Walters will do is find the cheapest bang for the buck in free agency. -

I think the CFL will announce the cap in mid January & not mid Feb like last year. That should give time to prepare. -

I'd take him. But I like Nield better. -

I believe the cap is going up again substantially. By how much, who knows? This time, Walters better be prepared & quit blaming the CFLPA for everything. -

You mean Kurley Gittens Jr. Sure, he'd be okay. He had a disappointing season in Edmonton nwhere his production was down. I believe he was injured. . -

Oliveira was the heir apparent to Harris. It was obvious that he was losing it as he got older. He definetly lost a step at the end of his career. We don't have an heir apprent ar RB or QB. If we let him walk then we'll have another huge hole. Yes, you will lose STH's as we'll lose more than win. Just look west to Calgary. They let their veterans leave. They went from a team drawing 25-30000 a game to 12000-19000 a game. Fans were pissed off. I see the same scenario here starting to happen with the Bombers if Brady leaves. . -

You need to keep your star players. Someone like Brady is needed to sell tickets. If he leaves they could lose as substtantial amount of STH's. Other teams have kept their marquis players. Walters has to figure it out. -

SpeedFlex27 replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Well, the reality is if you don't pay then you lose. If you were a GM you'd be fired in your third year (standard contract) as your team is losing. It's all about winning. And prioritizing whjo you sign. Taking the money designated for Jake Thomas & giving it to someone else in order to keep another.. -
