Do we know if Allen can play corner? I don't remember him taking any reps last year at anything other than safety -

if wed had any success finding rookie dlinemen in the last 4 years i would agree with you. | am hoping that Jenkins or Jaworski turn out to be gems but our track record hasnt been great. I think Sayles is a big ugrade over woods and adams. -

yeah Sayles has only been an allstar the last 3 years, I don't see another dt who is a free agent that is better. -

who would qualify as a big get? Pickings might be very slim by free agent time -

To me the issue is once again we are spending all this money to retain players on a team that wasnt good enough last year We need to improve our core -

Totally agree, the biggest factor isnt what Jake haters here think, its who the players respect and listen to -

Doesnt matter what we think. if the players have confidence in him, such as Zac its a big head start over Hogan who had very little -

Ok Ive got to ask the question, is any vet that we have worth what were paying him cause according to posts we'd be hard pressed to field a team of anything but entry level players -

thus far Walters has signed 3 cdns all in their prime and given Wilson an extension again in his prime. And all 2-3 yr deals. Kudos for great job. -
Blue Bombers -- 2025/26 Offseason -- Discussion Thread
Pete replied to johnzo's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
your right, the thing that makes ths contract palatable is that having a cdn starting rb allows us to have an import elsewhere. If we were to use a 3rd import on oline it would easily save us 100k or more for a free agent cdn. We have to get away from just pegging in cdns at traditional spots and utilizing cap money by looking at the forest and not just the trees. The best way to get around this is to draft effectively and actually play the younger (cheaper) talent -

Hutchings would be this years Orimilade, but were busy signing guys like this https://3downnation.com/2025/12/08/winnipeg-blue-bombers-sign-well-traveled-offensive-lineman-tairiq-stewart/ -

I'd take either one, between one of them and demski we might get an entire season -
Blue Bombers -- 2025/26 Offseason -- Discussion Thread
Pete replied to johnzo's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
the thing is all Walters did was look at the under the radar guys. we need more than that at the receiver position. -
Does anyone know how the extra 400k this year factors into this? It appears some teams such as the Bombers utilized it to increase their depth making use of the one game injury to keep additional players on the roster, maybe others held back on more of it to allow them to sign players such as Hatcher and Philpot both of whom received significant bonuses which could be put towards this years sms..(which was smart btw) Originally there was talk of the cflpa trying to make sure the 400k was evenly distributed but lits just as likely as it goes to elite players

If Hogan had a one year contract (which is possible since Oshea's contract was up this year ), I'm sure Walters would say "were just doing our due diligence to weigh all the options, including Hogan -
Not sure what the right price would be..sounds like it would take 225-275 to get him as he wants to be paid as a top reciever, but if BC goes after Olivera it could be interesting

Permission to talk: Is O'Shea leaving?
Pete replied to sportmentary2012's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
as I said we had the weakest corners in the league, yet we had the best pass defense, in terms of opponent completion %, then Nichols must be a superstar to cover the whole field -
Permission to talk: Is O'Shea leaving?
Pete replied to sportmentary2012's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
not corner related?? Did you see how often Bridges, then Bonds, then Lawson were torched? And how whenever opposing teams needed 6-10 yds they just threw the quick out? We gave up a lot of deep passes and on almost every one a corner was beaten -
Permission to talk: Is O'Shea leaving?
Pete replied to sportmentary2012's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Hard to say about Holm, how much of those times he was exposed was due to having new and underwhelming corners. I would be inclined to let OShea and Walters determine worth -
Permission to talk: Is O'Shea leaving?
Pete replied to sportmentary2012's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
thankyou but I saw enough of Bridges, Bonds and even Lawson jt last year to not want to lose any of Allen, Nichols, and Holm. I'd also keep Houston.
