  1. Much better than Brett Carter, but not as good Nik Demski IMO. The comparison I've always used for Goodrich is Johnny Forzani.
  2. I'll be in the chatroom if anyone is interested in joining tomorrow. I'll be around all day starting at 11 AM EST (an hour ahead of free agency opening) See you there.
  3. What do you consider notable?
  4. Edmonton is a team that will make some noise as well
  5. I asked Ed Tait - the reason he listed Kurt Goodrich on that article is because the Bombers asked him to. He'll be in camp. Great news.
  6. Not really.
  7. Quite honestly if one of Rogers / Bryant isn't a Bomber I'll be shocked. At this point, I'm expecting us to go after those two and Jackson. Maybe Wojt but who knows what his deal is, his camp has been incredibly quiet.
  8. DB Johnny Adams from Michigan State and OL David Mims from Virginia Union http://bluebombers.com/article/bombers-add-DB-and-OL
  9. Bona fide Me First football player too. Pretty pathetic display during the GC & afterwards. #gottagrowup Get used to it. Its the 21st century athlete ...Our boy Toews says hi.... I wouldn't be so quick to anoint him a golden boy. He's not the nicest guy either from a lot of accounts.
  10. I don't really think it passes for confirmation at all, seen as how he favorited my tweet about coming back to Winnipeg as well yesterday. But that being said, he's clearly resigned there.
  11. If all of a sudden Bilukidi or Mulumba fall in our lap, we're laughing. Anybody know how likely that might be? I haven't heard much, but wasn't one of them outta PR time...? They both are, which means the clock is ticking. The odds are in our favor of them being on our roster (both of them) by 2016 for sure. Bilukidi probably first. His games played numbers have dropped every year - from 13 to 7 to 4 and he's recorded 10 tackles in 3 years. His PR time is gone. He's going to be a fourth year player, which means he's roughly 200k more expensive than a rookie who can probably offer a similar impact.
  12. If all of a sudden Bilukidi or Mulumba fall in our lap, we're laughing.
  13. An offensive line of Bryant / Greaves / Picard / Wojt / Daniels next year would be a big improvement.
  14. Nothing I've seen to indicate he wouldn't be back.
  15. REC Toney Clemons out of Colorado (former 7th round pick in 2012) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5ZlTljJXjw DB Demetrius Wright out of USC (we knew about this one) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4284CpsLVcw
  16. I guess this basically summarizes... but I'm wondering if Rids can provide a comparable or where he projects to be drafted?? Too early to judge where to place him in the draft, I need more info. He's got a lot of options as he originally went to Penn as a DL and played as a freshman there. Transferred to Michigan State and also shifted to offense. As a blocker he's a throw back fullback. Makes great plays on the linebackers to open up running lanes. If a coach was interested in running a big formation especially in red zone moments he'd fit right into that. On the plus side I'll have an interview with him in the Guide. If he goes to the combine, it'll be a good opportunity for him to show where he fits best. The Bombers need a guy like that though, Pontbriand is getting up there in age.
  17. Looks like Kane had a date with the Roxy.
  18. Wojt is better than Neufeld by a considerable margin, imo.
  19. You can see from the tape that he's got a LOT of work to do. He's way too much of an unfinished product to work at the collegiate level right off the bat. The plays he's making are plays being made by running backs with poor vision for the most part. If you run away from him at the line, he's not going to catch you. He's also being tied up by guys giving up 100 pounds to him way too often. The thing he has going for him is that he's apparently got a great attitude. If he lets them, Dobie and his staff have a good shot at shaping him into a great defender. OR the alternative is that he converts to OL.
  20. The crazy thing is he's actually slimmed down. He used to weigh 380.
  21. Brett Jones would be a great signing for some team, but I can't see him being a Blue Bombers target with Picard already here and Goossen in the pipeline.
  22. Some guys just want to test free agency. Makes sense, they want to get paid. Especially as an American with limited earning potential up here. As for a right guard ... nothing wrong with Neufeld, but he's a bit injury prone. It's important, in my opinion, to have guys to push guys for internal competition and Wojt (less so Eppele) is a difference maker when healthy.
  23. Top 10 free agents out there still if I'm Walters: 10. Greg Ellingson - Could be a very thrifty move to upgrade the WR3 spot in our offense. 9. Joe Eppele - If he's interested in continuing on with a football career, Eppele would be an immediate contender to earn reps at RG in 2015. 8. Sam Hurl - Depth Canadian who Richie Hall will be familiar with ... may be given an opportunity to earn more reps in Winnipeg. 7. Johnny Sears - He may be a current Bomber, but in one week he'll be a free agent and he's still a priority to bring back if willing. 6. Brad Sinopoli/Sam Giguere - You can go with either receiver in this case, both are suspected to be looking east of the Manitoba/Ontario border for employment close to home, but if not, could be a solid add as a starting Canadian 5. SirVincent Rogers - if the other option is off the table at LT, Rogers would be a great add to our line. An immediate improvement at the most important spot in the trenches. 4. Ernest Jackson - Built in chemistry from their days at the University of Buffalo, you can believe Drew Willy would be thrilled to have Jackson as the third import receiver in our offense. 3. Greg Wojt - Right guard was a position of inconsistency for us last year and if Wojt can return to the form he had as a starter in 2013 coming off injury, it would be a strong move to improve the offensive line. 2. Taylor Reed - Kyle Walters actually gave Reed his start in the CFL - could be a good bet to return back to Winnipeg in the middle of Richie Hall's defense. 1. Stanley Bryant - Probably pound for pound the best offensive lineman in the entire CFL, he's a 28 year old import who is just hitting his prime and has been the model of consistency since entering the league. He's been overlooked by many fans around here because he's not Canadian but he would have the biggest impact on our franchise next year for sure if he became our left tackle. Honorable mention: Rennie Curran, Nik Lewis, Spencer Watt
  24. Tough to say, he hasn't really played much. When he was healthy and a lineup regular, he was an elite import OL.
  25. Lol Stanley Bryant is gon get PAID.
