I always find it odd that Kirk rarely, if ever, seems to mention these things before the MBB Twitter account does. Always appreciate the fact that Darrin Bauming will at least acknowledge how he finds these unannounced signings. Must be pure coincidence with Kirk.
Anyways ... I like this guy. Good motor. Good size and speed for a DE.
Ah, I just threw a name in by that point anyway... why isn't he?
Was given a medical redshirt last season to gain another year of NCAA eligibility because he was hurt all year.
I'd really like to see Winnipeg go after Shaq M-L
If they're after a Thunder / Lightning combo in the backfield, he's got a good chance to develop into the lightning half of it. After hearing how impressive his pass-pro skills showed at the combine, I'm thinking he could be an option at 15 for us. Would be curious to see how he is rated now.
Big deal. They got a spare part in a trade, worked him out, decided they didn't want him and released him.
It's not like he was the big asset in this deal.
lol at any of us acting like we actually know what the right number for Drew Willy is.
To me, he needs to be paid as if he is in the middle tier of starting QBs. 4-5-6 range. Depending on how they view his trajectory, maybe the 3-4-5 range.
If that number is 400k then it's 400k.
I wonder if he's the guy we dropped in order to add Jordan Reaves.
I would be surprised if they dropped anyone they believed had a legitimate interest in being here in order to add Jordan Reaves. Bombers dropping Bonner just lends itself well to showing just how fluid the negotiation lists are in the CFL. At this time of year, it wouldn't surprise me if the Bombers were making multiple changes to their negotiation list every day.
What is most compelling about this situation to me is to see how many people jump off the Willy bandwagon and forget how difficult it can be to acquire a franchise QB.
We need to keep him. Don't let him bend you over the barrel, but if you're going to overpay for a player, it should be him.
I saw an interesting stat last night - if the Jets need 11 points in 10 games (before last night) then if you do 10 game splits all year, there's only been one time (the initial 10 games of the year) they didn't meet that requirement.
Super thrilled about the Edmonton regional ... definitely the best regional of the three
Pospischil should definitely get an invite to the main combine, I'd be very surprised if he didn't. Curious to see Janke, Johnson, Tsoumpas, Lawrence and Kankolongo as well, I could see them plus a couple hogs all having a shot at being invited to the main combine.
