Same thing every time with you. Why aren't you ripping BC? They struck out on every player they wanted. Rip Saskatchewan for losing Sanders, Butler and Schmitt. Every time someone signs in this league, another team or more loess out. Get used to it. No team gets everybody they want. Rip Wally? Winningest coach in CFL history & uber successful GM? Walters & O'Shea only hope to win half as many games as Buono has the past 25 years. Sask built their team to win a GC at home & now they're up against the cap. Their 1 year gamble paid off. Somehow I knew you'd come after me even though everyone else kept the discussion civil. Why don't you just hit ignore if you find peoples comments not to your liking all the time? I won't miss you. You won't miss me. So,please, go ahead.. You're always getting PO'd about something. Not uncivil at it. Just suggesting you would benefit by tempering your expectations. The thing people often forget when free agency comes up is that the teams don't decide who they sign. The players do. It's not up to us. You could have a free agent that 6 teams want and they all handle everything properly with the negotations. He's still only going to sign one contract.

Cauchy + a 4th round pick to Ottawa for Kevin Glenn would make a lot of sense. They need depth behind Fraser.

The "2012 highlights" video that was uploaded in December 2011. No doubt it's full of clips from the future.Yep saw your reply on twitter. You are definitely correct there. Gotta respect Bauming for trying to support a colleague though. I like Bauming. I like Bauming too. But it's just one more example of how much fact checking they go through as professionals. I just feel like fans in Winnipeg deserve a bit more responsibility from our writers.

I'm well aware. That was also 4-5 years ago. And he wasn't much beyond average at it then.

I'm still wondering why we re-signed Dan West. It's either a trade coming or the plan is to start 2 NI DBs, which I suggested might happen in a previous thread and got laughed at. ... It could be (and probably is) neither of those things. Newman, West, Bucknor, Muamba, Alexander and Sherman boils down to 6 guys under contract. I'm assuming you're counting Robertson as well. You could easily play 1 Canadian safety, 1 Canadian nickel (which is what my best guess is) and a backup on the 42. Practice roster another one, maybe two and there you go. Maybe they attempt to trade one, I'm sure they'd exhaust all those options before cutting a guy outright but there's no way I can see us starting 2 Canadians in the secondary when we have the import talent that we have there.

I wouldn't expect to find any accurate or relevant scouting reports, this guy is 27 years old and hasn't played meaningful football in almost 7 years. I'm not even 100% convinced that he's signed a contract.

lol it just annoys me. If you're going to steal information I've tweeted out hours ago, you could at least either a) give credit where credit is due or b ) get your facts straight. I wouldn't expect credit if I was posting it on my personal account, but posted on our website's Twitter? Come on now.

Careful, you'll get blocked Seriously. Is this real life right now? How bad can a reporter be?

Here comes the Winnipeg media to butcher the facts on this guy as usual. No investigative efforts whatsoever.

If I had to guess regarding DI spots, I'd guess we use one on a guy who can be an offensive skill player / returner, one on a DL and one on a hybrid LB/DB type.

That's exactly my concern about it. How does he fit on the roster? I don't expect him to end up starting at safety for us and if he's not starting, why put him on the 42 if he's not a solid ST guy?

Just wanted to let everyone know that they can expect a lot more activity on our Twitter feed from here on out. If it's something you use, be sure to give us a follow. We're going to try our best to include content for our members that they'll learn from us first.

Donovan Alexander Not a big fan.

Just curious ... who did you have in mind?

I'm not sure how I feel about that ... but it sure is interesting.

He's a prep coach for QBs entering college or the NFL. A lot like what Marc Trestman does during his offseasons. He just does it all year round. Dahlquist has worked with recent QBs like Marcus Mariota, Zach Mettenberger and Tajh Boyd. He also helped prep Terrell Pryor for the NFL.

as long as, Walters is willing to engage in bidding when that happens, thats ok It will be tough ... he lives in Montreal, so they have a leg up. He'll have lots of interested teams.

Ted Laurent telling teams he won't make a decision until after the NFL Draft ... so 3 months.

Also worth noting, he's been the QB coach at every NCAA job he's ever held.

Offensive assistant at Idaho State from 1968-1970 Offensive assistant at Utah from 1971-1973. Offensive assistant at Oregon in 1974. Offensive coordinator at Oregon from 1975-1976. Offensive coordinator at Boise State from 1977-1982. Offensive coordinator at Iowa State from 1983-1986. Offensive coordinator at Illinois from 1987-1989 Offensive coordinator at Texas from 1992-1997. Passing game coordinator and QB coach at UNLV in 1999. Head coach of Scottish Claymores (NFLE) from 2001-2003

This seems like a very interesting hire. He's old ... 71 years old ... but he's got a TON of NCAA OC experience at big name schools.

As per Darren Cameron.

Crazy that I saw him at the wedding social last night about ten minutes before he left and then he comes home to that.
