    Here comes the Winnipeg media to butcher the facts on this guy as usual.

     

    No investigative efforts whatsoever.

    Careful, you'll get blocked  ;)

     

     

    Seriously. Is this real life right now? How bad can a reporter be?

    RB Travon Jones (5-8, 171), who played for Sacramento State in 2012, has tweeted the Bombers have invited him to training camp. #bn

    @PaulWiecek he hasn't played for Sac State since 2007, Paul

    Check that earlier tweet -- RB Travon Jones played for Sacramento State in 2007, more recently with McPherson College in 2012. #bn

    @PaulWiecek He left McPherson in 2011, Paul

  2. Don't mind the additional competition at NI Safety, or a depth DB, but just wish Alexander was more of a special teams ace.  Depth DB's need to be special teams aces. 

     

    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?

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

     

    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.

    According to Rod Pederson, 4 teams have made offers to Jock Sanders. I wonder if the Bombers are one of those 4 teams?

    He'd likely command a salary in the $120k range but he is extremely versatile; he's a RB, SB, KR and PR. Only 26 years old.

    Is that what Pederson said?

    No. Those are my thoughts. Why?

     

     

    Seems way high for a guy that isn't going to play more than about 30% of your offensive snaps.

    Perhaps my memories are tainted with his constant crying to the refs and half efforts going to the ball in the last two years.

    Maybe this is good that we are shedding the old players and bringing in new blood from winning teams.

    We did no such thing, he retired on his own terms which I respect enormously.

    Unless you believe friesen who claims he was forced out

     

     

    I can't stand Friesen but that's not what he meant. He was just saying that like Stegall and Brown, TE was forced to retire without winning a ring. As in ... he didn't win a ring before his time was up.
