Sorry guys, whenever I hear Walters, I think of Kevin "Lizard" Walters, who was Adler's producer at CJOB.
I was once so thoroughly disgusted with the Adler show and the commercials that I sent Lizard a huge (well written) rant explaining why I think he sucks -- and he actually responded and asked me to remain a listener.
So to that end, Kevin, I mean, Kyle Walters, is now Lizard. And he is the worst GM in the league.
Ya kno, it doesn't surprise me one ounce that you already think this without even getting out of the off-season..
Stay classy bud. Keep the faith!!
Forget class, sell me on all the great things that have transpired this off season.
Granted, he still has many months to make it happen, but so far are you honestly impressed?
Or are you just being "positive?"
Oy. Can we sell you on the fact that we avoided a giant albatross of a contract on Burris; and that Hamilton and Kent Austin were a flashier sell for Collaros instead?
Way too early to be passing judgment on Walters. The mess that Mack left the organization in... pile on all that you want. But way too early to judge Walters.
Fair response and I appreciate you indulging my question.
Still, he could've easily over paid for Burris and just cut the guy next year.
I am fine with Glenn, but Desjardins is going to anally pound us for him. And Lizard is going to have to take it.
Which is a great idea if you're looking to solve one problem by creating another one. If that's how he thinks business is done, he'll quickly develop a reputation that is just as bad as the one we have now. We're trying to rebuild our image as an appealing football club to join up with. Signing guys only to cut them a year later for no reason other than money troubles is not how you establish that.

I'm pretty much out of sources at this point lol I rarely get any information nowadays

Quite honestly, I have no idea how you come to your conclusions regarding offensive linemen.
I'd love to hear your expanded analysis on why a guy like Baboulas is a better OL than Sorenson.

It's kind of a strange time to start a ratio discussion. This is literally the worst time of year to look at a roster. All you can do is subtract from your roster at this point, you can't add any new certainties to it until a week from now.
BS you can only subtract from your roster at this time of year... Esks lost Krausnick to Ottawa and then signed Baboulas just a few days ago to shore up their depth at Centre. Plus Dublanko as an ST addition. I'd certainly take Baboulas over Kowalczuk.
Nothing wrong with taking a look at where we stand this year as opposed to this time last year... see where we stand with FA coming.
Sorry, I stand corrected. You can make acquisitions of spare parts that were discarded by the rest of the league too.

He should have been moved last year when Alex Hall was, the writing was on the wall from day one, piss poor management has and is this teams biggest draw back.
The best way to get a player to return to your franchise after an NFL stint is to alienate them and make them feel as unwanted as possible on their way out.

The pick itself is irrelevant the GM's rationale is what matters and in this case he is contradicting himself, which should be concerning.
There's really no contradiction. Giving up a second round pick in a draft that isn't very deep doesn't mean he should just throw away the 2nd overall pick. The draft isn't deep, that doesn't mean there is ONE good player.

Anyone saying the Burris deal could be a bargain when the cap goes up is forgetting that there's about a 99.9% chance he's got a stipulation in his deal that the value goes up if the cap goes up.

I fully expect to win no more than 4 games in 2014.

To be fair ...
An agent expecting a client to get a NFL contract isn't exactly groundbreaking.
-
Jim Popp has already called Desjardins about Glenn and probably offered their #1 for him. Popp could care less as he'll probably be gone in a couple of years.
Then Neiswander becomes available
OH PHEW!

That's a nice thought but there are three things here ...
a) Ottawa seems to have no interest in getting Glenn
We don't have Drew Willy signedc) Would Glenn really want to come here to work with Marcel Bellefeuille?
-
So much freaking out around here for no reason. This really isn't the big deal that people are making it out to be. I'm still confident we'll be in good shape come July...
I'm not freaking out about missing on Burris. I'm freaking out because it's obvious that we are not in any way, shape or form a desirable destination for players who have a choice. And that's a problem.

Blue Bombers Better Bring Back Boltus

Only way the Bombers trade for Glenn is if they miss out on Drew Willy. Which I fully expect to happen.
If I'm Drew Willy, I'd probably rather play for Schwabish Hall in the GFL
GO UNICORNS!

Well, put me in the "shocked" column.
We must absolutely be considered a joke of a franchise for Burris to not come here. He'd rather sign with a team that offers direct competition? Good lord.
The idea of Henry Burris never really appealed to me, my first choice was always Collaros but for the Bombers to skip out on Collaros and identify Burris as their #1 choice and then NOT get him?
This is the worst offseason.

I'm not really that high on him, I just think that if they're going to go 3 NI receivers, even if a guy like that is semi useful, you can put him at the boundary WR and put those rebounding skills to use.
