  1. Only in 2000 when he finally decided to just hand the ball to Drummond and Millington.
  2. Walters did mention Brad Sinopoli who played most of last season for the Stamps but as the story goes when Walters mentioned his name Mack said "who is Brad Sinopoli"? Walters also apparently wanted Scott Mitchell over Henoc Muamba. Nobody is bullet proof. Source? I recall Muamba being a unanimous pick for the Bombers, in fact Walters did a lot of the leg work that upped his stock. Etienne was the guy who had 5 good minutes at the combine and got Mack's undies in a bunch.
  3. Better make that deal fast. Foster is a free agent in 5 days.
  4. You're right. The league should never let any new QB's in, they all must be part of the "starter" club. Willy has the same numbers Mike Reilly did heading into last off-season, and has thrown twice as many passes as Reilly had at that point. No.. Not saying willy is **** because he hasn't started.. You see My blue colored have faded to clear lenses.. Willy may become the next great bomber QB.. but the probability of that statically is pretty low.. He is unproven and until he proves that he is better then Hall or proves himself to be the next starter, Hes what he was.. A backup. I'm hoping he plays at the same level as reilly did.. But i'm realistic in beleiving our o-line is not conducive to slowing down the rush of the game for inexperience Qbs. Sask had a monster O-line Giving their Qbs lots of time to settle into the game and find open recievers.. Vs our offence being built around having outlet passes because we can't handle the rush.. Sask's OL was terrible for large chunks of 2013 due to injury...they had to start Neufeld out of ratio desperation for 2012...remember Willy's scrambling in the Banjo Bowl...must have been due to a monster OL. And guess which OL was better at run blocking in 2012?
  5. Etienne had some moments, and he certainly never backed down, but on the whole he just never could compete physically. He's got very good hands, but doesn't mean a whole lot when you can't get loose very often.

  7. Seriously? That's bottom of the barrel, man... why not bring back Hargs instead? Not every signing has to be one worth putting a front page headline on. They can't all be Baboulas.
  8. Doubt we have any interest in Glenn. Bellefeuille was still trying to replace Glenn with Porter at the end of the 2011 season. Is Glenn swallowing his pride to go back to the town that rode him out on a rail plus the meh relationship he has with Marcel too much to ask ? I'm sure Glenn wants to play. I'm not sure he would be preferred over Willy, who has a very vocal advocate in the front office. I think Glenn will be stuck rotting in Ottawa, wishing he hadn't extended with Calgary.

  10. LOL, if you would honestly rather have Desjardins as your GM then inbox me your banking information, I've got this Nigerian prince that needs a bank account to transfer his $15 million of oil money to that he secretly inherited from his uncle. Easiest million I ever made.
  11. Conditional pick. A 6th if he makes our roster out of training camp bumped up to a 4th if he dresses for 12 games, a 3rd if he starts 9 games. Certainly wouldn't give up anything up front for a guy who hasn't shown he's recovered from the first major ligament (and broken ankle) injury before the next one happened (ACL).
  12. 27 when the season starts.
  13. It's not so much the broken bones, ruptured tendons as the severity and frequency. Even a guy like Buck has only had one injury that severe, the elbow in 2010, and you could argue he never returned the same after.
  14. Take a look at the free agent list.
  15. Or how he projects as a starting centre, when he's played his entire life at tackle and guard and only worked at centre as a utility lineman last season when BC was desperate. Steve Morley practiced at centre for us too...I think he might end up being a good one.
  16. Dicroce was the worst receiver we had in training camp last year by a long shot. Couldn't get separation from CFL DB's in skelly, struggled with hands in unopposed drills. Combine that with the recurring Lisfranc issues with his foot, not a prospect I'd worry about.
  17. And really just embarrassing for him (although the bar is very low) and the Free Press. Should have signed Muamba last off-season, during the season so NFL teams couldn't get near him. Does he not have a memory? Bombers have been offering him a blank cheque extension the whole way, the guy has been working towards the NFL since before the Bombers even drafted him. Maybe he prefers a Central American negotiation style with free agents. The Bombers could kidnap their family members and tell them to sign with us or else.
  18. The last two times he stepped on the field in a professional football game he ended up with his foot pointing a different direction and a torn ACL. Joe Montana would have low value in that scenario.
  19. The ignore function is a wonderful feature of this message board.
  20. Those names are in alphabetical order...not a depth chart.
  21. True but if we are saving money on a QB, and Henoc goes to the NFL, I imagine we'll have some cash to throw around. We need Canadian starters. By my count, if things stay the way they are, there are 6 Canadian starters from other teams that will hit free agency... Bourke, Laurent, Butler, Myddelton, Kohlert, and Emry. It would be nice to land one or more of those names. I wouldn't say Myddleton is a starting quality OL. Maybe for Ottawa.
  22. Not an American. From Vancouver.
  23. Probably like $185,000-$200,000. Nobody is really desperate for NI tackles with the way most teams are using the ratio, and he's got injury concerns.
