me too man, me too. I'm blown away what kind of player and personality he is and that he willingly came to winnipeg. So glad we landed him and hope he wants to be here for as long as he can.
Yea I saw this last night and I couldn't even dignify it with a response. Since he joined the team he stepped up as a leader on our squad and I think he was very good at it. Locker room and side line leadership, not like Doug Brown's stoic quiet lead by example but grab the bull by the horns type..
silly rival fans.
they literally have to wait for their entry level contract to expire or convince the team to trade their rights I believe. its happened before.
or they can go back to school I think and somehow this releases the player from their drafted obligation. Not 100%for sure but i can happen.
....?!?!?! except hes NOT A ROOKIE. he played every game was in on tackles on both ST and defensive side of the ball. hes not a seasoned vet but one year thru camp and a full season a rookie does not make. focus buddy, focus
Kohlert aint going no where. Richards even healthy will still need a decent season of learning the ropes at full game speed as that hip injury really kept him out of the loop all year.. I don't expect much change in our receiver depth lineup to be honest (for canadians that is) JFG as backup with bastien or richards as depth would be how i would shake it down.. Bastien may be on the outside looking in at this point.
And i never said we had to.. Im saying why assume they are all below average before even seeing some of them play the positions? Wagonner has some excellent credentials, morgan and jones are getting close to proven commodities so they need to show now or else sters for life. Bucknor has gotta be better then below average if hes survived here and other teams for this long..
just saying no need to jump to "NONE ARE WORTHY!!" Right off the hop is all.
