Are you sure Sorensen, Morley, Parenteau, and Kohlert are all FA's? I haven't seen that reported for any of them. Foster and Etienne yes, the others, not so sure.And just because Ottawa says something does not mean they are going to do it. Yes I'm 100% sure my FA's listed are in fact FA's.Based on...?

As far as the OL goes, we can't just keep getting younger. We need to sign a free agent centre, guard, or both to add some veteran presence there.

Prediction: Who Will Be Our Leading Receiver?
Atomic replied to Atomic's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Interesting, not much love for Denmark and looks like he's going to finish as our most productive receiver. Figures! -
Time? With 2 or 3 year contracts and no restricted free agency, CFL teams don't have the luxury of time. If he bolts to another team this offseason, what the hell was the point? 3 years down the tubes. At least if the Esks lost Coehoorn they got 2 very good years out of him.
-
He should be the first to go.
-
I guess we'll never know. All we can say is that Coehoorn has done far more than Etienne at this point. As he should, as he's like 5 years older with far more training... Perhaps that should have been taken into consideration when drafting

I hope they take Poblah. Wouldn't be surprised. Also wouldn't be surprised to see him succeed in a new environment. Unfortunately our inept coaching staff seems to have sucked any talent that existed right out of him.

PBS: League of Denial: The NFL's Concussion Crisis
Atomic replied to Jpan85's topic in General Discussion
Who cares? Playing football is a choice. People die in car accidents every day, should we limit cars to 20 km/h? No, because that's ridiculous. The knowledge is out there now, people should know the risks that come with football. If you don't want to take the risks, don't play the game. End of story. -
Doubt we lose an OL in the expansion draft. Swiston, Pencer, and Neufeld will probably all be here next season, with Neufeld having the inside track on the starting RT job.
-
The problem is that he shouldn't be saying any of this. What kind of coach makes these kinds of excuses? Even if it's true, it is unprofessional and it does have an effect on the team as well. Can you imagine Marc Trestman or Corey Chamblin making the excuse that they didn't have enough talent to work with? No chance, because they are smart and understand that the responsibility ultimately falls on them. Burke is passing the buck to the organization, the GM, and the players, but never has a damn thing to say about what he did wrong himself.
-
Almost every position is represented on our practice roster, including a DB, WR, RB, and a couple LB's. There are only so many spots to go around. Also, I disagree that we have a problem at DT, in fact I'd say we're the strongest in the league at that spot, or close to it.
-
Could easily make the argument that Foster has flatlined and Etienne is the one with upside... but I'd rather run headfirst into a wall than attempt to argue with you so we'll just leave it at that.

In fairness to Joe Mack, he did trade a broken Steven Jyles for a draft pick that turned into Jade Etienne... a young Canadian receiver Jyles was coming off a career season and actually had value at the time. I remember quite a few people being upset we traded him, and then the Argos managed to parlay Jyles into Ray. He also had a devastating shoulder injury and didn't play for the first half of the next season. Anyone wanting him was taking a huge risk (as demonstrated by his poor play after returning) and Mack got a first round pick for him.

Get ready for all the boosters to tell us why this is such an unrealistic goal...
-
I can't tell if some of these comments are jokes. I think a quick lesson on the difference between trades in football and hockey would be helpful for Bomber fans. Again. Yeah you're right, in the two days between last night and the trade deadline, Brendan Taman would have decided that he doesn't want a top 2 DE and a second round pick for a guy he wasn't even using. That totally would have happened. Or maybe another team was holding out and would have come up with a better offer in that time. Too bad Walters blew it at the first sign of getting ANYTHING at all for Hall. Looks like Walters is more concerned with impressing the local media than anything else.
-
Really hoping we turf Burke and Walters as soon as the season is over. Enough of this rookie bullshit, get us someone who knows what they're doing. This is getting embarrassing.
-
Walters really showed his inexperience with this one. What's the rush? Still another two days to make a deal.
-
He's miles beyond anything Hargreaves ever did, but yeah... still not good that he is easily a top 5 Canadian for us right now.
-
Some doctor you are!
-
Saskatchewan got the best of us on this one, no question. This time next year everyone is going to be complaining about what a turnstile Neufeld is.

Let's just hire John Murphy and be done with it
