  1. No, you're not crazy for thinking that. I don't think anyone puts out mock drafts worse than Ferguson's. In the past, he's had versions that did not end up with a single correct pick. It gets people talking though so I guess that's the point.
  2. Once they hit 300k is when they lost their 2nd pick. Had they been 100-300k over, it would have cost them the first round pick only. Anything under 100k is a dollar for dollar fine.
  3. Agreed but they've been rewarding mediocrity through the draft for a few years now. This is just a step from the extra territorial draft picks they've been handing out.
  4. Yep, Bombers left him on the PR to end the year so he clearly wasn't a top priority for them.
  5. Bombers were one of the 4 CFL teams to be on hand to check out Ali Saad. Canadian DL Ali Saad tests for 25 NFL teams, four CFL teams at Bowling Green pro day - 3DownNation
  6. Sliding in the draft and sliding in the rankings are 2 different things though & he slid in both. If there was legit NFL interest, his ranking would have gone up, not down. There were a couple knocks on him (weight and foot speed) but nothing that couldn't be improved on over time. It was also a deep draft after a bunch of players deferred from 2023 - he probably would have gone higher in other years. Whatever the reason, I'm glad he fell far enough for us to grab him!
  7. He was fairly highly regarded. The CFL had him as their #2 ranked player in the fall before he started to slide (#6 in the winter & # 12 in the spring). We got him at 17 so a bit of a steal when you figure a few of the guys rated higher would be getting NFL looks. FWIW, Ferguson had him going 3rd in his final mock draft while Hodge had him going 4th in his first mock (16th in his 2nd).
  8. This. Sideshow Ed is now claiming he meant there's no Michael Jordan level superstars. That's true but there are very few people in any sport that have achieved that level of fame - that's beyond a superstar to me and is more like a cultural icon. The CFL absolutely has it's own superstars, even if they aren't known world wide.
  9. Canadian DE Isaiah Bagnah posts pedestrian numbers at Big 12 Pro Day - 3DownNation Less NFL interest is great for CFL teams but probably not so great for the player. Bagnah was ranked 4th in the latest rankings and is the highest rated player scheduled to be participating at the national combine.
  10. It was listed on the CFL transactions page a while ago (March 7th) but the club only announced it officially yesterday. Winnipeg Blue Bombers add defensive back - Winnipeg Blue Bombers
  11. Probably has a pretty decent scarf collection too!
  12. He's highly impactful on the number of posts on MBB but on the field...
  13. Tbf, there haven't really been a ton of Bisons go at the top of the draft. Demski is the only one I can think of that we passed on (took Chungh at #2 that year). Maybe Zach Williams but he was the last pick of the 3rd round so not a late pick but not a super early one either. There are 5 Bisons currently playing in the league (not including guys like Gassama who have yet to crack a roster) and we now have 3 of them so we do like having them here.
  14. That's why I said startling line-up. Thomas getting cut is too much to ask for! 😂
