Who has all the cast offs now?...scrap heapin!!

Yeah but Nik on Twitter said he's a stud!! Dudes over hyped. Had a couple solid games and everyone was on his ****. He's a Special teamer on the bombers at most. Go play for regina

No

That's a weird thing to say....but regardless. If u spend time bitching and complaining about what others have, you're taking time away from improving yourself. PR players have no one to blame but themselves for being PR players. Work harder or go home.

If I were a practice roster player. I'd be working harder.

Scared of injuries is the first level of losing.

And can contribute in Special teams, unlike many other QBs. Bennett will be a Bomber in 2019

Its rookie camp. Optional for vets. No deal = no money = no play.

As for the VET american thing. I think rather then being an incentive for teams to keep them at all costs, it's more about getting the players to choose their team. Rather then explore FA/ 1 year contracts etc. This past year the FA movement wasn't great. Sure it drew some excitement and was unique. But it was slated to become the norm. That's not good from a league perspective.

Yeah my thinking too. He showed too much promise to be cut at this time of the year.

Reality is you can go 4-0 and still miss the playoffs. Or you can go 0-4 and make them. The point I was making, is games 1 through 4 (I'd argue even up to 7 or 8 ) dont make or break seasons. BC winning or losing game 1 will not be a large factor in how the season turns out for either team.

Meh, the first 4 games of the season are basically pre season. CFL is such a long road....1st game mean absolutely nothing in the grand scheme.

Yup, of course Walters is going to speak that way about Jones. He basically has too. Saying that, I do remember hearing on this forum as well as from friends who went to camp that Jones seemed to have taken another step and was looking very good on D. Does he regain that form? That's another question all together. Reason for optimism forsure, but he still has lots to prove.

Meh, decent signing for them. Not sure it makes them better. Doesnt make them worse...but not convinced it makes them better either.

That's a straight up **** move by Jones....even more so then the other Jones.

AC and Burris are not in the same category. AC and then Ray. Not by much in my opinion but Burris isn't even in the conversation.

Edwards needs to stay in his damn lane. You don't go running your mouth about a negotiation when you're right in the middle of it. End of story. He can take his damn feelings and shove it. As a fan of the CFL and someone who isn't totally naive when it comes to professional negotiations Edwards is 100% wrong, and I'm glad both the CFL and CFLPA are being PROFESSIONAL (Edwards please look this word up) about the process.

Adams and Matthew's on the outside will add a lot to this Offence.

Fuuuuuuck yes!!!!

Don't think Ray is tough enough to survive any other era of football. He didn't ever take any beatings the way QB's did back then.

Dickenson has always had at least two of these - All star QB, All Star RB, All Star WR, Multiple All stars on Oline, and dominate Defense. Now outside of the D, is it Dickenson making the all stars, or the all stars making Dickenson?

damn it. Riders signed Soloman...will definitely make that D better.

During his 1st year, I remember thinking...yeah we've seen players have decent starts before, we'll see what he does after teams have film....then it was "his 1st year was likely a fluke, don't expect him to keep that up." year after year he always come up. Solid player..great career.

I know what you are trying to say....I just don't think that is a big part of the equation when they are looking at players to draft. If a guy is good enough to start on D in the CFL and is available/fits a need etc the Bombers have shown they will draft them. As it turns out right now, it's a lot easy to find pro level Offensive players in the CFL draft.

How serious is his injury? I've heard he's stable...that can mean many things.
