  1. Not saying he’s not immune to criticism, but we’ve ran the West for the past 5 seasons, we’ve been one of the top three teams for nearly a decade. Trust me it’s going to be a sad day when Walters leaves the Bombers.
  2. Good pedigree. Played for Auburn and made SEC all freshman team. A little small at 5’8 but stuck around the NFL for a few seasons. Might be a good fit up here if he comes motivated.
  3. Ellingson was great! Early on with the loss of Lawler he really stepped up, sometimes you can’t avoid injuries. He was on pace for nearly 1400 yards that season, and when he went out Schoen actually stepped in and became a star so I think it worked out great. also the other names being floated around were fine in Winnipeg, Dressler was a 1000 yard guy who helped bring stability after that terrible 2015 season, and Moore was a good not great receiver on a bad team. The only one who truly didn’t workout that was mentioned was bringing in an old Bowman after a slew of injuries. I don’t think anyone expected him to be prime Edmonton Bowman at that point.
  4. True but 1800 yards in two seasons isn’t all pro numbers, there’s a way to communicate things for sure but Lewis isn’t as good as he thinks he is.
  5. I’m not as down on our team as many people are either. Remember there were games where we were without Schoen, Lawler, Demski, Wheatfall, and Woli on offense. Losing Lawler hurts but bringing White Jr, Sterns, and Cobb and getting a healthy Schoen and another year of development from Clericus I think puts us in a decent spot not to mention maybe getting creative and including a guy like Logan into the offense. On D getting a healthy Lawson, and Parker back is also important not to mention, jones, and Vaughters. There’s going to be a lot of opportunity for guys to step up, also looking forward to seeing what’s in store for Gabe Wallace who’s an absolute monster.
  6. Seems like some good players and pedigrees. I’m going to trust Walters plan, got to trust the scouting. The free agency champions almost every year end up being at the bottom of the standings, not to say you can’t improve your team in FA but I think there’s going to be a lot of opportunity for guys to step up.
  7. I’m kind of excited about guys like Sterns and Logan. I thought Logan was the Stamps most electrifying player, and Sterns put up good numbers when he was in the line up. We had a washed up Lucky trying to play that role last season. Kind of excited what we can do with those two guys. It’s going to be a bigger opportunity for touches after losing Lawler so someone has the chance to step up.
  8. Yeah I like Dukes, I think he has potential. He’s only 26 years old, at the start of the season some people were considering him maybe the next great young QB, I thought in his first career start in 2023 against us he was great. This season was a little more of a mixed bag but really his numbers were not much different then Chad Kelly’s, at the very least he’s a mobile QB who you can trust to put a drive together if you need him, at best I think he can be a potential starter in the league.
  9. Well here’s hoping our new OC using Streveler as a QB instead of as a glorified RB. Our O actually got better once Streveler got injured and it was to no fault of his own, defenses truly just knew actually what was coming every single time the ball was in Strevelers hand.
  10. Yeah he’s not coming back after the Bombers picked up three free agent receivers this off season lol
  11. More bush league stuff from the CFL
  12. Yeah it might look slightly bad now because we’re used to success but remember the days when our best Canadian receiver was guys like Jamie Stoddard? Remember when we had American running backs like Nic Grigsby, and quarterbacks like Max Hall? Have premium Canadian players and a premium quarterback take up salary, are all three in a vacuum worth what they make? Well that’s debatable but to have a 1000 yard Canadian receiver, the most outstanding player in the league and Canadian at running back, and Zach who’s been one of the best for a long time I think it’s easy to remember where we came from.
  13. Pretty good player. Now you got Schoen, Demski, Mitchell, White Jr, Clercuis, and maybe Wilson at some point and hope that someone from camp impresses and it’s a pretty solid receiving core. There’s going to be lots of opportunity for someone to step up and be that second target for Zach.
  14. Yeah it’s definitely not better unless you think another year for some of the young players and the continuity is a plus rather than subtraction. But also we all know Dobson’s award was a farce. Not deserved at all but still a hole that needs to be filled.
