They do that. However, only about 10% of salaries have media reports as to the value and an even lower amount are accurate. The rest they just allow fans to guess at, which is ok, if you don't call it sourced. The big problem I have with CapGeek isn't their numbers being out to lunch on 90% of the league, it's the fact that they try to back it up by saying it's sourced, when for the most part it's guys like you and me emailing them and throwing darts at a board with a biindfold on.

Are you suggesting that Wally Buono uses CFL CapGeek to keep track of other teams' spending. LMAO I think that he was suggesting that every time he gets together with Wally for coffee, that they go over the capgeek numbers and discuss them in depth. Jeebus, I've heard some whoppers on here in my time, but using Wally Buono as a source to backup the credibility of a KNOWN source of false information takes the cake. An all time low.

MB sucks...but it's hard to blame him for having to gameplan around Brohm as his starter. There isn't a coordinator in the CFL past or present that was going to be able to do anything of value with him,

Well that certainly narrows the pool down somewhat. I don't think Henoc will get more than a quick look see in his tryout, but you never know. My biggest issue with re-signing Henoc is whether we are getting the same player we had or not. Admittedly, this is a chance I am willing to take.

Not usually a big fan of a HC wearing coordinator hats, but in this case it had to be done. IF it's true.

Deflated balls...give it up. No one believes for 1 second that you have spoken to Wally about anything. Do you think we all just fell off the turnip truck. The posters here know their stuff. You would do well not to defend a garbage site by trying to back it up with lies.

I can positively confirm that capgeek cfl is garbage. How can I positively say this you ask? Because, in protest of the fact that Riderfans and Stamps fans were citing absolutely ridiculous numbers from capgeek, I submitted a list of 40 names to capgeek that were completely fictitious. Capgeek published these salaries as being sourced. Numbers I made up off the top of my head. Anyone can do it. Wanna change someone from 500k ayear to 250k a year...just email capgeek. Heck if I got time tomorrow I will submit a new list that PROVES that the Bombers have a million dollars in cap space remaining and that all other teams are over.

He has been a feature against us, enough times..... He will rumble for his 7 yard average 8-10 times during the game. That will not beat us. I like the 3-4 because it will force Smith to look upfield and take away the short passing game from him. He struggles badly when he is forced to look beyond the flats and short yardage passing. We open ourselves up a bit agains the run in order to eliminate the Riders passing threat. Sounds like a trade off that will favor us.

Why would you think we have no one capable of playing Nose?

Willy is making the same this year as he did last year. His new contract doesn't come into effect until next season. Usually extensions in the CFL come into effect immediately as the remaining contract is ripped up and renegotiated. Willy would be an exception if he's playing out his last contract. He is definitely playing under his new contract.

You're ready to write Marve off after one start? In a thread earlier this week it was noted that Glenn took three years to develop before he showed positive results, same goes for Durant, Reilly and Burris. Basically yes as there are better qbs out there we can bring in than Marve. Burris spent his first year in 1997 on the Stamps PR. In 1998 he saw limited time appearing in his first game. In 1999 he got his first few starts, led the Stamps to 2 victories & looked good before being injured with a torn ACL in August that year & missing the rest of that season. Hank put up much better numbers than Marve his first start. And he showed he had a strong arm, athletic ability & accuracy. Something Marve can't do. What people aren't understanding is that a QB must have the fundamentals to play the game at the pro level. Just because some QBs took years to develop, it wasn't because of their fundamentals. They were working on their understanding of the game and ability to manage it. Durant, Reilly, Burris, Glenn, Calvillo all have one thing in common. A good accurate arm with a quick release. This is why they rose to the top. In pro sports you can't teach a player how to throw. He either knows that by now, or he's gone. Marve struggles with his accuracy, and he is a fundamentally poor thrower of the ball.

Here we go with the "Anthony Calvillo" nugget about how he took years to develop. For every AC there are a hundred QBs that legitimately wash out of this league. Not all can be coddled and brought along for years waiting for them to emerge. The reason AC, and I watched his early career, lasted as long as he did was because his fundamentals were off the charts. He just struggled making his reads early in his career. Completely different story, from Marve, who has many fundamental problems with his game.

No, no you don't. The Bombers wouldn't have the rights to Mulumba or Bilukidi if that were the case. I think this is the 2nd time in the last couple weeks that Kpt Krunch has made this assertion. So I will confirm your post above. CFL TEAMS HOLD THE RIGHTS OF ALL DRAFT PICKS INDEFINITELY THAT DON'T SIGN WITH THEM.

We currently have two of the biggest DTs in the league in Anderson and Collins. Both tip the scales at a hair under 300 lbs. The fact we have this beef is why we are toying with the 3-4. Not sure why there is a misconception that we don't have beef on our DL. Probably because Turner is a little undersized as a DT. Collins and Anderson are as big as they come though.

Marve sucks too.

The only silver lining is that we are going up against the Riders defence that is hopelessly inept vs. the run.

He is expected back.

Marve gives us a semi-chance to win because of his mobility. Sadly, he and Brohm are both hopelessly inadequate passing the ball.

Yea. What is shocking me is that Brohm is still here.

Davis gives us more of a chance to win than Brohm. I can confidently say that even though I've never seen him play. Glenn January at QB gives us a better chance to win than Brohm. In my lifetime of watching football, I have never seen a QB with such accuracy problems as Brohm stick around so long. Even Lefors, maybe the most inaccurate QB of all time in Winnipeg, was more accurate than Brohm.

A lot. Just the terminology alone would make it impossible for him to start this week. Even starting the LDC on anything more than a skeleton playbook will be highly optimistic. He needs reps with the first team offence, and some deep immersion in the playbook. He will not have anywhere close to the full offence at his command within the next 3 weeks. It is laughable to think he could play this weekend unless we go sandlot and reduce our passing playbook to a few plays. There is zero chance he would have half the playbook at his command by this weekend.

He will be a big help right now. In the future, who knows...who cares. Our season is teetering on the abyss. We needed a QB capable of winning a game.

Nichols gives us a chip and a chair again. Doubt his contract is prohibitive. He has never entered the season as a starter.

Please release Brohm immediately and this will be the best QBing news in a while.

Great deal imo.
