2026 Bombers Season
he's prob a better option than any import not named Wilson or White in all honesty lol I like the add...as well as the Condell add as it seems we have learned from past and have moved on from just internally promoting even when not warranted...so kudo's to this decision yeah...agreed Mayala should be on speed dial immediately as the season hasnt even started and Demski is already questionable...guy is proven and a cfl vet so no learning curve If Eli isn't starting then its from injury...He didnt even take what...5 snaps at center did he? Elsbury was decent but not great. And if you are building your best roster you need to look at ripple effect of ratio adjusting. Elsbury eats up a import spot swaying us to this stupid start 3 Canadian receivers and we don't have the horses for that, nor the depth and to do such a move that import has to be lights out good....it also takes away the ability to add that extra import defender...say a legit DT or another tweener gy who can play inside and out...so you have a avergae center...a weaker wr core....and a leaner defence Turn that around...Start ELi who will be no worse than the pylon we had last yr....and likely after a few games settled in as one the better centers...a better wr group with 3 imports and possibly a new guy in that group that lights it up, and a deeper defense as you can add another difference maker there....And if Eli is knicked let Vibert at it, and didnt we draft this Daniels cause he was this shitkicker where we could forego using an OL in TE sets?....or so we were told One dumb move can make the offence, and the defence weaker when you look at the whole makeup of things...who wants to wager cash on if we make a smart...or dumb decision?...lol

2026 Bombers Season
last yr shouldnt even factor into anything for this yr...the whole offence in general was disjointed and sad...There was lotsa vanishing Not being targeted or a QB not having time to target a slower developing route cant be blamed on the receiver...and for a neglected receiver on a bad offence 650 some odd yards and 4 scores over 16 games isnt really vanishing.....350ish yards less than Demski who is considered elite, with less targets and being further from the QB and not a focal point of the offence really isnt that much of a gap for a 3rd/4th option at best....or does it say Demski isnt as elite as we tend to like to believe...I believe he is elite, when used right, and not subjected to heavy runs into the belly of the beast like we do, and how we continually knick him up, but not bringing a guy back after really 1 yr of developing with no real answer to replace him is pretty poor management...Bring him back along with new recruits and if he shows no more progress its an easy cut then His blocking...especially in pass protection was not good, and sure he not gonna get 5 passes a game...thankfully. And not sure what he was asked to do that we didnt have to trade up and get a limited use guy for, where we already had people on roster who could do exactly what he did in pre-season is my point. And what he did do wasnt really anything that screamed...we gotta keep this gy around whatever way we can...Maybe they were playing sillybuggers and arent releasing the kraken until games matter....but what I saw in camp didnt really indicate some secret weapon to take the league by surprise...guess we will see

he is prob one of the worst in the league at his position in coverage....bar none. He'd be good in a retro 3-4 front as one the interior LB's staying in the box.... Like I said...it's collective....who do we have the last few yrs besides a few aging stars who are super impactful. Fox was more than solid inside actually...and doing nothing with an opportunity in one place, but solid and contributing in another maybe comes down to better coaching I dont look for wins in pre-season as its irrelevant....look for skill/potential and ability, and versatility/athleticism...the other parts will fall into place if you are well coached I bet outside of White/Pokey who are gonna see hella lot of volume and forced throws , that Wheatfall will put up better numbers than any other import we play....as he will likely be properly used We have a history here of not giving anyone a legit chance/opportunity until literally forced to with no other choice...and even then we repeatedly played guys who should never have been on the field. BC reciever sure...rookie...against rookies...still tho made the plays...a scrub would have dropped ball...or never even got to the right spot to make said play...maybe the wide open score he recognized something and went to the vacated area?...coulda...shoulda if he saw it....What did Daniels do to secure a spot? Better yet...what did we do for him to actually show something...nothing....and thats not his fault Feel sorry for a guy like Rocker too....got no use...no involvement in anything...we know what peterson can do...we saw it last yr...why even waste a roster spot in TC on a guy like Rocker?...what a waste of his time.

PS Game #2
yeah...Our backups and potential upside guys were actually faring very well vs BC's offensive starters...and were up 10-3 Our scrubs and draft picks were hosed by BC's scrubs and draftee's.... Ball is ball regardless of who it is against....Heck a lot of our "starters" didnt play at all in pre-season really, so who knows how they would have fared vs scrubs and TCF...But all made the club from the tub. Some say Elsbury is the answer at center but he didnt overall impress and as an Import that would make you have to switch your ratio, and likely play inadequate Canadian receivers, and even worse as their backup...That import center has to be exceptional at worst...Did Eli even polay any center in Pre-season to play himself outta the starting lineup? Also...Come the real game time Elsbury will be seeing legit schemes and likely stuff he has never faced, not the vanilla he saw in pre-season...is he gonna be able to make the proper calls?...or is he gonna flub a bunch of them and risk ZC getting eviscerated in the process??...

2026 Bombers Season
currently Ham has Augustine..Wheatfall...Fox...Hubert...Myron Mitchell of all people on their roster...all guys we cut adrift and rally have not adequately replaced another interior DT and WR...As one example also had Garbutt but he got hurt...still isnt 100 percent an I think out of football at moment. So teams find value and use in our cast offs....and ironically Ham had a better record than us, so the excuse some use that this team..or that team is garbage doesnt hold weight. Not saying all are world beaters, but all were solid and its a collective effort in the end as well.. I like a lot of what we kept.. I said if you look back I think they will keep, or should keep Mazzccua as there something there..As well as Fletcher who is multi versatile and Reese who has best get off, and were smart keeps....Sure we have a log jam of LB's....but we also have 2 long in tooth and only really need one, so keeping another younger one to develop would been the smart choice. Singer was best of a bad group of WR recruits and serves multiple roles so again a smart choice but if this plan of starting 3 Canadians is real then keeping him...Womack...and Fredrickson around but seems redundant and a waste of PR space when there zero chance to get on roster, while we have really only 3 canadians worthy of being actual starters....keep one import and load your PR with defensive guys with serious upside with the other 2 spots

yeah...we have an aging core...we let a lot of young promise walk tho...and we need to change that. I not saying dump all yhour vets, but many canbe replaced by younger guys with upside and more skill, and not hurt you in the least outside of Clercius/Demski/Neild he is the best backup Canadian as he can play inside...outside...return...run jet sweep we go 3 national recievers...we have the worst group in league again...especially if one of Demski or Neild goes down...Clercius is already hurt, and there no guarantee Demski goes injury free...heck he didnt even make it outta camp with zero contact. Add to that the fact we know damn well Osh will play a hampered/injured Demski who will offer minimal results as well...we\'ve seen it before so not a make believe story to trash Osh....

2026 Bombers Season
well...they kind of are. Nothing in "practice" can really separate anyone from one another. Game reps vs real bullets and schemes and tendencies you haven't seen for weeks over and over show a lot....Just look at Clintons pick six...realized what Sask was doing, from watching and Ipad and adjusted his drop to basically bait that int...Jones cant drop in the right area to save his life...and if he did and made that pick...he wouldnt have hit paydirt. Rookies and scrubs playing against other teams similar players is irrelevant...If you are a ball and can...and do make plays...you will also surrounded by the returning vets when the real games come...especially on defense in the CFL....Offense is a bit different and the nuances...waggle...accounting for the extra defender take time...Defense for most part you can step right on, save for maybe halfback...This fallacy you need to have 1..2 yrs of seasoning is crap...if you can play...you can play

Many holes in his game....He is a good depth/rotational piece but he is not a top full time MLB in the league We really needed to keep only one of Jones and Wilson and have them as the DA and or Nationalized Canadian, and allow Woodbey/Ayers and a new import rookie the opportunity, along with give Smith and Shay as much work as possible if not one the actual starting spots

2026 Bombers Season
We definitely upgraded a couple positions...but looking at what we kept..and PR'd..our depth i bet gonna be even worse than last yr..and heavily relying on old guard to stay healthy. And I didnt think it was possible but our receiving group..especially if we stupidly go 3 Canadian will be worse than last yr...especially if white or Pokey go down...plus I have zero faith Demski will go unknicked..

2026 Bombers Season
And passed on the kid in bc who schooled us What did Daniel's do..really to make the team other than being a pick we traded up to get? Didnt catch a ball..the couple routes he went out on he looked awkward and lost...his pass protection was awful...and this shitkicking blocking Walters yammerned on about..I didnt see it in the 2 games or 4 practices I went to For that matter what did Kyrie and Jones do to earn the spot other than be vet holdovers? Yet here they are gonna be starting...Smith..Woodbey..Ayers and Griffin tho showed they are worthy and should take the main reps...Shay as well and really Clinton out played them all and "hustled" "tried" hard too...its Corcoran's traits Osh raves about and gets him playtime..why doesn't it work for a player possibly pushing a vet out? Dumping a Jones or Wilson ...or DA'n one wouldn't hurt us in the least...but..osh be oshin just like I be Boochin...some u all think just cause he the HC he is never wrong and not flawed. Yes. See my previous comment

2026 CFL Around The League (Not Bombers Specific)
As we prob dress 4 dl and have Ayers listed as a DE..and Mills grinds us into Salisbury steak by 4th quarter

2026 Bombers Season
We all have opinions...yours tho are out to sea in a big way...I bet come game 1 we will have a handicapped depth chart...and you can think what u want...and guys will have input but end of day its a HC final say. And hall has tons of experience and sway and yeah osh didnt have plums...or acumen to disrespect or over rule Hall..big difference.

Easy to be "wrong" on an Osh controlled team...he will bypass talent for other odd reasons..and thats fact Case in point..Clinton out performed all import lbs in various areas..and is untapped potential..and we went total status quo...on a failing team of last few yrs..explain As for Bailey.. he on roster even as last guy will offer a lot more than whatever Canadian osh will put on...and thats a fact too...but not shocking in the least
