Booch replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Dinwiddie making hay there...Ott will be legit thbs yr and their Bacjup QB....Not sure who they have behind old man river there....but i if he goes down now...Yikes Interesting that they cannot retain all key players after a Grey Cup yr, and some at discount like we wer able to several post Grey Cup yrs in a row...tho we played that game a lil too long....but still...Guess the culture and wanna to run thru walls for Mace aint what its all made out to be...plus...It's always gonna be ....Regina -

Never thought of that too...could actually use that this yr and Stan could be a good candidate...tho I fully expect him as a starter Ceresna gonna wanna establish himself again and I expect he will...not concerned with a meniscus injury sustained in first half of last yr Slay the draft now...we cooking And its gonna be Hella tough for a newbie to Crack the secondary...but I like that problem Solid...and we will have Woodbey and Griffin all over the field just making plays -

So in one off season...we effectively have: Pooched the worst excuse of an O.C in likely decades Dropped our 2 worst starters and added best available DT and fack even John Bonk would been better than Kolo so whoever grabs it in camp is better and our oline is better...as we added the best tackle in league Signed all our must haves and lost nobody who will be missed Grabbed the best Cdn WR available (see ya Corcoran) and one of the 3 top WR...and likely the best one to suit our system...with an OC familiar with him Grabbed a top DB who is in his prime and is a vet and knows the league inside and out Can't argue with what Walters has done....Osh can't fuxkk this up now...can he? And if he does...apple and roadway time cause all the excuses and good will has all but evaporated Lawson gonna thrive learning from Jake...and not Thomas haha Those 2 inside...holy havoc I can see us going after Bissett or Kurly Wurly and if we we do..one of them..Demski..Neild...CLercius...Cobb...more than enough depth to make 3 Canadian WR work -

Next yr yeah...I don't see it this yr...do u really expect the GOAT to be shuffled...even more so...U think Broxton expects it...doubt it.. If best oline config is 3 imports...then u do it..plain and simple ...and i said i expect Randolph at guard already Kramdi isnt our best SAM option even though we pay him as best in league Any team would kill and pay handsomely for a Canadian kicker to do all 3 and free up a DA spot Sorry to piss on your kraut but thats just facts Id say top 2 in league last yr... I forgot about vpool...and agree If ratio allowed Randolph be damn good 6th...as dude was a tight end and certainly he athletic enough to be used as that in jumbo and have to be respected -

Meniscus is piddly...in season surgery to fix u miss maybe 4..to 6 weeks..crescent tear..they snip it out..and thats that...speaking from experience. Id say stan stays...broxton shifts...Randolph goes inside or is the 6th -

Sadly...this the stuff we shoulda been doing last yr...smh Visions of Ceresna and Lawson consuming the attention of the entire enterior oline...and a rb kept in for pass protection...and having athletic ends attacking 1 on 1...or cutting inside with a dude like Griffin or Woodbey flying off the edge...delicious -

Booch replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I not sure Ford has the accuracy...or a proper platform/mechanics to be an actual passer other than the off script and sandlot type stuff. As a legit dual threat qb...don't see it...but as a change of pace guy...or a 2nd QB on the field with the right plays drawn up...could be valuable, but any notion he can be a legit starter....dont see it...hopefully he does too and accepts a new kinda role for himself -

I'm thinking thats a pretty positive given..He wants to win now also..much better chance here If KW lands this big tuna id say our off season was a resounding success..even if thats all we do -

Broxton and Stan...Randolph at guard..with Eli centering...Wallace to take over Eli role and grow...whats not to like there...BO i sure is salivating at that prospect -

I think we got the best all around use guy..and one ZC likely meshes with the best We have 2 legit intruiging talents we need to actually develop and grow with their ups and downs.. Wilson is already about to I bet become a top 3 in the league...only do many balls to go around...the fact we have a real o.c this yr is prob the biggest get...a real one last yr could have got way more outta or offence but we got saddled with an Osh pick and a right dud -

As a player...he would have been gone off any other roster prob 3..4 yrs ago...at best end roster guy standing around all game in case the other DT's went out...would never had reps at end like here over actual ends either...his lifeline was Osh I'm sure hes a swell guy..but that doesn't constitute playing time.. and sure he worked hard and was a good teammate.. who here didnt or wasnt? Again...not a reason for a 4 yr free ride...the ire he got was justified as he basically sucked for yrs..and i guess osh is to blame partly for that as he enabled it We've seen a lot of Osh's picks too...player and coach...and some were pathetic and unjustified too...proof is in the puddin that Osh makes a lot of bad picks But like I said earlier...won't make or break us...just a dumb mercy hire really Who got the least amount of reps then..when he was actually somewhat adequate for spelling guys off? That why was solid...yrs later and half the adequate player he was...he got lions share...plus reps at end over actual ends...do explain the science of that -

I have a hard time seeing that as earned tho either..and is a kick to the corn flakes to actual coaches working and putting in the time at varying levels And I not a grumpy senior lol...but coach..train and see what coaches do...could care less how a middling dt acted during his career...irrelevant... I do have a mean streak tho 😁 Nah...he can still play at top level...its durability and stagnating depth behind him Its Kramdi who def isnt best option for SAM...is not needed for ratio and is gonna be our second highest paid defender likely -

I was gonna say...grab him and convert him into an offensive do whatever tool....motion pre snap....split out back with BO....cause we all know with ball in hand...what he can do...and being a National....what a bonus....I'd have him taking kicks too to see if he has the chops for that -

That's key...White and Demski both know where to go...where to sit down...where and when to break off routes...Things that ZC thrives with and had basically none of that last yr...and it was dwindling in 2024 as well...especially when it was easy to blanket out Demski...and he still tried to force it...hence the INT's....Be a good litm=us test in camp and early into season as to what ZC shows up...He always thrives with veteran groups who still have skill.....Demsko and White both do...Wilson is coming into his own and already has ZC trust and some goodmojo yup...a guy to really push Wallace and or bump him into the ELI role...Randolph is gonna be one the best RT in league...is already close...I not too concerned with Bryant and Neuf either...older olineman are fine as long as not dealing with issues like Elwonibi was late in his last 2 yrs Also a crisp fast running offence with guys at WR where ZC doesnt have to think or try and find but know and trust that they will be where they supposed to will make a huge difference too...especially with a healthy BO tenderizing the meat all game yeah...he has the tools and the skill set to really be a difference maker here...I hope we give him every opp to secure that job...even if it means growing pains a bit the first few games...and he wont need to be the focus early on in the offence....but a complimentry piece that teams will have to pay attention to -

For what our dline coach has to do really I guess he will be fine...With vets like Lawson..WJ and hopefully a Ceresna they dont need Thomas' tutelage..as there is nothing he could offer them...and any young guy can get things passed on by them too The x and o part will come from Younger anyway...and some from Stanley...Thomas will add nothing there...it was essentially a mercy hire that won't make or break our season...was still dumb tho...and a slap in face of any up an coming coach in the CIS ranks or NCAA who has been putting in the work -

Wilson is very underrated..for now...he is actually quite fast and he is greasy as hell out there after the catch...and for a slight guy can be physical too Like I said in other post..i think Banks is that guy in waiting...and Condell will definitely know how to use a guy like that...and with main 3 guys Banks won't have to do too much right outta the gate and can evolve as yr goes on... A real center will be light yrs better and be a total game changer -

I truly think that Banks can be that guy for us and give way more than Wheatfall did...dude could be a big mismatch for dbs -

And we gonna get White in at 225k which is good value for a guy still in top tier of WR in league...I think walters is gonna have the ability to toss some sheckles around in FA More I look at it I hope we get proactive and toss some at Cersesna sooner than later -

I'm more concerned based on history that osh won't play backups or rotational guys nearly enough..so no development or progression let alone trust or know what they can do...and play clearly injured guys...or his favs ...same ol same ol Hope I wrong...but -

part of reason why he landed with us....by time they rescinded and allowed him to be able to play....most teams were already set...so to speak...Legit talent that we lucky to have scooped Was no big issue -
