Mike Posted November 15, 2016 Report Posted November 15, 2016 Unofficial list of Blue Bomber FA that was shared this morning did not include Sukh Chungh (or ANY of our OL, which is incredible) Adams, Bass, Burnett, Briggs, Davis, Glenn, Denmark, Hurl, Gurley, McDuffie, Nichols, Rempel, Kohlert, Cummings No Chungh That would be awesome if we didn't have to worry about that. Noeller, Blueandgold, Tracker and 4 others 7

Would be nice to see Adams, Bass, Burnett, Denmark, Nichols, Rempel and Cummings back. Depending on what else they do at QB, we could do a lot worse than Glenn as a backup if Nichols is the starter next year. Tracker 1
Taynted_Fayth Posted November 15, 2016 Report Posted November 15, 2016 I think bass, adams, denmark, nichols and cummings should be priority. I think JFG has unseated Kohlert for good now Bigblue204 1

M.O.A.B. Posted November 15, 2016 Report Posted November 15, 2016 I believe, Cummings will try the NFL this off-season reason why he only signed for 1 year.
M.O.A.B. Posted November 15, 2016 Report Posted November 15, 2016 (edited) Good to know that Chungh is not a pending FA. Hoping its official. Adding another Natl starter on OL and possibly starting 3 Natl on DL plus Harris and Loffler thats make 8 Natl starters. We might not need a Natl receiver and we can go 5 Intl there. OL - Goossen Chungh Couture Draft Pick and/or FA OL DL - Westerman Shologan Thomas Corney Tennant Butcher Mulumba Draft Pick and/or FA DL RB - Harris S - Loffler Edited November 15, 2016 by M.O.A.B.
17to85 Posted November 15, 2016 Report Posted November 15, 2016 if we could get all the OL back man oh man, finally built a good one, excited to see how it continues on next year. BigBlueFanatic, SPuDS, kelownabomberfan and 3 others 6

Goalie Posted November 15, 2016 Report Posted November 15, 2016 (edited) Why not stay with Bryant Chungh Goossen Bond Hardrick I mean they were pretty Damn good and we have the depth elsewhere to start 5 other Canadians. Edited November 15, 2016 by Goalie SPuDS and Bigblue204 2

Yup, unless we can get someone who is much better than those three americans. I honestly see no reason to change it up. They have come together as a group and that goes a long long way to playing like a championship line.
Fatty Liver Posted November 15, 2016 Report Posted November 15, 2016 It seems pretty easy to keep Import O-line content and away from FA, pay them decently and feed them well and they'll hang around for a long time.

I was just thinking the same thing... the 5th guy isn't going to get much action anyways... if you can put a serviceable Canadian in that spot that's a ratio win... ideally we can draft one better than what we have but I think I could live with JFG for a year while we develop our DP...

Saidin Posted November 15, 2016 Report Posted November 15, 2016 Any confirmation on this, I don't want to learn that this was a mistake...
Brandon Posted November 15, 2016 Report Posted November 15, 2016 I thought the press was reporting that Chungh was a free agent earlier this season? wbbfan 1

Yep, he's going to test the NFL waters but I think I read the Bombers have another signed contract ready to be filed, should he not land a job down south. Jimmy Pop 1
Tracker Posted November 15, 2016 Report Posted November 15, 2016 The good news is that Couture looked very promising in his limited time. It would still sukh to lose Chungh but we are not without a decent option. I do like Chungh's take-no-prisoners attitude. Bigblue204 1

Mr Dee Posted November 15, 2016 Report Posted November 15, 2016 Penton on Chungh - @BlueBomberTalk @JoshSmith_82 Turns out he signed the usual three year rookie deal. The rest of the 'unofficial' free agent list: WR Darvin Adams - yes please LB Khalil Bass - love Bass, but is it him, or the scheming? we have to do better at MLB LB Jesse Briggs* - yes LB Tony Burnett - yes DT Euclid Cummings - yes, although I know he wants to try down south. QB Dominique Davis - ??? SB Clarence Denmark - gets an invite to TC QB Kevin Glenn - yes WR Tori Gurley - gets an invite to TC LB Sam Hurl* - yes WR Rory Kohlert* - TC KR Quincy McDuffie - yes QB Matt Nichols - yes LS Chad Rempel* yes LB Teague Sherman - yes * Canadian Floaters... Doug Brown No winnipeg team has had as few giveaways as this offence... Farman Lallji Wally Buono tells me he will definitely be back next year as Head coach and GM of #BCLions. @CFLonTSN -the league-imposed moratorium on major announcements begins this Thursday. Interesting, because O'Shea addresses the media on Wednesday, and Walters addresses the media on Friday - the day after the moratorium....So, does that mean no announcement? Glenn on Nichols "He's a very studious guy of the game," Glenn said after a team practice. "Also, he has the tools and the ability to lead a team. His demeanour, his attitude, he's not just a guy that talks about it. He's a doer, too." Adams on Nichols "You have to be inside the huddle just to know," Adams said. "You can tell by the look in his eyes that he means business. "You know that he wants to win and has that competitive spirit as a winner. It feels good to play for a guy like that." ??There were 22 games decided by a margin of 0-4 points in the CFL this year. And then the semi finals - 2 more. Donnovan Bennett Lost in all the talk of how dangerous Calgary is offensively is how good their west rivals in BC were racking up yards in 2016. Their win over Saskatchewan marked their fifth game of 40-plus points this season. Jones, in his post-season meeting with the media, said the Riders believe — contrary to Durant’s claim — that their offer is fair and they want Durant as their quarterback next season. After saying he doesn’t want these negotiations to look like Durant-versus-Jones, the Riders’ boss incredulously stated one of his team’s other four quarterbacks could win games for the team in 2017, but also hinted there are others who could join the Riders. Judy Owen - the Canadian Press Jones uses the phrase "moderately successful" when describing Durant during an interview about his contract. "I'm told he's (Marc Trestman) not too interested in coming back to the #CFL." - @JDunk12 #AlsMTL via @rodpedersen Tracker and Fatty Liver 2
Noeller Posted November 15, 2016 Report Posted November 15, 2016 Lol @ Jones with the brass ones calling out Durant as "moderately successful"....c'mon....I have never been a Durant fan, but seriously....you're going to intentionally antagonize the one decent QB you've got???

Goalie Posted November 15, 2016 Report Posted November 15, 2016 Thought when Gurley signed it was mentioned that he had an out if he had an nfl opportunity but if not... he's got a year left.

Mike Posted November 15, 2016 Author Report Posted November 15, 2016 2 minutes ago, BomberBall said: Yes, I'm pretty sure you're right. But *technically* that contract isn't filed, so *technically* he's a free agent.
