Noeller Posted January 18, 2017 Report Posted January 18, 2017 Is Jabar Westerman really that good? I know he's Canadian, but I don't know that he's any better than Jake Thomas...

Noeller Posted January 18, 2017 Report Posted January 18, 2017 I'm admittedly very ignorant on the guy, but I always thought he was the Cauchy of the Westerman bros...

Taynted_Fayth Posted January 20, 2017 Report Posted January 20, 2017 is this all under the assumption we sign Jabar?
nate007 Posted January 20, 2017 Report Posted January 20, 2017 Add in Mulumba down the road and we could start four Canadians on the DL! Is that a pie in the sky, or a flying saucer? Either way, they are about as realistic as the scenario above.
Fatty Liver Posted January 20, 2017 Report Posted January 20, 2017 http://www.cfl.ca/2017/01/19/cfl-cas-top-30-pending-free-agents/ The top 30 free agents according to cfl.ca, it would be nice to retain both Bass and McDuffie and steal away Marquay McDaniel and Shakir Bell.
Brandon Posted January 20, 2017 Report Posted January 20, 2017 Some decent talent out there this year... I wonder if the blue *want* Bass or McDuffie back?

No idea about Bass, but regardless of what Winnipeg wants McDuffie might want to test FA - he's shown he is a legit bust-it return threat some team will sign for that skill alone. Would love to see him in Blue & Gold again. Because as much as Kevin Fogg was excellent as a rookie DB-return man, #14 was more dangerous on returns.

Kickoffs yes...on punts McDuffie was more of a danger to the Bombers and cost a ton of field position with struggles to come up and catch the ball in the air. Think it's hard to find him a real role and spot on the field offensively too. Would rather have an import back so Harris doesn't get exhausted over 18 games. MOBomberFan 1
pigseye Posted January 20, 2017 Report Posted January 20, 2017 McDuffie is 'that guy' who can fill in at receiver or back that every team needs, just have to use him properly. All 3 linebackers, Wild, Bass & Legget are WIL type backers. None can shed blocks to play the middle or are fast enough to pass cover. I'd keep Wild to play WIL and bring in heavy competition at the other 2 spots. Tracker 1

Its a bird, its a plane, its a good NI WR in blue!! 21 minutes ago, Noeller said: Leggett isn't fast enough??? never mind the bollocks. He was easily the best in his position last year. By a huge margin too. Not to mention tony burnett was a track star at USC and showed incredible wheels in his time, especially on teams. He lacks the natural LB instincts, and considerable polish but the last thing he lacks is any of the physical abilities to play any lber position. I question how much of our front 7 struggles are personnel and how much is the system. Id look long and hard for an upgrade for bass. But still love to have bass back in camp. Wild was a lot better pre injury. Im sure we will bring about 20 Lbers to camp any way.
Noeller Posted January 21, 2017 Report Posted January 21, 2017 All I know is that Leggett was flat out the fastest guy on the team last year. Tracker 1
Blueandgold Posted January 21, 2017 Report Posted January 21, 2017 There's tons of good receivers available this year, but with Dress, Smith and Adams already under contract I don't see us being a major player for any of them.

Leggett is the best dime back in the league but I think McDuffie is pretty much untouchable when it comes to flat out speed on the team.

You forgot recently signed Stafford and Gurley may return...We have a good handle on the receiving dept.
Goalie Posted January 21, 2017 Report Posted January 21, 2017 I bet Gurley is a guy they have little interest in. Honestly he did sweet eff all in his time here.
