Nevis re-signed and Poop, Jeffcoat, Okpo still under contract and one position on the DL basically needs to be NI maybe two I just want to see a linebacker prospect that's all. This reminds me of last year where LB and REC ended up being our weakest recruiting areas... again. DR. CFL 1

We have one very good quarterback on hand two ..umm...questionable ones to protect and Bond has been a valuable and solidifying presence on the O-line. On the other hand, despite Randall's efforts, our backfield got lit up a lot once again. So, close as it might seem, my vote goes to keeping Bond. The thing is they won't.

Why wouldn't they? They brought back Hurl as the starting MLB so why not go for the double.

TrueBlue Posted January 19, 2018 Report Posted January 19, 2018 Winnipeg Blue Bombers agree to terms with CFL all-star cornerback Chris Randle WINNIPEG, MB., January 23, 2018 – The Winnipeg Blue Bombers today announce the club has agreed to terms with international cornerback Chris Randle on a two-year contract. Randle was scheduled to be a free agent next month. The Utah State product will enter his fifth season with Winnipeg in 2018, coming off an all-star season in which he was also named the team’s most outstanding defensive player. Randle finished the 2017 campaign with 60 defensive tackles, four special teams tackles, one sack, five interceptions, and two defensive touchdowns. “Simply put, Chris Randle was one of those players that we knew we needed to work something out with prior to February 13,” said General Manager Kyle Walters. “He is a leader in everything he does. He’s coming off the best season of his career and we’re looking forward to more of that in 2018. He’s a special player and an invaluable asset to our locker room, and I’m glad we were able to retain him.” Randle has now played in 89 career regular season CFL games over six seasons, including 58 with Winnipeg. He has amassed 233 defensive tackles, 56 special teams tackles, three sacks, 15 interceptions, four forced fumbles and four defensive touchdowns. JCon, Mark F, Sard and 6 others 5 1 3

TBURGESS Posted January 19, 2018 Report Posted January 19, 2018 Excellent signing. Glad to Randle back. blue_gold_84 1
MOBomberFan Posted January 19, 2018 Report Posted January 19, 2018 Big big signing. Thank goodness we were able to retain him. SPuDS and blue_gold_84 2
JCon Posted January 19, 2018 Report Posted January 19, 2018 YES! I bet we'll see another soon too. Darren Cameron suggested a couple of signings were close. blue_gold_84 and SPuDS 1 1
Mike Posted January 19, 2018 Report Posted January 19, 2018 Randle was a must sign, nice job Bombers Noeller, blue_gold_84 and SPuDS 1 2
blue_gold_84 Posted January 19, 2018 Report Posted January 19, 2018 Awesome news. Randle is a stud. SPuDS 1

SPuDS Posted January 19, 2018 Report Posted January 19, 2018 very good news on Randle.. losing him would have been a huge blow to our defense.
rebusrankin Posted January 19, 2018 Report Posted January 19, 2018 Randle is an excellent signing. Now I must leave because I am so happy about this news that I need to do the Dance of Joy. SPuDS and Mark F 2
Jpan85 Posted January 19, 2018 Report Posted January 19, 2018 Happiest man in Manitoba right now #RandleIsland Noeller, blue_gold_84, Mark F and 1 other 3 1
Blueandgold Posted January 19, 2018 Report Posted January 19, 2018 I love Randle and it’ll be nice to have him back. With Leggett injured, Randle was the most important of the trio to bring him back. SPuDS 1
Booch Posted January 19, 2018 Report Posted January 19, 2018 I'd say other than Bryant..the most important re-sign of the off season bearpants, SPuDS, blue_gold_84 and 2 others 2 3
Noeller Posted January 19, 2018 Report Posted January 19, 2018 Just now, Atomic said: Does this mean we can't have Bond now? I'll bet he goes to FA but we'll see what the other offers are like....
Floyd Posted January 19, 2018 Report Posted January 19, 2018 19 hours ago, SPuDS said: Because its oh so close to camp already? No - more along the lines that we're bringing a lot of prospects back from last season and I don't remember any linebackers being brought in for a look late in the season... could be wrong. I'd expect if they had found a 'gem' he'd be signed by now... like Bingham, Straughan, etc...
Floyd Posted January 19, 2018 Report Posted January 19, 2018 4 minutes ago, Noeller said: I'll bet he goes to FA but we'll see what the other offers are like.... Think he ends up as a Lion
