I was talking to Mike. Not you. Besides, I wasn't arguing either. How can I be arguing when I've made maybe a half dozen posts the past 2 weeks? I barely come here anymore. Is it May yet?

Not unless your are either the PM of England or the leader of the Green party.

Maybe. I could see him being an assistant to hall though.

I hope that he could step in and replace Hall should the defence perform as it did last year.  I still see Hall as the Bomber defence's biggest liability, and in this I assume that the MLB position is upgraded significantly.

foreman sounds like our prototypical db. a fogg clone. Speed to burn, made a bunch of plays but has some questions.  lot of pass KDs, love seeing that.

Bombers add 2 imp wrs.

Jerome lane. Interesting story and body type. Real big strong guy. Started out as a S/lb, itd be pretty awesome if he was a good kick cover guy as well as wr.

Dominique reed is also interesting but the opposite. Another tall guy listed 6'3 but listed a shade under 180. Did some kick returning too. Blew up his pro day 4.39 40" vert 10'4 broad jump 4.50 shuttle and 6.82 3 cone. 6 reps on the bench press. but if hes 180 that isnt bad.

Jerome Lane reminds me of Derel Walker the way he plays

 

[Floyd]

Like the tall receivers...  blue bomber roster looking pretty good pre-draft...  like the competition this year - esp if one or two of these DB prospects are competing for WIL

[Jpan85]

 6’4 215lb

[M.O.A.B.]

suddenly we got 3-4 new tall intl receivers coming in that looks promising

Washington, Lane, Reed and Stevens.

feels weird though, hope none of ourbig 3 is retiring ?

[Tracker]

Was there a special on tall receivers down south this week? This does not bode well for our current lot of receivers, even though these may be training camp fodder.

[blueingreenland]

Didn't Dressler just sign a 1 year contract late last fall? Doubt he retires (maybe after 2018 season but not before). We could always use a couple of guys in our system when injuries happen. 

[DR. CFL]

Isn’t the April mini camp coming up? Teams do this, sign guys to look at them at the mini camp and then decide if they survive  to rookie or main TC.

Also can put guys on PR or IR also... I'd imagine they will keep around 1 or 2 maybe 3 of these guys and let them develop for a bit. 

[Booch]

We can be super unfortunate too and have a rash of injury trouble and 6 game 15 to 20 to keep around ala Sask.....

i dont think these guys are TCF, tcf imps is kind of a thing of the past imo. These guys have some legit up side. Huge athletic, some very productive in college. More of a flyer low risk high reward move with some of em that didnt play a lot in college.
