Floyd Posted February 14, 2018 Report Posted February 14, 2018 What's the scoop on Greg Jones - career derailed by injury or... is he worth a shot? Thought he was really good with Sask

Reported salary was 90k in 2017, down from 120 in 2015 &16. 80k in 2018 is a sensible number for him. Santa Claus probably has a base that is around the minimum. but if his agent had any sense he would have negotiated some bonuses for games started. Rookies unfortunately are stuck negotiating from a position of weakness and GMs can say take it or leave it.
Goalie Posted February 14, 2018 Report Posted February 14, 2018 (edited) I find it hard to believe bombers would have been content with just signing demski and lafrance. Fenner was obviously targeted with or without Westerman They signed 3 guys. Spent like under 400 k yesterday. Edited February 14, 2018 by Goalie
Booch Posted February 14, 2018 Report Posted February 14, 2018 even though it was early...Bowman was technically a free agent day signing too...filled a need we would have been looking for and as it turned out would have been most likely Criner...and god forbid Marquay McDaniel... Agents are most likely getting back to teams with offers...counter offers..etc...it is only day 2 after all Bigblue204, MOBomberFan and SPuDS 3

Last year they signed LeFevour in FA, this year they were able to get Durant a month before FA. Same process, just a different day on the calendar. I have to say, this offseason has been far more interesting than usual. For the Bombers and for the league. Edited February 14, 2018 by mbrg The Classic, SPuDS and Bigblue204 3
Bigblue204 Posted February 14, 2018 Report Posted February 14, 2018 They also signed Baines today another Ntl Rec. So they've landed some bigger names and now working on depth. And really when you look at the roster that's all that's needed. I mean a legit MLB would be nice, but besides that, depth is needed. The Classic 1

I can't fault him- he gets to close out his career playing beside his brother, that is worth a lot. Good luck to him and wish him the best (except against us), I will miss him.

Sure hope Baines is not our 'depth'...

rebusrankin Posted February 14, 2018 Report Posted February 14, 2018 Baines seems like another sign we're starting two NI receivers. Demski+Coates to start with Drew W+Baines as reserves. SPuDS and Mark F 2

Dirty30 Posted February 14, 2018 Report Posted February 14, 2018 So given what we know today personnel-wise...who do the Bombers draft? I’m hoping WR Simonise. Could be a deadly Bigblue204 1

Demski+Coates to start with Drew W+Baines as reserves. Wondering why we wouldn't start Lafrance as a RB/SB hybrid like Flanders? Adams - Bowman - Harris - Lafrance/Flanders - Dressler - Demski/Coates or DrewW I really like that lineup - tailor made for Lapo

You can't have a team of all-stars at every position. And some of the depth signings are going to be less than ideal. That's just the way it works (in the CFL anyway). Goalie 1
wookie Posted February 14, 2018 Report Posted February 14, 2018 go get our old first rd pick back, mr MLB, do we have enough $$$ to pay him, that is a question
