NorthernSkunk Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 Manziel to Bowman for another Montreal TD....... might be the beginning of something great for Montreal 😜

peggars Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 time to see Thompkins or Corey Washington get some reps, could be exciting SPuDS, BomberBall, wbbfan and 1 other 4
voodoochylde Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 So .. I guess the experiment ends today? Bigblue204 and Mark F 1 1

Lol HAS to be cap-related Better than outright releasing him. This is a win without a doubt. We don’t have to pay him and we don’t have to play him. Firekid, Wanna-B-Fanboy, SPuDS and 1 other 3 1
Fatty Liver Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 I would have preferred they never signed him in the first place but this seems like a reasonable resolution. Rely on the scouts to fill the position and bring on the competition.
shadybob Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 Damn - only an 8th round pick. oh well, he wasn't producing here and I'm excited to see what Washington / Thompkins can do.
Booch Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 (edited) I'd assume Washington gets first crack at it...He looked good in the slot and coming across the middle and up through the flats. I bet in Bowmans first game he gets between 6-8 catches for 100+ yards too If they insert Lankford...I will puke and if I was one of Tompkins and Washington I would actually ask for my release cause of that...we know what Lankford is as a receiver and it's bottom teir Edited July 23, 2018 by Booch SPuDS, Brandon Blue&Gold, rebusrankin and 2 others 5
Mr. Perfect Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 Considering the giving mood Kavis Reed was in yesterday its a bit surprising Kyle Walters wasn't able to get more of a return. (Sort of kidding)

Albertabomberguy Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 Or do we go with 3 Canadian receivers? Demski, Wolitarski and then a combo of Petterman and Simonice?
Booch Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 doubt that...and really no reason for it Bigblue204 1
Colin Unger Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 Honestly we'd be just as good if not better if we starting another Canadian receiver. Perhaps the team looks at starting Simonise and adding Flanders to there roster once he's healthy. Tracker 1

blueingreenland Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 Montreal had a real need. We didn't seem to be using or didn't seem to need Bowman...so...good move for both teams
Nickthesizz Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 (edited) Sounds like it’s cap related. I really wanna see what Kenbrell Thompkins can do. Edited July 23, 2018 by Gotmilt blueingreenland 1
The Unknown Poster Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 I would have figured we'd at least come away with Montreal's 2024 first rounder. But, good for Bowman to get a fresh start and Im sure there's a financial reason for the Bombers too. Nickthesizz, kelownabomberfan, Tracker and 1 other 2 2

Somebody like Petermann could likely do a better job in that role as a Canadian. The Unknown Poster 1
kelownabomberfan Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 I guess all of us guys who said that Bowman wasn't producing were right. Glad we were able to salvage something for this failed project. Time to see what the next man up can do - the shoes aren't that big to fill. The Unknown Poster 1
