Posts like these are pretty funny - if Judge was a bomber with the same stat line, we'd be talking about what a coup it was to draft him and how we need to lock him up as a core piece haha

To be honest..not a fan of Judge and a lot of holes in his game..and if not for the fact it was realized he was draft eligible,  most likely wouldn't be playing ball anywhere

Had decent stats..is good enough to.play but not a difference maker by any means, and wont be worth the salary he.prob gonna get cause he's "canadian"

Our lb core didn't play nearly as well as they did the previous year but they filled a different role. Wilson made some fantastic plays but didn't perform at a level that likely gets an NFL deal or a huge contract. About the only way we don't bring him back is if we got a ratio breaker like judge at a good deal but I don't see that happening. 

Glad yoshi is back off season is off to a great start. 

Kyrie is just assignment sound, and a great athlete that does not cheat his responsibility to make splash plays.

That guy is one of the best tacklers in the league in my opinion. Not very often a guy breaks away from him or he is caught out of position.

He is also not much of a "look at me" kind of guy. Just kills the play, on to the next one.

I'm not worried about the offensive line especially center where we have Speller and Eli already.  Where we are low on Canadian talent its defense. We need to have a National on the field at all times.  Without Kongbo we would need to play Jake Thomas and a rotationary Canadian DT to keep him fresh at all times.  Perhaps we would look at moving on from Kyrie Wilson and starting Jesse Briggs at linebacker.  We seemed to be fine when we were starting a Canadian at WILL when Biggie was out.

To fix the Canadian ratio and keeping an all American dline, all that needs to be done is find a Starting Canadian safety. Then we don’t have to talk about stupid things like replacing Wilson.

Have to agree with that.

Its a moot point anyway... we don't have $$ to replace Korey Jones with a non-import and Wilson is under contract and preforming well

We'll draft a DL I would think, keep building from the trenches 

I do think they pencil in Exume the same way Derek Jones was unofficially our S until TC - I do think Walters tries for a value signing like Courtney Stephen 

Then again I've thought we moved on from guys before so Hecht could be back...

Just understand that someone is going to sign Judge coming off what is likely to be the best season of his career.

Never a good deal for the team signing that guy.

Those big plays are an anomaly.

Its about putting the best possible defense on the field. The defense got significantly better after Hecht was benched and we started Alexander at safety. I'm not convinced a top end Canadian safety is going to fall onto our laps.

#Bombers GM Kyle Walters spending some more of that excess cash left over from 2019, signing right tackle Jermarcus Hardrick to a one-year contract extension. #wfp

Kyle Walters saving 2020 Cap space. He does a masterful job of stuff like this.

[M.O.A.B.]

I believe, next year we will have a longer list of pending free-agents and every player who signs a 1-year contract this off-season will be added to that list.

That's some solid math right there

Hot damn! Yesss! I was worried about his lack of production recently (and limited  throws) would mean that he would look elsewhere. 

[bustamente]

Canadian talent was a huge part of the Grey Cup win, I expect Woli to contribute even more in the upcoming years

[TBURGESS]

Good signing.

[NorthernSkunk]

Get Big Chris signed now and then him an Woli can go practise during the off season some more...

[Dodge and Burn]

With a new OC hopefully we will see Drew in the slot more. Good signing!

[17to85]

Woogie is a gooders. Hoping that a new OC will use him more cause he is the type of receiver I love. Good mitts and willing to put his shoulder down and run forward rather than dance side to side.

[Geebrr]

Great move. 

Also Streveler's BFF on the roster.

In the slot he’s 1000 yard guy - dare to dream

Since the moment he stepped on the field I’ve said this guy reminds me so much of Jason Clermont.

Why he hasn’t been lined up in the slot and used more is beyond me.

[B-F-F-C]

It’s up to the OC to target him and Lapo had his favourites.   It seems like Demski was favoured over Wolli

Cause Lapo likes his slot backs to be guys like Demski or Dressler who can do more rushing/misdirection type plays. He wants a speed guy in the slot.
