Traded to us for pennies on the dollar as a pending FA I believe. Noeller 1
rebusrankin Posted December 21, 2019 Report Posted December 21, 2019 Jefferson was on 1290 yesterday. Nothing really new but the gist was NFL opportunities if its the right fit or likely back to Winnipeg. Colin Unger, Stickem, JBombers and 1 other 4

Mr Dee Posted December 21, 2019 Report Posted December 21, 2019 Tait*er*Gems: Winnipeg had 31 pending free agents as ’18 came to a close. This year we had 25, 4 of which have been extended. Last year, they attacked that free agent group significantly: re-signing Adam Bighill, Nic Demski, Stanley Bryant, Jermarcus Hardrick, Brandon Alexander, Jesse Briggs, Michael Couture, Shayne Gauthier, Jeff Hecht, Jackson Jeffcoat, Justin Medlock, Thomas Miles, Chad Rempel, John Rush, Jake Thomas and Kyrie Wilson, and then Drake Nevis a few weeks into the proceedings.This year, so far...Hardrick, Wolitarsky, Maston and Neufeld have been extended Then we were hit by losing 3 Canadian starters...Loffler and Chungh to FA and Goosen to retirement. Also...Released : Chris Randle, Moe Leggett, Kevin Fogg, Jovan Santos-Knox, Tristan Okpalaugo and Ian Wild and the retirement of Weston Dressler https://www.bluebombers.com/2019/12/21/year-review-reloading-2018/ That is quite the list the Bomber lost and overcame. Can we do it again? I think so! JBombers, Tracker, rebusrankin and 2 others 3 2

Booch Posted December 21, 2019 Report Posted December 21, 2019 Lapo sure is scooping up former bomber cuts..and coaches..former players as coaches it seems
BBlink Posted December 21, 2019 Report Posted December 21, 2019 What was the scoop with Anderson. Was he a guy we liked but he just wanted more of an opportunity? Either way I don't blame Lapo for bringing in some familiarity. It should help him early on

Pete Catan's Ghost Posted December 25, 2019 Report Posted December 25, 2019 (edited) Thinking of Clarence Denmark right now.
