Floyd Posted January 31, 2020 Report Posted January 31, 2020 Pipkin would be fine - he’s still young... didn’t have a good offensive scheme everyone worships streveler and throws every other young QB under the bus if they’re not our 3rd stringer haha

To clear up my stance I too would rather go with Mcguire. I think Pipkin will find a job somewhere though. Guys like Pipkin can have long careers basically holding a clipboard while throwing less than 20 passes a year.

Im looking at him as a guy that needs some development time but has some raw tools. I think he would be good as a 3rd down short yardage type of qb and if Zach suffers an injury he could serve as McGuire's backup and would already have a handle on the offense. CodyT 1
Mike Posted January 31, 2020 Report Posted January 31, 2020 The only real thing Pipkin has going for him is he’s mobile and he’s got 3 years of experience despite being 24. Wouldn’t hate it if he got brought in to compete and to see if he could do something with a new system, but wouldn’t be thrilled at all to hear he’s our plan at QB2. CodyT 1
TBURGESS Posted January 31, 2020 Report Posted January 31, 2020 The Bombers need to bring in a QB with some CFL experience. Pipkin's at least won a couple of CFL games. He's young. He has some upside. If we sign him, he may not even make it through camp, but we still need extra camp arms anyway. CodyT and Tracker 2
Dirty30 Posted January 31, 2020 Report Posted January 31, 2020 Any chance of this thread getting back on track and talking receivers? Floyd and NorthernSkunk 2
Nolby Posted January 31, 2020 Report Posted January 31, 2020 Posey just released, wouldn't be against him if he can stay healthy. Bubba Zanetti, Bigblue204 and Colin Unger 3

But probably too early to pounce on him. I feel like a lot hinges on the status of Willie Jefferson. If he's not coming back would like to see us looking to spend up at WR1. Fred C Dobbs 1
Mark F Posted January 31, 2020 Report Posted January 31, 2020 (edited) I don't think the Bombers are going to sign any high price free agent receivers. Don't need one. top Canuck DB maybe. Canuck D lineman maybe. Don't need much else. Just went through losing top two Canuck O lineman, and replaced them from within, without much turbulence.

Mike Posted January 31, 2020 Report Posted January 31, 2020 I’ve wanted Posey since he was an Argo and I know the Bombers have been in on him both times he’s been available so hopefully third time is the charm Colin Unger and Bubba Zanetti 2

We just freed up about $450,000 with Nichols release so I don't know if we have to wait on Jefferson. OTOH, if the Als or any other team was to put in a higher offer for him, we can have some flexibility to match or move on. NorthernSkunk 1
Tracker Posted January 31, 2020 Report Posted January 31, 2020 My vote is for Rhymes. Very under-rated.
Booch Posted January 31, 2020 Report Posted January 31, 2020 I would think to that at this point, he is tired of bouncing around to teams in disarray..turmoil and being nomadic and would welcome the chance to go somewhere with a high chance of winning..a solid culture and management and have a chance at play-ff money...things that in all reality are gonna make players strongly consider WWinnipeg, and if its a 10-15k difference they may leave that on table and ign here, with good possibility of getting that money back in play-off winnings
SpeedFlex27 Posted January 31, 2020 Report Posted January 31, 2020 Posey would be an awesome signing.

But we do have Willie's $200K plus whatever they were paying Streveler, Sayles, Rose, Hecht, and Fenner. Those guys wont be back this year in all likelihood(Willie hopefully not).

I have a bad feeling about Jefferson signing with another CFL team.
Booch Posted January 31, 2020 Report Posted January 31, 2020 we had cap surplus last year though as we didn't have big salary really tied into an import receiver..Speller..Desjarlais make less than Couture did..most likely Hecht..Fenner...possibly Jone's salaries are gonna be off the books...Mike Jones is less than what Rose and Sayles made...we have more than enough money even with Jefferson and Strev money put aside and temporarily accounted for
Bubba Zanetti Posted January 31, 2020 Report Posted January 31, 2020 Just now, SpeedFlex27 said: I have a bad feeling about Jefferson signing with another CFL team. I'd be shocked. I think Winnipeg feels like home to him and his wife.

He literally cried in his post Grey Cup interview talking about his teammates and how much more this Grey Cup meant to him compared to the one he won with Edmonton. No way he leaves. Tracker 1
