GCn20 Posted January 14, 2021 Report Posted January 14, 2021 Whether Lucky is back will be highly dependent on whether Grant re-ups or not I think. Both are very similar guys, but we need one of them back. Neither will command big dollars and will be good value for the money because of their ST skills. Tracker 1
bigg jay Posted January 14, 2021 Report Posted January 14, 2021 (edited) 1 hour ago, JCon said: I wouldn't be surprised to see Lucky leave. He didn't complain when he didn't play in the GC but he must be looking to start fulltime. Not playing in the GC hasn't soured him on playing here. I saw a tweet the other day where someone said they were hoping to see his re-signing announced next and his reply suggested he was hoping for the same. Edited January 14, 2021 by bigg jay Added the tweet Noeller and JCon 2
17to85 Posted January 14, 2021 Report Posted January 14, 2021 Lucky Whitehead was as jacked post grey cup game as anyone. If they offer him a contract I'd be shocked if he didn't come back. bigg jay, wbbfan, JCon and 1 other 4

And late in the season Bailey won the job from him. Lucky has sooo much speed and enough skill to be a quality CFL receiver... just needs the right OC to get the most out of him...

Noeller Posted January 14, 2021 Author Report Posted January 14, 2021 I'm not sure if they can keep all of Grant, Whitehead and Nelson, but damn it if they shouldn't try. Weapons, the lot of 'em... did Grant stick with an NFL team? I know he asked for his release to try and catch on, but not sure if he did.....?

rebusrankin Posted January 14, 2021 Report Posted January 14, 2021 So Farhan tweeted this: @FarhanLaljiTSN @Stmn_Willie_Bmn got a 205K contract with 100K signing bonus and it wasn't acrimonious. I'm surprised he didn't get more. It's a pretty good deal for Winnipeg." To which Jefferson replied Yea man we just trying to build a dynasty over here!!!! I just love this tweet and Jefferson. bigg jay, Booch, Stickem and 8 others 5 6
Noeller Posted January 15, 2021 Author Report Posted January 15, 2021 without being too rude about it, I am absolutely shocked that Willie Jefferson would take a pay cut. Talk about maturing...that's really something alright. Bigblue204 1

Seriously Lapo always leans on his star players heavily. Why are we shocked whe he leaned on Harris like that? Now that LaPo is gone there is no reason why we can't have a thousand yard rusher in Harris & at least two thousand yard receivers with the players we have. Tracker and Bigblue204 1 1

While here bond was the best guard in the league hands down. 16 hours ago, BBlink said: Don't we need a kick returner though? Isnt charles nelson still under contract? He was looking really good until he got hurt, Id love to see him back. Id also love to see lucky and grant back cant have too much speed on the team. I think like most here if used well lucky could easily turn into a highly productive wr. He was mostly used as a decoy with lapo, running off the secondary.

bearpants Posted January 15, 2021 Report Posted January 15, 2021 This is why I was always under the assumption Harris would stay... I think the Bombers were definitely going to offer something... but maybe it's at a lower rate, say 150K (reports are he signed for 175)... was Harris really going to pack up and move to Ottawa (for example) for an extra 25k?... I highly doubt it...
