Doublezero Posted February 17, 2023 Report Posted February 17, 2023 1 minute ago, wbbfan said: Just rookie / first year guys and the draft now. Walters suggested they are looking for a Strevy-style rushing QB short yardage specialist for the #3 QB spot. Who might be on our neg list or otherwise that fits that bill, anyone know? This year, with the new rule that teams must dress 3 QBs each game I could see some formations where we line up 2 QBs. That'll be fun! GCJenks 1

Are the Bombers going to be trading someone? You hate to say you have too much talent in one spot...buuut... Dangle Agudosi to Chris Jones on draft day.

Booch Posted February 17, 2023 Report Posted February 17, 2023 11 minutes ago, TrueBlue4ever said: Not sure I totally buy Farhan’s “belief”. Bailey was expendable here once we got Lawler signed and Schoen did not get an NFL bite. Bailey committed to free agency knowing he was not a priority here, and we heard crickets for a week, which suggests that the other teams saw what Walters saw, that Bailey is a supplemental piece and not a number one receiver (and his career stats back up that assertion, IMO). I don’t buy that he left heaps of money and a higher profile role as a prime target receiver on another team to come back here as the 4th option in the progressions. My “belief” is that he did not get any great offers, and teams were not prepared to pay close to his $130,000 salary from last year for a 35-40 yards a game average third option American receiver. So he chose the best option which was to come back where he was comfortable and knew the system, and earn what he could and hope for bonus playoff cash. But a great depth signing if we got him for less than 6 figures. you're entitled to that.......opinion?.. Dude got just under 800 yards after a slow start...and 9 tds...and was key in other areas...3 guys had more receiving td's than him....ironically 2 of em were Bombers taking away more potential td's for him....other teams would have loved to have that GCJenks, wbbfan, Piggy 1 and 1 other 2 2
