Yep who needs players like Biggie, Neufeld, and Jefferson and eventually Bryant, and Hardrick. CFL all stars....who needs em. 7 minutes ago, Geebrr said: Willie Jefferson would start on any team in this league That is not even debatable. He is a top 5 player in this league outside of QB. 10 minutes ago, Noeller said: I figured that was going to be the talking point....and it's not necessarily WRONG, but it's too early to tell just yet. And there's still lots of young-ish guys yet to sign, that I believe will, it's just that the first ones off the board have been the old-and-possibly-too-old players... Willie is in his prime, Neufeld and Bighill were CFLPA all stars. It's stupid commentary on their end. Even if they regress they are still better than most teams will field this year at those same positions.

Consider this, the same nutbars saying this at Riderfans are also saying we made a mistake signing Collaros to a 3 year deal. I just find it rich that a team without an OL, or QB would be criticizing a team for extending an MOP QB, and a CFLPA all star OG. Their GM would be tripping over his left nut to sign any of the players we have extended thus far. rebusrankin and Bigblue204 1 1

This isn't hockey where his contract is guaranteed through the term... Bigblue204 1

Tracker Posted November 29, 2022 Report Posted November 29, 2022 15 hours ago, BBlink said: I was wondering if he was on the PR considering they had a Pic of him in Bomber colours. That is one BIG mother- 6'6" and 315 pounds- big enough to burn diesel. In watching his college highlights, he seems to move well for an elephant and plays right to the whistle- good attributes for a CFL O-lineman career. BBlink 1

Because what alternative would be have if Zach retired tomorrow? Dru Brown, Prukop, and bring in the developmental guy - we're gonna have that anyway.

captaincanuck12 Posted November 29, 2022 Report Posted November 29, 2022 Man the English language is dumb. I am assuming he means re-sign as in new contract. Not resign as in leave. Anyways bring back OSH and more players will follow. JCon, Bigblue204, BigBlueFanatic and 4 others 7

The list of things they are missing is fairly long (HC, GM, common sense, bars of soap, a 5th stripe, etc) so talking about successful teams is all they can do. blue_gold_84, GCJenks, JCon and 2 others 2 3
