Noeller and Blue-urns 2
wbbfan Posted February 8, 2023 Report Posted February 8, 2023 31 minutes ago, WinnipegGordo said: Yup, and prolly no money left for a high priced kicker. My guess is if Leggs loses the field goal job it will be to a Global player as they are still relatively cheap. I fully believe they only ever intended on bringing in a global or crapinga esq kicker to push legs in camp.
Jesse Posted February 8, 2023 Report Posted February 8, 2023 It is more than I expected, but I’m sure Walters knows there’s going to be some cap room at the end of the year to do some restructuring and make a couple of these bigger contracts more palatable for 2024. Geebrr and wbbfan 2
WinnipegGordo Posted February 8, 2023 Report Posted February 8, 2023 Also, teams are still allowed to go over the cap. What's the problem if the Bombers go over the cap by say 80k? They just need to pay a fine of 80k. What if it allows them to win the Grey Cup again? Does anyone remember/ care which Grey Cup champs have gone over the cap? Bigblue204 1

Bigblue204 Posted February 8, 2023 Report Posted February 8, 2023 Imagine comparing what the L'ks did last year to what the Bombers are doing this year? Lol. I wonder if there are any details that might be missing, the nuances of it or something... Also read over there that the Bombers have just been lucky....for like the past 8 years...its just smoke and mirrors...lucky bounces....CFL conspiracies!! Definitely not good-great teams from top to bottom...no no, 8 years of luck!! We've said it on here before but it can not be repeated enough..RIGHT NOW is the best era of Bomber football we've ever had!! Remember to appreciate it folks!!

Mike Posted February 8, 2023 Report Posted February 8, 2023 Didn’t realize the price tag for receivers was so high all of a sudden I don’t like 300k but I wouldn’t have liked 140k for Bailey last year either Bigblue204, Wideleft, Noeller and 1 other 3 1

Maybe the XFL/USFL is having an impact at this position.

There aren't that many top shelf QBs so I guess teams have to make up for that by trying to buy the best receivers they can Wideleft 1

rebusrankin Posted February 8, 2023 Report Posted February 8, 2023 Dear Tigercats, BLM needs somebody to throw to and I was good last year. Time to pay up. Tim White Noeller, Bigblue204, JCon and 1 other 4

Maybe they make a bid for Geno? For the price tag he demands id probably rather have White and Dunbar.. rebusrankin and Bubba Zanetti 2
Stickem Posted February 8, 2023 Report Posted February 8, 2023 The message that Lawler left with the Elks shows what a class act he is....For all of the accolades he sent their way ....and the fact that he wanted to come home to a place he obviously luvs better....says a lot about us and our organization....Welcome home Kenny blue_gold_84, Noeller, Bigblue204 and 5 others 8

We've seen the steps WJ5 has taken in his life, in terms of maturing, and I think we're seeing it with Lawler now, too... and this man is ready to do work in '23!! the watcher, GCJenks, Blue-urns and 3 others 3 3

Last words Walters utters before going all in on Lawler. 😁 Jesse 1
GCn20 Posted February 8, 2023 Report Posted February 8, 2023 1 hour ago, Booch said: their salaries are peanuts....so not likely I'm not suggesting they could ever compete for our established receivers, but certainly the presence of two other leagues would dip into the prospect pool somewhat. Therefore, the less available top prospects the more the existing stock becomes worth. Not to mention the fact that the NFL expanded PRs and eligibility is really laying a smack down on availability of players particularly at skill positions.
