Leake would be awesome, so would getting Grant back from the Argos and correcting a big whiff from this past offseason.

Leake is 5 years younger though... although that is the kind of thinking that got the Bombers into the mess in the first place 😆

Leake would be brilliant. Rotational super sub at rb, wr, and return guy. Run some two back go-go stuff with he and Brady. 
 I’m sure it won’t happen but that’d be a wicked get.

Thoughts on season to date.....even tho not finished, and even tho a Cup win at the end is the marker of success I am of the thought that regardless of what occurs now this has to be considered a success of sorts

We have effectively had a pretty significant transition, tho not by choice it did happen....and somewhat alleviates the fear of going into a 2025 home Cup run that we would have leaned and relied on this aging and underperforming corp

We will re-sign both Lawler and Schoen...you can bank on that and with the 3 young kids showing they have the chops....and another off-season and TC of growth we in good shape there, and any new body that blows the lights out in TC/Pre-season is just another bee in the hive for us

Defensively I think we have found our 2 legit ends to compliment WJ in Garbutt and Person's....even tho you all havn't seen him take a rep...he's the real deal nd he was a legit NFL pass rush specialist prospect...they wanted him to gain weight for that role but he didnt go that route and he is a perfect blend for the CFL....So again even with Haba here and anyone else we bring in....we will have depth...Haba is a real nice 4th guy. WE have those 2 legit ends with WJ...and just let him loose to attack the QB with 60% of snaps...look out...Thats where he thrives

D-line wise...Fox..Woods..Adams with another yr...only gonna get better...And logic has to tell you Lawson takes Thomas' snaps...god willing and again...thats a net positive....I don't hink Schmeck fits in there and Samson or possibly a 2025 draft pick or a Global takes his spot . That was a serious area of concern...last yr...going into this yr and a wholesale change for 2025 would likely not been the best way to go....and the fear of just rolling withThomas would have been the way Osh leans....Be interesting what Osh does with him next yr...is he even signed?

Linebacker to...with Jones..Ayers...Cole...we are good...anyone who comes in and pushes them out...even better, and Biggie wont be back to Labour day earliest...and even then..age...body type...i have a hard time seeing him being in the mix...and id we cant unearht a new stud...Wilson as the DA...limited packages...depth...ST leader....we could do way worse

We now need to tweak/fine tune the defense for most part in 2025...People love Holm but he really is the weak link...Griffin would offer a lot more...already does....and we are pretty good at finding DB's...I would think a role for Holm would be the 6th...and Nationalized and used in various spots....mainly that role they tried with Hallett....as he was continuously burned...interesting enough we haven't seem much of that of late so obviously the coaching did notice that....now time to notice SchmeckThomas

I think our area of focus has to be mainly O-line and returner in free -agency/draft/scouting... I am fine with Bryant as he has not regressed and during the streak he was lights out...But there will be others in free agency to go after, and I can't not see us going after some....I would also be fine with Neuf back, but in the role of Wallace/Eli....and if Grant is available....I'd be all over that again...I'd also bring Lucky back to compete in camp

all in all....we in good shape heading into 2025

I wonder if we bring back any of the lbers from camp this year. Thomas, petrishen, gemmel and moses all had big time flashes. I’d suspect Thomas and gemmel would be high on the list for the mafia. But I’d be happy to see any of them back.

I’d like us to explore adding a ratio breaking if we get the chance. Especially in the front 6. If we can get a good Canadian pass rusher, or tackle box guy that’d go a long ways. I’d look long and hard at flipping a guard spot, though Wallace might be ready to start next year. 
 More ni wr depth would be big. 
Ol are always at a premium. Might be time to invest in a good vet tackle.

Thomas signed onto the Als PR recently, bet we’ve seen the last of him. Too bad, he really looked like he had something.

In case anyone needed more proof of what a class act Brady O. is, he came out to my son's U13 A3 hockey final today (he is neighbors with one of the boys on the team) to watch the game, give the kids a speech in the room at the end and hand out the player of the game award for us. The kids were absolutely pumped and I am sure are now Bombers fans for life.

yup...he was a force and becoming a beast....he will be a nice addition next year...Him with any of the imports in 3...and 4 man fronts will be a world of difference than that wet sac of cement that we use there now...just shoved outta the way or ran around and past

He was on the PR but he signed a futures contract for next season so no FA for him.

Bighill situation would require some MLB extra bodies going into camp next year for sure.

Meh...he is a FA at seasons end if he is not activated.

He'll lose to BLM in the final, I listened to a few CFL podcasts last night and voter sentiment across the country is pointing towards Bo.

I can understand it. Based on stats alone BLM had the most outstanding season of anyone this year.

Pretty sure Biggie won't be any part of the equation in 2025 timeline wise...I see him being 2025 version of 2023 Mike Miller

Ayers...Jones...and Cole should have every chance to vye for the starters spots and rotational guy....that being said I'd like to see us bring in the numbers like we have for DB's before...and WR's.....we need to re-stock the team with viable legit A-1 starting talent that make an impact...not just fill a role

Not sure who will be available be available in FA either...but if there is a top tier impact gy...we should be all over it

Schoen will be re-signed and off the books for a good 6-8 games, so the savings there can easily be slid to an impact defender

Biggie is busy rehabbing so it sure looks like he intends to come back, somebody has to tell him they're moving on, guess who won't be willing to do it?

Biggie may be back, but he will have to accept a reduced role.
