A lot of it is coaching & roster management.  In other words, our HC. 

Either way... some sort of change needs to happen.   It is unfortunate that Zach is making such a hefty salary as it would be nice to have enough money for a 1a and 1b.     I don't know if a Davis Alexander would want to sign for a smaller contract only for him to hold a clipboard.

What about Tua's little bro in Hamilton?

I used to love CF, but his personality wore off on me quite quickly.

In his defense I suppose, Craig Dickenson would be painful to work for/with.

I was excited about mbt too. Good taste in talent bad taste in head cases when it comes to QBs lol.

I wonder had Harris played for us in the Grey Cup if the outcome would have been different.  Harris doesn't throw prayer and a wish deep throws...  he's vanilla but maybe vanilla may have been a better shot then  just chucking and praying.  

Masoli would be interesting to consider in that situation too. We were hot after him a couple times.

Why are posters here giving that a thumbs up??? That's brutal if we lose Buck, Goveia & McManus. 

Brutal to lose Ted and Mac. Losing buck is addition by subtraction. We’ve done an exceptional job of identifying and developing front office guys if we lose one of Ted and Danny we will be fine. Replacing two key front office pieces would be hard. 
 I think we could benefit from another fresh pair of eyes in the front office. 
 Losing ringmaiden was much harder than either Ted or Danny.  And I love both of those guys. 
The more you develop and circulate guys like that around the league and football the better off you are. It allows you to attract much better talent and get them to fit into the coaching cap how ever needed.

In fajardo's defense, there are qbs who go their whole career without getting to or winning a championship. Dieter Brock being among them. 

You forgot another sleeper who was hurt most of last season..... Taylor Powell. He'd be #2 behind Davis Alexander on my "Get List" if I was Kyle Walters. 

it’s true. And he earned it too. He’s not a carry along he played great.

Goveia is a major loss, and a guy who would be a quality GM.

Think McManus moving on would be good for us in terms of getting some new eyes in on the personnel side, especially in the US, but don't think he has a hope in hell of landing a GM job.  He's like the Van Wilder of the CFL.

Agreed, we should get streveler back.

Wish we could get 2019 Streveler back

Brandon, I somehow missed your quote about some kind of change is needed.  My response?? Some sort of change? SMH. What kind of change? Nothing will change until Mike takes it upon himself & leaves. He's the winningest coach in Bomber history. Do you really think he'll suddenly look inward & say that he blew it & needs to change or do things differently? That will never happen. What we see is what we'll get.

Tommy, please step into a time machine & come back as the 1984 version of yourself.

A worse, less experienced version of him...?
