M.Silverback got a reaction from wbbfan in 2024/2025 CFL (non-Bomber) Off-Season ThreadI watched him play a lot in RSEQ. 3rd round was a bit high, but he was also very productive in the RSEQ. Real clutch WR with great hands and could catch in traffic. But, he wasn't a big play game breaker like Kevin Mital was. Still, I'm surprised he wasn't a rotational WR in the CFL. Maybe he could have been on the Redblacks, but he's moved on. Good for him.

Murphy was an odd pick imo. Didn't play special teams at all, didn't really have any tangibles that set him apart as far as I'm aware. Always thought it was an odd pick, especially in the 3rd round. oh well, good luck to him in his future endeavors.

M.Silverback reacted to GCn20 in 2024/2025 CFL (non-Bomber) Off-Season ThreadHe had some potential that went unrealized....but yea...kind of a bit of a flyer in the 3rd round. Probably a 6th round talent really.

M.Silverback got a reaction from wbbfan in 2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season ThreadI watched a lot of RSEQ football again this past season. Not as many high end prospects coming out of there this year as previously. However, I'd be shocked if Jeremiah Ojo doesn't turn into at least a solid rotational DL in the CFL. Tested really well at the combine, and was really dominant in RSEQ. He reminds me of Josh Archibald, who is now with the Alouettes, but I'd say he's quicker. If Kyle Walters is reading this, pick him, and you're welcome.

I'd expect to get 3-4 guys who can play this year. The OL group is probably the deepest since 2019. Talking about guys who will end up in the CFL. There's a **** load of good edge/3 technique guys for DL. Including the BYU guy who has potential to drop into a spot where he'd be a real steal based on how he's turned off the personnel guys in both leagues. There's a ton of very good DB's. There's a solid receiver group, although some guys in both receiver/DB group might get a good look in the NFL.
I kind of wonder what other teams are prioritizing. There's a chance for the Bombers in the first round, remembering BC's pick is off the board and added back to the end of the 1st round to Calgary, to grab a real impactful DL, a OL who could play this year, or a starting receiver IMO. Like if I'm Walters and our pick comes around, Ethan Jordan still on the board, don't think I could pass on him. That guy is a star.

M.Silverback reacted to Goalie in 2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season ThreadMaybe I watched different games last year but I thought the O was pretty lacklustre and disappointing for the amount of money they allocated to the O. Lots of games couldn’t put up 20 points so to see change on the O side of things (woli lawler Dobson) isn’t that surprising. I actually expected it. You can’t bring the same guys back who stunk it up most games last year. I mean believe Calgary was the only team who put up less points on O than we did. Change was inevitable. D was good. It’s just not your regular cfl D ppl are used to but our D was strong last year. We allowed the least amount of points. So all of these changes. They make sense. Lawler been chasing the $$$ his whole career. 275k is a significant overpay. I liked the guy but man he’s like OBJ right now. Reputation built on a couple ridiculous catches but take those away and he’s just average or even less than average honestly.

Vaughters, Woods, Lawson, Willie > Garbutt, Woods, Jake, Willie
If Person is as good as some think then great.
Adams is still around too right? He looked great early and then faded. Maybe a rebound?
-
$275,000 is an overpay for Lawler

M.Silverback reacted to Goalie in 2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season ThreadDude is washed up and dry cleaned tho. I mean what is the point. Easily replaceable and not even good. I don’t get this one. I can justify the Wilson and Gauthier one but this is just mind boggling.

M.Silverback reacted to bearpants in 2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season ThreadDoesn't make me mad (as Mike said)... but just really makes shakes my head.... I do not understand for the life of me what they see in him at this point in his career.... the team was ready to move from him when he was like 28... then he had a few good rotational seasons in him... and he's been just a waste of space for the past 2-3 seasons... I don't get it.... can't convince me a rotation of Lawson and Samson wouldn't be a significant improvement?
-
M.Silverback reacted to Noeller in 2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season ThreadYa... Listen... I defend our management to the death.... But I can't defend this. It's inexcusable. Even if you say that Lawson is going to take the bulk of the reps or whatever....what's the point of even bringing him to camp at this point? It's a waste of roster spot and if there was even a penny of guaranteed money, then it's a waste.

M.Silverback got a reaction from K-Shack in Most irksome moment of GC 2024- Why did they Stray from Brady?For a coach who gives off the old school, hard a$$ vibe to the media, he sure caves when it comes to confronting veterans about playing. ZC should have never went back into the game, whether he wanted to or not. Osh made the decision that a QB who could not grip a ball was a better choice than a healthy, able to scramble, back up QB. A pro also, who was part of the "everyone is a starter" gang. 2023 GC - did the same with Biggie and Schoen. It's baffling and infuriating. He'll survive this, but you have to wonder when it ends for Osh.
