Don't Look Back - 2022/2023 Bombers Off Season
Also interesting: Ed Tait @EdTaitWFC CFL has set Nov. 17 as the date for the '25 Grey Cup, but that could change. Randy Ambrosie: “We have other things going on; one of them is expansion which is a huge priority for us. We know if we can land our expansion strategy that could advance Grey Cup by a couple of weeks.”

The Trade Thread
In theory its winning that helps. If the Jets can become an upper echelon team that seems to always win(see Lightning/Bruins), then it should get easier to sign players. In theory. But itll never be New York Rangers level easy for the Jets.

The Trade Thread
Im all for fresh blood, but do you honestly think another GM would all of a sudden have free agents lining up to sign here and players waving no trade clauses?? Its Winnipeg. Our plan will have to forever be draft + develop and try to retain our players, while adding bit pieces through trades/signings. No franchise altering players will be signing or getting traded to Winnipeg. Its our sad reality.

The Trade Thread
Its come out that Arizona valued Ottawa's likely higher 1st round pick this year above all else. More then one team offered two 1st's +. Im glad Chevy said no to what would have been a massive overpayment to sway Arizona.

The Trade Thread
Rather reality.

The Trade Thread
There isnt a GM out there that would be able to do a much better job than Chevy. His hands are perpetually tied. Winnipeg will forever be the last place players want to sign with/be traded to. I cant imagine how many times he's heard "thanks, but not interested in signing there" and "youre on his no trade list". I think he's done as best a job as any GM in Winnipeg can do.

Don't Look Back - 2022/2023 Bombers Off Season
We are definitely an older defense so injuries are a concern, but we did have some bad injury luck last year and still led the league in points against. We managed that with important guys suffering season ending injuries and/or playing hurt for much of the year. Our linebacking corps was generally a mess for most of the year with the season ending injury to Wilson, the so-so play of Clements(and then he got hurt for a good chunk of the year), and Bighill playing hurt and dropping back more to make up for loss of Alexander. With Wilson + Bighill healthy and Darby back i expect much better play from our ‘backers. The d-line for sure suffered from the Stove effect. That guy is a beast and diference maker making everyone around him better. Sayles had his moments but was overpaid in free agency for what he brings IMO. He did leave a hole however. I like Ricky Walker so we’ll see what he can do in the competition with other DT’s Walters will surely bring to camp. He did find Stove so we’ll see what he can find. The d-line will for sure be a question mark going into training camp. The two Jeffs are still elite ends but are into their 30’s so keeping them fresh and healthy should be a priority. Walters didnt add anyone during free agency so itll be interesting to see what unfolds. Maybe Kongbo comes back?? The secondary i have high hopes for, especially with Alexander healthy to start the season. Nichols is elite and Houston was excellent before his injury. I liked what i saw from Lawrence in his brief time here, and Parker looked good for a rookie. Rose needs to find his game and have a better year. If he can get back to even 75% of his 2019 self we’ll be looking good. My glass is generally half empty and obviously injuries can derail any season, but with some better luck i think our D will be just fine. And even if they take a step back who cares!?!? Were gonna be putting up 50 a game with our insane Tecmo Bowl like offense!!
