He was already under contract for 2 yrs, he just took about 40k less in 24, so it did give stamps a break

You' d think that Adams would have had enough of team friendly deals given how he got shown the door in BC despite his efforts You could argue that Collaros is the most overpaid qb in the league but I doubt if he does this

MBT, Fajardo etc. aren't even on our radar, with what we are paying Collaros no way can we afford either of those two and neither will sign elsewhere for under 250k. As far as mbt goes he would be smart to just wait til a starter goes down and he'd likely be paid a lot more.

I could see him in Edmonton

2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread
During training camp we bring in a ton of dbs to work with qbs and recievers a number of which have little chance of making it. Perhaps these fall into that category. Rather than bring in all new these players at least know the drill and scouts can focus in on fewer but more talented options

i agree about Tre even if hes not going as a clear 1, theres a number of teams that have a lot less money tied up in starting qb than us and can afford him. Montreal if they cut Fajardo, Hamilton, Ottawa, and even Sask likely, I wouldnt be surprised if both Fords end up in Hamilton which is close to home. I do rhink we may sign Holm prior to free agency as we likely wont wait on Tyrell

Neufeld wasn't even close to being a reason that we lost the grey cup. The offensive line was fine that game

Can see that, but he'd have that conversation with the agent before discussing it in a presser

Did you expect him to say we're moving on from those players at this press conference? A lot of negotiations still have to take place

Just wondering.. if buck goes what about making Zac the offensive coordinator. He gets a chance to become a coach right away, (and we have an emergency backup) The we go after the qb of our choice. I know it would be a substantial one yr paycut but it could certainly give his future a big headstart.

thats more an indication of our practice roster than anything

Bailey was cut from Toronto and couldn't make the active roster in Ottawa. Not having Bailey was not a factor Re signing exbombers hasnt been an issue ie Lofton and Taylor

Its frustrating to see us lose 3 grey cups in a row with many of the same issues but how many other coaches could have got us there 5 x in a row? After the western final we were applauding the coaches. To me this loss and maybe another one was on Collaros execution

3 turds plus crappy honker. Long winter edition.

Nope i just don't like him- 3 turds plus crappy honker. Long winter edition.
Thats what's so upsetting and it wasn't the only dumbness on display by the Bombers the above example was closely followed by not using Olivera in the red zone, and having Wilson come in cold and with so little game experience try to throw exclusively. and again with Olivera having run the ball on second down with more than 3 yds to go very succsessfully yet not trying it again all game. and followed yet again with no half time adjustments to an offence that was clearly not working in the first half Honestly we looked like a that playing with desperation and panic. The amount of penalties we took was inexcusable O'Shea said after the game that we didn't run the wall because the argos defence was set up to take it away yet Brady had a 7.6 yd average.. And with Demski hurt we didn't have anyone else to misdirect the run game.. Our lack of creativity to get the most outstanding player the ball is yet another example of dumbness. I was never a fan of Dinwiddie but he truly made our coaches look like rookies. (a lot of that was self inflected too)- 2024 CFL Awards night
That awards show was a fitting sendoff to Ambrosias last year as commish - poorly planned and worse executed, from tsns failed attempts of humor ( the milt , blm skit was embarrassing) to presenters no one's heard of promoting own agendas it wasn't pretty. The only saving grace was Brady winning two awards and Bighill winning his. By the way this isnt the thread to be putting Biggy down but should be to celebrate one of his great accomplishments- GREY CUP Thread
Offensively I hope they utilize Clercius as TE , and outlet for Zac. He could have a big game. Argos will have a lb tracking Brady even if hes blocking. Defensively where we could have gone 9 dbs we likely keep Jones or wilson keying on Carey. Argos will likely deploy Mcmahon and Carey together on numerous sets.- GREY CUP Thread
We want to press early, they have to be wondering what success they have without Kelly. Dont give them momentum. A big key is limit turnovers, thats killed us in the past Hang on to ball And lastly be aware when grant is on field.- Riders at Bombers WF Chat
I cant blame mueller to much, going in a lot of us felt the game plan should be to use Ouelette and Armstead and establish a strong run game.Instead it seemed to take Harris out of his rhythm . This is one of the few games we've game planned for an opponent rather than doing what we always do. kudos to Younger. How he rotated in Wilson and Taylor was very good as weil. They should be morey ready for next sunday- Riders at Bombers WF Chat
What is perplexing is we've had all year to find a db we can trust as backup and we have to add a 36 year old retread for the western final. Our practice roster is not good- Riders at Bombers WF Chat
Bighill and Schoen last year were gtd. They hadn't practiced unless it was the last day.For wilson he may go in and play limited reps much like Ayers would. Alexander needs to be able to properly tackle, Ouellette and Armstead arent going down easily, 1 1/2 Arms aren't going to do it- Dynasty or Disappointment
Far as I can see we have plenty of posters who like to express their opinion and see who agrees/disagrees. If you are simply posting to show how smart you are the its futile. At least Zac tries to put out his views with items to support them and welcomes other opinions. To simply put down another poster is something that you usually see on the rider forum - The positivity thread (don’t look back in anger)
