  1. Put me down as someone who would be very excited if our edge rush rotation this year consisted of Willie, Kongbo, Mason Bennett and whatever American shows off in camp
  2. Getting to the Grey Cup has nothing to do with how we played in the Grey Cup. We were not lucky to get there at all, we earned it. We were lucky to win.
  3. Jeffcoat is the exact kind of piece I’m glad we’re moving on from That’s a super weird take lol
  4. Why would we be surprised if Walker comes back? He’s been good
  5. NDSU, not UND. Played with Trey Lance and Christian Watson.
  6. Did we talk about signing LB Mike Ayers and DB Marquise Bridges ?
  7. 😂 I know, it’s just interesting to argue over exact dollars and cents when we don’t really even know what they mean. Let’s see a big Friday signing and argue about that instead. Fingers crossed.
  8. Why are we all debating imaginary numbers with imaginary context?
  9. Anyone who thinks JA is the answer should see how Tony Pollard did for Dallas this year
  10. You probably missed a whole episode of Matlock typing that all up, you old fart (just kidding)
  11. And yeah, just to touch on something earlier - the people who are mad at Brady are nuts. Do you guys go to your jobs and work for less money voluntarily? Of course the guy wants to maximize his earnings. Just like literally the entire world. Get over it.
  12. The thing people need to remember about a Canadian running back is that they are so few and far between that committing to one as a ratio breaker means you also have to invest the capital in a capable backup as well. Johnny Augustine made 90k last year, probably close to the going rate unless you find a good rookie. Is there a team that is going to invest 300k into a RB1/2? If there is, I hope it’s not us. (obviously you could flip your ratio or dress more than the required amount of Canadians but there’s a cost to that as well)
  13. Brady may learn that there isn’t as much money to be out there as he thinks. RB isn’t much different here compared to the NFL with regards to how replaceable they are. Wearing a Winnipeg jersey has just as much value to Brady as it does to the Bombers and I’m sure his agent will remind him of that. All his charitable causes get a big boost in awareness and visibility because he’s in town.
  14. None of your math makes sense either. people forget the roster spot has to be filled anyways
  15. Not surprised at all that Bryant took a pay cut. They’re letting the players spin this as a sign of goodwill but the reality is he earned a pay cut.
  16. Are you a robot
  17. Why would you think it would piss other players off?
  18. I’m optimistic that we’re not going to be bringing back ALL the vets. A welcome step in the right direction would be to be saying goodbye to Bighill but I would imagine that isn’t likely, considering he almost definitely had a roster bonus on the 15th.
  19. I would imagine Lawler restructuring (which was filed with the league two days ago, only announced today) will lead to a move more consequential than Stanley coming back. I would assume we’ll hear Schoen is back before the end of the week.
  20. I think going into the season with an aging QB who hasn’t looked good in fall weather in four years is gambling at the QB position as much as anything.
  21. Streveler in negotiations to return to the CFL and the Bombers appear to be the front runners, as per Jeff Hamilton
  22. JC Abbott has never met a Canadian prospect whose farts he didn’t love the smell of
