Well either way, at least we did something to try and fix the OL. I don't think it will end up panning out as a real improvement, but at least it's a try. Also could mean Swiston's injury is long term.

Or maybe you're "hanging off Elliott's nuts", to use your term

Honestly, Parenteau used to be terrible and I was quite against bringing him in when he was a FA last time, but he really stepped up his game in TO. Immediate improvement at RG for us. He did? So how come he lost his job and hasn't started a game this year?

Hate this trade. Parenteau is brutal.

I don't know that he could ever do enough in half a season to "prove" that he is the guy for the job. As it stands, I like his initiative and we all know he is well-connected around the CIS and CFL. I wouldn't be opposed to keeping him on, but I still would like to see an exhaustive search done. If we can find a guy with successful GM experience or extensive AGM experience, that still might be a safer pick. But is that guy out there, and willing to come here? I guess we'll see.

Act like a child all you want, just don't be surprised when people call you out on it.

I haven't seen anything unclassy about Buck himself, only about his play on the field, which has not been good. If you are in pro sports, then that kind of criticism is valid. No no, nothing unclassy at all. So one post from one poster deserves criticism of the posters "in general". Sometimes you need to look at the source to decide if you need to lend credence and weight to what is posted. Who you allow to post here reflects on you and the entire community here.

Sears is just a little too fragile to be relied upon as a starter, IMO. But if he could stay healthy, wouldn't mind having Markett and Sears on the corners.

If Goltz turns out good then we didn't piss it away. All I know is Elliott stopped showing improvement last season and it looks like every GM in the CFL agrees. No point going back to that well.

so 9 starts is enough to judge whether a guy can be a CFL qb? Get real. What's the correct number?That wasn't necessarily what I meant anyway. It was the comparison between Goltz & Elliott that I was referencing. but even using that comparison! 9 games is enough for Elliott to be thrown on the scrap heap? That's not even a full season! I don't think there is a magic number but it's more than 9 ******* games on a team with plenty of other issues. People are too quick to throw people away here. You better be damn sure your guy is a stud if you're going to spend a full season developing him, otherwise you're just pissing away a season for nothing.

Bisons got robbed

Bishop won 6 games for us, might as well bring him back too

But if he cant play 3 consecutive games then wtf is the point

Desia Dunn won't be, Kohlert and Washington may or may not depending on whether they signed for 2 or 3 years.

I think Henoc deserves a mention as well

Buck Woodson? I hope we use Buck Volny. Buck Woodson needs to get his shot. I feel like he has some good talent that isn't being utilized. Buck Ford is just some guy who won't be here next year. We already know what Buck Volny can do.

I hope we use Woodson

Yeah it does seem kinda fishy.

Where'd you hear this? Official line is that he had another NFL opportunity

Really doesn't seem like the team initiated the release. Just doesn't make sense. Seems kinda like the OL that left us after a day late last season, Dan Barbados or whatever.

Now I understand. I agree, they should just allow players to declare after a certain point.

Aaron Rouse ‏@A757R15m I'd like to Thank the WinnipegBlueBombers Organization/Fans/Town for the Great Hospitality. Good Luck on the season!

Why should that be a consideration? Why would a player leave after junior year if it wasn't to play in the pros? Seriously asking.

This was rumoured a while back, now it's official. No more NCAA Juniors. http://cfl.ca/article/cfl-adjusts-eligibility-rules-for-draft
