Blue Bombers -- 2025/26 Offseason -- Discussion Thread
Tui saw some passes out of that as well. Shorter endzones means bigger bodies will be needed. THIS! LBs have been getting smaller and more agile to help in pass coverage. If they can utilize a big blocker in the passing game as well, it will be a huge benefit. The only question is will they? 11 formation with Brady and a legit rec threat at TE has bully ball written all over it.

25/26 CFL (Non Bombers) Off Season Thread
I like the new playoff format. More football is always welcome. This will immediately give the league more cash which it needs. We complain about the league not doing anything and this is a sure fire way to get more $. Imo it also points to expansion. 1 team not making the playoffs isnt great optics. But I dont think they make this move unless they're expecting another franchise within a decade. It also solves the problem of a 7-11 team hosting a 10-8 team in a playoff game. They've gone from league where 3 teams dont make the playoffs, to 1. That really isnt that big of a deal. 2 home playoff games are possible. Late season games between bottom feeders have some actual meaning now.

I know at one point this off season, the Bengals only had 3 OL on their entire roster. I'm assuming that's likely changed, but needless to say I think Manu will get looks for a bit yet.

Pavia comes off as a kid who grew up playing in those 7v7 games where any play someone makes is grounds for excessive celebrating and **** talking. As in, his ego has been inflated to a point of ridiculousness and if he ever wants to be a pro, that will need to change.

yeah that's right, my timeline is way off lol. I swear 2024 was both 3 years ago and yesterday.... Either way, it's pointless for me to argue on it, so people can think what they want. The point WBB was making stands. Drafting guys that really want to play will be very important as the NIL deals continue.

You don't need to make big money to be making more than your rookie contract. He was down there for 3 years? I think...if that's correct, he's made over 1/2 a mill. Maybe closer to 3/4.

Vaccaro has made significantly more in college than he will likely on his first and second cfl contract.

with a non-football injury designation. I feel like they may bring him back once he's healthy...?

Im not sure why people think Wallace wont be on the OL. Am I mistaken that he played every game he could have last year?

He's made a pretty good situation here from what I understand. He does a lot of work with coaching football too. I would be surprised if he leaves anytime soon.

An all time great!! Looking forward to what he does for amateur football in MB.

Kind of a side bar....but Brady O's new TV show is up and running on CBC Gem. I plan on checking it out at some point this week.

Just to keep beating a dead horse. Birmingham traded their star QB. Elgersma may have had a chance to start had he been able to get a visa.

Anyone ever heard of this Elgersma kid?

Blue Bombers -- 2025/26 Offseason -- Discussion Thread
Considering his playing career & his time as president...is Wade Miller the greatest Blue Bomber of all time? I think there's a legit argument. His impact on the field is....something that leaves you wanting more, sure...but has anyone had a bigger impact to this club off the field?

TSN is likely the answer

So I just saw an add for the Mexican (I think) football league. They are going to be streaming on ESPN2 and Disney+...apparently the game is tonight. So I guess we will see.

So they just swapped MLBs. I think BC probably got the better end of the deal.

Blue Bombers -- 2025/26 Offseason -- Discussion Thread
I think it makes sense for both parties to wait on an extension. Next season the Bombers a losing some salary along that line, its very likely Neuf and Stanley are done for 2027, Eli is a guess imo, especially if they were able to draft a couple strong rookies. If Wallace continues to improve, you have the $$ to lock him up. If he doesnt improve, you can set his $$ at a better number. Its a risk either way, but I dont see the harm in waiting.

I think it was someone we drafted. Not sure though. Wonder what the thoughts of others are on him. Anyone?

"This is kind of my first time really doing it, being able to work this closely with a coordinator,” said Collaros in a media Zoom call from Hamilton where the Canadian Football League is holding a content capture event. “So being able to watch Tommy’s process has been really cool for me." This was from Ed taits story. About Collaros/condell working together again. Found this comment Interesting.

That's not a horrible idea. Kind of like what New york does with the Giants/Jets.

I'm not so sure about this. Maybe if he got here the year he was drafted. But the waiting game he's played, imo...has kind of forced the Bombers to look else where for the future QB. If they find someone or a couple guys who they think are legitimate future starters I don't see why they would wait for Elgersma to develop.

Former Bombers in NFL (and spring leagues) news
weird thing to get your panties in a bunch over...a guy who did nothing in any league. But it's somehow the coaches fault he isn't a bomber? ok....
