Looks like we have some solid depth for a change. Castillo might be a guy we have to stash out on the injured list.

Honestly our Canadian depth is strong enough now where I'll take Ian wild, a standout import on a lower salary who's committed to the Bombers over a guy like Henoc any day of the week.

Westerman is such an underrated signing that Walters doesn't get nearly enough credit for.

I suggested that I preferred Crompton to Nichols last year and I was ripped to shreds. I was definitely wrong on that one. No thanks to straight outta Compton. But I would like to see Cato in our stable.

Lol I don't believe the admins would let someone pretend to be him!

Brazill? Isn't that the guy with a bunch of NFL suspensions who flamed out with the Argos two years ago?

I'd give up a second rounder along with Hurl, Neufeld or Bucknor for him.

It would be really nice to not have a Greg Peach, Kuale or Romby type player this season.

Chris Randle was one of the best DB's in the league pre injury. I just don't understand how a guy like Bucknor could be pushing him for the starting job regardless of passport.

Nah, he's still awful.

Chris randle isn't coming out of the lineup either. I would lean towards starting a second NI receiver in that scenario. I must say, that it feels really good to have Canadian options for a change.

When all of the games were aired a couple of years ago, TSN was reportedly quite happy with the ratings they got so I really don't understand why that hasn't happened since.

Yeah, this would be the equivalent of Alex Vitt retiring.

There was a lot of talk about Smith wanting to come here before the Riders even hired Chris Jones.

Go read pages 28&29 of the off season thread and get back to me.

They have a few insiders but I don't find either one of them to be particularly knowledgeable about football. It's hilarious the way Stronson praised Taman at this time last year only to see him do a complete 180 and call everything negative a GM does "Taman esque".

Before we signed Ryan Smith, I said that he was far more valuable to the Bombers than Dressler and everyone told me he was mediocre and unproven. Looks like people are having a change of heart.

Honestly, I know it's early and injuries will hit but this roster looks really good. I see very few spots where we don't have at least an adequate starter. If we can recruit a decent American RT, DE and especially a safety we're laughing. I really don't want to see Macho Harris make the team and go through another Kuale, Romby, Shell etc situation.

I honestly can't even remember who our third stringer is at the moment. Willy-Nichols and Cato would be a great trio of Quarterbacks.

As if Montreal wasn't already the biggest gongshow in the league... wow just wow. They've really gone downhill.

A better player than a guy like Lemon, with the right passport and for the same amount of money. What more could we ask for?

It also would've been cool if they showed a little bit about the Bombers calling and picking Alex Vitt about being picked by his hometown team.

Serious question cause I don't know. But is it normal for the president to be on something like this?

That's assuming we use a specialty player as our kick returner. It could just as easily be someone like Veltung who starts at receiver for us.

Kohlert is 100% a lock to be a starter.
