2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread
Looks like no money left over in the kitty to re-up players after this season, they didn't have much last year either. Normally Willie would be quick to re-sign after Stanley and Neuf would usually sign 3rd, as it's a quicker process for players who don't use agents. Jake will drag out the process and sign at the last minute.

Ex-Bomber Christophe Normand going to prison for 3 years. "charged with luring a minor for sexual purposes in 2022 and was later found guilty. The victim was a 15-year-old girl who attended the school at which Normand worked as a substitute teacher during the off-season." https://3downnation.com/2024/12/10/former-cfl-player-christophe-normand-sentenced-to-three-months-in-prison/

Sheed goes way over the top, not sure pro players appreciate his raw emotion, probably needs to find a church to preach in.

Interesting, O'Shea said he would welcome him back after recovery, wonder who changed their mind?

Zach said awhile back Neufeld is the player that does the most talking behind closed doors. Apparently Stanley doesn't ever say much.

"Nobody wants Arbuckle" might be an innocuous pickup working with the right OC, he won't light it up but he's smart enough to hold down the fort while Zach's in recovery.

MBT took them 97.5% of the way there through the regular season and the playoffs, Kelly played the final 15 minutes. I'd say he deserves plenty of credit for the 2022 season.

The Argos were on their way to the GC in 2022 well before Kelly showed up.

It looks like Masoli has lost his mojo since he came back the second time and that's bad for a QB that seemed to rely on it a lot to elevate his game. Not convinced he could win even half his games if called upon. Strev. is no longer under contract, I guess he can go back to playing in the NFL because he's been there before and apparently he's an NFL caliber QB if only given a fair chance!

Kornelson somehow spent 6 seasons with the Bisons so he must be pushing 25. I'd be surprised if there is any age restriction for playing in U-Sport as Anthony Bennett was 27 when they drafted him from the Regina Rams.

Some Riderfans have convinced themselves they're on a one year run, they'll deal with the future of the QB position after Harris wins them the Cup. The stars are aligning perfectly over Sask. Oh ****! It's a meteor!

O'Shea is a big softie, once they start crying he promises to bring them back again, just to get them out of his office.

Pete Costanza wouldn't be a bad choice if he's interested in coming back, he's now the owner of 6 GC rings.

He was already in place as their STC, calm, intelligent and an improvement on Ryan Phillips.

I think they limited Pokie's yards the second half of the season using him mostly inside where Woli and Clercius should dwell, almost every pass thrown his way required him to come back to the ball or stop and wait for the reception allowing defenders to congregate. He's quick, twitchy and as slippery as an eel, hit him in stride and there's a good chance he's taking it to the house, which he did multiple times in the first half of the season. With the right QB throwing the ball he should have no problem accounting 1500 yd seasons, if he can stay healthy. Unbox him, turn him loose.

Walters started off as a Natl. scout, with his U-Sport connections no reason he can't continue on with the help of an assistant. In his recent interview Rigmaiden revealed he plans to spend 6 months in Vancouver and the 6 months in his off-season home in Virginia scouting players in the US SE.- 2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread
It wasn't "all check downs", it was carefully executed shots downfield to avoid interceptions with no 50/50 desperation balls thrown. Darvin Adams two best seasons were played with Nichols and LaPo. Shouldn't be necessary, Tony would play for sandwiches. On Ed Tait's podcast Jones said he was paid $180USD per game + Subway coupons playing for the Iowa Barnstormers of the Indoor Football League in 2021.- 2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread
Nope, but probably means they won't be signing Wynton McManis anytime soon. 😄- 2024/2025 CFL (non-Bomber) Off-Season Thread
Walters for now, he's done Natl. scouting before and is really good at it, he'll probably pull someone up from U-Sports to assist him or maybe pick up Eric Deslauriers the Natl. scout the Als dropped a few weeks ago.- 2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread
Dunk says Macsymic will be the Elks new OC, I don't know why there's no talk he'll be interviewing in Wpg. but maybe he declined the offer to interview.- 2024/2025 CFL (non-Bomber) Off-Season Thread
Can't see them picking Benevides, his 3 previous seasons as the Lions HC were uninspiring. - 2024/2025 CFL (non-Bomber) Off-Season Thread
