I'm not sure why anyone would bother getting upset about this... he's just making guesses... outside of the re-signings, I'm sure most of these will be wrong anyways...

Exactly right... if you listen to Milt he always says things like “my bombers” and “Winnipeg, the greatest city in Canada”... but he’s paid to be impartial... if you work for tsn you’re contractually obligated to lick the nuts of the leafs and riders... I’m glad Milt isn’t a ridiculously unabashed homer...

Randle was acquired via trade... but it’s still a credit to our scouting since Calgary wasn’t utilizing him and we saw him as a shut down corner...

Is this a prediction for the year of the next riders grey cup?... seems accurate

Let's be honest... his hatred of the Riders is the real reason we all love @Zontar...

His rookie deal would be at least two, possibly three, years... someone else posted (sorry I forget who it was) that they met Oliveira and he said he’s healthy and ready to go...

True... and these players were all CFL superstars...

That's true to an extent... but we've never really seen a true NFL superstar, in their prime, compete in the CFL... Most guys who have come to the CFL and failed are not, and probably never were, at the level of the list that I quoted...

In my opinion (or I’m just guessing) this isn’t really the intent of this question... of course the superstars in the nfl would be superstars in the cfl... I think he was wondering what secondary/mid level guys would excel in the cfl... a few guys off the top of my head... bills Qb Josh Allen (and he may still become an nfl superstar) would be dominant in the cfl... NYJ DE/LB CJ Mosley... Steelers rb/wr Jaylen Samuels... even Taysom Hill who has been discussed here a lot as the nfl streveler... mostly guys that are extremely athletic and versatile...

I actually recall most people around here saying that Edm got worse last off season... going from Reilly to Harris...

I'd agree with you but also add that that was the toughest game for the Bombers... that was probably more just the Bombers being off than the riders being great... but still, this Bombers team absolutely dismantled Calgary and Hamilton and struggled against Sask...

I hope we can keep our young* defensive coaching staff intact... *Glenn Young and Jordan Younger

I was never worried... but I’m glad it’s officially out of the way... now let’s get some players re-upped...

This is a fairly random suggestion... has he ever coached at any level?... not saying he’d be no good, just wondering why you mention him...

It's really too bad... it would've been nice to see what Willy 5 years ago could do on this current team...

I was thinking the same thing today... I clicked on his twitter profile to see what he looks like and it's just a picture of the bombers logo...

That's a pretty solid defensive staff... who was their OC last year?

But who do we trust?... some guy in Edmonton that no one has ever heard of... or one of the most respected broadcasters in CFL history...hmmm this one is a real thinker...

Congrats to LaPo... I’m oddly torn about this... prior to the playoffs I wouldn’t welcomed a change at OC... but after winning the cup, I would’ve been happy bringing the whole gang back...

especially with the depth this roster currently has... BPA is the way to go...

extremely disappointing... I think he would've been a league all-star next year... but best of luck to him... We got 12 great games out of him this year and if he never plays another snap with the Blue and Gold, I hope it's because he's an NFL millionaire...

I know this is all just speculation... but Bob Irving stated explicitly that the bombers have no interest in James franklin...

To me, the biggest difference between Zach and Matt is Zach’s ability to recognize and evade pressure and extend plays... there were more than a few plays that Zach completes where Matt would’ve taken a sack or thrown the back away... otherwise they’re very similar... Is the switch to Zach the thing that put this team over the top from contender to champion?... possibly... would this team still have won it all with a fully healthy Matt Nichols?... also quite possible... seems pointless to beat it to death...

I completely agree... except this is peak Nichols... the real question is how often will he play like this?... unfortunately the answer is not too often...

It should be pointed out that Chris Van Zyl is a very good OL... Bryant is just better
