February 13, 20178 yr comment_249067 Just now, Mike said: The player has a choice in the matter too, you know. Balderdash! But, was Bennett offered a contract/opportunity with the Bombers? Presuming that they really wanted him, the Bombers could have gotten a deal done, no?

If I was trying to explain why (without knowing the truth) Bennett would sign in Saskatchewan instead of here, it's pretty easy to make the point that he's got a more direct route to more reps in Saskatchewan.

And that makes sense from his point of view. But would that really be a surprise to the Bombers? Were they really surprised that he left for Saskatchewan, given an opportunity?

Saskatchewan didn't steal Bennett. He was a free agent.

Your logic works only if Bennett thought to himself "I need to be a starting QB in the worst way"

February 16, 20178 yr comment_250153 He's back... Welcome, on your return Will. Or MAC, or whatever you're called.
February 16, 20178 yr comment_250154 see when you act in good faith and release a guy mid season to take advantage of an NFL opportunity, good chance when they done with that they will come back to you, more than likely better too
February 16, 20178 yr comment_250155 Was just looking at brown dude looks like a monster. 6'2 4 years in college 45 games 22 starts (imagine he played nickel a good bit with his size, tackles and starts-games player) 123 tackles, 4.5 TFL, 6 picks, 1 forced fumble 3 fumble recoveries, oh and 28 pass knock downs. 28 KDs in 22 starts / 45 games is pretty crazy. http://www.baltimoreravens.com/team/roster/Sam-Brown/f0ce2680-f066-4b85-aeea-e5448c7defe6
February 16, 20178 yr comment_250156 Didn't realize he actually played 11 games as a backup with Hamilton last year. Glad he's in with us now, he's got a good shot at being a starter here. Just needs an opportunity.

But I guess we were kind of full on the LB spot then. Glad he's here now though!!

Glad he's back!!! http://www.nfl.com/draft/2014/profiles/will-smith?id=2550161 At very worst he replaces burnett as a back up di and teams monster. Similar high up side but much more of a natural LBer and MLBer at that. Just what the Doctor ordered. Really like this move a lot. Need some more young guys to push him in camp but its a great low risk high reward move. One more DT and our front 7 are dramatically improved.
February 16, 20178 yr Author comment_250160 It's almost.....almost.......as if The Trinity knows what's up.........
February 16, 20178 yr comment_250162 http://www.bluebombers.com/2017/02/16/bombers-re-sign-lb-sam-hurl/ And hurl is official.
February 16, 20178 yr comment_250175 Didn't see that one coming... guess the price was right. Some people can step back from the ledge about Davis being #2 now.

Pffft I won't be pleased until we bring in an out of shape 34 yr old QB with no CFL experience.....'cuz, winning.
February 16, 20178 yr comment_250182 I don't hate the LeFevour signing. Not my favourite backup QB but better than no competition at TC. Edited February 16, 20178 yr by TBURGESS Changed like to don't hate

Im a bit more fond of it i guess. The difference in quality among the legit no2s available is pretty thin imop. This really seems to be the bomber prototype for a QB. Good size, strong, athletic, comes from a spread offense.

February 16, 20178 yr Author comment_250194 I'm no Fever Fan, and I still want Davis to be the #2, but I have faith he'll win the gig in camp...
