There was talk of starting the season a lot earlier to allow for two bye weeks for the teams with the intent of cutting down on injuries, but I do not know if anything came of it.

December 10, 20177 yr Author comment_309477 Has it been mentioned anywhere that Foketi re-signed? I think he'll likely be starting somewhere on the OL next season.

December 11, 20177 yr comment_309491 Hodge had reported that Foketi had re-signed but it was shot down by Darren Cameron. The article was then updated to say he is close to re-signing. Haven't seen any updates since. http://3downnation.com/2017/12/09/bombers-extend-american-offensive-lineman/

December 11, 20177 yr comment_309585 @DarrinBauming #Bombers add three National players, all previously with the team; OL Cody Speller, S Abu Conteh, and WR/long-snapper Brendon Thera-Plamondon.

December 12, 20177 yr comment_309630 Big add...and 2 years too...Basically has offence solidly back in place...now to just get that one impact receiver...can't emphasize how much continuity counts for especially on an offensive line
December 12, 20177 yr Author comment_309631 Jeff Hamilton @jeffkhamilton 1m1 minute ago The Winnipeg Blue Bombers have reached a multi-year extension with all-star OL Stanley Bryant. Bryant received a two-year deal worth upwards of $200,000 per season, including bonuses, according to league sources. He made $180,000 last season. #wfp
December 12, 20177 yr Author comment_309632 I'm honestly a little surprised we brought back both starting tackles. I thought Foketi would be getting one of those jobs.
December 12, 20177 yr comment_309633 Why would you upset the apple cart if you don't have to? With the possibility of Bond being out now you would then have 2 spots to fill on the line, which could lead to problems with cohesion/continuity/consistency right off the back. As it is now we have our entire starting line back from the last 3 games of the year and the play-oof game...so this is good. Also I'm pretty sure Hardrick wouldn't command huge bucks re-upping yet...have another really strong year or two perhaps then

The season will officially be starting a week earlier next season. Mid-June will be the first game. Expect the schedule out MUCH sooner than in years past.

December 12, 20177 yr comment_309650 Its interesting how all of our signings so far besides Jones who is more special teams than D has been O signings. Any day now it should be revealed that Hall is gone.
December 12, 20177 yr comment_309651 This is a huge signing, pun intended. Really happy we're locking up our OL.
December 12, 20177 yr comment_309657 removed post that just stated the obvious! Edited December 12, 20177 yr by Mark F nothing added by my post

December 12, 20177 yr comment_309691 Best signing of the off season so far and yes that includes Medlock.
