I thought Bowman retired last year?  Good player but this is a pretty obvious position that Kavis could have used an infusion of younger blood.  I will be literally amazed if Reed is still the Als GM by game 6.

I feel like fighting today. I say 7 games.

I disagree. Bowman is a leader in a locker room that can desperately use one. Montreal needs some semblance of veteran guidance. 

Montreal should really sign Tate they need something at QB other than Freeman

But the problem is that Tate is only good for half a game per season before he gets injured.  And mentally I'm not sure he's quite what you want in a QB and locker room leader.

What do they have to lose at this point.

I think they are better off with Willy than Tate

Makes the Bowman signing even more important. Running out of good import receivers in FA.

 

yup...that early Bowman signing is looking real big now.  I'm happy with what we have on offence now, and we need to focus on defense...I think it is setting up nicely for us to grab who we are targeting

Who are we targeting ? 

I think there is going to be some good value tomorrow with DB's . There is a pile of really good ones out there.

Demski im sure is one. 

Who knows about who else tho. 

Get some help at LB and DB.....and things are looking pretty good....

On offense, I'd think just Demski at this point.

On defense, need a MLB and perhaps another DB. As much as I want Heath to remain a Bomber, I just can't see it happening.

I'm thinking we are going after White..Possibly Purifoy at DB...Dean or Reed at linebacker...most likely Dean and possibly a National D-lineman..and Demski

I dont see a national DL.. I think we go 4 Americans with Trent and Faith backing up. And from what Walters hinted at.. Im not sure MLB is gonna be a free agent thing. I think JSK or one of the younger PR guys get a chance. If we do tho.. I see Dean as a possibility... Valdosta State Alumni like Leggett.

Ill say this.. I heard rumors bombers liked Shorthill at the draft but he was taken b4 their pick again. I see signings like that... Depth signings... Value signings... I dont see any of the "big names"

Odd, I was thinking Ted Laurent would have been a good fit here.

Konar is still out there...

Love to see a haul of Konar, Demski, Shortill, Gacon-Nadon and maybe LaFrance for NI

I wonder how much the signing of Bowman impacted pending free-agent receivers.  Perhaps Winnipeg was seen as an reason to hit free-agency but they may have informed certain agents that they are no longer going to be going after top receivers in free-agency. 

Glad we have Bowman with Daniels back to the Stamps.

If we landed Dean and one of White or Purifoy, I'd be doing the dance of joy all the way from Portage and Main to IGF.
