Not exactly the typical character guy we go for though. Mr. Bowman, I'd like you to meet your new student. Like you, at his age...he may have a little growing up to do.
May 4, 20187 yr comment_328578 OK to comment on what Hodge said about our pick. Chungh, Goossen, Neufeld, Couture on the active roster, Spooner like on the 2 man reserve. Speller on the PR. If we draft Picket, he's likely on the PR and possibly stolen away. Simonise on the other hand likely makes the AR as our 4 NI receiver.
May 4, 20187 yr comment_328579 just looked at the comments on mbb, regarding simonise performance at the combine. some people were not impressed with him at all. (people were watching the combine and commenting here. ) Edited May 4, 20187 yr by Mark F

Good call, very similar guys. Our next pick 26th over all is ANOTHER gift from the willy trade ? thats got to be the end of it right? holy molly we got a ton out of that deal.
May 4, 20187 yr comment_328581 Simonise will start games for us this year.... maybe not right out of training camp but he'll get there.
May 4, 20187 yr comment_328582 I don't know about the character stuff, testing positive, leaving school before that. All I know is that he'll have to earn any playing time he gets here and that bodes well for us. He's got guys like Harris and Bowman who weren't the brightest bulbs when they were young either to take notes from.

Like marouf last year. I dont expect him to go out and steal a job in TC.

I dont expect to see his best football to date before the first half of the season though. 2 minutes ago, JuranBoldenRules said: I don't know about the character stuff, testing positive, leaving school before that.

He is gonna be looking up the depth chart at wolitarski for a bit.

May 4, 20187 yr comment_328589 I'm telling you, since Hodge has gone to 3rdown. He tries to mask his homerism for the bombers by making odd arguments against some of the moves they make.
May 4, 20187 yr comment_328590 Those 14-15-16 picks are going to have great CFL careers. Wouldn't have minded seeing any of them in Blue and Gold.

Exactly. Life throws curves at everybody (ok, maybe not at Bill Gates) but how we react to setbacks defines us.

We all know the story with simonise. We all know the worries n negatives. But the talent is real. Edited May 4, 20187 yr by wbbfan

May 4, 20187 yr comment_328594 I like the pick. 1st round legit talent... NFL experience... Get the head screwed on and sky is the limit.
May 4, 20187 yr comment_328595 Simonise was likely the BPA. High upside. I like his his size and the fact that he's got a bit of NFL experience. I don't like that he hasn't played a lot of football lately, his drug tests, or his performance at the combine. A swing for the fences in the 2nd round picking a guy that wouldn't exactly be called an O'Shea or Walters kind of player. Will be interesting to see how he makes the conversion to the CFL.

That Simonise faded out of football after failing at the NFL is not a good sign when combined with his seemingly half-hearted performance at the CFL combine.

May 4, 20187 yr comment_328599 Let's play AR for the Bombers, I'd say it looks like: Harris, Chungh, Goossen, Neufeld, Couture, Demski, Wolitarsky, Coates, 4 NI WR, Loffler, Jones, Corney, Ekakittie, Miles, Briggs, Lafrance, Miller, Remple, Gauthier and either Morgan or Branning. If that is the case does it not make sense to take the WR they felt was best?
