July 23, 20186 yr comment_343940 Manziel to Bowman for another Montreal TD....... might be the beginning of something great for Montreal 😜

July 23, 20186 yr comment_343944 time to see Thompkins or Corey Washington get some reps, could be exciting

July 23, 20186 yr comment_343948 I would have preferred they never signed him in the first place but this seems like a reasonable resolution. Rely on the scouts to fill the position and bring on the competition.
July 23, 20186 yr comment_343949 Damn - only an 8th round pick. oh well, he wasn't producing here and I'm excited to see what Washington / Thompkins can do.
July 23, 20186 yr comment_343950 I'd assume Washington gets first crack at it...He looked good in the slot and coming across the middle and up through the flats. I bet in Bowmans first game he gets between 6-8 catches for 100+ yards too If they insert Lankford...I will puke and if I was one of Tompkins and Washington I would actually ask for my release cause of that...we know what Lankford is as a receiver and it's bottom teir Edited July 23, 20186 yr by Booch
July 23, 20186 yr comment_343951 Considering the giving mood Kavis Reed was in yesterday its a bit surprising Kyle Walters wasn't able to get more of a return. (Sort of kidding)

July 23, 20186 yr comment_343953 Or do we go with 3 Canadian receivers? Demski, Wolitarski and then a combo of Petterman and Simonice?
July 23, 20186 yr comment_343955 Honestly we'd be just as good if not better if we starting another Canadian receiver. Perhaps the team looks at starting Simonise and adding Flanders to there roster once he's healthy.

July 23, 20186 yr comment_343958 Montreal had a real need. We didn't seem to be using or didn't seem to need Bowman...so...good move for both teams
July 23, 20186 yr comment_343959 Sounds like it’s cap related. I really wanna see what Kenbrell Thompkins can do. Edited July 23, 20186 yr by Gotmilt
July 23, 20186 yr comment_343960 I would have figured we'd at least come away with Montreal's 2024 first rounder. But, good for Bowman to get a fresh start and Im sure there's a financial reason for the Bombers too.

Somebody like Petermann could likely do a better job in that role as a Canadian.
July 23, 20186 yr comment_343962 I guess all of us guys who said that Bowman wasn't producing were right. Glad we were able to salvage something for this failed project. Time to see what the next man up can do - the shoes aren't that big to fill.
