December 5, 20195 yr comment_452051 Just now, JCon said: Yes, yes, I am. Yeah, that whole MOA thing between him, the Riders, the league, and even the PA is some major bullshit. Couldn't the Bombers have, at least in theory, done the same?
December 5, 20195 yr comment_452053 Already reported....sorry...didn't see the prior thread page...my bad. Edited December 5, 20195 yr by kelownabomberfan
December 5, 20195 yr comment_452057 Well at least we saw him for a season. If not for his injury we wouldn't even have seen him in Blue & Gold. In the end it might have worked out for both parties.

December 5, 20195 yr comment_452059 Is this the end of our can-con on our d-line? Kongbo gone, Thomas aging out/potential retirement, Hansen not good enough to carry the load on his own Edited December 5, 20195 yr by Dr Zaius

We got 12 great games out of him this year and if he never plays another snap with the Blue and Gold, I hope it's because he's an NFL millionaire...

December 5, 20195 yr comment_452063 This probably puts an end to the idea of re-signing zach. Keeping the first round could be crucial now considering there are a couple defensive ends that should be available in the first round.

Winnipeg product Mason Bennett is a DE who was ranked 9th in the initial rankings.
December 5, 20195 yr comment_452067 Suck to see him go but this should bode well for the reputation of club and Walters.

December 5, 20195 yr comment_452069 this isn't the first time the Bombers have granted this request. Walters has always allowed this, I believe, and it's absolutely a thing that makes the Bombers an attractive option to FAs...

DE good enough to supplement Willie and Jeffcoat without a major drop-off, they got fairly lucky with Kongbo. It would be good to draft a Natl. Safety or a solid WIL, as it is Exume and Briggs may be able to rotate in more next season.
December 5, 20195 yr comment_452079 Seriously, I would use my first round pick on an OL. It's what works for us.

I was just throwing Bennett's name out there as he was A) local and B) ranked right where the Bombers are picking. The draft pool and it's rankings are always changing so projecting what we might do at this point is 100% speculation... exactly what the off-season is for!
December 5, 20195 yr comment_452091 Kongbo effectiveness made it possible to start Alexander at safety big key in the run to the cup.
