May 14, 201411 yr comment_50621 For once, we went to a draft & did our due dilligence & made (what looks like) the best picks possible & truly picked up some assets. Really happy wuith what transpired for the Bombers. Glad they kept #2. Report
May 15, 201411 yr comment_50646 Bombers turned down 5+12 for Goossen. I'm actually glad they did. I'm not in love with the Goossen pick but I certainly would not have wanted 5+12. Coombs or Pruneau would've been my picks at 5 and neither one was there. Evan Gill or Quinn Smith would've been my targets at 12 and neither one was there, going off who WAS available, I'm sure that Briggs would've been the pick at 12 and we got him much later anyways. Still would have been good... at 5, I would have seriously looked at Bailey or Smith... and still picked up Player or Briggs at 12. Mark or Dhillon at 20, Chin or Bastien at 26.... Report
May 15, 201411 yr comment_50651 Think its obvious with the rosters expanding and going to 4 DI's that we are gonna be using an import kicker/punter. Maher for sure. I don't think mark was ever really an option. Report
May 15, 201411 yr comment_50655 The bigger question I have in Hamilton will be if Giovonne Aprille (Johnny April) actually shows up to camp and actually plays. I thought he showed well at our camp a couple of years ago. Report

I'd be surprised if Bucknor is our starting field corner. I am leaning towards Alexander for that spot. Report

May 17, 201411 yr comment_50954 Who do u guys like at safety then if Alexander will be field cb I would take a serious look at Briggs... he's 230 lbs but can prob cut 10lbs... his numbers mirror Edem's from last year. Report

May 17, 201411 yr comment_50961 Who do u guys like at safety then if Alexander will be field cb Newman. Glenn Suitor has said that he thinks Newman is very underrated and should make a good cornerback or safety. Report

May 18, 201411 yr comment_50967 Who do u guys like at safety then if Alexander will be field cb Sears or Washington. Maybe one of the new guys. I thought they wanted that to be a Canadian spot? I always thought it would be Alexander at Safety with Bucknor at Field Corner. But If Alexander is better at Corner hopefully Newman can really step up and be a good safety for us. Report

I just can't see two Canadians in the secondary. I see it as 4 OL, 2 REC, 1 rotating on D Report
May 18, 201411 yr comment_51001 Winners and losers... Great Calgary - Lavertu, Smith and Caron - just keep getting stronger... plus LDT and Thibault gambles Sask - traded out of first round and still ended up with Ainsworth and Bastien, loaded up on OL late BC - Glenn, Player, Chin - filled some holes for sure Good Winnipeg - Safe draft with Goossen and Briggs, waiting on Neufeld now Toronto - Nice move to get Coombs Hamilton - Some nice talent, still targetting LBs and DL Bad Ottawa - Did they have Mack on the phone? Edmonton - Another Cdn receiver??? Trying to see a plan here... I Hard to judge their body of work since they really didn't have much to work with. Aside from him being a Manitoba boy, Evan Gill is a risky pick for a team like Hamilton because he's one of your two top 40 picks and he may not even consider coming to camp this year as he gears up for the NFL next year. Moving up to get Landry confused me for the price they paid and the other guys are wait and see types. I do like Pesek though. Dont know where you got info from but he's made it clear he's coming to camp and wants to play. Report

That would be ideal. But I do recall hearing O'Shea say that they weren't yet in a position to have 4 canucks on the line. Report
