Posted January 2, 201510 yr comment_101705 @PentonKirk: The #Bombers restructured Nick Moore's contract to give him some bonus money on the 2014 salary cap. No salary change. #CFL
January 2, 201510 yr Author comment_101706 Walters is really clearing a lot of cap space to make some big 2015 free agency splashes.
January 3, 201510 yr comment_101716 Leaving any 2014 cap space available would be dumb GM'ing. We must have had a lot of space considering all the signings this year and the Moore restructure.
January 3, 201510 yr Author comment_101720 A 500k increase once most rosters were set will do that to you.Seems like the Bombers have done way more 2014 re-signings than any other team.
January 3, 201510 yr comment_101721 Maybe but I often feel like that's just us noticing Bomber news more than news on any other team.
January 3, 201510 yr Author comment_101722 Maybe but I often feel like that's just us noticing Bomber news more than news on any other team.Is there a list anywhere of team-by-team 2014 re-signings?
January 3, 201510 yr comment_101723 Maybe but I often feel like that's just us noticing Bomber news more than news on any other team.Is there a list anywhere of team-by-team 2014 re-signings? Not that I'm aware of. I wish.

I wish.Check this out: http://m.cfl.ca/article/2015-free-agent-tracker. Not the best as a lot of our re-signings were guys who weren't FAs.
January 3, 201510 yr comment_101726 Why can't we just give credit where credit is due? Walters is spending the 2014 wisely, not just spending willy-nilly. He and O'Shea must have gone over the roster very carefully and determined who was to extended or re-signed. Seeing as the Wild bunch (Wild, Sears and Washington) were determined to test the NFL waters, they must have gone down the list and parcelled out what they could and to whom they could. Not a bad idea, by any means, as it keeps some important NIs and players 'paid forward' and their locked up contracts in our control for for the next couple of years. Then, we can do the same thing again next off-season, if possible, and just keep this rotation going, in blocks, for years to come. As to who has signed whom, I find the Bombers have extended more contracts than other teams, but Montreal, having just re-signed 4 potential FAs, have now got 7 of their 18 FA guys re-signed. And these guys are clutch guys. Lavarius, Paxson, Venable and Woods. They join Deslauriers, Boulay and Sutton. Impressive.
January 3, 201510 yr comment_101732 Pretty standard stuff but I'll never get tired of having a GM that acts like a real GM

Instead of shitting on someone who's no longer here, I'm gonna just praise Walters for continuing to prove why he's good at this job. Glad we've got him...

Glad we've got him...I love Walters too, but it's a pretty accurate statement
January 3, 201510 yr comment_101759 Great news now when Moore plays 3 games he's a minimal cap hit for 2015
January 3, 201510 yr comment_101761 Moore was very good for those short times when he was actually on the field, but I don't know how much longer we can put up with his parade of owies. We need both performance and durability and I hope Walters and the scouts are planning to bring some heat on Moore in training camp.
January 3, 201510 yr comment_101775 Yeesh a guy is hurt one season and now he's accident prone and better stay healthy?
January 3, 201510 yr comment_101781 Yeesh a guy is hurt one season and now he's accident prone and better stay healthy? The jury is still out, but the guy has yet to play a full season. The closest was 2013.
January 3, 201510 yr comment_101782 So he goes elsewhere & puts up 1200 yards receiving. Let's not give up on the guy yet & hope last season was just bad luck for Moore.
January 3, 201510 yr comment_101784 I believe Nick Moore will have a bounce back year, and that Graig Newman will play like his name, Drew Willy will have an up and down year, Watson will full-fill his half year contract, Vega will step up, January will start the year off right, Ryan Lucas is a ??? and let's hope Bryant and Kuale are shadows (walking out the door shadows), they already are shadows, of their former selves.
January 3, 201510 yr comment_101786 NIck Moore was the focus of opposing defences at the start of 2014. I believe he opened things up for Denmark and Kelley when playing. He gets another year to prove himself IMO.
