March 31, 201510 yr comment_113817 This all looks like a smoke screen...pumping up Demski so that if some other team really wants him they'll have to trade up to draft him. If the interest is legit and they are considering him at 2, I'd be okay with that as well.
April 1, 201510 yr comment_113819 Some people actual think that the PR , media dept care what you think? Clearly some have an over inflated opinion of their own opinions. The media dept is there to service the masses not the would be elite of fan forums. Put people would rather feast on it and the print media and complain about it when the simple solution is to not read it. Clearly they are very good at getting people to read it.

I've said all along that I have a hard time believing Kyle Walters would be this transparent about their draft plans...

April 1, 201510 yr comment_113855 I have very little insight into drafting but if I had a vote I would take the hometown kid at 2 and the best OL at the next two picks.
April 1, 201510 yr Author comment_113857 My prediction for the Bombers draft: 1. Chungh 2. Richards/Hardy 3. Ackie/Tennent Names could change slightly, but I feel the strategy will be: 1. Best OL 2. Best WR available 3. Best defensive player available; preferably a DL.
April 1, 201510 yr comment_113858 If I had to guess today? I'd say best case scenario is they flip 11 + something (maybe a pick next year?) to move up into the 5-8 range and then go 1. Best OL (I'd take Chungh at this point) Acquired pick Demski 15. Nic Shortill or Shaq M-L I feel like they're going to wait until the 30s to go after some defensive guys where they could look at guys like Abdesmad (depending on how his recovery goes) So much depth in this draft class RB - Varga, Murray-Lawrence, Rea, Campbell, Normand REC - Demski, Durant, Richards, Harty, Norzil, Johnson, Abankwah OL - Mateas, Boyko, Chungh, McEwen, Allison, Groulx, Ruby, Bodanis, Lavoie DL - Waud, Forde, Tennant, Mrabure-Ajufo, Lattanzio, Connop, Blanc, Abdesmad LB - Shortill, Ackie, Archambeault, Konar, Johnson, Omara, Smith DB - Janke, Adjei, Campbell That we could end up acquiring 5 of these guys blows my mind.

April 2, 201510 yr comment_113938 Could we perhaps move the 15th for two of Calgary's third rounders? Would this be a sound decision?
April 2, 201510 yr comment_113942 I'd just stick with our three top 15 picks. We have decent NI depth at MLB/S/CB, four okay REC and 6-7 OL. Almost 30 NIs on roster and about 10-12 that should be upgraded. DL, REC, maybe RB/FB is probably our biggest need right now. 2. Waud, Demski (either of these guys step in and play this year) 11 and 15. Ruby, Campbell, Tennant, Murray-Lawrence, Abankwah 33 and 38. Rea, Bodanis, Abdesmad, Norzil, Lattanzio That's actually a nice draft.
April 3, 201510 yr comment_114038 Mulumba or Bilikudi could be traded too. Any news on results of drug tests at the combine yet?
April 3, 201510 yr comment_114042 Mulumba or Bilikudi could be traded too. Any news on results of drug tests at the combine yet? What do you think either would net in return?
April 3, 201510 yr comment_114043 Might be able to package Morley to Edmonton or Ticats... he is a proven Centre. Might have more value than we give him credit. Morley and 11 for 8 and 20
April 3, 201510 yr comment_114044 Might be able to package Morley to Edmonton or Ticats... he is a proven Centre. Might have more value than we give him credit. Morley and 11 for 8 and 20 I don't think we can trade a player that every news source says we'll be releasing.
April 3, 201510 yr Author comment_114045 Might be able to package Morley to Edmonton or Ticats... he is a proven Centre. Might have more value than we give him credit. Morley and 11 for 8 and 20 Morley has pretty deep roots here in Winnipeg. Wouldn't surprise he if he retired if we traded him.
April 3, 201510 yr comment_114050 Haven't released him yet... and he's better than Sorenson, K-Groh and Baboulas for sure. Hmm, make $150k for a couple more seasons or retire...
