  • It's being reported on TSN by Lawless that Simmons wanted to play in Winnipeg because of....Mike O'Shea.

  • The same thing that drives people into radio jobs. 

  • Randle as linebacker is a result of the evolution of CFL offences.  I blame Flutie/Calgary using 6 receiver sets back in the 90's.  Traditional linebackers got exposed as too slow to cover receivers,

@PentonKirk: I'm hearing the #Bombers and Jasper Simmons are in negotiations.

Good decision on Simmons part. Make sense to get this bye week to learn Halls D and play vs the Stamps next week.

Plus it would be a great story line if he help the D stuffed Stamps running game and help the Bombers win.

Im betting he will get #51

If love it if we signed him, but based on the coaching staff's philosophy, I'm not sure where he fits into the roster. He's going to want guaranteed playing time.

Sit Littlejohn and let him learn the CFL game more.
But LittleJohn wasn't really playing much. Simmons will want real playing time, after what happened in Calgary.

 

If I'm Oshea / Hall, I rotate him with Hurl on the middle. I believe he will get his playing time here.

I like this idea.

I think that was the intention for Burnett and Littlejohn too. Only that Burnett stint was cut short because of injury while LIttlejohn is not that familiar yet with the CFL game and Hall's D. At least Simmons knows the  CFL game already and have familiarity with O'shea.

If Simmons ends up signing, good on Walters and Co.

Simmons IMO is a talent, I still don't see the point of the trade (Price for Simmons) on either side though, but that's sports sometimes I suppose.
