I was hoping to see a shift in the ratio to get a Cdn at safety, Leggett at WIL and then find a way to get Randle back in the defensive backfield with Adams... Leggett plays well closer to the LOS... While Randle did fine as WIL they need to get him back to the DB spot. That whole moving him from the outside to WIL weakened our backfield.
January 30, 20169 yr comment_180696 Leggett was a little slower than Randle in pass coverage but more aggressive in run stopping, tough call. We need to find better starting nationals then Hurl and Bucknor and they are available in free agency. If they don't make a move to improve on those two, then they don't deserve to keep their jobs.

I get the uncomfortable feeling that a player has a better chance of getting a job here based on his willingness to drink the kool-aid than his talent level. How else to explain the presence of both those players on our roster?
January 30, 20169 yr comment_180702 Laurent/Shologan/Capicotti, we need to land one. It improves our national talent and means we improve our starters. Say we sign Shologan, Neufeld/Gossen/Chung/Kolhert/Westerman/Sholgan and then only one of Bucknor/Hurl starts. Land Andrew Harris and one of the above and we don't have to start either. We really need to land two frontline nationals in free agency. The above mentioned defenders, Harris, a Courtney Stephan, a Jermaine Gabrial, somebody. Despite what MOS says, Hurl is not a starter, Bucknor either.
January 30, 20169 yr comment_180703 Harris would be huge, he fills both the rushing and receiving roles, we could line him up as a receiver and still have Cotton in the back field. Just a couple national free agent signings could make this team so much better, especially now that Marcel is out.

If that guy is bourke, harris or laurent id be over the moon. Adding bourke to our line, man i dont even wanna think of it. I dont think hes going any where.
January 30, 20169 yr comment_180708 Kyle Knox will be the Winnipeg Blue Bombers all star middle linebacker this year - that is just a pure prediction on my part.

That's gold right there. Bold prediction. Well done. **** Nick Moore to Calgary? Shamawd Chambers to Toronto? Looks like...according to Checking Down, CFL style. Josh Bourke? Can't see him Winnipeg bound at all. Justin Capicciotti? In Winnipeg? Only for big big money. 11 more days... Edited January 30, 20169 yr by Mr Dee

January 30, 20169 yr comment_180718 Jovon Johnson said on twitter that he wants to play with Cappiciotti. Which will make things really awkward should Justin sign here
January 30, 20169 yr comment_180721 Bourque does this every contract then re-signs with the Als. Always wonder why he just doesn't get things done a year earlier & be done with it. Chambers to Toronto & Moore to Calgary. Like tampering or what?

He showed huge spurts when healthy despite not being in a very good offense. IF he signs a reasonable deal he could be steal of the off season.
January 30, 20169 yr comment_180725 There really should be hard & fast rules here. Any team that is caught talking to a player under contract should be faced with $100,000 fine & a loss of a draft pick.

Really mankes you wonder, doesn't it? This is a team who may fall to last place next season.

What you read is a sportswriter's and CFL.ca writers opinion on where guys might end up. It's about as deep as, "Andrew Harris from Winnipeg might sign with Winnipeg."
January 31, 20169 yr comment_180728 Offense O-Line: The #1 guy, to me, is Bourke. Sign this guy at any cost. Willy would love him Running Back: Harris would be my dream choice. Next would be Messam. I also like Rainey from BC, speed to burn and can return kicks Receiver: I like Getzlaf because of his passport and size. One of Fuller and/or Stafford to compliment Dressler and to replace Moore Defense D-Line: Shologan, Cummings, Bishop, Capicciotti and Laurent. I'd happily sign any of them at the right price Linebackers: Venable or Sherritt would make nice additions DB: I like this Grymes kid out of Edmonton Kicker: Medlock, please
January 31, 20169 yr comment_180731 Any interest in Keon Raymond? according to the media the Bombers are interested

For the right price though, we can always kick the tires and see if he can earn a spot. I think Hall did a fairly good job with the D last season. The problem was our offense was so anemic the D got exhausted.
January 31, 20169 yr comment_180736 I might be mistaken, but has raymond been having injury issues lately? I would assume he would command a pretty penny too cuz he is good, but we dont need another moore situation but on defense, so I would pass. if we are looking for a db and miss on the ni dl id maybe look at courtney stephen
January 31, 20169 yr comment_180741 No real injury issues with Raymond. He's missed some games over the years but not any more than anyone else. For a 33 year old he's in great shape. Just a wily veteran who would really be an addition on defense. At his age a short term fix but the guy can still play. I imagine Chris Jones will go hard for him.
