Goossen and 2 others were the only ones who started any games. Everyone knows that its the 1st round and the 2nd that count in the CFL draft... including all OL that were picked is, again, a bogus stat. If you want to go that route, then include Quinn Everett... 'The bombers had an outstanding 50% success rate while drafting OL in the 2014 draft.... ' To pat yourself on the back for a successful 2nd overall pick is something only the bombers would do... and rightfully so after IMWT.

March 1, 20169 yr comment_186411 This is the email I received in response to my enquiry as to why this blog was mis-credited. Hello Mr Dee Thank you for your email .. The article was written by Darren Cameron not Rheanne .. she was the person who posted the article. When they changed the website it automatically records the poster not the person who wrote the article. This is something the Communications Team will be more aware of going forward. Thanks for your support and have a great day.. Carol I have a good feeling Carol did write this response..

March 2, 20169 yr comment_186417 I think we have to admit this is the first year in quite a few where we really attempted and succeeded beyond the expectation of most in getting players who could make us a competitive team. I also realize the blog is going out to the choir but there is some substance there. I would hope we win every game but would be happy if we make every game something we can feel good about.
March 2, 20169 yr comment_186431 I'm not sure this year is any different than the last couple of Free Agent seasons. Working mostly from memory (Which I admit isn't what it used to be, so feel free to update)... Players taken in FA or traded for in FA and signed: 2015 D Adams I Brown M Dile T Cronk S Hurl S Bryant D Picard J Westerman - NFL reject, not exactly a FA 7 Players 2014 J Feoli-Gudino M Bucknor D Willy N Moore C Randle D Alexander B Banks 7 Players In both off seasons we signed a lot of free agents who were big upgrades and wanted by other teams, but it didn't help much in the win column. We did it again this year and look better on paper again. The real question is will that mean more wins this year.
March 3, 20169 yr comment_186592 One of our big problems in the past few years has been our inability to protect our QB and as a result lost him for most of the year. our OL's could play a foursome but that is about it. somehow we have to beef that up. Given some time Willy has found his receivers.

March 4, 20169 yr comment_186759 Nope. Totally forgot about that guy. B banks to me is brad or brandon banks.

Given some time Willy has found his receivers. It isn't all on the O-line, IMHO. Willy doesn't use his feet enough and often holds the ball too long. You cannot expect a lineman to hold his block for much more than five seconds. You also have to have an OC that can compensate when a line is having issues. There are always things you can do to help a line out.
March 5, 20169 yr comment_186861 One of the other best assets of a good QB is having a quick release. It isn't just about how long you physically hold the ball it is about your ability to get the ball out of your hand quickly....and not with a slower and more deliberate delivery. I'm not convinced Willy has a quick release.
March 7, 20169 yr comment_187163 Hard to say.... Last year, we didn't have a coherent game plan, for any QB, regardless of release.......
March 7, 20169 yr comment_187188 Even with a quick release it's hard to get rid of the ball when they are on you in .8 seconds. New schemes for the o-line and offence I really hope will help address this issue. Edited March 7, 20169 yr by IC Khari
March 7, 20169 yr comment_187191 Not sure if o linemen are getting schooled in .8 sec that it is necessarily a scheme issue. In .8 sec you have whiffed on a block and been schooled one on one.
