Quote from: Tecno on Today at 02:41:11 AMThe Neuf interview is interesting for his take on Wallace & Viebert.  He speaks highly of Viebert, meaning he could be the new dressed 6th or 7th.  He says he can snap, too.  Things may depend a bit on where we slot Eli, but as it stands right now maybe the plan is to start Eli at C and Viebert is our backup snapper.

I'd still rather see a monster IMP C, but that may be an impossible ask in an IMP's first year up here, given the C's responsibilities.

If it is Eli, I hope someone gets that guy some galaxy-sized balongas to fatten up big time.
I don't understand the need to bulk up Eli. He's extremely mobile at 287lbs 6'3". We'll see if there's any difference in the push of our OL on running plays, but I have a feeling he's going to do well there.

Rambo would be the ideal target in my opinion. Very versatile, never been their WR1 but is a great weapon for MTL.
I also like Shamar Bridges as a more budget option. He took a step back but the Ticats have a loaded WR room! We could use him for a big redzone threat.

Shay and Smith were both high draft picks. I think both of them are very talented.
They are going to get much better without many snaps on defense. If you decided to just start one of them and help them grow into that position, I wouldn't be opposed.
I remember that people weren't thrilled when Kramdi started, and it took him a little bit to make an impact, but now I'd say he's one of our most impactful players on defense!

Blue Bombers Re-Sign Future Hall of Famer Stanley Bryant

WINNIPEG, MB., January 26, 2026 – The Winnipeg Blue Bombers today announce the club has agreed to terms on a one-year contract with future hall of fame left tackle, Stanley Bryant. He was scheduled to become a free agent in February.

Bryant (6-4, 313; East Carolina University; born: May 7, 1986, in Goldsboro, NC) returns in 2026 for his 11th season with the Blue Bombers and 16th in the Canadian Football League, including his days with the Calgary Stampeders (2010-14).

He is the most-decorated offensive lineman in CFL history, having been saluted as the league's Most Outstanding Offensive Lineman four times (2017, 2018, 2021, 2022).

Bryant is coming off a 2025 campaign in which he was again a steady and commanding presence at left tackle, helping running back Brady Oliveira rush for over 1,000 yards for a fourth straight season as the Blue Bombers offence finished second in the league in rushing yardage per game (124.1).

Bryant was also again named the Blue Bombers Most Outstanding Offensive Lineman in 2025 for the seventh time (2017-22, 2024-25).

Now 39, Bryant has suited up for 234 regular-season games during his CFL career, including 200 with the Blue Bombers – sixth most in franchise history – and has started every one of them. He is a three-time Grey Cup champion, having won in 2019 and 2021 with the Blue Bombers and in 2014 with the Stampeders.

Quote from: TBURGESS on Today at 03:20:17 PMTo be expected. To everyone who thinks this is a great signing, I don't want to see you complaining when he gets beat by younger faster players.

Got to wait and see how he handles things. Just not sure this is a good signing but would love to be surprised.

Good Morning All! Now that I have officially retired and have decided to stay away from the "Excited States" I have time to ask some silly questions. Last night I had to watch an old episode of "Castle" - Daughter made me watch it and one of the characters was named Westside Wally. Does anyone remember a Bomber fan that use to post on this site or one of the older sites by that handle? I do go back a few years (Total CFL, Mookie's old site etc.)

Does anyone know if Colin Unger (Mookie) still posts? What happened to our old friend Nasty Nate?

Retirement is really nice!

BC offered Harris the same as we did. Harris chose us.

I'd rather get rid of players past their prime too early than too late anyway.
