Blue Bombers sign all-star receiver Tim White

225K hard. Max 231K

A little high for me, any guaranteed?

[peg_city]

75K signing bonus, which I guess is the guarantee.

[peg_city]

We still could use another WR. Unless they sign Shoen and stick wilson at WR.

In the new SMS I suppose that's not bad. I'd prefer a bigger receiver but he'll stretch the defence. I wonder if this is the end of Wheatfall and Sterns? I am wondering whether Mack is being considered as well?

I don't think Mack is in the budget now, this was probably our big add to the WR group. The number 4 receiver will likely be Stearns, Wheatfield, or a lower priced guy left towards the later part of FA. I'm hoping we can make a bit of an upgrade at the NAT position over Clercius like Nield.

This is a good signing and strong addition to the WR corps, with the added benefit of him having worked with Condell for a few years previously.

White takes Stern's spot because they are both SBs

WR
SB - White
SB - Wilson
SB - Demski
WR - Clercius

We need another WR. Hard to determine if we have the budget for another high priced WR when we don't know what Wilson's salary is.

We also need another DB, DT, DE and possibly another OG/C....

Like think Sterns will have a decent year if he gets reps, liked what I saw

Wheatfall would take that last spot right? I think all we can afford after that is entry level contracts for WR's, so we better make sure we have solid competition in that department!

Surprised we went this way, but giving Collaros another target with hands is good.  As a deep threat, lets hope Zach has the arm strength to get it to him.  Here's to a season of "dropping dimes"

I think we have enough competition at DB with some of the signings. I really like Cameron McCutcheon to take that spot.
DT we need help. We have 3 really solid Canadians and then Jamal Woods plus some more prospects. I don't hate where we are there.
At DE I think we need to find some real difference makers there. Willie regressed a little last season, and I'd expect a little more this season. Vaughters was okay, but nothing like Jeffcoat to be honest at creating pressure.

I'm not sure if our DL has personnel issues or coaching issues?
We need to scheme our guys into pressure a little better. I think coaches can get more creative for sure.

3 man scheme was used too often. Woods is still a potential free agent as is Vaughters. So DL is a problem at this moment. Whether either is re-signed is a TBD.

We always have new candidates at DB but might go into TC needing both CB's. That isn't my preference but we'll see.

White is a big upgrade over Sterns.

Considering Sterns was probably earning under $120k, I'm not so sure, he gave them good bang for the their buck.  TBH never cared for Tim White, if I listed 10 receivers I'd like to sign from around the league, he wouldn't be on it.
