2026 Main Training Camp - News & Views

It wasn't the money, Nic has told me many times he was coming back to Winnipeg as soon as he was a FA. The money was the bonus. It's the same as BO20, he was never leaving Winnipeg in the off season. 

Well, call me cynical, but I just think we wouldn't have to make their contracts as high as we do if it wasn't about the money.

I'm not blaming them - this is their job - but it's obviously about the money.

I haven't heard if the Bombers have brought in another QB today, or are they waiting for other teams to make there cuts.

If we're going to add a rookie QB then we may as well start from scratch with someone we have on our neg list or saw in tryout camps.

Adding another teams 4th or 5th choice doesn't seem to be of much value.

Lots of interesting comments elsewhere about some possible changes.

1. Smith starting at WIL.
2. Andrews over Sheehan
3. Stuart making the AR.

I wouldn't discount any of those ideas. They all have a basis. IMO I think item 1 and 3 have the most chance. Andrews ends up on the PR to start the season unless we get a trade offer for Sheehan.

One problem with that is we only have 3 globals in total on the roster at the moment. Not even enough to fully use the dedicated PR spots.

Smith was outstanding on teams last year. I would think he gets more time on D this year. He could be ready to start??

I thought Stuart was a great pick, and figured he would make the AR. The kids a swiss army knife.

Andrews over Sheehan. Not sure about that.
