Perkins or Thorne might but we don't usually do that with limited PR spots. Every other team has their own # 4 or # 5 that they have to deal with plus their neg list.

QB's cut after TC rarely land elsewhere unless they have som CFL experience. In the case of the Bombers that might be Wilson. OTOH, we might see our reserve list used as early insurance for Elgersma or Wilson.

It's depends on where they rank after TC and that's all guesswork at the moment. I guess the fate of Wilson decides the pecking order to some degree. He could end up anywhere from # 2 to released outright. I'm not dissing him but, if he isn't moving up then I suspect he's moving out.

i really think we need to start keeping a QB on the PR. Its the most important position on the team and you want your backup to the backup to the backup to be able to step in semi-comfidently

Some really good info and opinions here, I tough but good spot to be in.  The trouble with pre season is that it does show a lot but its also such a different beast than regular.  We shall see how these next gen Qbs fair and will only know more once they get some meaningful live regular season reps.  I hope we are patient in developing our next QB.  Having Zach mentor you is a dream come true imo.

Our guy, DT, doing exactly what we hoped for. Thanks Derek.

Bombers main camp is underway. Early answers to off-season questions:

Tui Eli at centre.
Alijah McGee at corner on Deatrick Nichols side.
Jonathan Moxey at corner on Evan Holm's side.

Tommy Nield was in the slot next to Demski.

Super early, but the Bombers have had both Jarrell Broxton and Kendall Randolph at RT with the top group.
We'll see what any 12 on 12 periods bring.

Unexpected wrinkle (at least in my mind): they have Redha Kramdi at safety and Michael Griffin at dime. Cam Allen is with the 2s.

300s are underway...a tradition unlike any other.
D-line is waxing the O-line in heat #1.

Jovan Santos-Knox went down during 300s and had to be helped off the field.
They were looking at his right ankle/calf.

Pokey Wilson went down after the first 12-on-12 rep. Favouring his right leg. He's continuing in drills

As they've gone into 12 on 12 period it's Broxton at right tackle with the #1 group. Randolph is with the 2s.

I'm not sure what to expect for safety and SAM starters. Moving Kramdi would give Griffin a full time role, so that might not be the worst choice. IMO Kramdi is not best suited to play at safety, so that would be the downside to that combination of changes.

It would be useful to see what imports they line up at safety and who is the best choice if it isn't Allen.


I know it's only day 1 of the main TC but that's an interesting observation of what may come to pass.

I disagree with the notion that we need Terry Wilson on the roster because the other options have no CFL experience.

Terry Wilson's last professional start was in the USFL back in 2021. That's also his only pro start. He has thrown a total of 39 in-game passes in the pros.

Bryce Perkins's last professional start was in 2025 and he's thrown a total of 290 passes in the pros. Last season he also took Michigan to the playoffs and won MVP of that league. He's also just one year older than Wilson.

I don't know that Bryce is the answer, but I'd keep an open mind with this QB room!

I agree. And this is what Walters talked about in the off season. Don't walk into camp with certain guys penciled in because they've been there before. Let the best player play.
