Free Agency - February 8th, 2022 - Blue Bomber Discusssion/Signings

[theaardvark]

AH missed half a year, did he get a 1/2 year contract. He will go on the IR and will be paid just like any other injured player.

The winky smiley face was an indicator that this was meant to be taken humourously... (or humorously for you Wordle people)

Wonder what's taking us so long to sign mmmbop.

....wut?

Come on Jessie, Hansen (mmmbop). My daughter us to play that song 10 times a day.

On another note with all the restriction going away, ELi should be high on the bombers list.

[ModAdmin]

I think Hanson was a singing group and MMMbop was one of their albums.  Probably code for Thiadric.

Whew! Right over my head. And I had that album growing up (Even ModAdmin got the reference).

Hanson is currently playing in the Polish football league from whence he came. I'm sure he'll sign once he wins them another championship.

I am wondering what the PFL pays a player.

Several rubles a game, I'm sure.

[Pigskin]

Well that didn't take long. He has CFL experience and is very mobile. Can run the shortage O.

[M.O.A.B.]

I expected that (signing of Prukop).

But I still expect the Bombers to bring in "more experienced" QB if someone becomes available.

[TBURGESS]

Better than nothing I guess.

Depending on the spend, probably one of the best signings this year.  Chris Jones has handed us a top WR and a backup QB.  I'm liking his style... for us.  

Sounds like a perfect fit, really...

I can't see needing a "more experienced" QB... he has dressed for 49 games in the CFL... 27 carries last year, and 26 passes in 8 games... I think he is the perfect amount of experience and youth... won't please either camp (the "More experience" or the "more potential" sides) which means its perfect  


"Prukop began his collegiate career at Montana State, transferring to Oregon after graduating in 2016 to pursue his Masters in non-profit management."   Non Profit Management?  Really?  I guess that's a lockerroom fit...
