Wooo!!!

[Lincoln Locomotive]

wasn't expecting that TBH....now if we can sign Sheed we are in pretty great shape.....we still have Agudosi signed and Schoen is still under contract!    Price had to be high methinks....hopefully not too high where we suffer because of it

[theaardvark]

Well, I guess Mr. Walters gets the GM of the year now...

Have to wonder what the terms are... I don't think we would bust the budget for him, and 2 years only... so there's that, and pretty sure no guaranteed money allowed.

Yes, we now have the GC favourite, ready to do 3 in 4...  wonder if I can get a bet in before this changes the line


Wow... 3 to 1... that's insane. No meat on the bone with that bet...

Winnipeg Blue Bombers  3.00
BC Lions  4.50
Calgary Stampeders  6.00
Toronto Argonauts  6.00
Hamilton Tiger-Cats  8.00
Montreal Alouettes  8.50
Saskatchewan Roughriders  10.00
Edmonton Elks 16.00


Elks are quite the longshot, wish you could get an against bet on MTL... 8.5 is way wrong... especially with Ham at 8

Defending champs at 6 to 1...

Easy to say who the oddsmakers think won the offseason...

With Lawler and Shoen returning [fingers crossed] the Bombers look set on offense.Lawler signing likely means the chances of Ellingson and Bailey returning are all but done.

Losing Bailey is unfortunate and I'll be sad to see him in other colours than blue and gold. Ellingson, however... Farewell.

Yes, really like the way Bailey plays.

Holy Shite! If Schoen comes back, wow we are friggin loaded!

This is true but who would you rather have Lawler or Bailey?

[TBURGESS]

Wow! Didn't expect that. Wonder what the dollars are?

[KINGCHARLES]

hmmmm i wonder if theres any other potential defensive FA's the Bombers may target....I would like to see Santos-Knox back in Blue, maybe a Chris Edwards or Shaq Richardson from TO, Kameron Kelly from Ham, maybe a Deon Lacey?
I'm just wondering if they bring in anyone to challenge Wilson at WIL and Darby at SAM. Darby can be used at SAM or HB.
of course i forgot about Malik Clements until looking at the roster he was the starting WIL in the Grey Cup.

I'm now thinking the Bombers may not make any big splash signings with Lawler being signed

...bring back Andrew Harris on a retirement deal?

[Pete]

You have to think the happiest guy is Collaros now that we have Demski and Lawler on multi year deals.
We really haven't seen anything yet in terms of $'s with any of the free agent agreements.
I think the only free agent we may have interest in is at dt.(if we have anything left in sms $)

[Sir Blue and Gold]

Hahaha amazing. Just give us the cup right now.

Kidding. But so great. He's such a headache to try and gameplan. I guess one year in Jones' house of horrors was enough.

[dd]

Wow, that is a surprising signing, I hoped it would happen but never thought it would. Excellent. Any word on Bailey??
