The CFL player awards will be announced soon. Heres my Bomber choices
Top O lineman- Bryant
Top defensive player-Jefferson
Top rookie-Bennett
Top Special teams-Castillo
Top Canadian-Olivera
Most outstanding-Olivera

Bombers don't have a lot of outstanding rookies this year so I went with Bennett. Olivera has the best chance of being the league rep as top Canadian. Olivera's closest rival for outstanding player may be on his own team in Colleros who I would have no problem with if he is chosen over Olivera.

Sir Blue and Gold

I would go:

Most Outstanding Player: Zach Collaros
Most Outstanding Defensive Player: Deatrick Nichols
Most Outstanding Canadian Player: Brady Oliveira
Most Outstanding Offensive Lineman: Chris Kolankowski
Most Outstanding Special Teams Player: Janarion Grant
Most Outstanding Rookie: Anthony Bennett

3rdand1.5

My 2 cents

MOP Zach-only as Bray would have no chance against Kelly
MODP Jefferson
MOC Brady
MOOL Kolakowski
MOST Grant
MOR Sheehan....slim pickings this year

If based on strategy, I don?t think Zach beats Kelly either. May as well go with what?s merited and have Brady for both MOP and MOC.

I got this as well. But I choose Collaros over Brady outright.

Brady deserves a medal for his work this year.  He went from good to best very quickly.

What kind of metal?

I took Castillo over Grant mainly because Grant missed too much time. Grant had been outstanding when he has played.

Good pick, never thought of Sergio, he gets my vote too.

Top O lineman- Bryant
Top defensive player-Houston
Top rookie-Bennett
Top Special teams-Castillo
Top Canadian -Olivera
Most outstanding -Collaros


How do you pick against Bryant?  I'd like to nominate the whole line, though. 
Even with his injuried, Houson will win the INT title, and had a lot of plays made
With no real rookie starters, sure, Bennett
With no Miller, there isn't really a ST standout on a coverage side, and Castillo has had a very good year.
No doubt Brady is the most outstanding Canadain, and could vie for MOP, but I'm not sure anyone votes him for both, so almost a consolation prize
Without Collaros, we are not WDC so there's that... only a QB can beat a QB... He will win the west, Kelly takes it, though.
Unabashed positron.  Blue koolaid in my fridge.  I wear my blue sunglasses at night.  Homer, d'oh.
