1st & 10 | The Blue Bombers Pending Free Agent List

[bunker]

true enough, since when we had Jefferson and Sayles we've not been able to replace impact players and our dline has gotten progressively worse and one of the main reasons that sask has supplanted us in the west. They added Carney, Rose, and Ray thru free agency and have one of the best dlines in the league now.
  Walters mentioned that in a league with mostly one year contracts it's easier to retool, but unless you actually sign a quality player it doesn't matter. At some point we have to realize that even if it's an overpay to make a difference you have to go after some of the big fish

I agree with this. Walters has tended to adopt a "moneyball" approach of letting the big contract players leave, while he tries to find hidden value in the mid-value and bargain basement bin. It has not worked out lately, and the pendulum has swung too far in that direction. I'm not sure he would have even signed Brady last off season if Wade Miller had not stepped in to make it happen. He's hampered in what he can do SMS wise by a QB who's now very overpaid, but that's his doing as well.
