Voice of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers on 680 CJOB.
My follow up is:
How does paying Vaughters affect what’s available for receivers?

Last year Collaros + Lawler + Schoen + Demski + Oliveira was about 30% of the salary cap.

With WR Dillon Mitchell already added is there enough left for Schoen & Lawler?

I think a lot of Bomber fans yearn for the Jefferson-Jeffcoat days (even though we’re only 1 season removed from it).
This feels like a step back toward that.

It was a lot of counting throughout the season 😆

Should add Brian Cole with 186 snaps. He'd expected to play DB this season but appeared to be deployed more as an linebacker.

Personally, I love the thought of it. Having two elite receivers (in addition to Demski, Mitchell, etc) means you'll always have options.

They had awful luck with injuries last season. Had Schoen played the full season I think they'd have been #1/#2 again

The question becomes: is Mitchell a straight addition to the Bombers receiving corps? Or is he replacing some vet they know will not be returning.

Kenny Lawler and Dalton Schoen are pending free agents.

Mitchell had 58 catches for 727 yards and 4 TD for the Elks last season.

Funnily enough, he features in CJOB's intro to our fantasy segment, scorching the Bombers for a TD.
