I noticed wheatfall can get the 30+ yard passes done where white can’t
Between Wheatfall and Gittens somebody won’t be getting the ball a heck of a lot. And if that’s Gittens then Gittens for Orange is a saw-off.
I did .
But then I pay more attention than some others do .
Or we just throw more.
“Is Condell back ? The Ti Cats don’t run the ball enough.”
I didn’t say he was better Than Timmeh, but he has more upside IMHO and I feel he will be less of a liability when I comes to drops, fumble and dumb mistakes. We gained with Gittens Jr. and with the pair of them both we are better at receiver.
He’s fumbled twice in 5 years.
True. His body of work and experience are not that high, but damn, his highlight package looked pretty good. ![]()
That’s exactly what I said in the first place.
I had honestly forgotten we had signed him when I saw the news about Gittens. Was aware of him with the Bombers but he didn’t move the needle for me one way or the other. What the team has done is given themselves veteran options at every spot in the receiving corps. So the rookies being brought in won’t necessarily be asked to step in and fill any void if they aren’t ready. If one of them does happen to beat out Bridges or Wheatfall though, then you’ll know there’s some talent there.
He had a couple big games in Winnipeg but never really strung anything together consistently. Some potential there for sure. If he could put up 500 yards and be the occasional deep threat to make up for White’s speed the team will probably be good with that. Above and beyond is a bonus. A lot could depend on where he gets slotted mainly but receivers do get moved around and motion out to other areas.
Wheatfall had 7 receptions in his last 6 games and some are pegging him as better than a 1000 yard guy.
Shiny new toy no doubt but Bridges has a better resume IMO.
Free Agency ReCap
Great listen here from Milton
Looking at our new rec group.. Lawler and smith both 1000 atleast then you have KGJ who can be 1000 yards as he put up 777 yards o na really garbage elks team last year.. im sure wheatfall can put up another 600-700 yards and im sure bridges improves.. bo will be another 5000 yards qb this year.. my thing is 5000 straight seasons of possible another 35-40 TD u can’t say he won’t win MOP this year if he plays like they’ll he did last year
Fair, I stand corrected. but he still drops passes especially at the wrong time.
Then we agree.
Reports indicate that White dropped the pen when signing his contract with Winnipeg
Careful thats not a trackable stat
