Add three more names to the Winnipeg Blue Bombers off-season roster.

 The club announced the signings of import defensive lineman Alex Hall, import linebacker Terrell Parker and import defensive back Demond Washington Tuesday afternoon.

 Hall, a 6-foot-5, 250-pound lineman, last saw football action in 2010, when he played in two games for the NFL’s New York Giants. A seventh round draft choice of the Cleveland Browns in 2008, the 26-year-old played 16 games as a rookie, registering 28 tackles, three sacks, and two forced fumbles.

 Hall also saw time with the Philadelphia and Arizona organizations.

 Parker (5-foot-11, 220 pounds) started 40 games over four seasons at Glenville State, recording 287 tackles, 19 sacks, 10 interceptions, five forced fumbles, four fumble recoveries and two blocked kicks in that time. Parker started 12 games for the Assindia Cardinals of the German Football League in 2010.

 Washington went to school at Auburn, where he won the National Championship with the Tigers in 2010 before signing on with the Kansas City Chiefs. Recording four tackles and a 21-yard kickoff return in the 2011 pre-season, the 5-foot-9, 182-pound defensive back was one of the final cuts in Chiefs camp.

 Hall, Parker, and Washington will not be in Winnipeg for the club’s annual mini camp, which starts Wednesday morning at Canad Inns Stadium.
