Average signings or not, we need depth behind our starters, just need Onterra back

I can’t see Wilson staying down south.

100% this rings alarm bells. It seems like one or both could be down long term.

We need receivers, obviously, so these signings aren’t a big surprise, but it also makes you wonder if they are directly related to Demski, or more likely Sterns injury. Also possible conversations with Wilson have lead the team to believe he’s going to hang around down south hoping for another shot.

I agree with your comments on Biggie! I would have loved to see him in Bomber Blue but he IMHO is past his "Best Before Time". And IMHO I think it is time to move on from Jake Thomas (I love the guy but IMHO he needs to only serve in a back up role)

Moore and Echols is the definition of scrap heaping. Not saying we don't need to do it, just unfortunate it has come to this.

Maybe both. Hard to believe he's 28 eh? Bout to turn 29 though. Still, younger than Echols somehow. But yeah, he's an undersized guy who plays hard. 5 seasons and almost 300 catches under his belt. He isn't shot, but he isn't fresh as a daisy either. I like both moves better than running out Cody or pushing Schoen back early. Plus, I like how these guys are a reasonable balance of vet experience and youth. They are great guys to push who we have.

He also had the Faj throwing him deep balls, so it’s tough to judge too harshly 😂

F*** those green bastards!

Canadians don't count, this was one of the good things that Randy Ambrosie got the NFL to do to help the CFL. They originally were looking at including us. I knew this because there was a short blurp on TSN about it at the time. I don't think anyone in the media realized just how big a win that was for our league because it was a buried story and it deserved much more headlines.

K-Law is gonna feast on the Argos.

Possible Totally forgot about him kicking around out there...maybe he got glasses as his tracking on deep balls was an adventure

Yeah. And he did play with Collaros is Sask so maybe some familiarity there.

Yeah...intruiging for sure...has good hands too Wonder if we see him and Moore ...or both in lineup this week? Schoen I think is a foolish add at this point..let him heal even more...the fact he trying to get back in with a brace on is something I don't like and has red flags all over it

Straight from the NFL website: What is the International Player Pathway

By rule no players of American or Canadian citizenship qualify. Your blogger is incorrect.

Yeah, I mean that's a clear improvement over a chunk of guys we've run out at WR this and last year.

Always liked Swerve, had issues tracking the deep ball at times, but generally sure handed. He has a bit of tread on him, but he’d be similar to Sterns at this point in his career.

Or maybe they have given up on Mitchell

I don't hate this move, actually. Doesn't have a ton of wear on him, really interesting athlete with good experience and reasonable success. He's got a great first and second gear, very twitchy, explosive. And has a top gear, but is missing about 2 mid gears to make the most out of his top-end speed. He has probably 3 gears more than you can even use in football. He was a really good 200m runner, 100m, and amazing jump ability. He's a real solid back up PR/KR as well. Could do a lot of damage in catch and run stuff, and also on the sweep plays.

Well, Moore is a vet and has atleast put up some nice numbers is the CFL.

Oh Jesus... This reeks of bad news incoming...

actually he had some nice games....I like that signing actually Bigger bodied guy....experimce...can return too I believe...would aoffer way more that that kid form the Mines school would.... Also tell's me Sterns gonna be on shelf a bit

Woods has to get on the roster for this game. Like you said, pressure will be key and we have to get more from our D line. I’d like to see Bailey inserted as well, but I highly doubt that’s going to all of a sudden happen. It would make a lot of sense, but….
