Most important question, did he learn that no means no yet? Guy should have been black listed from the league along with the management that swept it under the rug.

Yup. That and the fact that he is our star QB, we have a backup that we know we can win games with, and that our current and future prospects for success hinge on Kelly's 100% recovery makes it and easy decision to put him on the IR.

Younger will be like a kid in a candy shop with his options....If I was to make a guess that ot's Gowan's job to lose in Fords spot...and that would give us a Bonds/Nichols/Holm/Gowan group....And if Parker isn't at safety then him and Griffin are constantly on the filed with that 3 man front...Do we keep Bridges just because he is a hold over?...I hope not as scanning the roster right now we have a lot of guys who at first glance seem to offer more...just need the seasoning, but with all the guys I mentioned....plus Makonzo..Kramdi...Smith..Shay....that new DB wont see the roster anyway unless an injury pandemic hits Hope to get there this week a day or two or on weekend to get some eyes on a few guys and get a better idea

We have the Jones we signed form T.O...Ayers....We now have Mokonzo....guys who all showed they belong....If Jaylem Smith and Shay show they can take reps....That Bailey kid who I see as a guy all over the field...Griffin....and actually Person's who I can see used as an Uber-jack type guy....we have a lot to work with in what we gonna do...Tony Jones and Kyrie should be seriously worried about their jobs...and rightfully so....we also have Kramdi who passport alone should keep him in place over those 2....Jones like Kramdi have some holes in their game and are vulnerable in some aspects...top notch in others....so if it's a this or that you keep Kramdi for his National status...and fact we may employ 3 to 4 National/Global guys in the line backing corp gives even more reason to cut bait with 2 national bottom end DT's in lieu of playmaking imports...as the roster makeup would allow it so easily

Yeah, seems like we are committed to shedding the old guard, a few guys at a time each off-season. At this rate, it might take another 2 years to be fully over the long-in-the-tooth gang. I think the hardest spot to cut rookies is going to be the secondary. We have a ton of blue chippers and 2 openings with a vet or two going after those spots. That and Lber. JY is going to have fun at this camp. It'll be interesting to see how much the COs shape their rosters. In the draft video, both Mos and Walters talked about meeting the wants of Mike Miller for young athletic teams' guys.

Yup....as that just puts you one step further behind in 2026...and starting from ground zero ...again...Kyrie...Kolo...Thomas...Schmeck..Hallet's...keeping them over legit talent/upside guys for another yr when in 2026 they should have evn less business on a pro roster...is just piss poor roster managing and projecting

Yuup. I am mainly concerned about losing a guy like ayers/Jjones for kyrie. But I'm preparing for it, I know there is gonna be at least one guy let go that would be better to keep. I hope it isn't too brutal.

Both off-season threads are rando free-for-alls. This one is more than most. That Tib and fib bust is ugly as it gets. If they say he is 50-50 for the start of the year, it is more likely he might be game-ready by week 4. And even at that, it's a crap shoot come back.

and its not about a guy who hasnt taken a rep yet....or hasnt been able to show anything yet...It's about keeping long in the tooth...declining... zero upside/all downside guys, at a higher price point as well ...over youth...upside....athleticism....and cheaper....you dont know what you have until you actually give it legit chances...and we in a lot of instances don't...unless forced to by injury...and defections to other teams...and even then we will play a well below 100 percent guy and not give these all starters" a chance....with the older declining dead weight you know exactly what you have...and what your gonna get....and it's not forward looking positive...and some cases isnt even in the now positive There is some legit talent here this yr..Person being one....and cutting high potential guys to keep some of the usual suspects...serves zero purpose and has no value moving forward....Jobs need to be competed for and won Only guys in my opinion who should get the free pass and not have to go balls out are BO...Big Stan...Nichols and WJ....The rest....win the job outright

We cut two of his interviews from last year lmao. I'm not gonna waste time going into the point by point, because when most of the TC roster is just a pile of names to you, it's easy to understand why you don't care who is cut. Not everyone on the TC roster is just a name to every poster here. It's kinda strange the way they did it with him, but glad he's getting a deal. It's too bad he just missed Tom Clements as the QB coach with the Packers.

Someone’s grumpy. There there.

Elgersma signing with Packers today. per 3Downnation

Or... hear me out: I could file it under "CFL Non Bomber Off Season Thread"

Referees don’t get to decide what’s in the rule book or not. It’s states that goal shouldn’t have counted. Regardless the stars player kicked it.

File that one under no one cares who pays attention. Let the season begin.

And MOS for the 1200th time told the press JT's a leader and deserves to go out on his own terms.

Nobody Tait sits down with gets cut He sat down with Adams but if we being honest, our DL wasn’t great last year so I do expect some change. Wilson ? He’s a 3rd stringer. If he can’t beat out other 3rd stingers, so be it. Eli been here since Covid and is a backup. Person? wtf has he done on the field? Nothing. Are rookies getting cut surprising? Dude hasn’t played a down.

The referees strongly felt that the Stars player was not trying to purposely direct the puck toward the goal with his skate. Huh? Such a garbage call and huge momentum swing. Whatever, move on, lets get the next game.

guaranteed if we hit their guy from behind we get called. That’s the issue I have. Ok don’t call things but if you gonna let the hit from behind that leads directly to a goal then why you calling chincy trips on us. It’s weak BS. Let them play or call the ******* game evenly. You can’t pick and choose who you’re gonna call. You either call all blatantly obvious penalties or none. Pretty black and white but the problem is the refs be seeing shades of grey. The biggest problem with the 3 2 game winning goal is it shouldn’t have counted. It’s like they were trying to find a way to justify the poor call instead of the simple yup he kicked it in stuff. That’s why it took about 9 minutes to decide. Then they say Helle propelled the kicked puck into the net. It’s just bullshit.

I'm 100% ready for us to have some really painful cuts. 1 of Woods/Adams, any of Person, Ayers, Jonathon Jones, Eli, Randolph, Terry Wilson, and Vanterpool, I could see being cut. Woods, Adams, Ayers, Eli, and Randolph would really hurt. I think there is even a small chance that Lawson could be cut if he isn't 100% ready to go and comes out slow in camp. The thought of cutting guys like that for Kyrie, Patterson, kola, jake, schmekel etc is just awful. But it's likely we let go of some one with lament.

Reports from 2100 say Jake Thomas isn't practicing but is expected to start in his 89th season in Blue and Gold.

Ah training camp, the time of the year where we see a bunch of exciting stuff from some promising rookies, only to see them released in favour of aging slugs. Seriously though, excited for the season to start.

After coming back ahead of schedule, Kelly was dressed but didn't participate yesterday. Scuttlebutt from the likes of Barker is that he didn't feel good after his first practice. Might be that he starts the year on the IR and Arbuckle steers the ship for 6 games. (We play Calgary and Saskatchewan and 4 East teams in them).

No suspicion, no credibility
