  1. That’s some toxic ass crap and what I’d expect out of the riders camp. I really don’t think guys are coasting on fake injuries or malingering when they are trying to get to the nfl. when he was in the line up, the riders dl had the best pass rush in the league. Every one was on track for like 12+ sacks. When he went down that pass rush became a whimper. If sayles had played like Lanier did last year he’d a been getting hyped as our modp candidate. I feel especially bad for mtl. That franchise was just getting back to its feet. How is every one sending guys to ssk but ignoring edm entirely? unless cf goes back to ssk I don’t think any place he lands he goes in as qb1. also mbt gets pulled in the gc. If he played the whole game we’d a won. He’s under contract with the argos iirc how would he be playing in the us? No nfl team is gonna knock on his door ever again.
  2. True but he also always ends up on really good teams. I feel like this will probably be the most affordable deal since his rookie contract. Being a similar age to jj and Wj it’d be a great longevity move for all three. plus close friends with Wj doesn’t hurt. I don’t expect it to actually happen but it’d be nice. Maybe slide hansen back to lber.
  3. Lanier is really good. He’d be a good fit here but we really need that nose to make our d work. When you consider the riders have to over pay guys it’s about right. He’d be a 200k guy for any one else. pretty happy with demski at 190. Not many wrs in the league impact the defense as much as he does.
  4. Man you can’t hope for more than what the mafia have gotten done before free agency.
  5. Happy to have Darby back. He can play just about any db position and is excellent at both Sam and s. Hopefully ba stays healthy this year but great insurance at s and a strong starter.
  6. Those guys and the top guys won’t get that money this year though. I think teams see those as the mistakes they are now. I’d actually rather over pay an ol than a wr. No other ni ol available is remotely as close to as good as desjarlais. You can have a meh wr. A meh ol can kill a line qb rb and offense. A ni starter is worth less now too with the nationalized stuff imo. I think that money is good for a ratio breaking ni who plays like an imp or brings a lot of versatility. For me demski might never have a 1k season, but he stretches and freezes the defense soo much with the run threat, is such an amazing blocker and a hard runner with the ball I have no issues with him at 180k. The defense needs to account for demski every single play. Pre snap, again post snap, and then even when he doesn’t get the ball head on a swivel cus he puts 100% into blocking for his team mates whistle to whistle. You don’t need to track gittens. You don’t game plan and practice to counter him.
  7. Compare his chances and production to McKnight, and agudosi. I think he’s done more than enough to be coming back. Remember he isn’t a wr he’s a rb who converted this year. Lots of imps have cut their teeth in the league as generalists from blink to sellers to banks owens Holmes and Bailey. Also keep in mind natural wrs are almost never really good in their rookie season. They generally take a year of seasoning to really turn it on.
  8. Wow. He’s a damn good young ni wr but man I wouldn’t wanna be paying him that.
  9. I don’t think he’s average at all. He’s def more raw than that but with much more upside. No doubt he’s a dangerous guy with the ball in his hands. As a rb I think he’s better than average. As a wr he needs to get a lot better to be really good. But as a guy who can do both he doesn’t need to be as good a wr. I’d love to see him really focus on catching punts and being our back up returner too. the mafia have shown they can really find gems at wr. Collaros has really taken advantage of a lot of great talents we’ve brought in over his time here. I don’t doubt that this year we will again see an insane battle at wr. No one is getting a spot easily. Im very pleasantly surprised grant is back and before fa. I really thought the late contract and low cost last year would’ve hurt us. Says alot about him and the team that this is where he wants to play. Love the guy, explosive and tough as hell. With the nagging injuries I’d like to see him either split returns or just return full time.
  10. I wonder what gittens got. Could drive the price up for demski. I like seeing guys resign it’s good for the league. I think lawler will bolt unless edm gets a good qb.
  11. It’s competitive for rookie free agents for sure. For cfl vets? Not even close. Though taxes and travel could factor in. It’ll probably affect guys in Toronto and bc a lot more. The living expense being what it is.
  12. He did heat up late though. I feel like he was lost with Harris and in that offense. I don’t think it’s on him. That’s the best value guy in free agency imo
  13. I love what Bailey brings to the team. I think he could step up and become a 1k wr. That said what he brings isn’t worth huge money imo.
  14. He was out of football coming into the cfl remember. And coming off a major knee injury. He played at the end of 2017, then didn’t play 2018 or until summer of 2019 here in tc. Nearly two years.
  15. That and sayles would be nice. Walters n co have already done a lot of the heavy lifting going into fa. We are going to lose less guys this off season than any in a while.
  16. Kolo has done some thing really impressive. For a guy his age with as few reps as he came here with to become a solid back up who can step in in an emergency that’s pretty amazing. I sure couldn’t see him going further and becoming more than that. I’d be happy if he stuck around as depth but I’d be very worried if we went into 2023 with him as a starter for the year. Especially with gray Eli and Dobson around. We’ve had guys with the physical tools and nastiness like Dobson and Eli before. But never with the pedigree and polish as well. Guys like Rupert butcher work out hero not guys who had legit shots of becoming nfl players or first round picks. for me the two best case scenarios are Eli starts at centre and Dobson at guard with gray as 6th man or re sign couture with eli at guard. Gray is soo much better suited to being a rt in the long run. And better as the te in heavy set.
  17. Agree. That’s kind of the nature of guards and why they don’t stand much of a chance at mol. probably right I can’t imagine us adding 300k to our sms for interior ol. Demski lawler lots of guys could have a bigger impact. Still sad. Eli. Dobson could back up as well.
  18. Drew is worlds better than suhk. Suhk was good on a great line desjarlais was great on a great line. Heart breaking. Though gray Dobson and Eli is a ton of depth. Is it crazy money yeah, but if you are gonna give a crazy money contract out I’d give it to a 25 year old with rings fresh off the nfl who happens to be the best at his position in the cfl and is an ni. Far better than giving lawler 300k imo. Or giving blm 500k+
  19. Ssk fans think so. I see a few other teams that could be after him. Some one will give up a first for him. Ssk, edm, first team with a qb to get hurt, etc.
  20. Agree 100%. now watch edm go after Dane evans and Toronto bring back cf as a back up.
  21. Naylor also said it’s 500k per season. That’s breaking the bank imo.
  22. Tbh if he gets an offer after the bombers will cut him and let him go as long as it’s well before camp.
  23. Seen more than enough gut wrenching injuries don’t need to watch more high lights of it.
