CFL News ‏@CFL_News 38s Dressler's salary would B upwards of $40K more than @ChadOwens2 ($205K) & #Alouettes OL Josh Bourke ($210K). via @TimCBaines #CFL

Ottawa can have him...Way to go Marcel LOL CFL News ‏@CFL_News 4s #RedBlacks offered Dressler a whopping contract that will make him the #CFL's highest-paid non-quarterback..via @TimCBaines

Free burgers hey? I wasn't aware Dressler converted to the offensive line.

gary lawless @garylawless · 42m "You gotta be on top of the mountain to get the good water." one and only coach Dave Ritchie joins H and L today at 4 on #tsn1290

If only Lyle kept his nose out of the on field product....POS. Coach Ritchie was a gem. No coach we've had since has been in the same league as Dave the Bear, not including O'Shea considering his tenure is just beginning.

Dressler would be a great fit, especially in the red zone. Willy loves the corner route in the endzone, and Dressler does a fantastic job of running and selling that route, among others of course.

Rod Pedersen @sportscage · 4m Looks more & more to me like Dressler won't be back in Sask. How does that sit with you?

Good thing the CFL didn't cave to the PA's picture of sunshine and rainbows when it comes the the health of the league.

Jeffrey Bannon ‏@JeffreyBannon 5m I've heard this before #JB

absolutely. you add someone at the level of a Dressler and I'd have no problems calling the Bombers receivers tops in the league. IMO Dressler is over-hyped, over-rated and soon to be over-paid. His biggest season was 2012 when he gained 1,206 yards and most seasons he's right around 1,000 yards. He does not rank with CFL greats such as Steegal, Simon or Allan Pitts. Calling Dressler over rated, and making spelling errors in two out of the three greatest receivers to ever play the game is about all that needs to be said about the above post... Dressler runs fantastic routes, he has deceptive speed, makes catches in traffic, and he runs a tremendous corner route (which Willy happens to LOVE throwing in the endzone). He'd be a great addition to the team.

Imagine if we had kept Milt, Bruce and Geroy together? Hindsight kills me sometimes. Considering the CFL was uncapped and Bauer forced Taman to a tight budget, I doubt that being possible considering the money that guys like Khari, Roberts, Sellers, Brown, and other elite players commanded at that time.

Gordon put up 1,395 the season before along with 7 touchdowns. 33 or not you don't part with numbers like that. No one had any idea what Simon would become. There was no reason to think he'd be one of the greatest of all time.

The difference is, is that at the time Simon was not better than Milt, Bruce, or Gordon. No one knew what Simon was going to become. He only had 725 yards for us in 2000 before he went to the NFL. There was no reason to overspend for him considering who we had. Hindsight is always 20/20 though of course.

i prefer this approach. Don't get peoples hopes us, Desjardins needs to be careful here, cuz if they don't sign dressler, he is going to look very dumb. "He is going to look very dumb." implies he already doesn't look dumb. See Burris, Henry, and comments about our team around the expansion draft, nevermind how he crapped all over himself while in Hamilton.

Not implying that we can only afford one high priced player, but I'd rather pay that for a quality Canadian lineman in the upcoming offseason. Nothing against Dressler.

One word answer if he'd get into a bidding war for him - "Absolutely"

"We have a high degree of interest in Weston. We'd love to have him here in Ottawa. At the end of the day we're going to move forward and see what we can accomplish." - Desjardins on TSN 1290

Marcel will be on Hustler and Lawless at the bottom of the hour to speak on Dressler.

Darrin Bauming ‏@DarrinBauming 1m O'Shea doesn't see where recent NFL-cut and former #Bombers and #Riders defensive end Alex Hall fits in on his team. Whose job does he take?

The Riders special teams has been awful. Stoudermire will have a field day with this if they don't fix it for next week.

Good on Joe West for playing through that. I know I wouldn't be able to. As an aside....Anybody still upset about not giving Henry Burris the money? No? Didn't think so.

Tell that to Arash Madani. His bitching on Twitter about the expansion draft is laughable.

Hall would be a huge signing for us. I'll always be a fan of Peach's work, but we need an elite pass rusher.
