No, why is it bad that we can't?

I'd bring him in only after TC. If they end up having zero confidence in any of the guys they bring to camp, then sure...go and get him. But otherwise, I think it would be a waste

why?

Adams and Evans are the only two that make sense really. Decent enough with some potential to unlock still.

He will most certainly get a few looks from other NFL teams if he's cut. I think as of last week, Bengals had like 3 OL on the roster lol.

MBT really....maybe some other random 3rd stringer from a squad last year that hasn't been picked up

Depending on the day...yes

Lol people complained that he didnt/wouldn't restructure...now we're complaining that he did restructure?

I actually heard, he specifically dislikes SpeedFlex27 and that's why he's not in the CFL.

Yeah but what do people think he should be doing with his life? We should fill a 3rd thread with comments about him just to be sure

With Collaros indicating that this year may be his last, maybe knowing he won't be sitting behind a future hall of famer for another 2 years is enough for Elgersma to want to come up?

Yeah im not arguing that Elgersma will end up on a PR/Roster etc etc. Just that the rookie contracts give him (or any other player who seem to believe they'll catch on down south) little to no reason to come to the CFL.

Its not about paying him because he deserves it. Its about being able to draw Canadians that are borderline guys to the CFL. Why would Elgersma sign in the CFL right now? The money just doesnt make sense. If it was double what it is now, im sure he'd have a much more difficult choice. And not just qbs either, there are more and more guys getting attention down south that will never actually play there. But $$ speaks, and right now the CFL rookie contracts are barely whispering.

Any actual proof?

Uhhh what? First im hearing about this. What happened? And unless it was a very serious fight, that would be some bullshit reason to bench a guy.
