Yeah ..think if you read the tea leaves it's telling us BO won't be back unless he pulls a 180 ...as in signs for that...

I could see both those guys on roster...Smith as the RB and Cruickshank DA'd as returner, as well as in on offense...You would have JA as the in game RB backup, as well as 2 guys with return skill....and all 3 at the cost of what BO wants

Eli I dont think has ever played tackle...nor do I think he suited for it...U want your big nasty brawlers inside as well...where they can do most damage

yeah....this is a legit prospect...believe he is 5'-9" 200 ...but he's a guy who accelerates fast and changes gear/direction flawlessly

Liking this signing...he's a legit 4.4 running back...His pro day numbers would have put him in top 4 of RB times at the NFL combine..and what I like about him for the CFL game...and our O-line is that he a patient runner when choosing a hole or sem but when he gets to it he's thru it fast....good blocker and physical....Very interesting signing...the first real legit RB prospect we bringing up in a long time. Work a lot with Sun Belt guys so know some guys with good intel on him...He was actually projected to be an elite NFL return guy too

Believe Smith returns kicks too....Interesting signing

They have almost half a million of their cap tied to Yosh and Lanier...now that's idiotic...we have what...maybe 360k tied into WJ and Big Stan...both of whom are better

Yeah, I noticed last yr he was in a modified set position...I also think it due to he's put on weight again...and injuries/age....we will be a stronger oline with someone else there....and I love Yosh, but also being a realist

he was on the 1 game injured....not sure how that equate considering all yr he was a PR guy...he's likely making 85k max as his deal next yr

Richmond technically has never signed an actual yearly contract filed to the league...Just practice roster agreements...so yes....he could be on a minimum deal but I bet we pay him a bit more...insignificant in the grand scheme I bet too...but no way were we gonna offer him more than Stan...who took a shave....and truthfully...we kept the right Tackle

and the fact it's the Riders he's gauging....even better

yeh...beat me to it....but thats a nice chunk to be funneled elsewhere

prob a net saving at the position of 70...80k there abouts to use elsewhere...every bit counts...I believe Richmond will essentially be on an entry level deal this yr...or just a smidge above for a courtesy move for sticking with it for 3 yrs here

he definately didnt want to leave here....but for prob 80k more a yr his wife would have shot him if he didnt take it...Happy for him...he will be missed for sure but not a loss by any means at this juncture of his career...and his 160k here will go a long way elsewhere...One G.M makeing tha smart..prudent forward thinking moves...the other...desperate stabs at whatever....with no plan or idea...

yup....and what we likely had on table....good for him on soaking the Riders and bidding them up...as there were others interested....too funny tho....Man Rider management is brutal...I sure on Riderfans the see it as fleecing us ahahaha

oh my...hhahaha...what an over pay....so funny only way they can aquire established talent...and As much as I love Yosh...what a bad bad contract....Atta boy Oday!!....keep it coming nailed it! good luck Riders QB's with that well...they have now over paid to have the highest paid olineman....Over payed to pay Lanier as the highest paid defensive player...which is amother joke...may as well over pay for Betts as highest paid Canadian/Defensive player haha...what a clown show....love it! Gray should be outside.....not sure if he ready fulltime yet.....But withRichmond and the new guy from U of Hawaiii...we more than fine there with a starter and back up

yup...making the smart moves to not hamstring us...tho tough....same with Houston...no need to pay top dollar when we have better in house for cheaper

For him to lave....believe me had to be a money issue...and Ssk paid a ransom. Is this the yr too, that he falls off the cliff....could be said he was on it last yr, guys with his body make-up...especially at a position requiring some speed and finesse at that age tend to decline...fast o become injury magnets....super glad he getting bank tho! Walters is a smart G.M and once it got to be not worth the price tag he walke away....good on him, and we have adequate replacement with Richmond, and the guy from Hawaii as well we just signed I see much the same going to happen withBO.....and effectively now, you can give that 175k we likely would have sent to Yosh toward Schoen. as Yosh replacement will be under 90k

Yeah....he will bring vet leadership to that group....but its a weak group...not sure him out on the edge is gonna be the magic elixir there....but glad he gets paid....and we all know its likely a hefty tag

yes....u can mull the offers...agree to one as it is binding...after window of tampering closes your old team can match/beat if they choose.....then player can pick where he wants to be

Poor Yosh.....Guess its Richmond time...free's up some money for Schoen..... Yup...they likely paid large for it as they were not the only team in on him...and yes he is on wrong side of dominant now....Richmond will be no drop off....Cheaper for next few yrs....and allows us some cash to move to another position

I think they are under belief that the Argos wont be matching the Ottawa numbers...so he will sign there, unless another team steps up and knocks Ott down a peg I do see Barlow possibly being here tho

Ford will be a player.....curious to see where we put him

this belief guys will follow a former co-ordinator...from a good team...to a dumpster rarely occurs....especially when the dumpster is sitting in Regina....

they all are...just wait and see haha...
