Booch

And disappeared again last 3rd of season..again..and was invisible in playoffs? Then yup that's him

Why...he costs less...is younger and more durable...and if targeted would produce the same...don't see the confusion

which is good to hear...and leads to believe we were targeting the big bodied type who can win the battles...or like you say go deep...ala Mathews seeing as we missed on Posey and Walker....As I see it Thompkins would offer same as Roosevalt...for cheaper...and 2 years younger

I would have considered him our last option..so seeing as we have really not spent any big money in free-agency other than Jefferson who was just over 200k...we obviously have money We had money set aside we would have used on Chungh...elite receiver..and shed salaries....no excuse not to use it to nail down Mathews....if he wants to play up here that is and if he is waitig for NFL work still..then nothing w can do

oh well....every one else has...when in Rome

well truly...thats who I hoped we got anyway....if we miss on that...major fail

When you don't know any better....lol Prob offered more as well to appease the fan base

200K would be my limit on a receiver...so Kudos for kyle for not caving in.. I too think Washington can be a dark horse...has the tools...got his feet wet and made some nice grabs last year....maybe he will be developed...he is still young enough

Yeah..he hadnt played in over a year..and was thrust right in and made some nice grabs...full camp..he will be fine and still only 29 with low mileage Him..rosie..darvin and our canadians..be a good unit

Pretty sure now that he is off board u will see us announce a Roosevalt..a Rhymes or possibly Mathews..and I will be fine with that to he honest

Well if price got that high..glad we bowed out..so not worth it

I see Rider's signed A.C Leonard...I recall when he was dumped..they all dumped on him..bad guy...no good...bad penalties..yadda..yadda...yaddaa...I bet now the narrative is "Solid signing" "just s good as Willie at half the cost"...etc...etc

dark horse as well would be Rhymes...you have to remeber he payed behind Ellingson..Sinoploli and Spencer...so his looks were limited and put up a bit over 300 yards in 8 games..as a more featured guy...he could do quite well with nice size and speed

but really...other than the uncertainty of facilities..actually lack thereof in terms of practice etc. in T.O...What does he really have to see in other cities?...he knows whats what...

He knows what most teams facilities are..probably wanted to check out if T.O has actually built some kind of facility as opposed to busing around the city..and I sure it was more of a Jim Popp thing wanting to bring him there and go for the hard sell on him. The fact he didnt sign qhen the Argos said they basically planned to sign him yesterday is lending me to believe he is looking at the whole picture as opposed to maybe making 30-50 k more there, but playing in basic anonymity and no real fan frenzy

I like this signing...still young with nice cover skills...theres our field corner....I was hoping we would grab him or the guy who re-upped in Ottawa

signed Winston Rose....good pick-up....

He says now....we shall see what level it is at around Aug...especially when he has no depth around him and is not getting the stats

yup...Bring back Nevis...familiarity with scheme and players....send the rest packing

so riders showing interest in Glenn now...can this get any more comical???

yup...sign him to a one year deal and he doesn't have to be the focal point..so less wear on him

Adams just needs a bit of help to take attention away from him...he led league in 30=yards plays and was second in td receptions with 10...so some small help would do wonders Value signing in Roosevalt as a year stop gap while we "hopefully" develop one of our own recruits would serve well...unless we can nab Mathews on a ice deal...Terrence Tolliver as well is an interesting option

Yeah...A Mathews and Holley, or a Roosevalt and Tolliver combo would compliment what we have nicely and fit into what we do on offence better...

Yeah for all those signings you can conceivably say they actually regressed

Thing is...The Riders will be in this hole now for several years as all the quality starters are locked up...so unless they can un-earth a real gem (won't happen) they have to trade for a second teir guys and most likely have to give up something significant for it, as why would a team help you out for nothing? They can spin things any way they want out there, but they have had to settle since Joes left for their coaches, and now QB and possible lose other key guys..I can't see Roosevalt wanting to re-up there to get set up to be pummeled like last year from poor QB play, and I wouldn't be shocked to see Tobi Anighua leave and follow his buddy here, or head up to CGY
