Fatty Liver

I am surprised actually, the games he played he was the Bombers most effective receiver. I think he will catch on with another club as a #2 receiver.

No doubt poor management and lots of gaffs but in both of those years Durant keeps them ahead of the Bombers and BC and gives them a reasonable chance of success in the playoffs. Suddenly I'm feeling queassyyy.

Consider the circumstances at the time, Taman was under enormous pressure to resign Dressler upon his return from the NFL. The entire province was in a frenzy during those negotiations and Taman was already in cap hell from retaining other veterans. Enter Ottawa, with no cap issues and a demented GM they made Dressler a salary offer that Taman could not possibly match. Taman made a deal with Dressler to sign for less in 2014 but with payments and bonuses deferred to the following years that worked in both of their interests and got Dressler to sign on the dotted line. Sask. rejoiced, merchandise sales spiked and accolades poured out from stubbled fields upon the lovable Brendan, If not for Durant's injuries in 2014 and 2015 which wiped out both seasons, there is a good chance both Taman and Dressler are still employed by the Riders today.

Tickles my heart-bone that the Riders are purging and BC just hired Marcel.

The CFL is going to have a hard time making the coming season as entertaining as this off-season has become.

Fact or fantasy? If so, how did they sign him before FA opens?

Dressler better be happy with $200,000, he has neither age or size on his side.

Dressler is still quick but not necessarily fast, good for short to medium routes and would be a good pick up if he is accompanied with outside speed.

Jones is smart, probably keeps Ryan Smith in lieu of Dressler.

I don't expect much will be left in the cookie jar once Free Agency opens, just the broken bits and a bunch of crumbs.

Kind of surprised that Jacques Chapdelaine is being left out in this year's version of musical chairs as I thought he did a decent job in Sask. last year considering what he had to work with. Wpg. and Ottawa were probably his best hopes for an OC position but in Wpg. at least he wasn't let go until after LaPo was already hired. Does he end up being the default replacement on Coach's Playbook or has Tom Higgins already wrapped up the gig? Higgins=charisma.

Looks like the marketing team is back from Christmas break and revving up the machine for the coming season. I for one am anxious to see how Addison Richards will be wearing his hair in 2016.

Agreed, by fishing in the deepest waters hoping to hook high priced free agents Walters is failing to build the club up in the way that he said he would only two years ago. Instead of successfully recruiting imports and developing their own prospects through the draft they are relying heavily on out bidding other teams for already proven players and paying the highest price possible in the process. After largely failing to find their own future prospects, leaks like this reek of desperation imo.

A real bargain considering the attitude he brings with him. Mr. Price is Right Verified account ‏@MauricePrice17 2 all the upcoming CFL free agents GET UR MONEY !!!! It's 2016, the days of playing FOOTBALL 4 less than 6 figures are overrrr ! #FUPayMe

Price for a 6th rounder? Why didn't we make that trade? Price has been the epitome of an under-performer since signing his big contract with Cgy. I suppose he still has the potential to break out but so far he has not delivered, thus his 3rd team in 3 years.

Curious, why have you come to the conclusion that Waggoner won't amount to much?

Sounds pretty attractive but I honestly don't know if Waggoner showed enough in 2015 to conclude that he will be a starter anytime soon....maybe, maybe not. Why they didn't give him a chance to start at Safety the last game of the season still baffles me. One thing for certain is that Walter's paid a high price to acquire Waggoner and I don't expect him to do a mea-culpa anytime soon by trading him away or moving on from him. This would be an open admission that he may have over-judged Waggoner's potential and paid too much in the process.

Thunder and lightening materializes and both backs gain over 1,000 yds.

Only if he can play O-line.

Pause....this has nothing to do with signing Nichols, just coincidental timing.

Okay. 1. Collaros. 2. Eggs, sausage and Collaros 3. Eggs, sausage, Collaros bake beans and Collaros. 4. Collaros, eggs, sausage, baked beans, Collaros and Collaros.... I don't like spam.

No they actually can't. Now, if you're referring to the potential talent of the top 4 names I think you're being far too hasty in dismissing them after a few appearances. If cut I expect every one of the 4 would be scooped up by another team. Crompton and LeFevour if healthy, could still find a spot as backups.

Ya didn't say that in your original post. Start again.

This is for the past season, right? I know there is a lot of Hank hate out there but you can't OBJECTIVELY look at this past season and rank Drew Willy or a lot of these other QB's ahead of him in performance. Just look at the frickin' numbers, he put on some masterful passing clinics down the stretch and other than Collaros when healthy, Henry had the greatest impact on his team. Maybe that's why he was nominated and won MOP???

Montreal is currently carrying 8 QB's on their roster. I would think at least 4 will be cut loose or traded before the end of TC. The top 4 on this list are relatively unproven but full of potential, and all 4 will likely have a safe landing with other CFL teams if cut. I think they'll probably keep Glenn, one vet and two of these guys for future development, good place to go shopping imo. Too bad the Bombers already burned the bridge with Tajh Boyd. Boone, Anthony Boyd, Tajh Bridge, Brandon Cato, Rakeem Crompton, Jonathan Glenn, Kevin LeFevour, Dan Marsh, Tanner
