WPG. Own thread coming soon.

CAL . How much do you tinker if at all? But somethin aint right here

EDM. Lots of room for improvement.  Reilly another year older

SSK. Canadas team has lots of FAs, Carter leaving. Huge question marks at QB

BC. Lots of smoke but less flame than grease fire in MTL. Whole new coaching staff at least

TOR. Turning point to build on or just a nice story like OTT last year?

HAM. Soap opera . Key FAs looming. Collaros. Manziel thing.

OTT.  Trending down

MTL. Grease fire until further notice.

Guessing Grymes is done chasing the NFL and will stay put in Edm.

Durant has to be a better backup than Glenn. We know that Glenn is going to fold when the weather gets cold, Durant has played some of the best games of his career in November.

Can Durant even win games in August and September anymore?

That would be a good move by the Esks IMO.  With that O, KG5 could definitely win games from the bullpen if needed.

Until it matters

Edm will likely take Glenn over LeFleour or Davis wouldn’t you think. Wpg needs a better back up plain and simple.

Isn't this the last spot on the cfl bingo card for Glenn?

Not only would Edmonton complete the bingo card, I hear the Halifax club has a deal in place with Glenn for their fist season in 2021.

Durant will be available after next Monday (Jan15). There will be less options left for him to go to - Winnipeg is high on the list, then maybe Ham, BC and/or Calgary.

Technically yeah, but he never played a game with Ottawa or Toronto despite them owning his rights.

I'd assume if the money was the same Durant would want Winnipeg because of familiarity with LaPo.

Not that important, if he comes to WPG.  his main priority should be familiarizing himself with the bench way off in the far corner of the field and how it feels to be glued to his ass.  Doesn't say much about this regime's ability to scout and recruit QB prospects if after 4 years all we have to look forward to is the possibility of acquiring Glenn or Durant.   Wherefore art though Danny Mac?

look at some of the guys playing in the NFL. Saw some pretty good dirt balls over the last little while.

Aside from playing qb, finding someone who can play QB must be the hardest job in football.

To be (a pretentious ELA nerd) or not be be (a pretentious ELA nerd), that is the question.

Whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of misuse of the word wherefore,

Or takes arms against misinterpretation and point out' wherefore' actually means 'why'

I agree it is a bummer that the we are constantly picking through the leftovers to bolster our bullpen, and that trend doesn't appear to be changing.

"To be or not be be"

Auto-fail.  Better luck next year.

Couple that with convincing people to give up on their NFL aspirations for a bit as well.. take a much lower pay as well.. its a tough gig.

That was some good burn right there.  Warmed up my hands on the monitor this cold windy day on the prairies. 
 

Man, Walker back to Esks now...  Calgary and Edmonton's recruiting at WR is just lightyears beyond ours

EDM receivers are ridiculous.  They are stacked.

I am sure paying Walker Bowman and Hazelton is not cheap.

Yet somehow they also have excellent DL, OL, QB, LB and DBs.  Hmmm...

There defense was not great last year.

Hard to determine with all of the injuries they suffered.

You’d think that Bowman either is taking a significant payout or getting cut.
