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.

Is there any word on Taylor Reed?

No. I wouldn't bet on him coming here either BTW.

Wasn't Purifoy a villain in Harry Potter?

Man... Lions players jumping ship big time. Bazzie. Purifoy.. 

And the signings they have made are rather strange. 

Funny tweeter exchange

 

 

 

And match point goes to Derek Taylor.

Eat a bag of dicks, Duron.

His mom and dad must be so proud. All that talent and the attitude and judgement of a spoiled three year old.

Carter gets caught with a large amount of weed trying to go through customs in November and just over two months later gets caught again doing the same thing. Does anybody suspect him to show any sign of intelligence?  He likely hates Taylor's work because it has numbers bigger than 10.

Konar got a $300k deal over 2 years.  My prediction.  He’s a free agent again next off-season.  That’s an absurd contract for a very average player.

I expect players to be a little 'overpaid' at FA, but that's quite a big contract. Some lofty expectations there.

We just paid $130k for a 300-400 yard receiver...  $10k less than Adarius Bowman...

This is the NI price - you're paying for youth and for potential ratio-breaker...

Mrabure is a nice signing by Hufnagel...  don't see the reasoning in paying Zack Evans over Mrabure

Demski is a for sure starter.  Konar is a role player.  If he's starting they are in big trouble, as their D was last season.

Hmmmm....Konar is a good NI linebacker, but not that good, so far as he has been able to prove. Potential is not proof.

Well see

 I think both exceed expectations

Just had to add this:

Listening to Saskatchewan sports radio today (650 & 620) and the commentators were almost hyperventilating on how great the Rider signings were today...I heard things like "we undoubtedly have the best D-line in the league right now" and "Riders definetly Grey Cup contender now".

Sigh! This kind of stuff never ends here in Greenland! (We don't have comedy shows here per see but we do have Rider radio!)

Are they expecting Evans, Jefferson, and Hughes to play on the O-line, too...?

Collaros is going to be running for his life.

or play d=back?...

Who’s to say Hughes deal didn’t get restructured though

Nothing reported yet. And that still doesn't address the porous O-line in Jonestown.

And the Alouettes just loaded up their secondary...

 

Doesn’t Montreal literally not have a QB right now? Are they honestly banking on starting Freeman or trading for Manziel?

Correct, and they left Drew Willy out twisting in the wind.
