Winnipeg had a strong offer on the table, and Westerman passed. Farhan LaljiVerified account @FarhanLaljiTSN Around 200k for Ted Laurent on a 2 year deal.

Against that, it does take a lot of cap space off of the table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m ok with JSK at middle LB and Wild at WLB if he can stay healthy. The secondary will be very different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueandgold Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 I heard a rumor that we're paying Demski 160K. I hope that isn't true, as it would definitely be an over payment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

voodoochylde Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 Happy about the Demski signing but, to me, this underscores the need for some sort of restricted free agency in the CFL. It's a bitter pill to swallow for any team to "lose" a draft pick after spending that rookie contract developing the player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't feel sorry for the Riders after they pulled the same crap with Brendan Labatte wanting to go home. It's part of the risk when you draft players. blue_gold_84 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has the potential to be the top Canadian receiver we've had in a while, but I wouldn't say it will be easy. Lots of hard work ahead. I'm not surprised at the salary rumour. The majority of the dollars go to the QB's and then the starting Canadians. It's all about supply and demand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 130k for Demski, not 160k ... still don’t love it. But we’re gambling on the potential. blue_gold_84 and TBURGESS 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
