TJ Heath was a steal when we traded for him for a starting QB...

As part of a package including the 1st overall pick...

Time has shown that Heath is a bit of a free lancer, and is a pretty poor tackler...

Heath is pretty high event, makes big plays for both teams.  Our secondary had been better without him and he’s certainly not worth the cap space when you can get guys like Fogg, Alexander, Fenner for less.

And I think time has revealed he wasn't really traded for a 'starting QB'

I don’t know know much about Ryan Bomben but even if he’s a fringe starter or 6th man.... as a Cdn o-lineman he’s worth far more than an import DB.... just further proof kavis has no idea what he’s doing doing...

He's much better than that:

Bomben has started 54 CFL games, named a CFL East Division all-star the last two years and is playing the final season of his contract.

One of the comments in that article is that Bomben "just built a new house outside of Hamilton, he was not resigning in Montreal. Reed probably tried to extend him and found out what his plans were." So maybe it wasn't such a dumb move by Reed.

This further hurt Riders Canadian content.

Not really he was getting less than five carries a game

It's a hit in the sense that they now have to keep 2 Canadian receivers on the field at all times ... can't rotate in Messam to put Duron back on, which I think they started doing last week.

Trade them Augustine for 2 or 3 1st round picks.

Riders bring in a DB that may be worse than Duron Carter

See, but no touch.

Meh.

Um what if you get permission to tape it? Asking for a friend.

Zach is back. 

but for how long? 

So

3 OL (Labatte, Clark, Bladzek)

1 DT (Evans)

1 LB (Hurl or Judge)

1 S (Edem)

1 WR (Stanford)

as the 7 NI Starters for the RIders with precious little behind them.
