Mark H. Posted June 11, 2018 Report Share Posted June 11, 2018 6 hours ago, AKAChip said: I don’t necessarily agree on point one. Bond is literally the only guy his own scouting staff has brought in. Hardrick and Bryant shouldn’t fall under that category. Point two is fair but that’s certainly not something I’m arguing against. Point three is fair as well though I would argue that paying for free agents is the easiest part of a GM’s job. The scouting work is already done on these guys and teams don’t generally win based on the strengths of their free agent signings solely because it’s generally not a cost effective way of building. I don’t think it matters how he’s acquiring American OL. It’s just good to see shutdown tackles and guards out there, if they’re going that way with the ratio anyway.

Bigblue204 Posted June 11, 2018 Report Share Posted June 11, 2018 (edited) Meh. Understandable. He could be a kicker in this league. One injury or a few bad kicks away from a roster spot. Edited June 11, 2018 by Bigblue204 wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least that's what is being speculated. A 7 year Canadian veteran receiver doesn't come cheap. Mark F and wbbfan 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cut and pasted from an article at CFL.ca. I've added a link to my original post. Swayze Waters isn't listed because he was released almost a week ago: Edited June 11, 2018 by Jacquie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Duper Negatron Posted June 11, 2018 Report Share Posted June 11, 2018 Every is talking about what a great punter Menard-Briere was, but was anyone else concerned about the number of long punt returns against when he was punting? I wonder if directionally he wasn't that strong. Just speculating. SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big leg, needs refining. SPuDS and blitzmore 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaxon Posted June 11, 2018 Report Share Posted June 11, 2018 I see that Toronto released Evan Gill (Manitoba). They tried to convert him from D-line to O-line, but I guess it didn't work out. He was very highly evaluated out of college, but had some injury issues. It'll be interesting to see if he gets picked up somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jpan85 Posted June 11, 2018 Report Share Posted June 11, 2018 Medlock will get back to 2016 form. He looks in much better shape compared to last year. Medlock might not have a huge leg punting but he does not out kick coverage and usually is in the top half of the league in net punting.
