Imo, one or both of wilson/chase will be let go. I think it’s an indication that we won’t go after a vet fa like powell.

 Elgersma will depend on nfl interest. 

Not socks? 

The fact he’s getting multiple mid season work outs tells me it isn’t. Maybe it closes before our camp and he comes up, but i think chances are as good that if he wants to be a camp invitee in the nfl next year that he will get it. If he goes that route, I could see him in the ufl this year. Frankly i’d be good with him going ufl then nfl camp and maybe being here mid season if he doesn’t catch on. I just hope he doesn’t end up sitting not getting tc/practice reps. 
I think he still has a lot to gain from high level coaching and practice reps. 

I doubt he goes UFL. He either gets a camp offer he likes or comes North. The UFL offers no QB any realistic chance at looking good enough.

Elgersma's NFL door is closing, but he and his agent may be reluctant to admit it.

Never heard anything like that happening before 🤪😉. Let me guess what happens next. After burning through a few more NFL spring camps he joins the Bombers as a late TC addition (I hope) 👍🏻😁

Think if he could sign a $200,000 a season for two year deal he'd be holding out? The CFL has to re-think this ridiculoulsly low rookie cap. It's okay for the special teamers with little or no talent from U Sports who make a name for themselves running downfield at full speed banging & crashing but have no hope of ever being starters. For legit, talented prospects, there should be leeway for any team to pay these rookie within the structure of the salary cap.

Any of our own potential free agents that you are hoping KW brings back? Castillo and Holm come to mind to me.
