17to85 Posted February 11, 2014 Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 My prediction ? Whomever gets Butler will be mocked by Riderfans for over-spending. Followed quickly by "he was never that good anyway" If he re-signed with a whopper raise ? "worth every penny" one of the most under rated players in the league.

JuranBoldenRules Posted February 11, 2014 Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 Looks like it's 2 - 3rd rounders. Kirk Penton @PentonKirk 3m #Stampeders ship NI DL Justin Phillips to #RedBlacks for two third-round draft picks. Phillips reunited with Rick Campbell. #CFL That is a really bad trade for Ottawa. They dealt swapped 3rds this year and handed Calgary a 3rd in 2015 (a good draft) for a guy at the end of his career who has never been more than a rotational DE and struggled to stay healthy for much of his career. They'll get less for Glenn. If this is how Desjardins is valuing picks, Ottawa is screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jpan85 Posted February 11, 2014 Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 Apparently Phillips asked for a trade to Ottawa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelownabomberfan Posted February 11, 2014 Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 Apparently Phillips asked for a trade to Ottawa. Well then Desjardins had no choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuranBoldenRules Posted February 11, 2014 Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 Apparently Phillips asked for a trade to Ottawa. Which makes it even worse for Ottawa. They should have got him for basically nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracker Posted February 11, 2014 Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 An imminent announcement expected about Bourke re-signing with the Larks. A swing and a miss (again). Sad, but not surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacquie Posted February 11, 2014 Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 An imminent announcement expected about Bourke re-signing with the Larks. A swing and a miss (again). Sad, but not surprising. The announcement is already official. He re-signed before FA started. Nothing anyone could have done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iso_55 Posted February 11, 2014 Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 I guess once Popp knew Emery was leaving he had more $$ to sign Bourke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty30 Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 I expect Montreal to go all out and try to sign Muamba if he returns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted February 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 I expect Montreal to go all out and try to sign Muamba if he returns. Could be, but I'm pretty certain Winnipeg will get him back. There are certain things teams can do to position themselves well to bring back a guy if he comes back from the NFL. Winnipeg has done all of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted February 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Muamba is never coming back I feel like you're probably right. Good for him though, he deserves it. SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zontar Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Verdict from Riderfans is in ....... Losing Butler is really no big deal because they already have great CDNs that can play LB and safety and, really, 150 thousand is too much, Taman was smart not to cave in to demands. Carry on...

Blueandgold Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Muamba is never coming back Agreed, knowing our luck we'll cut Cauchy the day before the Colts cut Henoc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
