Figured it would be nice to keep all the non-Bomber dealings of the offseason in one centralized thread ... I'm sure there are exceptions for the BIG stories having their own threads as they come up, but for all the daily tweets and information, we could keep it condensed to one thread.

 

One rumor I saw yesterday from Drew Edwards ... WR Greg Ellingson to Ottawa to reunite with Henry Burris - would be a good move for Ottawa

where is Penton? Trying to learn to like women's soccer?

uhhh yep. As a bomber fan I'm glad they have stamps and lewis. Lewis is no longer a threat, and stamps is likely on the back side of a great career. Anyway you look at this, it's a big lose for that team.

I'll say it London is over rated and was crappy last season. No big loss.

Lewis is definitely better then him even though he's only got a season or two left in him.

Thanks. Not sure when I did that. Must have accidentally hit that button.

Forgot they have SJ Green too

That can't be right. Rider fans were saying since last year that he was going to be playing in Green this year.

Green is very good but without much support I dunno. I think Lewis is done but stamps might have something left to prove. He may not be the stamps of a few years ago but he's still a threat out there

I don't think Green/Lewis/Stamps is as good as Green/Carter/London

Well Carter is a big loss,  but London really hasn't done much aside from one good season.   He averages about 500 yards a year and about 2 TDs....   Kohlert and Kelly put up better numbers then he did last season! 

Sounds like the Riders are banking on Emery not being terrible.

Good luck with that.

Tough break for #BCLions Hunter Steward. Out 6 weeks with foot injury. Projected starter at LT, will force team to alter ratio plans. #CFL

I hope Emery and the rest of that D have 3 terrible games (June 27th, September 6th, September 13th.

The only time Emery is noticed is when he takes a cheap shot at someone.

Emry's best days are behind him.  I am not surprised he's playing on a Taman team.

Football players?  Even if that's generally true, age is only part of it.  Emry's going into his 8th season as a middle linebacker and he's had pretty significant brain trauma.  Wouldn't call that prime.
