Fatty Liver Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 Alex Hall signs with Roughriders ****! Didn't realize he was even available. Wonder why the Bombers didn't pursue? We gave him a "no thank you" late in the season this year. His asking price was insane. It's funny now that I read reports that we were after him in the Regina media. If so, we could have had him already, Not just Regina media: Kirk Penton @PentonKirk #Roughriders sign defensive end Alex Hall. The #Bombers were hoping to snag him. #CFL I stand corrected. Odd, because last year during one of the games shortly after Hall's NFL release, Irving commented that the Bombers had been in touch with Hall about possibly coming back and were floored by his asking price. He wanted a salary equivalent to John Chick. (We have since learned that is 200k per year), so the Bombers backed away. Wonder what changed? Did Alex reduce his asking price significantly or did we just have more money to spend this year? Could be neither I suppose and the Riders gave him his ridiculous ask. I would love to hear what the Riders are paying him. Alex Hall signs with Roughriders ****! Didn't realize he was even available. Wonder why the Bombers didn't pursue?

GCn20 Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 Well we knew the Riders were going to sign players at one point because they can't scout and are quite a bit short of a full roster. Just glad most of the signing are there own fringe players and other teams castoffs. Glad they didn't use the money to improve their club. Hall (if he can re-adapt to the CFL game) replaces Foley so that's a wash, and Emry was about as good as Kilgore last year. Despite some trumpeting by Rider fans today, I fail to see the improvement. Imo, they have done nothing to make themselves a better club thus far this offseason. SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They haven't done much to improve and kind of just filled holes more then got better.. Losing FA so far.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than that, they've retained depth similar to what we've brought in because we didn't have it in the first place. Let's see how things keep unfolding, though.

Outside of Bryant, none of them are earth shattering. BUT, Walters has a plan it appears and he is slowly putting the pieces together. The Bombers are going to be very much in the hunt this year. You already had a qb, rb and kicker from last year which was a good start. Are making moves to shore up the oline, which i'm sorry to say guys was really rough last year. Willy with more time means more points on the board which means more wins for you. You guys need to make some moves on the defensive side of the ball now. Hickman? I'm happy for you guys, its exciting when the team starts making moves, IN A GOOD WAY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17to85 Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 The biggest thing for the Riders is Durant being healthy. If he's good to go they're automatically a better team than they were to end the season. Remember their record before he got hurt? They've lost some depth this year sure, but that's always Tamans MO. They stay healthy they'll be a good team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted February 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 No doubt the Riders have gotten worse, though, in my mind. Their Canadian situation is a bit questionable. But so is ours and we think we have a good team, so let's just wait and see I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacquie Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 CFL News @CFL_News Alex Hall said his only serious offers were from the Montreal #Alouettes and #Riders. #CFL via @murraylp did volny ever make it onto the field? Yes he did. He played teams and had a few reps at RB last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
