The draft is in May.

 

The chat room is full at 50. Please keep us less privileged posted.

 

Thank you

Something strange going on with the Curran situation.

Rennie Curran has signed with the Birmingham Barracudas.

I heard he was going to be a Shreveport Pirate.

Someone is definitely being facetious about Curran.

 

Could be negotiations playing out in the media.

 

Could be the truth.

 

Probably somewhere in between.

Riders are in even bigger trouble than we thought if McCormick is correct.

@murraylp: #riders sign Kevin Glenn. OK; OL Gord Hinse may be more significant. A starting centre is huge, if he stays healthy. #CFLFA15

I'm not overly surprised he signed in Saskatchewan but I would've thought Montreal would have been his first choice as he may have a crack at being the # 1 over Crompton there.

No matter the denials from fans in Sask., i bet there is concern over the state of Durant's elbow recovery. It's been reported he won't be throwing at their mini-camps, but they 'expect' him to be ready by June.

So, he may share the start in Regina, if only at the start.

I posted this in the Glenn thread as well:

@HerbZurkowsky1: I've always been led to believe the #Als' offer for Kevin Glenn isn't as high - unless his demands have come way down.

@HerbZurkowsky1: @ArashMadani Little playing time offered by #Als because, wait for it, he wasn't going to play!

Do you mean Migs was incorrect when he said that Durant would be ready to go for the playoffs last year?  Can't believe it, blasphemy!

Screw Migs. He's a mental case. Nutbar Rider fan. 

Wonder if Adebayo is worth looking at, hasn't done much - 26 years old, its now or never

Well we already have 2 NI DE/STer that has done better than him. Louie Richardson and Ivan Brown. 

 

 

Looking at Richardson's weight - 225lb, is that accurate? That weight is for well suited for a LB and not for DE, correct?

He has always been listed at 225 and I've always thought that was much too low.  He looks a lot bigger.

He was throwing darts....DARTS....40 yards downfield hitting receivers in stride. I wish the Bomber stadium came with glory holes that we could see what we want to see on game day.

I'll admit that I don't know what glory holes are and I'll also admit that I don't want to think about what they could be.

Don't google it with out a parental filter if you have kids around.

 

that being said- I had a good chuckle a few times in this thread.

Chris Thompson and Rod Williams sign with Alouettes. 

 

Tisdale, Brown, Parker, Hebert... That was already an ancient secondary.

Last year a Rider fan came on here in September or October and told us all that he had personally witnessed Durant practicing and that he was lights out and would be ready for the playoffs.

When challenged about the accuracy of these claims because the Riders do not hold open practices to the public, a backpedal of epic proportions began.

He stated that there is a hole in the fence at Mosaic stadium that he was able to peer through to witness this. This assertion was so ridiculous, and creepy at the same time, that even posters at Riderfans began ridiculing the claim, referring to this hole in the fence as 'the glory hole".

Glory hole has another meaning too.

Really? Explain.

I think Rider fans are better at explaining that especially since they were the ones who used the term in the first place. Rider fans: Someone who has too much time on their hands and an internet connection. 

I wouldnt mind taking a look at Adebayo there Floyd. Lee would be a big upgrade on Richardson as well. Richardson really struck me as a big time hot head last year

Looks like Brian Peters is now a Viking.

Nic Grigsby painted himself into a corner by signing with the Tiger Cats

Rider homerism seems to be at an all time high right now...

"THE WINNERS AND LOSERS:  It's too early to crown a winner in 2015 CFL free agency but because we get all wrapped up in wins and losses, it's prudent to look at what's gone on so far.  Clearly the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and Ottawa RedBlacks signed the MOST players and both clubs certainly upgraded their talent.  Not coincidentally both franchises finished at the bottom of their respective divisions in 2014 so they had to do something.

However, to me, the most intriguing free agent on the market was quarterback Kevin Glenn and I pointed that out on the SportsCage prior to the Feb 10 deadline.  So given the fact he signed with Saskatchewan, you'd have to think the Riders are near the top when you're deciphering a free agency winner.  Plus, they were able to retain all the players they were hoping to while the Calgary Stampeders were ravaged.

It's also interesting to note that two-time Grey Cup champion with the Stampeders, Nik Lewis, is still floating around in free agent space.  The Roughriders declared weeks ago that they have to interest in Lewis."

 

To summarize... signing Kevin Glenn = winning in FA so far
