...Lawless says Riders looking at Ottawa Asst GM and John Murphy as potential new GM. Have asked for permission to speak to both. Fwiw.

The CFL is going to have a hard time making the coming season as entertaining as this off-season has become.

The real question here is why do you have Rider fans on your timeline?

If there was a way to exterminate them from everyone's lives..............

@SUNMitchell

As of today, Weston Dressler has interest from the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, Toronto Argos and Montreal Alouettes, per sources. #CFL

Suffice to say, Bomber fans are not even a little surprised by Chick's contract.

@garrettbillan1 Chick to Ticats sound pretty much done. Dressler will have a bunch of interest and might let it play out for a bit.

 

 

I miss having an insane front 4.

 

Dressler does not drop passes or ever play inconsistent, I'd pay whatever it takes to get him.

Pass on Chick...only way I'd sign him is of he would take a discount to play close to his family which I believe is in Saskatchewan.

 

Dressler I'd take over Carter even... He would help big time.

260 for Chick... That crazy Taman!

Quite believable actually... this is rider fans we're talking about!

$240,000 is crazy for Chick. $260,000 is moreso. Wonder how much he costs Hamilton and if this means somebody comes free?

Dressler should sign with us, close to ND and a quality QB.

Always liked Dressler, hope he ends up here

The Cats are after Chick. They going to pay him 260k/ yr?   If not give you pathetic man crush on the riders a rest. 

I dont think anyone, including the riders are willing to go 260k for Chick, im thinking 200-225K will be his top offer, whether or not it matches or outbids what the riders offered remains to be seen

Nobody is a bigger Chick fan than me. He is a warrior. He is going to get 175-180 and that's it. He has one maybe two years left. He is a fool to leave here where he was set up for life after football

One I don't think Jones is a fan of small receivers. If I had a choice I would sign Ryan Smith over Dressler younger and same ability.  Chick would be nice he would get a lot less double teams might free him a bit.

I have a feeling if we sign Dressler Carter wouldn't be an option, not because we couldn't spend on both. But not sure we could sign both, plus a starting Cdn and an impact DL. So I'd rather have Carter over Dressler. But wouldn't be too upset if we got Dressler and not Carter.

I guess it depends one what were doing with Picard & Brohms $ + if we let Moore hit FA we could have quite a bit to make lucrative offers to a couple people

Oh man I would love to see Dressler in blue and gold, and he'd be way more than just a great target for our QBs. 

I bet Denmark would put up career numbers with a guy like Dressler drawing the heat.

I'd prefer to sign Ryan Smith over Weston Dressler.

Really sad to see Dressler and Chick go. Wasn't sure what I thought of it before, but it does relieve a lot of cap space. I'm hoping Dressler will go to an Eastern team, but if he goes to Winnipeg, I still wish him the best for you guys.

Since somebody mentioned it, I am probably going to change my username. Not because I'm bailing on Dressler (he will still be one of my favourite players), but just want something different. I've considered it before Dressler left anyway.

Part of the reason we released Dressler was likely to do with Smith. I doubt he goes elsewhere.

Rider fans should be screaming bloody murder at Taman for the completely idiotic contracts he gave those two. That being said, they would have went elsewhere likely otherwise. They were still being overpaid, though.
