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

Is this info. true?

TSN1290 (Gary Lawless) reported it was a base of 85k with incentive to 115k

With a small signing bonus to boot.

any body worth to be picked on the supplemental draft ?

 

 

Quote

 

The CFL is set to hold a supplemental draft on Tuesday, May 24, 2016.

 

At least three players will be available: North Carolina A&T tight end/receiver Kevin Francis, McMurry offensive lineman Rafael Gallo and Delaware State defensive lineman Jacob Tizzard.

 

Francis checks in at six-foot-five, 207 lbs. He made 17 receptions for 163 yards in four seasons with the Aggies. A two-sport athlete at North Carolina A&T, Francis ran a personal-best 14.24-second 110-metre hurdle time.

 

Gallo started at least 16 games for the War Hawks. He was on the power-lifting team in high school.

 

Tizzard was a defensive end and long-snapper for the Hornets.

 

 

Honestly, the only guy I see getting picked is Francis. Gallo hasn't played football since 2014 and he was an underweight offensive lineman with a minimal resume at a lower level university. Tizzard may get a look because of his long snapping ability, I suppose.

Francis at least strikes me as a guy who has athletic potential.

Rod is the absolute worst. What garbage. I love how he's not even just jokingly assuming the Riders will win the Labour Day game. The way he spins some of the things Denmark says to shine a worse light on the Bombers is just pathetic.

"Fire", meet "Gas".

It's sad that you guys let him troll you like this. He knows exactly the reaction he'll get, so he goes for it.....

His excitement is palpable, I believe he uses it to shine his own pecker.

hey -- he went back and edited...no fair!

It's not changed from original on your quote and mine ...  

Note to self:  Never reference a man's knob and use the word palatable in the same sentence!

Definitely can't begrudge Denmark for any parting shots at the Bombers. The guy was here for five years and played with ten different quarterbacks, with 3-5 of those QBs being complete no-hopers.

  I imagine Denmark feels he didn't deserve to get cut here. That he was fairly consistent amongst chaos for his 5 years

I somewhat agree, but the writing  was on the wall the moment Dressler and SMith were signed.

Totally true. Happens all the time around the league. Dressler is no doubt scorned by the Riders and will be looking to stick it to us when ever he can. Funny thing is, honestly, what choice did Jones really have?  In Denmark's case, highly unlikely he agrees to a substantial wage cut to stay in the Peg. It had to happen this way. Ego's and pride ruin more good things in life than anything else. I think about how many times I've backed myself into a corner because of pride. Good thing about aging is you don't always have to be right anymore, makes life a lot easier.

And he is Canadian, which is huge, and a hell of a lot cheaper than Medlock.
