Floyd Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 The Steele signing is a massive overpayment by Jones.. some GM needs the courage to be the first stand up and try to restore balance to the market. bearpants, WildPath, SPuDS and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but the NFL seems to have shifted it's attitude from it's not worth the trip to Canada to making sure no player slips thru the cracks, so a post-draft contract offer and a trip to a training camp would fit with what they've been doing lately.

Having 2 first round picks will cost a bunch too. The Riders seem to spend like drunken sailors. We hear oh they have room because Durant's gone. Then they go out & sign a slew of veteran players in free agency. I don't get it. When will the cap audit of each team come out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riders have done nothing but sign other team's cast offs. They have recruited no one with how many scouts? And they want to hold a tryout in another CFL city. Jones is either oblivious or has industrial size balls that say F U to the test of the league. Either way, loose cannons shoot themselves in the foot eventually. wbbfan, Stickem, voodoochylde and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you said, eventually he'll screw up so bad he'll be fired. Edited March 8, 2017 by SpeedFlex27 wbbfan and SPuDS 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnzo Posted March 8, 2017 Report Share Posted March 8, 2017 Who did they think they'd find with an open tryout in a Canadian city? Could there be national cfl-level players flying under the radar? Seems unlikely. bearpants and SPuDS 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
