pigseye Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 We need to rethink how we are spending our cap space. Guys like Medlock and Dressler aren't worth the money, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfranc Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 Good luck to Medlock finding another payday like he's receiving now. He's a talented guy but overpaid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodyT Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 Dressler I think will be back. Osh loves him and when playing, he’s as productive as anyone. Bigblue204 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, good but overpaid. Save some money on Dress and Medlock and find a MLB or improve NI depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is Dressler overpaid exactly? Guy has game breaking capabilities.. Only knock I have is his durability.. hardly think we overpaid for him. Medlock on the other hand, if he was money all year long.. no problemo but he wasn't. he struggled for the first time.. in what seems like ever.

Tracker Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 Much as I love Dressler, I hope we can find someone better than him, and every other receiver on this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigblue204 Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 Only Rec I'd like to see back at TC are Adams, Dressler, Givens and washington (I know, I think he deserves another shot though). The rest we should be able to find something better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueandgold Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 (edited) Dressler needs to come back, albeit on a smaller deal reflecting the injury risk that he’s becomes. Something around 125K seems fair. Medlock can get lost. Worst kicker, and worst punter in the league this year.

Medlock is the best kicker in the CFL even if he had a poor season. We also don't have a backup option at this point.. you wanna go with an unknown next season? I don't.. we've been down that path.

One of the only kickers with a worse percentage than Medlock this year, although on a much smaller sample size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueandgoldguy Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 Sean Whyte, possibly the best kicker in the CFL, has been injured almost the entire season in Edmonton. They managed to find a decent replacement. There are options out there outside of Medlock especially when we could probably pay a national less than 100,000 vs. the $185,000 paid to Medlock. Given a field goal percentage barely over 80% he has not earned his paycheck. $125,000 - $135,000 would be more suitable. I doubt anyone pays him more.

Arnold_Palmer Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 I'd take Dressler and Medlock back if the price is right. Obviously if they're expecting to be paid like they were this season I think it's time to move on.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he'll be at TC competing for a starting role next season. Should be interesting to see what happens with the kicking situation next season. Medlock won't be getting the $185K he did before, IMO. Fatty Liver 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
