I'm surprised that Edm decided to stick with Walker and not Elingson Considering the year they both had. But hey, their lose is our gain!

I keep seeing the argument both in here and online that says "I thought the league had no money" or something along those lines in reference to high ticket salaries. People know that the salary cap doesn't change if you spend a good chunk of it on 1 player right? Like Edmonton doesn't get more salary cap room because of Lawlers contract....we all know that right? His contract does not reflect the financial situation of the CFL in general...again we all know that right? Also the revised history in the thread is cute. Lawler was far and away the best receiver in the league last year, while playing 1 less game. He's a big loss that will not be easily replaced. We can pretend that we have his replacement already here but history shows that likely isn't the case, ditto with Elingson coming on and being more productive.

Hammy also signed Jackson. Interesting irons didn't look elsewhere

You're assuming he doesn't already know this

Why would wade be needed? Would Oshea have a better handle on things, player relationship wise.....and if for whatever reason THAT relationship was torn, why would the club even want to bring Harris back?

If Moncreif doesn't land in SSK I'll be blown away.

I don't know if they can honestly. Not sure why Bob would think it would hurt the league...the team signing those yes...and maybe because they'll likely be less competitive than a balanced team that is what he meant...but otherwise I'm not sure how higher salaries is a bad thing.

They just resigned him. I don't think they're in a spot to spend money for fun.

I don't know...his 1st year and bit here weren't exactly stellar...coincidently our Oline also sucked then. When our Oline started to come together, Harris took off. It really does need to be both, not one or the other...unless you have a guy like Charles Roberts

I don't see how the Elks make any sense either. They have their starter and a solid back up who imo should be their starter over Wilder.

I thought it would be between them and BC. I also think he would be much more successful in BC. So if he lands in SSK, I think that's a win for the Bombers.

I know, they obvioulsy need to spend wisely. But they definitely also have a lot of room to play with. And I don't think Harris will command a huge salary.

DAMN!! I didn't know he signed for that! I legit thought he was called the million dollar man because he got 1M lol. I also didn't realize he was a potential #1 pick in the NFL draft. As a Cowboys fan, it worked out pretty well!! lol.

I think it's tomorrow at noon.

??? They don't need to have anything left until the end of the year. There is no FA salary cap.

I could see BC and SSK as options still. IF Lawler goes to the Elks, BC will still have room for Harris and another NI rb like Thomas Erlingson. SSK still has Lafrance, so so they wouldn't need to sign a back up. I think Harris goes back to BC to finish up his career where it started.

300k?!?! Holy hell...thanks for everything Lawler!

Yeah I know. A win/loss comparison between a starter and 2 back ups makes no sense is what I'm saying. I love Darvin when he's on. But if we're going to be calling out guys for dogging it on other teams....im not sure why we skip over Darvin. There were plenty of times throughout his time here where the effort level struggled, and again I'm saying that as a huge fan of the guy, but he absolutely takes plays off.

This might just be the most pointless stat line I've ever seen.

Duke signs for 260k! Lol. Wtf

He wasn't a top 5 rec last year. In any category....thats why you caught flak. and can anyone remember what he did in TO? Honest Question...was it over 1000yrd? saying that, I wouldn't be against signing him on a discount.

I've thought this many many times. Like IF this is the worst my generation has to go through, it's a ******* joke compared to what previous generations had to handle. Like they can't even be compared. Storming Normandy....or wearing a mask? Rationing your food....or ordering out instead of dinning in? Having your manufacturing business under the control of the government to help the war effort....or get a life saving medicine? and I know the comparisons are apples to apples....but if my grandfather had to listen to motherfuckers cry about masks and school closures and comparing it to what he did in the wars...I can't even imagine what he'd say....******* *******.

What I find frustrating is this sense that the entire world could be involved in a pandemic and there is some solution to it that wouldn't inconvenience or harm someone somewhere in some way. Like it's a ******* pandemic!! YEAH **** is gonna suck for a while!! It's gonna suck and or people are going to die...stop whining about it and help.

100% Stefanson will drop the vax card mandate by the spring if not earlier. And these hillbillys will claim it was there doing.

I don't put things into natural or un-natural categories. We've yet to produce matter out of nothing so as far as I'm concerned everything comes from nature. We manipulate it, but we're also nature....nature manipulating nature.
