    Remember when he drew Willie J.-level attention from us before signing as a fa with The Als.?

    The difference is, any seriously interested prospective teams had to submit their final offer to the league and the player’s association by noon. They can’t up the $ over the next 48 hrs.
  3. Pete Catan's Ghost
    There's only one person who can handle that job.

    Newsflash: it’s already died with 99% of posters. 3 zealots don’t make a fan base.

    Briefly maybe. Flute couldn’t sustain it, and he had already cemented his place as one of the greatest CFL QBs of all time, before winning back to back cups with T. O.

    Toronto (hypothetically) can want him all they want. The dangerous part is submitting the binding offer. It’s pretty risky tying up 250000-290000, while knowing that we have the final 48 hrs of sole 1:1 negotiating rights. Essentially, it would take them out of the bidding for other big ticket free agents.

    Does anyone know the status of our defensive coaches?

    Naylor claims to be hearing rumblings that Argos are going hard after Willie J. If this is true then they are going to have to submit a formal offer to the league/CFLPA. Once submitted, they are bound to it. This means that they have to be more careful with their $ because they are on the hook for his offer. This potentially take them out of the running for other top talent until Willie's camp makes a decision. Anybody who makes an exorbitant offer for another team's free agents will run into the same risks. The BB don't have to offer a counter until the last 48 hours, so they are in the catbird seat.

    3DownNation reports that the first offer during the negotiating window has been submitted. It's a Stamps offer for OL Sean McEwen. Even though there was no $ attached, I'm pleasantly surprised that it was made public. Hopefully there will be more to come.

    Tomorrow is the inaugural start of the CFL Free Agency Negotiating Window. There are a few things to like about this, not the least of which, is the standardization by which teams can communicate and potentially make binding offers with free agent prior to the formal free agency opening on Feb 11. The interested team's specific player offers are submitted to the CFL and CFLPA between Feb 2nd (noon) and 9th (noon). Now it gets good, because all offers will then be shared with the rest of the CFL teams before each team gets 48 hrs to negotiate with their own players.The player has the final 2 hours to mull over all of their offers before making a decision. Since this is the first go, I'm expecting glitches. Hopefully we're treated to some leaks along the way.

    Agreed. Orange played on 6 CFL teams in the last 4 years. Something smells.

    It's early days, but it looks like there will be no cake-walk to the Eastern Finals this year for Hammie. I'm more optimistic about there being greater parity in the East than I have for a long time.
  15. Pete Catan's Ghost
    I’ll defer to you on this Booch, but it seems to me that The Bombers would be one of the few CFL teams that would be strong players in signing him this year (if he’s released by an NFL club) considering how we are the only team that has an OC and playbook that would be able to insert him seamlessly.
  16. Pete Catan's Ghost
    I'm not ready to toss Darvin Adams aside. Not only does he already look rejuvenated as a pass catcher with Collaros, but he completely took Frankie Williams and Nick Marshall off their game during the Western Final and G.C.
  17. Pete Catan's Ghost
    ....except Gondola. There’s never been a problem with Gondola.

    Tighten up your laces Lucky. With BuckBuck and Collaros behind the wheel....the passing game is definitely going to look different.
  20. Pete Catan's Ghost
    Instead of signing Nichols, that money is better used to re-up Willie and Drake. Besides, if he does sign with the NFL, I'm not convinced Strev will make it past training camp.
  21. Pete Catan's Ghost
    If the BB still want him, this has got to be an incentive for Darvin to re-sign. He looked like a completely different receiver when catching passes from ZC....used much more effecctively.
  22. Pete Catan's Ghost
    At least now, there's no need to fret over the draft (since we owe the Argos our first rounder for ZC). Where does this put us at...18th pick?
  23. Pete Catan's Ghost
    This is the signing we needed. Anything else is gravy.
  24. Pete Catan's Ghost
    Maybe our new OC sees something in him that he likes.
  25. Pete Catan's Ghost
    Confirmed that he has signed a futures contract. As per Bleacher Report: Typically, futures contracts are minimum-salary deals with little or no signing bonus. Most players signed to futures contracts will be fighting for a spot in camp; teams aren't going to invest much into players who may well be cut the following autumn.
