I'm afraid we may not have a first round pick this year. Some guy at Riderfans apparently has some information from the CFLPA that suggests we are 800k over the salary cap last year. We will lose all our first round picks and have to pay a multi million dollar fine. LMAO...the **** these guys come up with.

Dressler got 175k, perhaps that is what you are thinking of.

I agree. Especially with his injury history. I'm not sure who reported the 185k but I saw 3 different numbers and none of them come close to 200k.

On September 1st, 2016 Penton reported in the Sun that Smith's salary had a base of 62k. I can't imagine any scenario where we would have given him a further 120k in bonuses. I think the 118k sounds about right.

I think you are not remembering correctly. I will try find the tweets for you.

I think the way Jones signs high profile players only to cut them later that the odds of that are high. My guess would be Collins being the odd man out.

I think they knew about this when they signed Stafford.

I heard it was closer to 300k. Seriously though...two tweets by CFL insiders at the time of his signing had him making 118k and 140k respectively. He was nowhere near 200k.

I would select Bladek ahead of Gray. I know everyone loves the hometown angle but I think Bladek is the better prospect.

I always get a little upset when music, fun, football, and beer drinking get in the way of a good book. No matter how hard I try I can only get in a few pages a game.

I would have gone into that room of 23 people, grabbed a plate of chicken wings taken a big swig of Grey Goose and left. Better than standing a chance that Chris Jones drafts you to his version of cirque de soleil.

The room they were using was their dorm. That's why they were there. Bunk beds everywhere.

I think you're confused. That's a Saskatchewan groom's wedding rehearsal.

Chris Jones/GM is the best thing to happen to CFL forums since Mike Kelly. We can all sit and marvel at his brilliance when he drafts Mason Woods number 2 overall and immediately converts him to a LBer.

Nichols doesn't strike me as a guy who is gonna Nealon Greene the league.

I made Migs an avy bet once that he reneged on. However, I will cut him some slack because avy bets are hard for him to honor due to his banning history and perpetual need to deny that he is Migs.

An ex-Rider getting even a modicum of respect after he leaves to a divisional rival means he must have played all right.

I dunno maybe chasing a dog with a bucket of chicken tied to it's tail.

Apparently they had to ask Brendan Labatte for one of his jerseys for the signing today.

According to Riderfans he can run a 4.3/40. Those guys crack me up.

Derek Taylor is an idiot....or he is just looking for some clicks by making an outrageous statement. Either way it compromises the integrity of the prediction.

And over at Riderfans the Jonestown boys are now heralding Vince Young as a cross between Warren Moon and Doug Flutie. LMAO Rotor is defending this like it was his mother who signed Young. Just bizarre.

I don't but hope I'm wrong. I think the level of NFL interest in him is exaggerated.

I like the idea of going BPA but am nervous about the depth we have in the trenches. I think DT may be a better pick, but there are still way too many variables in play right now.

I can go fetch gbill for ya so that he can end the debate by taking a number one of us wrote at Riderfans and then announcing it in a way that suggests it came from a solid secret source he has. Lol
