Fatty Liver

Who are you talking about? Lofton played for Ott., BC, Edm. Wpg. Sask. and now back to Wpg.

That can't be right, it would mean Bailey was being paid $160k or more at one time, I don't think he's ever earned near that much. It seems he's been perpetually stuck at the bottom of the pay scale his entire career.

I dunno, take it up with DT, pretty sure that's what he said.

I think Jackson was originally used at FB as a temporary solution until Mike Miller returned to play. According to Miller the team tried all season to get approval for his return from a chronic neck injury that would not heal. Approval never came so Jackson stayed.

Don't know if this has already been mentioned or not, but on "The Huddle" podcast DT said that over the last 3 seasons in the 10 games that Jeffcoat missed that Willie played in, he registered 0 sacks. He also added Haba had 0 sacks in games Jeffcoat did not play. If they can't replace Jeffcoats pass-rush straight up, they're going to have to rely on blitzing combos a whole lot more than anyone wants to see.

Right, I was thinking of Glenn January. Stumbled across another memorable name from the 2014 roster, Dan Knapp, a pre-cursor to Trent Corney.

The Hamilton Tiger-Cats have re-signed American defensive end Jamal Davis II for 2024, per sources.

Must be how a Rider fan feels, every year!

Only exceptional rookies step into the lineup in their first year, should be okay with a rookie receiver and the secondary but if injuries come into play, could be rough. Biggest worry right now is Grant and Castillo, ST will suck and blow badly if those two are not re-signed.

Reaching beyond Greg Peach, not a clue who the last one was.

Walters buggered the accountant when he signed Lawler when he already had Schoen in house at 1/3 the price. Years of careful player development walking out the door, starting over from scratch in a few too many positions. Exciting times await!

It's not good, how many holes do they have to fill? Team depth is walking out the door.

Walters said he doesn't expect to sign any CFL free agents in the coming days. "We just don't have any money," he said. "The spots that are available are going to be for training-camp battles for young players, for first-year players. If somebody wants to come in on a minimum contract, we might kick the tires on that."

Blue Bombers released 31-year-old fullback Damian Jackson on Wednesday as per Jeff Hamilton,

Which game was that?

Based on what? Have they ever put Dobson in at Guard? Dobson is a bulldog but I don't know how well he would do in pass protection as he's only 6'2". When Neufeld was out Tui took his place.

BOLO signs with the Ti-Cats who also recently signed Luther Hakunavanhu from the Stamps.

That's the most baffling aspect, kept Kola who plays at the edge of his abilities and lost Gray who has unlimited physical abilities plus versatility.

O-line depth has gone from deep to shallow, I imagine Tui takes over from Gray and Dobson remains the 6th man. More than one critical injury and they're down to using a CFL rookie to protect Zach. I can see Walters addressing this situation later in FA with a cheap if not great pickup like he did with Jeff Keeping, MB. boy Landon Rice is available and is at the tail end of his career.

Link?

Nope, Rhymes asked for his release, it's not a coincidence he landed back it Ottawa where he spends the off-season, owns a house and has a fiance that works for the Feds.

BC has done the best job of protecting their existing roster so far, other than Rhymes who was going home to Ottawa and Betts to the NFL, the only other player they lost was Cooper.

All things considered, having a flush toilet "is a pretty good deal for the Riders".

A meeting with Dickie and grandpa Huff, a quick tour of the facilities and a retreat out the door, concluded with a "**** no" before he got back to his car.
