Team has a long list of unsigned free agents.  Including Lemon and Odell.  

20% of cap on three players. I get they have lot of unsigned guys but those are going to be filled by rookies.

[bearpants]

BC's roster will be about 6-7 all-stars surrounded by rookies... if the rookies perform reasonably well, it will work... but if not, they will be in trouble...

Im expecting them to go with rookies at a lot of positions to make up for all of this.  Hopefully the AAF left some players over for BC to fill out the rest of their roster.

If thats what they do they are going to struggle in the first half of the season.

Ed Tait - "Expect the #Bombers to go back to starting three imports on the OL, with Manase Foketi moving in to right guard."

[Colin Unger]

Both Greg Ellingson and Jovon Santos Knox have agreed to deals with #Eskimos

Jee-zus... Did Marcel consult with his coaching staff on this?

[Booch]

I just wish Marcel would get his stories straight.

Jennings in Ottawa...  I guess a small upgrade over Davis.     Rider fans will be pumping the ZC bandwagon soon enough...

[Noeller]

Jennings and Davis in Ottawa is no better than Collaros/Bridge for the Riders, and might even be worse...

The Riders don't even have that right now though...

[Jimmy Pop]

Watch the Riders start Durant with a side of Glenn and Watford. 🤣

[Bigblue204]

I'll take Jennings and Davis over Collaros and Bridge.

[Dr Zaius]

Jennings has potential to improve, I could see taking a flyer at him.
Collaros/Bridge/Davis are what they are. QB depth with any of those 3 playing an extended time and you're in trouble

[Bigblue204]

I'm honestly not convinced Davis can't start in the CFL. He has shown a lot of flashes. Just needs the right fit. is it Ottawa? Likely not.

[Dr Zaius]

In the last 5 years Collaros has started 58 games, or 11.6 games/year average. He's pretty much Buck Pierce 2.0 at this point.

Eskiblow fans I'm sure are hoping they used up all of Reilly's durability.

Some Riderfans are calling for Willy...from a fetal position I presume.

The way his pylon of a o-line got him mauled... they might be right.

[Mr Dee]

Well, after all the migration of players from East to West in this Free Agent thingy, and the ensuing fallout surely to come, is it time to have only one division in the CFL?  

Hamilton must just be in a total happy emoji zone after today.

Barring disaster, they have a clear path to an Eastern first place finish.

[sweep the leg]

I don't hate Jennings as a qb. I think with a good oc he could be a decent player. I'd take him over Collaros. It's too bad what happened to him. He had star written all over him before the injuries got him.
