There's something like 9 starters unsigned.

I know some of them include people that a lot of you want to see replaced, but having that many new players come in at ones is goin to have some detrimental effects on this team.

TC is going to be crazy.

I think most teams are facing this issue - so there’s that.

For sure, still going to see guys look at all their offers (if any) and accept what Walters has out there. 

[Noeller]

Also just because those 9 are unsigned at this second, doesn't mean they're gone for sure. Lots can happen in the next two weeks.

I mean sure but bad players are often free agents. I don’t see a lot of their guys getting offers from other teams.

Boris Bede not coming back to the Argos....

O'Day is genius. Only sign players no one else wants.

Toronto making moves in other areas? Didn’t want to pay up for a kicker?

O'Day dumped the majority of blame on CD, no here left to hide.

I wonder if we’d consider bede actually. Great year last year as a kicker, can do all 3 jobs, biggest leg and best kick off guy in the league. Sergio is a better kicker, but bede might be cheaper. I’d really love to see a consolidation of the 3 jobs, even if it’s a di for all 3. But we really need to improve punting and kick offs. 
 Be hilarious if we re signed legs. The head explosions around here would be epic.

I don't know about being cheaper, but if we could not waste the roster spot on multiple guys that'd be great.

Though, how many globals do we need to roster?

I'd make that move to free up another roster spot...that punter experiment from last yr should be buried never to.be.seen again

Was making a joke about how all of Toronto is going to follow mace.

If they change kickoffs Bede is not nearly as valuable. His kickoff length were invaluable to the Argos.

Bede can change a game with his leg. Would be worth it as a DI. Castillo, while a great FG kicker, is not a punter and is a pretty average kickoff guy.

Maybe they could coax Rudy Linterman out of retirement. He was best ever long kicker.

Problem is that goes both ways with Bede, especially if he's punting.  He's very slow as a punter.

Don’t underestimate how much players don’t want to live in Regina. 

[greenrider55]

Oliveira and Ouelette are interesting studies.

The NFL had a RB committee form this offseason where they griped with how much they’re paid. RBs tend to become very beat up by age 30, sometimes younger.

I personally wouldn’t pay a RB top dollar unless it was a Christian McCaffrey type where they can be just as valuable as a receiver.

They'll probably make a play for Castillo.

If you can lock up the core of a team that went 6-12, you just have to do it.
