TrueBlue Posted January 28, 2015 Report Posted January 28, 2015 Surprised SJ didn't want to test FA to be honest.
Noeller Posted January 28, 2015 Report Posted January 28, 2015 Zurkowsky just tweeted that the presser he thought was to announce signing Austin Collie is actually for the re-signing of SJ Green. He also says that Collie is drawing interest from teams out West. My powers of deduction say that means he isn't signed by the Als yet. Ooh, a surprise ending. What a twist!
sweep the leg Posted January 28, 2015 Report Posted January 28, 2015 Surprised SJ didn't want to test FA to be honest. Als probably realized how screwed they'd be without both he & Carter so they gave him everything he wanted.

Als probably realized how screwed they'd be without both he & Carter so they gave him everything he wanted. According to Popp last week they had an offer sitting on the table that would make SJ the highest paid non-QB in the league. Sounds like he got everything he wanted alright.
johnzo Posted January 28, 2015 Report Posted January 28, 2015 Worth the money. Is there a receiver in the league who helps out his quarterback more than S.J. Green? Those heroic catches by Denmark that we all remember -- it seems like SJG does that kind of thing on a weekly basis.
NotoriousBIG Posted January 28, 2015 Report Posted January 28, 2015 Edmonton Eskimos ✔ @EdmontonEsks OFF THE MARKET The #Esks announce the contract extension of DT Donny Oramasionwu Dang! Rather middling player when he was here. Methinks he's simply flourishing under Jones. Not too upsetting. Brandon 1
Mr Dee Posted January 28, 2015 Report Posted January 28, 2015 This just in... #believeatyourownperil - Reports are now coming in that the rumour that Samuel Giguere is off the market is untrue, and have heavily denied any links to Rod Black being involved in any such claims.
Atomic Posted January 28, 2015 Report Posted January 28, 2015 Edmonton Eskimos ✔ @EdmontonEsks OFF THE MARKET The #Esks announce the contract extension of DT Donny Oramasionwu Dang! Rather middling player when he was here. Methinks he's simply flourishing under Jones. Not too upsetting. Well he only played 2 games last season, so "flourishing under Jones" might be a bit of a stretch.

Noeller Posted January 28, 2015 Report Posted January 28, 2015 Now he says it might be for both Green and Collie @AKCollie_10 Don't believe wht u hear. The report of me plying for Mtl is completely false.”
gbill2004 Posted January 28, 2015 Report Posted January 28, 2015 SJ Green signed a 3 year deal with the Als.
Blueandgold Posted January 28, 2015 Report Posted January 28, 2015 SJ Green signed a 3 year deal with the Als. I wonder how much money he got.
gbill2004 Posted January 28, 2015 Report Posted January 28, 2015 SJ Green signed a 3 year deal with the Als. I wonder how much money he got. He turned down a 3 year $600,000 offer a few weeks ago, so my guess is somewhere between $200k and $250k per season.

So is that idiot Madani tweeting about Jim Popp ruining the league with such a high offer or is that reserved for Desjardins?
Mr Dee Posted January 28, 2015 Report Posted January 28, 2015 So is that idiot Madani tweeting about Jim Popp ruining the league with such a high offer or is that reserved for Desjardins? Well, the difference is Popp has been doing this for a very long time…and he seems to know what he is doing. He's put a successful product on the field and he retains his better players. He must be doing something right.
gbill2004 Posted January 28, 2015 Report Posted January 28, 2015 I wonder if Ocho Cinco will be back with the Als.

Rod Black is likely parked outside Giguere's home with binoculars as usual.
CodyT Posted January 29, 2015 Report Posted January 29, 2015 I wonder if Ocho Cinco will be back with the Als. Was he even playing half the season? Lol I don't remember him seeing the field much..

Jacquie Posted January 29, 2015 Report Posted January 29, 2015 I thought I saw it posted here but I can't seem to find it. So in case anyone didn't hear, S.J. Green re-signed with the Als: http://www.cfl.ca/article/going-nowhere-als-lock-up-wr-green and Austin Collie was not signed by the Als: Drew Edwards @scratchingpost 7h7 hours ago Oh my. RT @AKCollie_10: @JakeHatch77 Don't believe wht u hear. The report of me plying for Montreal is completely false. Farhan Lalji @FarhanLaljiTSN 7h 7 hours ago Austin Collie is not going to #Als but he is in discussions with other #CFL teams. I wonder if Ocho Cinco will be back with the Als. Was he even playing half the season? Lol I don't remember him seeing the field much.. He played at least 5 games. He was on the 1 game IR for about half the season. Some of his time on the IR was due to a concussion he suffered.
gbill2004 Posted January 29, 2015 Report Posted January 29, 2015 @CFL_News: It’s believed Green will receive in the vicinity of $250,000 annually...#CFL #Alouettes via @HerbZurkowsky1
gbill2004 Posted January 29, 2015 Report Posted January 29, 2015 WOW! What was Taman thinking? @CFL_News: #Riders Chris Getzlaf had been #CFL's highest-paid WR, earning about $225K, prior to Green taking #1 spot...via @HerbZurkowsky1 #Alouettes

A productive receiver to be sure, but if he was worth that ungodly sum he sure managed to hide it from everyone else besides Taman. Good Grief...news of Taman's contract signing amounts just border on bizarre. I guess the Rider fans may be correct and they might very well have two 200k receivers in their lineup this year. They sure weren't counting on Getzlaf being one of them though.

Getzlaf is good, yes... but that is a ludicrous amount of money to spend on a 3rd rec...
