17to85 Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 The way I understand it, a 2015 deal was already signed by Elimimian sitting in a drawer somewhere. So even though his deal expired today, he already had another one lined up to be filed with the league for another one year term. Instead of filing that, BC will file a new multi-year deal. If that's the case, it makes sense why he was left off the list. It's just a real odd thing to sign two one year deals rather than a multi year deal. I wonder what the logic behind that was... Something to do with trying the NFL if he wanted I suppose.
DR. CFL Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 Under the new CBA not sure why anyone sees a value in a multi year deal. The elimination of the option year means a greater potential for bargaining power when you could've come a FA every Feb.

gbill2004 Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 @CFL_News: Was also confirmed for me that the WR contract numbers around #CFL that @HerbZurkowsky1 reported on over a week ago are in fact correct.
bigg jay Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 Looks like Spencer Watt is heading to Hamilton.

Can you elaborate? Herb reported Getzlaff gets $225k per season. Apparently that's accurate, after much debate.

Personally,still feel that is one hell of a bust for that price..
iso_55 Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 Not so much a bust but Getzlaff is injured quite a bit. riders better hope Durant stays healthy or they are screwed.
Ripper Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 Not so much a bust but Getzlaff is injured quite a bit. riders better hope Durant stays healthy or they are screwed. And J Richardson, Emry, Watson. Its the roll the dice year for us. We apparently are just going to wing it from here on out.
The Unknown Poster Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 Bombers interested in Kevin Glenn. Hmmm.
Fatty Liver Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 Curtis Steele re-ups with Argos.
wpgallday1960 Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 Alex Hall signs with Roughriders
Booch Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 wonder if anyone picks up Grigsby??...
Doublezero Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 Bombers interested in Kevin Glenn. Hmmm. No thank-you to KG. Just no. If we can't re-sign Brohm then I'd rather have a raw rook than Glenn.
Fatty Liver Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 Alex Hall signs with Roughriders ****! Didn't realize he was even available. Wonder why the Bombers didn't pursue?
Jacquie Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 Alex Hall signs with Roughriders ****! Didn't realize he was even available. Wonder why the Bombers didn't pursue? Why do you assume they didn't?
GCn20 Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 Alex Hall signs with Roughriders ****! Didn't realize he was even available. Wonder why the Bombers didn't pursue? We gave him a "no thank you" late in the season this year. His asking price was insane. It's funny now that I read reports that we were after him in the Regina media. If so, we could have had him already,
Mike Posted February 11, 2015 Author Report Posted February 11, 2015 The Bombers did pursue Alex Hall. They also are apparently interested in Justin Hickman, who may be asking for a bit too much. Riders and Calgary were both also interested in Hickman, but they went with Hall/Boudreaux instead.

M.O.A.B. Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 Mike, any rumors who's remaining FAs the Bombers are dealing with right now ?

Odd, because last year during one of the games shortly after Hall's NFL release, Irving commented that the Bombers had been in touch with Hall about possibly coming back and were floored by his asking price. He wanted a salary equivalent to John Chick. (We have since learned that is 200k per year), so the Bombers backed away. Wonder what changed? Did Alex reduce his asking price significantly or did we just have more money to spend this year? Could be neither I suppose and the Riders gave him his ridiculous ask. I would love to hear what the Riders are paying him.
Jacquie Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 Scott Mitchell @SUNMitchell 14m14 minutes ago Per source, Stamps are close to coming to terms with former #Riders/#Ticats defensive end Brandon Boudreaux. #CFL #CFLFA15
