There’s a ton out there OL wise, it’s probably the deepest position in FA. Lots of directions you can go, too. Patch up a spot for a year? Sure, sign a guy like Foucault or Gagnon or Boyko. Hope for a bounce back from a player who still has some prime years left? Go for McEwen or Beard if the price is right. Have an idea that you can take a younger guy and mold him into what you want? Go after McKellar, Richards or Hogan-Saindon. there are a ton of options at OL

Appreciate the updates guys.

Dom Wooganowski in the Hammer makes my heart break. Ugh. Forever a Bomber.

That was my joke, kick his tires he likely winds up on the IR

Hopefully not to hard as they may fall off.

Maybe nobody is overly keen taking it on due to...this ...or that....

Hard to argue with what they’re doing. Canadians and help in the trenches.

Ted says thank you very much. I’m gonna be pissed if it’s a team friendly deal over there. I never really thought he’d play for another team. It’s extremely disappointing.

I think it was pretty obvious after signing the guys we have that we weren’t going after McManis

I’m sure that they quite probably all are I’d love this. Be a very good way to potentially shift some spending.

I’d like to see us use fa to upgrade at RT. Three Americans on the line is my hope for this season.

Apparently fox tweeted out some thing cryptic about thanking the fans and franchise here. Sounds like he might be moving on one way or another. Love the talent, but woods passed him easily for sure plus with Lawson back this year it makes sense. A guy like ceresna you make room for, though I don’t think we will be in on him. I think it’s gonna be Thomas (groan) and Lawson in one spot with woods, hopefully adams plus a crop of young guys, plus vaughters taking some inside reps plus the 30 front base reps. Then Willy vaughters and Garbutt going into camp on top of the edge reps with a crop of rookies. I think our penny pinching for FA spending will mostly be more bargain oriented guys like Mitchell.

Yeah. Let's bring Couture back.

Seeing as the argos have lost Ormilade, Ceresna, Holley, Brinkman and Smith this offseason, maybe we can trade them Jake Thomas

Lofton is a big meh to me.

We need to avoid shiny baubles and make sure our OL and DL return to being dominant again. Everything else will sort itself out if we do that. Jake Ceresna would be a great fit for our 3-4 defence

and they still have Fajardo, hes still a starting caliber qb

And there’s the problem they’ve spent all this money on almost all of the right things, building a solid OL to protect their QB and building a solid defense to get the ball back into the QB’s hands one problem the QB is still Tre Ford

That's some great work by Edmonton. Now I need to go shower.

Looks like the L's are winning FA again.

If you don't want to play for the best organization in front of the best fans in the league you can F O

Tyrell Ford has agreed to a 2-year deal with #Elks. As expected

All the best to Woli.

Toronto had to sign McManis, to not do so would be like us letting Beady walk

Yup...entry level American dozer at guard......150k to adRress DL/DE...Pooch Schmeck and Thomas at TC and tag an additional 240k or so to the kitty

Hopefully we get some good news when the tampering period opens later today.

Seriously? Isn’t this like saying I know you are but what am i? They are rubber and we are glue. Jesus some of you need a mental health break.

Well today is the day the Hervey window officially opens… it’ll be interesting to see if any signings are more or less official before FA opens.

What’s interesting to me is would have ZC been pissed if he had been pulled after his injury? My guess he would have been more disappointed than pissed which would have made it ironic in the explanation we received on why he wasn’t pulled. It was a head scratcher but onto 2025.

Yup...be interesting to see what the cgy escapees do...tho Rose has kind of hit skids last couple seasons

It is very odd. About the only explanation I can think of is we have our guy and for some reason can't announce it yet, or we are waiting for someone and can't make it official yet. The longer this goes the more I'm starting to think it's Lapo and we are letting him fulfill some contract obligations first?

Gotta be honest, that whole team was a tire fire. Tough to know whose play suffered from others and who just sucked

Yea we need Lawler but it has to be with a shave

As some have already said, it doesn't matter unless the Elks get a legit QB. The way I look at, they probably don't make the GC with Ford at QB. Then, whoever makes the GC from the West, no longer has that vaunted Argos' DL to contend with.

He was alright for most part...continuity on line is good and he likely a transitional guy Our oline issue is smack dab in the middle...correct that...rest falls in line

The thread just got...exciting...

I'm OK with that if it means not signing bad contracts Apparently, and if so they are nuts.

you guys are right of course, i should have said Smith, and Korte so 7 starting cdns Metchie, Beard, Julien Grant. Gittens, Boyko, Smith and Ford - still a huge improvement

Ed Hervey is playing Mad Men right now. Though allegedly, Tyrell Ford came in at $230k.

Robbie Smith to Edmonton as well… As expected, they’re just signing everyone.

I hope not We lost Ford. We really can't afford to lose another quality Canadian.

David Beard and Brett Boyko (back) to the Elks

Hey we're busy over here still washing the argo stink off JJ. It's going to take a bit.

We're trying to get home from Mexico and after 6 delays, 2 cancelled flights, a re-route through Edmonton (where we're still waiting/hoping/praying), I think I can safely say yes F**k WestJet. On the plus side, when our direct flight to Winnipeg was cancelled & they had us overnight in Edmonton, WJ was kind enough to give us hotel vouchers... for Vancouver hotels only. 🤔

$105k was a pretty good deal for a solid Natl. receiver and glue guy, still don't understand why they let him go.

Not surprised at all. Will be interesting to see what he got.

He just did
