Rod Pedersen says LBs Dean and Herdman twins going to the Riders

Will be picking up LS Mike Benson, a Winnipeger. Then let's get back on our regular routine.

I'm not comparing them to Micah Johnson. For sure he will cost a lot. And if he doesn't fit Walters’ budget those two are a cheaper options. They started games so the experience is there. Kinda like when we pickup Nevis after a year playing for Ham, no one thought Walters will pick him up.

I know that... but having 27 tackles/1 sack or 32 tackles/4 sacks is better than unproven.

Sleeper free-agency pickups in DT position are: Baron Woody (MTL) and Michael Wakefield (OTT) both started for their respective teams and have almost the same stats with Stove. I think they would be cheaper option than Micah Johnson.

thought I saw this picture before 😁

Should put Perfetti on the line with Connor and Dubois. Is it just me, but I'm feeling that dirty Tkachuk will injure one of the center tom.

I think we will win the trade because of this.

I'll take it with a grain of salt. Of course, he wont let other GM's to have a clue what he's planning to do.

Justin Medlock, K: Made 37 of 43 field goals and produced a career-tying best 44.5-yard average on punts in 2019. Tied a CFL record by hitting six of seven field goals in the Grey Cup. Contemplating retirement. Lucky Whitehead, REC/K-RET: Started 15 regular-season games and ranked second on the team with 52 catches, producing 521 yards and two touchdowns. Also ran nine times for 92 yards and a touchdown, while producing another major on a kickoff return. Did not dress in the playoffs. Chad Rempel, LS: The CFL’s longest-serving player suited up for 15 regular-season games as the long snapper, plus the West Final and Grey Cup. Thomas Miles, LB: A Winnipegger who played all 21 games in 2019, making eight special-teams tackles and four on defence. Won the team’s Ed Kotowich Good Guy Award, and is believed to be considering a post-football career. Daniel Petermann, REC: Dressed for all 21 games in his second season, started two and caught 15 passes for 118 yards and a touchdown. Kerfalla Exume, DB: An eight-round pick who made an impact as a rookie on special teams, tying for the team lead with 25 tackles. Maxime Latour, LS: joined the practice roster after Rempel got hurt in the Labour Day Classic. Played in the Banjo Bowl, two more regular-season games and the Western semifinal. John Rush, FB: Suited up for all 21 games, making seven special-teams tackles, one of them in the playoffs. https://winnipegsun.com/sports/football/cfl/winnipeg-bluebombers/look-for-bombers-to-stand-pat-in-free-agenzzzzzzzz?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter

My guess based on needs: Canadian LBers - we only have Briggs & Gauthier on the roster while 2020 draftee Rodgers is unsigned. Miles is testing FA. I can still see Miles coming back. But I'm curious if the Bombers will be interested on the Herdman-Reed twins. Canadian Receiver - we have Bockru on the roster while another 2020 draftee O'leary-Orange is unsigned. I can see us picking up at least one. Hope it's not Feoli-Gudino again. Devon Bailey is a big guy, Tevaun Smith had a good 2019, and Natei Adjei is very good on ST. Canadian DB - Maybe a return of Loffler?

It could be true that Walters did inquire on Johnson. He might have some interest too and and you know, to drive up the price as well. It could also the other way around (O'Day driving up the price), as well.

However, O’Day will have to best other suitors. For example, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers displayed an interest during the negotiation window in the defensive tackle.

@JCon https://www.google.ca/amp/s/3downnation.com/2020/01/07/teams-will-be-allowed-to-have-three-qbs-on-roster-in-2019-ambrosie/amp/ ”The new rule specifies a requirement of two quarterbacks, not a limit of two quarterbacks.”

Im thinking about that too. I can see the Bombers doing it and can use him in ST while rostered as the 3rd QB just like what they did with Bennett before. He’s a big dude at 6’5” 230.

I heard there were snakes in Ottawa.

Could be the Als

Connor Griffith... stats said he never played a game. I don't think we will rotate 4 DT on a game. We rotated 4 DEs but not DTs. So if the plan is to sign Johnson here, we will rotate 2 Richardson and Johnson and Jake Thomas (or a Cdn DT). Btw, we signed Nichols! A DB though. 😁

We carried 2 Amer DTs (Nevis & Richardson) in our Grey Cup year. I don't opposed to that but I prefer Sewell though. Also we need another (8th) Cdn starter to make it work. That year we have Kongbo so we have flexibility.

We have carried an extra Amer LB (Korey Jones) for the most part in 2019. So we might do it again this year.

Rumor says his hometown team (Montreal) will pursue him in free-agency.

I wouldn't mind bringing in Ricky Collins Jr. although not sure if O'Shea will like it. Just realized that Luke Tasker is a free-agent did he retired already?

Yup 2 starting positions left - DT and DB probably both Amer unless we want to go back Cdn on Safety (Ackie, Loffler are FAs) and some backups/STers some could be filled by guys on the roster KR (Amer) LS (Cdn) K/P (probably Leiggo) Cdn WR Cdn LBers Cdn DBs

I feel Maurice will win it. Tkachuck hooked Brossoit prior to the goal. Moot point now.
