Maximum Value for our 1st & 5th picks
Because if you're including trades, then it's not the correct order. It's only correct for the rest of the draft if you ignore the 7 other trades and one forfeit that have already happened. He was clarifying that this is the order for the draft on the whole, before trades, not just the 1st round.

Random Death Notice 2016
Could have gone in the football forum I suppose since he had a cup of coffee with the Argo's in 2004. http://www.cnn.com/2016/12/06/us/heisman-winner-nfl-rashaan-salaam-dies/index.html

Maximum Value for our 1st & 5th picks
Which is why he said not including trades. BC would be at #3 if trades were factored in.

Probably the same way he reacted to the other 2 fighters associations that currently exist... with laughter. Having Bjorn Rebney (former head of Bellator) involved is scaring a lot of fighters away. His reputation is not one that is very fighter friendly (just ask Eddie Alvarez). The fact that there are now 3 competing associations just divides the fighters and makes them easy for the UFC to ignore. If they were a strong united group it might be different.- Quarterback Quest
But if they already knew he wasn't coming back, why bother? It could very well be that the club wasn't sold on him but he could have been looking for a better chance to play. He was the number 4 qb here and didn't come close to seeing the field. He probably has a much better shot in Regina.- Quarterback Quest
He was going to be a free agent (like all our QB's) so maybe it was apparent to the club that he wasn't going to be re-signing. Having him on the active roster would have meant one less spot for someone who was actually coming back.- The TV Thread

Wish Reed would have come back to us in the 1st place back in 2014, instead of going to Hamilton. He was on our PR in 2013 but we released him so he could sign with the Dallas Cowboys.- Grey Cup Sunday

One upside is that it probably means someone (Toronto or Saskatchewan?) will have to over pay for his services next season.- First post 'expectations in '17'
So when attendance was terrible at the old stadium, what was the excuse then? If you look at the numbers from the late 90's, the attendance sucked worse than they do now and they didn't have to compete with the NHL either.- Will Calgary become a "Dynasty"?

Calgary & Toronto have both won 5 of the last 25 cups. BC, Montreal & Edmonton each have 4 (Montreal's number includes the year Baltimore won).- More CFL Tidbits

Given the price they paid, I almost think they are stuck with Willy (at a reduced amount or not). Can you imagine the reaction here if we traded away the 1st overall pick and then cut the guy we got in return after a couple games? Then again, Toronto doesn't have any fans, so who would actually care?- First post 'expectations in '17'
This is what I have done for every game save the first couple while we were figuring things out. Very easy to get in and out. Walking gives you time to polish off a couple beers too!- Trade Barker & Milanovich for O'Shea & Walters?
Yes, but the part you bolded was in reference to Drew Willy not Ray.- Trade Barker & Milanovich for O'Shea & Walters?
Not a good comparison. Injury-free back-up looking for a chance to start versus a former starter with injury/performance issues trying to resurrect his career. How would Barker know that a 37 year old QB would be more susceptible to injury? Common sense might tell him that or the fact he missed 36 games over 5 seasons would be another indicator that he should probably be planning for the future. He let 2 guys walk in a 3 year span where Ray was already having health issues. The fact that he got absolutely nothing for either guy and then completely over-pays for Willy just makes it all so much worse.- Trade Barker & Milanovich for O'Shea & Walters?
Barker all day. Walters, in hindsight, may have made a mistake but he not only corrected it but he added the 1st overall pick. Barker paid a high price for a broken QB and now he's stuck with him and that contract. - US Open Carry Laws and Gun Discussion
