It is no anomaly that the Riders suck - it's just a fact of life.

Lawler is making more. It was reported that Ceresna signed for 225k (he had turned down 275k from Toronto).

Not in my head it isn't!

Not to pump his tires in anyway shape or form but Houston was only released because of his recent legal issues. I do agree though that both guys gained from the position they were playing, to some degree.

Yep, she's from the area and continued to work there, even after he left the Elks so it's a much easier family life being in the same city.

KJG & Gittens as the top 2 receivers with Odoms-Dukes chipping in and then hoping they can uncover someone? Definitely not their strongest position at the moment.

To me, a lot of the signings (like Mitchell or White) are "might turn out well, might not". Vaughters should be an upgrade at DE too but he had a down year last year so we'll see.

Tiger-Cats sign receiver Kenny Lawler to two-year deal - CFL.ca

I think Walters may have set expectations higher than normal by saying they'd be more active this year. It hasn't really worked out that way - at least as far as big name FA's are concerned.

Hamilton has Lawler jerseys for sale already so I'm assuming that it's a done deal and just hasn't been officially announced.

They definitely did have issues for a long time over the Dr. Evil thing but yes they resolved that a few years ago after working together on a SuperBowl ad in 2021. https://www.audacy.com/national/music/dana-carvey-explains-strained-friendship-with-mike-myers

I don't care what team you root for, but if you haven't mocked Fajardo at some point in his career, you're not a real fan! 😂

Consistently bad seems to be the game plan.

Maybe the Seal is next?

Winnipeg isn't the only team to come into new money though. The other teams also have this extra money so why wouldn't they be willing to up their offers also?

I'm aware but he actually caught less than that. He was only targeted 21 times when he did play (about twice a game). When healthy, he was not a primary target in their offense.

If he stays in Hamilton, he's probably behind Woli on the depth chart. BOLO started 9 games last year on a team that loved to chuck the ball and he still only saw 21 passes go his way so he wasn't a main target for them anyway.

I can hear this post!

Yep, other teams have until the 9th to put forward their best offer. The Bombers would then have from the 9th to 11th to try to work out a better deal. That's assuming the other teams follow the rules but we know GM's are talking to players/agents when they aren't supposed to. The tampering window was supposed to get rid of that but it's just more of the same in the CFL.

Makes me wonder if they regret cutting Woli now? No getting him back since he wasn't a pending FA but that extra room could have made the difference in keeping him or letting him go (assuming salary was the reason for that move).

They have 2 hours to decide but otherwise that's correct. Free Agency Communication Window opens February 2 - CFL.ca
