Walters wanted to keep Glenn, it wasn't until Glenn decided to seek opportunities elsewhere in Jan. that a roster spot opened up.

We don't know how upset Walters was over losing Bennett and if he looks to be a better option than #4 it could be on his agenda. Besides Davis is a big question mark and Lefevour is a temporary place holder so the QB situation behind Nichols is still pretty fuzzy.

He'll probably end up on the P.R. in Sask., then the Bombers can poach him back without qualm.

This from the Riders mini-camp. Murray McCormick ✔ @murraylp It's all about @VinceYoung10. Rookie Bryan Bennett looking best among 5 QBs. Accurate passes with zip. #riders.

Look on the positive, the CFL now has another strong franchise instead of a weak sister. The expansion draft worked well.

I see john Rush is listed as a FB already. Could be his first step to becoming a ST lifer, he probably won't have to worry about playing LB or ever getting on the field at FB.

Agreed, take the gender right out of it and enforce physical violence equally, that's the simplest solution. Making excuses for women to be able to hit men sends the message that this is a grey area and that some levels of physical violence are acceptable. Kids can learn this message, time for adults to learn it as well.

I'm hoping by the end of the draft Evan Gill ends up on the Bombers roster. If nothing else he would be great on ST.

Bilukidi done with football?
When you think of it, hard to criticize him for choosing retirement. Made $2 million in 4 years and preserves his health for the remainder of his life.

Bilukidi done with football?
This article appeared in the Ottawa Citizen today, good timing. http://ottawacitizen.com/news/local-news/why-nfl-player-christo-bilukidi-left-the-big-show-to-come-home-to-ottawa The following quotes are pretty definitive. It wasn’t tough for Ottawa’s Christo Bilukidi to walk away from a $760,000 NFL contract. Not at all. When the 6-5, 300-plus-pound defensive lineman left in the middle of the New York Jets training camp last August — after earning about $2 million in four seasons in the National Football League — Bilukidi just wanted to come back home, where he knew he could find happiness both in his heart and in his head. “I fell out of love with the game,” the 27-year-old said. “Going to practice wasn’t fun. Going to meetings wasn’t fun. I was going through the motions instead of having the drive to play. “I remember talking to Richard Seymour my first year in Oakland — I was his backup. We were having breakfast and he told me, ‘Whether you play two years or 10 years in this league, there will be a point where it isn’t fun and that’s when you have to walk away. You can’t be 99.99 per cent in, you have to be 100 per cent in.’ “When I was with the Jets in training camp, I was in a meeting thinking, ‘I don’t want to be here.’ I told my agent. He said to take a couple of days before making a decision. So then I pulled the trigger, I told my agent to let the Jets know I was leaving. I got a call from the defensive-line coach. He told me I had an opportunity. I told him I appreciated that, but football just wasn’t for me anymore.”

Frick, all the more reason to ban fighting from hockey, the majority of the players that come down with CTE have been enforcers. Rick Martin being the exception but he played without a helmet for most of his career.

Paying a receiver $250,000+ is not really feasible, can't see many of those contracts being offered in the future. Bowman, Green, who else is being paid that much to catch balls?
