I know the team is stacked at receiver now, but you have to think that every team in the West is loaded with talent at receiver. The Lions receiving corp is very scary. Dressler, Jackson, Stafford, Adams would put them right up there too. I would be a veryy happy camper if we landed Jackson.
February 16, 20178 yr comment_249964 Would it be appropriate to say that we're interested in Jackson, but not in earnest?
February 16, 20178 yr comment_249965 Really interested to see how Montreal's all national DL works out... really think that's the future of ratio in the league - shift from OL to DL Has Cash signed anywhere yet?
February 16, 20178 yr comment_249966 Cash & Nevis would be a good combo in the middle. Although that could mean we start Neufeld at RT. Cummings, Hall works too. Edited February 16, 20178 yr by M.O.A.B.

February 16, 20178 yr comment_249971 Further to Drew Tate. CFL News @CFL_News RT .@ScottMitchellPM Stamps backup QB Drew Tate has a $40K bonus due March 1, per source. #CFL #Calstampeders 4:20 PM - 15 Feb 2017
February 16, 20178 yr comment_249972 Tate being outright cut would be a MASSIVE shake up to the landscape. Wonder if the Riders would jump in that or if they're committed to KG5...

February 16, 20178 yr comment_249974 Tate's release would be a big deal. Don't see him fitting in Edmonton or BC or with us.. Paul Wiecek will be so sad. Best fit I see is as Drew Willy's replacement in TO or QB1(b) with the Jonestown circus. Or maybe backing up Harris or Collaros out east? If I were Jones I'd definitely kick the tires on Tate, he's got more upside than Glenn. Edited February 16, 20178 yr by johnzo

February 16, 20178 yr comment_249981 1 Lions - Westerman signed with the Als. Could be two soon as Sinkfield seems to have suggested he would like to return to Hamilton.

The only ones I see really having not the greatest of FA's (and it's not even that bad) is the downgrade in Ottawa from Jackson/Williams to Shaw/Spencer but that is likely all about $$. And Hamilton - seems like lots of teams picking at the bones there. Everyone's losing their **** over on RF over the players brought in, but really so far I only see Dennis as a real good signing. Brouilette isn't all that great (even got me banned for saying as much lol) LaFrance has a lot to prove, Who is White? Owens is a waste of money in an overcrowded receiver landscape and I don't think he's got the burst to be a returner anymore. BC and Calgary, as usual locked up more of their own FAs then diving into FA. And with the lack of FA spending this year by Walters, I hope this is a good sign, that the grass is getting greener in our own backyard. I don't really have a clue what Edmonton is doing, signing Chambers and Lawrence are big ol wtf's Edited February 16, 20178 yr by Taynted_Fayth
February 16, 20178 yr Author comment_249983 Same site, same rough math; the most active recruiters so far have been: 7 Riders 4 Red Blacks 4 Lions 3 Argos 3 Eskies 2 Bombers 2 Stamps 2 Cats 1 Alouettes

February 16, 20178 yr comment_249997 I thought Jackson signed in Toronto? Also no chance in heck that we are going for him. If the Blue were to go for another receiver I assume it would be Fantuz since I think he's a FA....

I don't see that working for the Bombers.
February 16, 20178 yr comment_250001 Anyone think that Kohlert will find a new home? He fell out of favour last year when he forgot that he was playing football and not volleyball.

He fell out of favour last year when he forgot that he was playing football and not volleyball. Not much use for a receiver whose best quality was his hands, when he can no longer catch the ball. But I'm sure someone will bring him in... if not for training camp then later in the season.
