  • The way this was worded I was hoping Paul Friesen was taking another job, no such luck

    The only thing that would've made this move perfect is if he had asked for a release, signed with the Riders, received a lofty signing bonus... then retired...

  • Good luck to Smith in the future....I'll always remember that Velcro catch and his spunky attitude...He hasn't mentioned anything 'health wise' for his decision but I'm guessing it had a lot to do wit

When he was injured last year his injuries were not concussions, were they?

Was hoping he'd be our dressler for the next 5 years.. oh wait, we have dressler!

Having Stafford and Denmark makes this hurt less.

Wonder if gurley is getting a call today. (unless he signed and i missed it) Isnt mcduffie still floating around FA too?

Interesting, I would think now with his available salary that was fairly significant and already budgeted into the SMS for this year could be allocated for a fairly significant free agent signing or more inclination now to draft the BPA  with our first 2 picks and roster them this year.

Personally I would be on the horn with Laing giving him Smith's money and a bit more and going all Import receiver

Could wait for some NFL cuts too. Some receivers won't make it to the summer and the Bobmers can be there to poach someone.

Mcduffie is currently a Cowboy. Not sure about Gurley

I wondered about Gurley myself. Wish Smith the best but the timing kinda sucks. If it is job related, not health related (which I doubt with his concussion problems last season) & he knew he had to make a choice I just wish he let the Bombers know a month & a half ago as there were some pretty good receivers available then we could have pursued. Having said that, he still has to look after himself first so he made the best decision for him & his family.

How much cap space did Smith frees up?

Going off of nothing more than vague memories and intangible goo, 120k would be my spitball.
