November 13, 20177 yr comment_304337 Maybe he is tired of the team he is playing for being almost good enough?

November 13, 20177 yr comment_304397 We need to rethink how we are spending our cap space. Guys like Medlock and Dressler aren't worth the money, imo.
November 13, 20177 yr comment_304400 Good luck to Medlock finding another payday like he's receiving now. He's a talented guy but overpaid.
November 13, 20177 yr comment_304402 Dressler I think will be back. Osh loves him and when playing, he’s as productive as anyone.

Guy has game breaking capabilities.. Only knock I have is his durability.. hardly think we overpaid for him. Medlock on the other hand, if he was money all year long.. no problemo but he wasn't. he struggled for the first time.. in what seems like ever.
November 13, 20177 yr comment_304428 Much as I love Dressler, I hope we can find someone better than him, and every other receiver on this team.
November 13, 20177 yr comment_304433 Only Rec I'd like to see back at TC are Adams, Dressler, Givens and washington (I know, I think he deserves another shot though). The rest we should be able to find something better.

November 13, 20177 yr comment_304451 Dressler needs to come back, albeit on a smaller deal reflecting the injury risk that he’s becomes. Something around 125K seems fair. Medlock can get lost. Worst kicker, and worst punter in the league this year. Edited November 13, 20177 yr by Blueandgold

Medlock is the best kicker in the CFL even if he had a poor season. We also don't have a backup option at this point.. you wanna go with an unknown next season? I don't.. we've been down that path.

November 13, 20177 yr comment_304498 Sean Whyte, possibly the best kicker in the CFL, has been injured almost the entire season in Edmonton. They managed to find a decent replacement. There are options out there outside of Medlock especially when we could probably pay a national less than 100,000 vs. the $185,000 paid to Medlock. Given a field goal percentage barely over 80% he has not earned his paycheck. $125,000 - $135,000 would be more suitable. I doubt anyone pays him more.
November 14, 20177 yr comment_304534 I'd take Dressler and Medlock back if the price is right. Obviously if they're expecting to be paid like they were this season I think it's time to move on..

Not this year though. For the pay hes making, hes gotta kick like last year. 12 minutes ago, SpeedFlex27 said: You want Hugh O'Neill kicking for the Bombers? Id rather give FMB a chance. Wouldnt castillo be a FA from ham as well?

I'm sure he'll be at TC competing for a starting role next season. Should be interesting to see what happens with the kicking situation next season. Medlock won't be getting the $185K he did before, IMO.
