    My mom went into the bomber store years ago to buy me a jersey and Moreno was in there.  She met him and said he was a good looking fella so she bought me his jersey.  So pretty much I got his jersey

    I hate that ******* ginger with a fiery passion for all he did to us over the years..............but............I respect the hell out of him as a CFL QB.

And weren't we ridiculed for signing Medlock to a large contract? A guy who actually puts up a ton of points on the board?

If Ryan could punt and kick field goals on top of being Canadian he would be worth $100k.

If Ryan could kick FGs even at 80-85%... he'd be worth 200k...

Thing with Medlock is he is absorbing two salaries with his one salary being able to do all 3 facets of the kicking game..and as being one of the best at it...he is making basically a very modest salary at each when you break it down, so really we are saving money when you look at it

I believe it was reported he was making around 175k... so the way I always look at it is we're paying around 75k for an average punter and around 100k for the most accurate FG kicker in the league... seems like a good deal to me...

    I think you are referring to numbers in his original contract...he took a shave last year and I believe for this year he is under 160k...either way though...good value none the less for a guy who is tiops in his league at his position taking 2 jobs

    They are massive question marks about depth everywhere for every team in May 

    I've said from the day the Lions went on a FA spending spree... their season will be made or broken by their rookies... They have a ton of top end talent... it's a matter of how well their rookies/bottom end players perform... If they can find a few good rookie gems, no reason they can't compete for 1st in the west along with Calgary and Winnipeg... and Sask (haha, just kidding)...

    It'll be interesting to see Ed Hervey, John Hufnagel figure out how to make their QB salaries fit in a cap that hasn't moved and minimum salaries going up by 10k. Have fun! #CFL

    yep. good luck!

    The problem is that the next batch of FA QBs will want the same deals...  I could see Sask paying big for a QB... or teams will start hiding 'incentives'
