January 27, 20214 yr comment_495939 This Sun (Jan31) starts the negotiating window between teams and other team's pending FAs. Window ends the following Sun (Feb7). Hope there are some leaks who are the Bombers will be negotiating with. Edited January 27, 20214 yr by M.O.A.B.

Masoli & his agent are nuts. He could have gone & been the man for another CFL team with more $$$ thrown in. Instead he took a Hometown Discount to be looking over his shoulder at Dane Evans chomping at the bit to play. Having 2 qbs like this is a luxury in the CFL because at some point there will be in juries & the Cats will be locked in with 2 expensive qbs to pay (CFL standards). Waitng another couple of weeks for offers to come in wouldn't have been a bad idea. O|ne or both of those guys will be unhappy at some point this season.

Lots of our guys could of bolted for more money as well... sometimes money is not everything. Maybe he's happy making less sitting on a bench instead of going to Toronto and getting absolutely mauled for a few extra bucks.

Hope there are some leaks who are the Bombers will be negotiating with. Thing about leaks are that they are usually intended to drive up the price (from the players end) or to get an existing FA to sign (by the team). I like when it's quiet (around names) unless it drives up the price for another team, like with Ellingson or Burnham. If we don't get 'em, I hope the price is very high!

Who would want him? Ottawa, sure, but they have Arbuckle and the Lapo offense. That's not ideal. Toronto, I guess is the other but they MBT and his ghosts and the Grey Cup winner, Nichols.

January 27, 20214 yr comment_495963 Darren Cameron @Darren_Cameron · 41s #Bombers announce the team has traded centre Cody Speller to Toronto, along with the 52nd overall selection in the 2021 CFL Draft, in exchange for the 48th overall pick. Speller was a pending free agent in a couple of weeks.
January 27, 20214 yr Author comment_495969 Wow... I guess he was gonna leave as an FA and this way they at least get something back in return. Crazy...

January 27, 20214 yr comment_495977 48 th pic....ouch....BUT something is better than nothing....Speller is a good one and it's better than him taking up residence in the west...especially in the province directly to the west of us...I'm sure he'll help out T.O. ..and lord knows they need all of the help they can get
January 27, 20214 yr Author comment_495983 Speller was only going East, as Booch posted awhile back. Odds are he was going to Toronto anyhow, but this allows them to avoid the headache of someone else driving up the price in a couple weeks.
January 27, 20214 yr comment_495984 yeah it was a given, especially with Neuf re-upping, and the depth we have. Allows us now to allocate some mid tier salary now to something of more need..especially in this Covid year where SMS will be a bit less available

Walters get 'er done.

When he has a bad game & is benched for Evans we'll see how how handles it.

Its impossible to out perform his rookie year, the weight he will have to do that though and what happened in the GC game will make it a tough season for him imo.
January 28, 20214 yr comment_496019 Regardless of who starts the first game, the pressure will be on both to keep their performances up. It could create a great environment of competition, as long as both parties are up for it.

Maybe the starter will be the one that is best at curling into the fetal position like Evans in the Grey Cup lol.

It was very moving that the TiCats sent a less-fortunate high school team to Calgary. Giving back to the community.

Our guys who took less money will all start whereas no guarantee Masoli will. Or if he does, that after a couple of bad games he won't be benched for Evans. That's when the unhappiness starts, Why not go where the money is & be the undisputed starter? At least listen to offers.
