Knew he wouldn't be on market long

 

Hand on face mask...holding himself from falling flat on face

We release a great locker room player who still has fuel in the tank that can probably still deliver on the field if he can stay healthy, we release a great locker room guy with nothing left in the tank and re-sign a great locker room guy who used up his reserves some time ago that puts the team at a disadvantage when he’s on the field.

Different positions yes but logical, consistent and anti JT AB sentiment no. And no it’s not the end of the world just a bit annoying different rules for different players. And of course all of this is just my humble opinion.

David Beard and Brett Boyko (back) to the Elks

Beard is a nice add, meh on Boyko.

Maybe this is the year the Elks make the playoffs.

We can’t lose more than we gain again from free agency this year can we? 

Brinkman to EDM

Looks like the L's are winning FA again.

Robbie Smith to Edmonton as well… As expected, they’re just signing everyone.

Hard to argue with what they’re doing. Canadians and help in the trenches.

That's some great work by Edmonton. Now I need to go shower.

While you’re in there imagine the Argos signing Lawler.

Edmonton just needs to sign Ceresna and they have 3/4 of the argo dline. (kinda forcing argos hand to sign ceresna with Ormilade gone as well )

Metchie to Edmonton as well per Farhan.

Loading up on some great Canadian talent.

Appreciate the updates guys.

Metchie, Beard, Julien Grant. Gittens, Ivy, Brinkman and Ford - doesnt get much stronger than that for cdn talent

(is Toronto holding a yard sale?) Mcmanis is gonna look around and say "who the h*** are these guys around me?"

If you mean Martez Ivey, he's an INT.

Ed Hervey is playing Mad Men right now. 
 

Though allegedly, Tyrell Ford came in at $230k.

As is Brinkman, of course.

Wonder where he lines up

you guys are right of course, i should have said Smith, and Korte

so 7 starting cdns 

Metchie, Beard, Julien Grant. Gittens, Boyko, Smith and Ford - still a huge improvement

And allegedly a reunion with Jake Ceresna is looming…

I can just hear all the marketing money going thru the cash register

Too bad they don't have a legit qb

And there’s the problem

they’ve spent all this money on almost all of the right things, building a solid OL to protect their QB and building a solid defense to get the ball back into the QB’s hands

one problem 

the QB is still Tre Ford

Wait was that $230,000 per year for Ford?

Hervey doing it right tho. They can't fix QB right now anyway.
