February 7, 20169 yr comment_181626 Apologies if there are any mistakes in there, mostly using the CFL FA tracker for info. I just think it's a little more readable when listed grouped by position rather than team
February 8, 20169 yr comment_181641 Is it me or does it kinda feel like Chrismas eve? Edited February 8, 20169 yr by Dirty30
February 8, 20169 yr comment_181643 I'm not sure who this blogger is... but I find it hard to call him/het credible with this kind of grammar: "Ted Laurent is really the best player in this free agent class but their is no way, in my mind, that Hamilton lets him walk."
February 8, 20169 yr comment_181644 what did we figure out for time tomorrow? Is it Noon ET, 11am Wpg, and then 10am for us Oil folk......?
February 8, 20169 yr comment_181648 I wonder if the Blue will pick up a lot of free agents who are just a step below the cream of the crop that's available? Might get better value scooping up the Messams of the world rather then spending all the money on guys like Harris?

February 8, 20169 yr comment_181657 For the first time in a long time (maybe ever), with so many players available for this time around, free agency has the potential to drastically change the landscape of the league. It's pretty exciting really. A team like Hamilton stands to lose the most IMO, they could quickly go from contender to a question mark literally overnight. Conversely, a team like the Bombers could improve dramatically. Plenty of teams with holes to plug and plenty of hole pluggers for the right coin. This to me is what should take place every four or five years to help with parity and fan interest. Can't wait! Edited February 8, 20169 yr by IC Khari
February 8, 20169 yr comment_181702 My main point about Messam was that the Blue won't sign the guys who will make top coin (Laurent, Harris) and instead would pick the 3rd or 4th best options since the free agent list is quite deep.

I just think it's a little more readable when listed grouped by position rather than team There are a lot of "no-names" and "old-names" on that list that are not going to receive any offers, thus it's going to be a bleak day for a few. Hopefully Walters can find numerous pieces at market price with a positive upside between the upper and lower price groups.

February 8, 20169 yr comment_181751 Here's my guess.... think they make a big splash or 2. Harris. Ryan Smith. Capicotti. Medlock or Waters. Just think they are gonna go out and sign a few big names. I think they will offer Laurent money but someone will pay him way more. Laurent is good but if he wants 300 K.... Capicotti is the better value signing. Edited February 8, 20169 yr by Goalie
February 8, 20169 yr comment_181752 Lawless said today expect them to go hard after Messam if he reaches FA. Could save 50 k over Harris.
February 8, 20169 yr comment_181753 I just really hope they don't blow their load over-paying for Laurent. I would not be a fan of that. Pretty much anything else goes, tho...

February 8, 20169 yr comment_181761 1.calgary would be have to be stupid to let messam go. 2. calgary is not stupid. 3. messam will stay in calg. *messam probably should not have said he wants to stay in calg. *not sure why, but I'll be surprised if Andrew Harris ends up here.

February 8, 20169 yr comment_181762 I think the extra money would be better spent on the d-line... I'd rather they over pay for Laurent then for Harris..
February 8, 20169 yr comment_181763 I don't think they will be in on Laurent. They will Def talk to his agent but I don't see them signing him.
