Stanback at $160 is a deal for the Lions, he would have done outstanding here

I would have been really disappointed to sign Stanback, certainly for that much.
My wife is amazing!

Is BO20 worth $70k more than Stanback?

A resounding YES.

Interesting that not a single sask. player has been picked up in free agency as of yet.

Oh no, we lost Stove! ( Casey Sayles steps up )

Oh no, we lost Casey Sayles ( Ricky Walker steps up)

Oh no, we lost Ricky Walker... who is the next man up?

Currently on the roster, may be more coming to camp...

90    Fox, Miles            DT    A    6'1    297    27    Wake Forest
97    Kornelson, Collin    DT    N    6'3    240    23    Manitoba
99    Lawson, Cameron    DT    N    6'3    281    25    Queen's
96    Schmekel, Tanner    DT    N    6'1    291    24    Regina
95    Thomas, Jake            DT    N    6'2    274    33    Acadia
   Woods, Jamal            DT    A    6'2    290    24    Illinois

And we have this years Draft Picks as well... we could end up with a 2 Nat interior Dline... and start 98-9 Nats, have zero "fake nat" snaps again next year and get an extra draft pick again.

No one has come close to replacing Richardson at tackle, its been a steady decline since he left. I am hoping we break this trend

Problem is with the positional money going to the higher priced DE's they're always looking for DT's to play on ELC's.  Once Willie is gone maybe they'll be able to change tactics.

Schmekel's a hefty boy, but the fact they re-signed Jake earlier probably means they don't expect him to be a starter yet, he's got this TC to prove them wrong or it's back on the PR for another year.

Sayles and Walker are a bit smaller iirc, more pass rush guys than nose tackles/run defenders. I think we need to get back to the more stout guys inside

B-grade receiver, seems like they don't want Jake Wieneke back even at a cheaper price.  Wonder if there's any chance Austin Mack returns mid-season.

IIRC, Mack got a good signing bonus so I wouldn't expect him to return to the CFL this year.
