CFL (Non-Bombers) off-season news

[Blue In BC]

Reblacks acquire N. Morgan from the Elks. Santos-Knox is currently a potential free agent.

You've just described Zach's ideal receiver.

Ya, ok.  But one problem: we have 3 of those already!!  Pokey, Wheatie, Demski are all thinner/speed guys who can go wide out and get a 70Y TD with YAC.

We don't have a bruiser with hands for the short game.  Kenny kind of did that for us a bit when he'd cut inside (those TDs in '24 WDF were amazing).  But even he wasn't ideal there (too skinny & frail).

As such I'd take Johnson over Meyers.  But only for cheap.  In general I don't like all the Green retreads we take in.  I'm not expecting we take any greeners this FA.  Let the other hyenas pounce and steal that GC meat.

I think the rider receivers will re sign with the riders, they've got a good thing going, I m sure oday will make them competitive offers and they haven't overcommitted to their star players like we and other teams have. They have more cap space than most teams

I'm of the opposite mind.  I think they are in cap heck, and I think the FA sniping will be massive.  Yeah, their O was super budget, but they spent a ton on that D last year -- way more than we did.

Any superstars coming off ELCs will want to get paid.  SSK can't afford to keep many.  The vets in FA will want a bump after they "deserve it" for winning the GC.  And since the SSK system doesn't require top/expensive RECs I think they dump anyone who asks for more than a modest bump.  They'll just draft more Busbys and Pictons to fill the void.
