No thanks.  Maston is done. Unfortunate but he is done.
We don't know that until he tries out for the team. If he is done release him and it doesn't cost anything. If he can still play we get a solid player for cheap.

Pretty sure KW indicated they were not expecting neither Matson or Taylor to return to the team.

Looking at the moves the Ti-cats are making so far, they are loading up specifically on D. I guess they are going all in for a home GC game for themselves.

Yes, he did, he spelled it out.  However, that could be because he thinks they will get better offers elsewhere so he doesn't want to insult them.  If/when their phones are silent, KW could swoop in and make a "if you really want to play" "it's all we can afford" offer.  That saves face for everyone.  You never know...

Yes, there DL is stacked. I am wondering if they would make a trade with us for Mason Bennett.

If these two didn't see the end coming, they ain't thinking straight.

Exactly!

Jordan Herdman-Reed back to BC. In the last two season he's only played 17 games, with 1 DT, and 6 ST.

Blue In BC

About 10 or so players signing in either the XFL or USFL this week. Shorter seasons in their home country and similar money for some of these players.

Mayala, Sindani, Kelly, Sankey to name a few I didn't expect to leave the CFL. I wonder if they are getting 1 year deals and come back to the CFL in 2023?

Pretty tough playing about 26 games in one season. Can't see a guy being effective late in the CFL season.

USFL is only a 10 game season but your point is valid. USFL starts in April. XFL starts this weekend. That said some of those players joined CFL teams in 2022 and a few more in the NFL. Not all were starters, but they made rosters and double dipped with paychecks.

Sorry, I was thinking 26 games. 26 is still a lot of football in one year. Players are having a hard time making it injury free for 18 games.

It would be interesting to see which players, played in both leagues. And what positions they played.

I wonder if Bailey will end up in the USFL / XFL...  love to see him here, just can't see how the expectations / roster / SMS end up working...
Unabashed positron.  Blue koolaid in my fridge.  I wear my blue sunglasses at night.  Homer, d'oh.
