Blue Bombers agree to terms with veteran defensive lineman Jake Ceresna

Three technique in a 4-3 and four tech in a 3-4.

Ceresna's rights were transferred by Edmonton to Winnipeg today.

Curious that Edm can be so accommodating to Ceresna after leaving Ford hang out to dry until the last minute.

Why?

Good article in the Sun about how this "assign the playing rights" has never happened before.

I'm not sure why people are making such a big deal about this "never happening before". The tampering window has only existed for a couple of years. It's not like it's earthshaking that someone decided to try something that we haven't seen in all of 2 years.

It gets Ceresna his signing bonus. It accelerates the process for both teams. It frees up a roster spot for Edmonton. It's a sign of respect for a longtime all-star.

If the leagues cool with it, have at'r.
