Re: Will Lions Overhaul the roster for 3rd year in a Row

define overhaul. How many players have to be changed for this to apply? Basically the same as last 2 years. Last year Lions signed just 2 or 3 of their pending free agents. I hope they don't just sign 1 or 2 guys going forward. If Lions basically rebuild their defence then to me that is an overhaul...

Will Lions Overhaul the roster for 3rd year in a Row

I hate to vote this way, but my feeling is they will, which is a mistake. I believe the Lions have not signed 1 pending free agent since Jan 1. Last year they only signed a few and this year 4 or 5 I believe. They let Lemon walk last year which was a mistake and he played well for us since his retur...

Re: Coaching staff announced.

The best news to come out of this is that Jarious Jackson is gone.

Re: Lions Lost No Players to NFL

Found this online: HOUSTON ROUGHNECKS: Sergio Castillo – Kicker: Castillo is one of my favorite picks of the draft. Castillo played for the Canadian Football League’s British Columbia Lions in 2019 and had 41 converted field goals of 45. Yes, that is 41/45. I’m excited to see if he brings that consi...

Thanks for the correction BC 1988. I forgot about that for it was so long ago.

Lions Lost No Players to NFL

This morning, Hamilton released Addison to pursue NFL, Eskimos released another and yesterday Als released Stanback. Since season ending most teams have released players, except BC. Why?

Anyway it is good news for the Lions for hate to lose some of our key players.

Re: Bo Levi Mitchell takes $95,000 pay cut

No! I doubt Reilly will do the same and I doubt Ed Hervey will ask him. I still think his big contract will hurt the Lions and they will go cheap in other areas to fit under the cap. He should, but I just don't feel it will happen and Lions will suffer again for it.

Re: CFL free agency - Shaq Johnson, Adam Konar re-signed

I thought someone said he was making close to $150,000 last year. Maybe not, but I am sure it is over $100,000. But it is just a guess. He was released by Eskimos for he wanted too much money.

Does someone know how much Konar made last year? I am sure he got a raise.

Re: CFL free agency - Shaq Johnson re-signed

Adam Konar just re-signed for 1 year. If he is going to be a backup linebacker I don't like this signing if he is due to make $150,000 or more. That is too much for a back up and I barely noticed him last year and I watched most of the games.

Re: Before Christmas Will Santa Bring us new assistant coaches or Vet Player Resigning

Well turns out Option 2 ended up reality with the signing of Shaq Johnson:

The BC Lions announced Thursday the team has re-signed national wide receiver Shaq Johnson to 1 year contract.

Campbell said no coaching announcements will come till January.

Mark Nelson - May Become New Lions Special Teams Coach

Though this is not official, Ed Willis is reporting it is likely to happen. Our ST should be a lot better this year than it was under Taylor A. This will be a good hire. Thoughts? Mods Edit: The subject heading has been changed. "New Special Teams Coach" is deceiving as this is not yet an ...

Re: Paul Lapolice New Coach of Ottawa

I felt Campbell would bring in some of his assistants from Ottawa and Nelson I think worked with him last year.
