Re: 2024 CFL draft (Lion's picks)
Adams not going for the big bucks is admirable. I assume as he lives in or near Seattle that staying in BC is a good thing as his family doesn't come here. Not dissimilar to Michael Reilly moving to BC to be closer to his wife and kids at home not far from Vancouver. “I knew for us to get the player...

Re: Eric Guthrie - The Canadian Rifle
I had a friend who was on the Eagle Keys coached Lions with the Canadian Rifle Eric Guthrie. He had a lot of funny stories about Eric. All were good. I see Ian Gallagher posted this on FB: https://www.facebook.com/groups/695663055007626/?hoisted_section_header_type=recently_seen&multi_permalinks...

Re: 2024 CFL draft (Lion's picks)
Incentives for teams that play Canadians like BC and WPG is getting some criticism on X for rewarding top teams not improving the bottom and there's logic to this. How about incentives for teams that hire ex-CFL players on their coaching staff? https://twitter.com/FarhanLaljiTSN/status/1760462596896...

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
Farhan brought up an interesting point on a Regina based podcast last week on how team's scouting/player personnel department is not doing its job if it can't find solid entry level players at three positions — field side corner, 5th receiver and a edge rusher. Entry level Receivers are easier to s...

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
The 2024 market for receivers is set, Schoen, Hollins and Hatcher all signed for $220,000 to $230,000. Rhymes signed for less. White is good but he isn’t worth a lot more than the other FAs. Definitely a subtle market correction is unfolding after the Elks threw ridiculous receiver money ($300,000+...

Re: Thoughts on getting Stanback?
Is it just me or are others having trouble connecting to the site at times? Yes, keeps asking me to log in or register. I get that too but my main issue is ERROR 500 where I can't log in. Stanback is a RB who can attack a defense from multiple points and get the extra yards. Yes, the scatbacks aren...

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
There seemed to be a lot of 1 year FA signings by all teams. A good read and Betts like the vibe with the staff etc but hasn't met the HC. Betts is like Nathan Rourke and any player who blends optimism with realism but lets optimism drive his decision to give it a shot. He knows the challenge. Most ...

Re: Thoughts on getting Stanback?
Is it just me or are others having trouble connecting to the site at times? I don't put the blame on Tiquan Mizzell for the run game. It's on the coaches, their philosophy and run playbook. Last season Brady Oliviera ran for 1,540 yards with a 5.9 yds per carry average. That means they can run when ...

Re: Lions sign QB Dolegala
I was intrigued by both Dolega and Cornelius Taylor as FAs and leaned a bit to Dolegala despite no evidence to back it up. Dolegala has potential to develop but they best get some off season development that helps him read the field better and cut out INTs. Prokup wants to play so his signing is goo...

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
3:10 p.m. EST — It isn’t easy being a veteran American pass rusher these days. Shawn Oakman, Dylan Wynn, Almondo Sewell, A.C. Leonard, Ja’Gared Davis and Woody Baron are all unsigned as we head into hour three.

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
Yeah Nic Marshall had gone off script numerous times and got burned more often than not. So Betts could just marginally beat CFL money unless he's on the 53 man roster. If he's the type who wants the dream and can handle the pressures of that it makes sense for him. Clearly he had no interest in bei...

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
Sad to the Lions unable to keep Jalen Edwards-Cooper who replaces gun toting Nic Marshall who assumably is tied up for the next while back home in Georgia. Three potential game changing signings in the West: 1." 1:33 p.m. EST — After scoring their first return touchdown in eons at the end of th...

Re: 2023-24 NFL/Seahawks Season Thread
The stats on Mahomes after 114 games compared to Brady at this stage are setting up nicely to have this comparison going on for Mahomes' entire career. Some of the defensive pass protection by the Chiefs was as good as it gets in football with knockdowns that weren't questioned as possible PI calls....
