Re: Training camp 2024
I think both stanback and mizzell will be on active roster this season. But one on the 45 each week. They will 1 game the other. This how they ran the backs pre-Covid. Always had two. One guy got 12 games and other 6. Plus they had Rainey if needed. RB is one of the most punishing positions. No way ...

Re: Training camp 2024
They must really like Terrell to sign him with camp already underway. Wonder if they will move on completely from Mizzell? I wondered the same thing, Sammy. I think the Terrell signing is more to do with the realization that Stanback is 29 with a lot of miles (remember the serious ankle injury in 2...

Re: CFL News re: TC's 2024- Not BC Lions
Sorry Don, but I have to disagree. Bo has hung on too long for love of game. Arm strength isn't there, no mobility, accuracy meh...he's a shadow of his former self (leadership is still there though but that can't win you a lot of football games on its own). I can see the same thing happening with B...

Re: Training camp 2024
The roster on the website lists 99. I estimate they still need to cut 2 more to get to 85. Possibly they have an injury or two that takes care of that. Amongst the 99: Injured & won't be in main camp - Hatcher, Hinsperger, Lee III Non-counters - Una, Tieide, Beaulieu, Marchant, Ganyi, Ringland,...

Re: Training camp 2024
No Marcus Sayles on 1st unit? I wonder if there's been a number change. I don't recall seeing 14 out there but I'll check tomorrow. I couldn't understand playing a raw rookie at HB. No way sayles isn’t starting HB. One question is which side he plays until TJ lee is health in fall. Maybe they play ...

Re: Training camp 2024

Re: Training camp 2024
Yes, that's another factor. There are still some padded practices in camp but I don't even try to evaluate line play. The lack of contact also makes it tough to evaluate running backs. The real test of the roster comes in the first few games of the regular season. When the CFL went from a 16 game s...

Re: Training camp 2024
Looks like rookie camp starts with walkthru Wednesday night at 5pm.
I guess the main purpose of rookie camp is cut 15 of 50 guys before vets report.

Re: Lions sign Christian Covington
Great job by lions mgmt. love he is coming home. .. but a little levity Remember Vaughn Martin ? Similar to Christian was a stud nose tackle for San Diego for 6 years. Came back to Montreal .. last 7 games before being cut. CFL is a really good league. Just adding Brett Boyko levity until we see him...

Re: Training Camp Prospects
Most these type of signings are just for rookie camp so they can run scrimmages etc. just going to Kamloops for 3 days.
If makes it through rookie camp, join 3rd group for reps through camp.

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
The CBA calls for a minimum of $110,000 per team in player marketing and promotional fees but the overall cap including those fees is $5.635 million, plus a share of any league revenue growth. $110k min is outside cap. You could spend $1million if your want. Key is this has to be earned, but teams ...

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
The marketing and promotional fees I’ve seen in current CFL contracts are up to about $12,000 each, so that’s 24 appearances at $500 each or 120 hours at $100/hour, which isn’t onerous if it includes offseason appearances. The team salary cap figures in the latest CBA are somewhat confusing. Salari...

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
110k marketing fund is a floor not a cap. Housing allowance just creates tax efficient salary. Bonuses are same. As above noted the Incentive for winning games is gone with xfl. Cfl players could easily include this. Salary spent per cfl team is in the 8 million range. Salary cap only includes 2/3r...
