Re: League Thows The Book at Chad Kelly

So much for a fair trial. And yet if they would have re-newed the contract none of this would have happened. Crickets from Ryan Dinwiddie as well. The whole thing seems weirdly targeted to me. Silver cloud is a fresh and healthy QB ready for the stretch run. Would not surprise me if they add Taylor...

Re: NFL road rocky for Rourke after Patriots draft QB

I considered Giants in my list but given they have Jones, traded for Lock and still have fan favourite and local kid Devito just didn't think they'd do it. Having said that they seem to be approaching crossroads with Jones. Who knows about Lock. Devito as a rookie I think posted a 3-2 record startin...

Re: NFL road rocky for Rourke after Patriots draft QB

Might as well kick the can down the NFL road because we know unequivocally Rourke will be doing just that this year.

Re: NFL road rocky for Rourke after Patriots draft QB

How about these teams for Rourke: 1. New York Giants: The Giants have a need for a developmental quarterback behind Daniel Jones. Rourke could learn from Jones and compete for the backup role. 2. Seattle Seahawks: The Seahawks have Geno Smith and Drew Lock as their top two quarterbacks, but neither...

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents

My guess is that once the Lions signed Covington they then asked Menard to take a pay cut and he refused, thinking he could get the same or better $ on the open market. Time will tell. Very good possibility. I saw that BC had also releases Lawrence Woods III. He has now resurfaced with his former t...

Re: NFL road rocky for Rourke after Patriots draft QB

I feel badly for Rourke. Probablly has more talent than half the starters in the NFL (he engineered 5 TD drives on 9 drives in preseason for the Jags). I believe he was given bad advice, going into a situation with Trevor Lawrence as the franchise QB and Beathard the established #2 (it probably sho...

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents

Seeing again nothing new with honoring player contracts from the team perspective with several players released across the league despite having a deal in place. Chandler Worthy and David Menard among them. For a guy like Menard who may have been influenced by a two year deal at age 32 and then aft...

Re: NFL road rocky for Rourke after Patriots draft QB

Patriots waive Rourke : https://3downnation.com/2024/05/06/new-england-patriots-waive-canadian-qb-nathan-rourke/ Well, it will be interesting to see if he clears waivers. If he does, then likely he will be released. Can't see too much interest this soon after the draft has been completed. If he run...

Re: Chase Claypool

So much for the Chase Claypool to the CFL speculation and nice to hear he has signed a one year deal with the Bills. Hoping it is a good situation for him and he gets his career back on track with a strong year. I think that was "Lords of Flatlands" aka rectangular province induced specul...

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents

I don't know if there's something going on with Riley Pickett but BC just signed long-time veteran NFL LS Kyle Nelson. Maybe it's just a favour for Kyle's old man Mark who was on Campbell's staff in Ottawa from 2014 thru 2019 and guest coached in Kamloops in 2022. https://3downnation.com/2024/05/02...

Re: Lions sign Christian Covington

Neil McEvoy admitted to J.J. Adams today that Menard was a cap casualty due to the signing of Covington. He said Stove Richardson approached the Lions about a month ago and said he didn’t think he was ready to return, so he retired “for now.” It sounds like the door is still open to him, as well as...

Re: Lions sign Christian Covington

Wow! The Lions have also released David Menard. One step forward with the signing of Covington and two steps back with the release of Richardson and Menard. I suspect these moves are cap related. Cap would be a big factor but I think overall the quantity and quality of talent across the DL is just ...

Re: Lions sign Christian Covington

- Whatever happened with Woody Baron. All-star season then cut just prior to the free agency window opening and still unsigned. Like Lucky Whitehead and Janarion Grant just part of the 30 and over club deemed too expensive at this stage of their careers even with gas still left in the tank? Those a...
