Re: Harris Won't Be Back...Pretty Much Official
According to CFL.ca Harris has signed with Winnipeg, not that we didn't already know that would happen.

Re: Lions Losses. Lions Gains in Free Agency
Sorry to see Hoffman-Ellis leave but there was no way he was going to beat out two Outstanding Defensive Players for a starter position. He played well when called upon last year but with several solid Canadians waiting in the wings it doesn't really make sense to keep him, not to mention import li...

Great to have Lulay back, it is always nice to have a veteran backup

Re: Upcoming free agents
TSN reports QB Trevor Harris has signed with Ottawa. Toronto should have signed him first instead of Ray. Ted Laurent will sign for big bucks somewhere. I highly doubt it will be here. He is about as valuable as any player in the league, IMO. Laurent will likely receive north of $300k, while he is ...

Re: Harris Won't Be Back...Pretty Much Official
Here more details on Lions new Running backs. Seems the NFL Lions former RB could be Harris' replacement: The BC Lions signed two international running backs Friday, bringing in Mikel Leshoure and Sam Ojuri. Leshoure played two seasons with the NFL’s Detroit Lions from 2012-13, rushing for 807 yard...

Re: Super Bowl 50, Game Day Thread, Feb 7, 2016
Pulling for Denver I guess, it would be nice to see Peyton win 1 more before he retires, I've always seen Can Newton as being rather arrogant and immature.

Re: Harris Won't Be Back...Pretty Much Official
I disagree that this is all about Wally reacting to Harris' media outbursts, though I agree that it is a factor. The bigger factor is the cost/benefit analysis relative to on field performance. The difference between Harris' contract demands (200,000?), and what we would pay a decent international ...

Re: Harris Won't Be Back...Pretty Much Official
I wish Harris well wherever he ends up, he really was a bright spot in some mediocre offenses the past couple seasons. That being said $200,000+ for a running back regardless of their skill set or passport is just way too much. A decent import running back could be had for less then half that. The f...

Re: What are your thoughts on the O-line heading into 2016?
If the Leos want to do the 3-4 alignment, they missed the key in making that work. Namely bringing Rich Stubler back in the fold. IMHO Stubler > Washington 3-4 defense works great in the NFL with a smaller field and big linebackers but it only has limited success in Canadian footlball. The 4-3 base...

Good for him, he did a great job with our linebackers the last couple of seasons.B.C.FAN wrote:According to Alex Marvez of Fox Sports, former B.C. linebackers coach Johnny Holland has been hired by new Cleveland Browns coach Hue Jackson to help coach their linebackers.

Re: Upcoming free agents
Good post. Welcome. The only player on your list that I wouldn't target is Keith Shologan. I'm happy with Brooks and Minter inside. I would definitely target Capicciotti as one starter at defensive end. The other DE spot is wide open but with Westerman, Menard, Mrabure-Ajufo and Forde on the roster...

Re: What are your thoughts on the O-line heading into 2016?
In my opinion, the O-line was just ok in 2015, with a lot of room to improve in 2016. That being said Bourke is the best lineman available in free agency, I know he is older but he probably still has 2-3 good years still left. If he is healthy Steward should start at left guard with Foster at center...

Re: Upcoming free agents
New guy here My top free agents are: 1. Josh Bourke 2. Justin Capicciotti 3. Keith Shologan 4. Courtney Stephen Bourke gives the Lions a national at left tackle, allowing them to start an import at center with Foster. I know there is some concern about his age, however he is the same age as Ben Arch...
