Thanks for this list B.C.FAN. Here's my take:B.C.FAN wrote:The league has released its official list of free agents. There are 17 Lions on the list. Matt Norman is the extra name that wasn't on Penton's list:
2016 Free Agent Tracker
B.C. (17)
WR Manny Arceneaux - Came on strong at end of the year. Premier receiver and recognizable, community-minded veteran. Lock him up.
CB Steven Clarke - Showed improvement and potential. Should be back.
LB Rennie Curran - Possible replacement if one of Solly/Bighill is traded. Otherwise, won't be back.
*OL Kirby Fabien - Can't lose NI OL. Servicable player. Lock him up.
*S Eric Fraser - Was okay. Would like him back to compete, especially if Safety is going to be a NI position.
*RB Andrew Harris - Would love him back, but likely not going to happen.
LB Alex Hoffman-Ellis - Decent player. May have more upside. Would like him back to compete, possible replacement if one of Solly/Bighill is traded.
LB Josh Johnson - Reduced the stupid penalties, high energy playmaker. Lock him up.
*RB Pascal Lochard - Not very noticeable. Has potential? Not sure.
QB Travis Lulay - Need to prioritze bringing him back as 2nd/3rd string QB, mentor, and potential future coach.
*OL Matt Norman - See Fabien.
OL Jovan Olafioye - Perennial all-star, shows leadership. Lock him up.
CB Cord Parks - Lost it. Cut him loose.
RB Chris Rainey - Most exciting BC returner...ever? Lock him up.
DE Khreem Smith - One more year? Probably not.
SB Courtney Taylor - One of my favourites, gets open and makes the catch. But would like to see the young guys get a chance. Could be a possible receiver's coach?
*OL Dean Valli - Below average at his peak. Cut him loose.
