Free Agent Signings

[B.C.FAN]

With John White re-signed in Edmonton, another Eskimo free-agent RB, Kendial Lawrence, has followed HC Chris Jones to Saskatchewan.

Been a quiet day so far. Only team that has made some moves is the Rough Riders signing 4 players. By the end of the day, there should be some more moves by teams, with BC hopefully being one. I like to see 1 or 2 more guys signed.

J.C. Sherritt has re-signed in Edmonton. I'm somewhat surprised he didn't follow Chris Jones to Saskatchewan.

no surprise re: sherritt

would have been a massive coup for the Riders if they had been able to sign the one player available that can stand equal to SolE

Apparently the Riders will be signing Cappiocotti.....busy day for them.

Argos have 8 picks in this year's draft.

Disappointing Cappiocotti went to the Riders and not BC, but no surprise. Riders likely offered more money and Riders likely to be most improved team this year. BC will be in tough to make the playoffs, for Bombers are much improved too.

For this Lions' fan it is very disappointing that Cappiciotti will not be signing with us.

No proof in the pudding yet, but one thinks Jones might be building a very, very good team in Regina.

Hopefully Wally is still working at getting a defensive end despite loosing out on Capicciotti. Tristan Okpaulago had very solid stats last year and has good hustle, a total gamer. I was very impressed with his play last year, particularly his hustle as pursues the play all over the field.

But a DE is a must! Maybe Kristian Covington is interested in coming home? One can wish.....

I guess we got our runningback. BC signs Jeremiah Johnson.

The Lions will be under new ownership and Buono will be retired before Covington is interested in coming home for anything other than an offseason visit.

As a rotational rookie he played in 15 out of 16 games recording 8 tackles and 2 sacks. He may wind up in the CFL but I wouldn't count on that happening for 6 or 7 years. Could be another Vaughn Martin finally coming back home when he's 30.

I will keep wishing....maybe he will play for us when he is 29

Atta boy. Keep that glass half full!!!!!

I think so far the Lions have done well upgrading the db position and running back. We also have a OLineman that played pretty well for Sask. Hopefully a rush end is in the mix as well. I bet Sask and the peg go over the SC
