CFL Free Agency Day 1 Summary


Here's a summary of all that went on for each team on a busy Day 1. I expect a few more moves on Day 2 so I will hold off and provide full analysis of the Rider moves on Thursday (Spoiler alert: I'm pretty pumped about the Zach Evans thing!).

PS - It's Valentine's Day, if you haven't already gotten a gift now would be a good time to fake a severe stomach flu.

Getting Messam cost us Muamba. Probably have to go import @ MLB unless anyone thinks Hurl is the answer. Would I trade Muamba for Messam & Hurl? No. Messam's stats way down last year if you look beyond yards. Only RB in top 10 below 5 yds/carry. Derek Taylor commented on him as the worst RB in the league at catching the ball. He can't catch, isn't known to block well & how does he fit in with Richardson, Thigpen & Marshall on board? If we didn't have CAP issues, okay, but I don't get it.

Agreed if the trade is Muamba for Hurl/Messam then its an awful deal. I don't like it.
