Have we heard yet who was the first to pick up the phone? Did we inquire about Striker, or was Sask trying to get the "Offensive weapon"?

FWIW, he is listed as a LB on our roster.

Please don't link-and-run.

We traded a neg list player to Saskatchewan for DE Eric Striker, presumably to see if he can help our pass rush.

So are we fully committed to Rodney Smith at WR now? I'm not expecting much from the receiving corps until that is sorted out and Coombs is available.

We signed speedy Myles White today. He was a 4.40 runner in his draft year, but that was five years ago. If he can still hustle, perhaps he can be the stretch guy we're all looking for. Mind you, he...

I hope we take this opportunity to try Charette, Ralph, and Jones (if/when healthy) at slot. A few extra touches for Cross would be nice, too, to see if he can be effective with a heavier workload.

So, in addition to Reed, we have added Woods, Sears Jr., and Coombs to the 6 game IR. Do we stick Ralph in Coombs' spot, or do something more creative?

So... Tyms is our new #1 WR?

He must have had a good camp, but it feels strange that he never even caught a pass in the pre-season.

No surprise that the Evan Gill experiment didn't work out.

Looks like we're putting at least twelve on the IR.

(Actually we're down to 74; Waters is still listed on the roster and Picton is going back to school)

More cuts to come, certainly. We're down to 76 I think, so even if we fully stock the PR and keep ten guys on the IR, ten more cuts are needed.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing.

Cut down has begun:

INT Jeff Luc (LB) Cincinnati
INT Sadat Sulleyman (DE) Portland State
INT Maurice Carnell (DB) North Alabama
INT Stanley ‘Boom’ Williams JR. (RB) Kentucky
INT Christopher...

We added another INT running back today. Khiry Robinson played a fair bit for the Saints in the last few years.

Indeed. Either we'll get a very promising player, or move up from ninth to eighth in next year's draft!

Ah - so bidding is by reverse waiver priority but bids are weighted by waiver priority order. That makes more sense, honestly. The idea that the GC winner would have top priority seemed strange.

Yup, I'm confused now too, given the example they cite (I didn't originally read past "reverse waiver priority order"!)

If waiver priority order is "based on the finish order from the previous...

My understanding is that priority in the supplemental draft is by reverse waiver priority order. If we want him enough to offer our 2019 first round pick he should be ours.

It does indeed. I'm curious to see whether we add Tyler Johnstone to the mix in the supplemental draft.

Nice that we're giving Watman a chance to sign elsewhere. Also nice that we apparently don't need him any more.

The Beltre signing is official, and we also picked up DB Anthony Covington (link).

Dammit! It's *Daryl's* fault for playing so little that I forgot his name. Yeah, that's it...

DT Evan Gill, DT Hassan Berry, and OT DJ Park were signed today.

Gill is interesting. He was a Hamilton first rounder in 2014, but seemed to be perpetually injured. Not unlike Kevin Waud...

Jeff Mathews released.
