    Laing and Okpalaugo go to the NFL



    At least we won't have to play against him.

    Hope he stays in shape so he can be a factor when he returns.

    I saw a funny comment from an Esks fan saying he hopes Brady's knees are ready

    It makes me wonder what their reaction would have been if he had signed there? I think they would have been grouchy in the short-term, but then finally come to acceptance with it.

    Have to buy another jersey. I thought having a Cleyon Laing one would be safe. Good luck in the NFL #90 and if things don't work out please consider Toronto again.

    Too bad. Wish he was back but I sure hope he lights r'up down there. I am sure Barker has some hot shot rookie in the wings.
    CFL alive and well all others can go to Hell!

    The only thing I won't miss from Cleyon is the undisciplined play he showed in a few key plays late last year. But those are things he will outgrow. Good luck to him, and if things don't work out down there, hopefully he comes back better.

    Okpalaugo has a tryout with the Cardinals and his agent claims he already has an offer from the Jets. We won't be seeing him before Labour Day, if then.

    Well at least we have big belly Moore from Sask. With Laing gone our penalty total should drop by big numbers.

    Good luck to him - fine DE IMO.

    Time to bring in lots of TC competition at DE. That DE T. Corney out of Virginia might be an interesting draft pick now ?

    You could tell right from his first game that Okpalaoooooogo was likely gonna be gone back to the NFL after two years here. You wonder how guys like him ever fall through the cracks, but they do all the time, and that's what makes the CFL a much higher-quality league than most people realize.

    I saw Corney in a couple of games during his career at Virginia and was impressed with his pass rush and pursuit. Kind of a clone of Foley size wise and all. Too small for a NFL DE but might get a look down there at LB.
