Ottawa has signed three players with CFL experience: National WR/ST Scott McDonnell who played for them for three years but was cut in TC, former Bomber four year veteran National DB/ST Teague Sherman and International RB/KR Henry Josey, who played for the Argos in 2015.

MacDonnell looked quite good IMO in a bit of playing time back on that 1st year RedBlacks team - that featured so many drops problems from the receiving corps; thought he would progress - but i guess not and Ottawa went out and signed all those known FA receivers for their 2nd year. At least he should know their offence and system; and i guess he couldn't impress enough to get a shot at some playing time in his stops with Edmonton (who had all those receiver injuries) and on a very average to needy Bomber receiving corps.

Sherman had a pretty good season at OLB for the Bombers a couple of years back - seemed like a play-maker / nose for the ball type D player; maybe a bit surprising that no CFL team has picked him up in the past 2 seasons ?

Greg Jones is a solid LB IMO - but maybe only can play MLB in the CFL? - maybe he could help Ottawa at Will LB with Bass cut ?
