    Good, glad to see him back playing in the CFL this year.
    Me too. I think the Riders are going to be the team to beat in the west this year.

    Duron is definitely one of a kind. Always good to have a polarizing figure for other teams fans to hate and make headlines. Of course it takes a special person to do that. Someone who doesn't care what other people think.

    Yeah - a real character and a legend in his own mind; but reports out of Riderville say he has been a good team-guy and no real problems ? Well liked there.

    Certainly has some real talent and skills - big, fast with a huge catch radius (one of the all-time greatest CFL receptions IMO last year); and chipped in playing well at DB. Still, IMO, pretty over-rated as a receiver - mainly cause he drops too many; if there was a former CFL receiver i could compare him too = maybe Arland Bruce - a guy who could make big plays and spectacular catches, but just dropped too many passes to be considered an all-around elite receiver. Not even close to Terry Greer, Milt, Brian Kelly, Allen Pitts or Merv Fernandez as a total package receiver talent.

    Duron Carter's one year extension seems to be quite favourable to the Riders. While his contract went up from $130,000 to $175,000 potentially, it includes a $31,000 playing time bonus in addition to a $70,000 signing bonus and a $74,000 base salary.

    Another National, in addition to DL Nathan Shephard who is also on Hamilton's list after failing to be drafted, has been placed on the Rider's negotiation list: RB Johnny Augustine, who was ranked #17 on the final CFL Scouting Bureau list, but went undrafted and failed to stick with the Eskimos at TC last year. Not entirely surprising that a National RB went undrafted even in the late rounds.

    Don't know what happened with Augustine last year. Tough runner who is maybe on the small size, but did well at the combine at least on the field.
    Saw him play this last fall and he looks like he can play in the CFL as a back up and ST guy IMO.

    More neg list stupidity. Once a player has been in someone's camp as Augustine was, how is he not just a free agent? Why should someone be allowed to put a released player onto a neg list? Unless of course, 3DN is wrong about him being added to a neg list.

    Not surprising considering Muamba's play since returning to the CFL and how the Riders have spent so far on Free Agency.

    Expensive, but I would love for the Argos to snap him up. He was very impressive late last year.

    Saskatchewan revealed ten of its negotiation list names. It includes a 265 lb, 6 ft 5in Canadian fullback, Adam Zaruba out of SFU who signed a three year contract with the Eagles in 2017, but was cut in September only to be resigned in January as a tight end prospect. The list gives descriptions of all ten players.

    The Riders have added 23 players to their roster, including former Argo WR Da'Rick Rogers. They cut four others: Nationals OL Peter Dyakowski, safety Jeff Hecht, and DL Eddie Meredith, as well as International DB Taylor Mays.

    Bad luck they just lost Jake Harty for the season with a torn ACL. They had high hopes of him taking that number one Canadian spot from Bagg.
    Last year in Ottawa he stepped in when Sinopoli was injured and had 26 receptions in 7 games as a starter. Bagg played in 15 games and had 33 receptions.

    I can see them signing Matt Coates. He has looked very good when given the chance with both Hamilton and Winnipeg.
