2016-2017 Offseason transactions

[Wobbler]

did the argos announce this signing of Wilder!

Hmm. Not yet. There's often a delay before a signing is made official, but this is a bit longer than usual. Perhaps there has been a snag.

It took 1-2 weeks to announce the Rico Murray signing after it was first leaked. Mind you we saw a picture of Wilder signing what is presumably his contract.

It may very well have been a contract for his condo that he was signing.

[Wobbler]

Not unless The Toronto Argonauts Football Club owns a condo complex. :) It's a pretty good pic, and some of the contract particulars are legible.

But who knows. Maybe the wheels are just turning slowly, or maybe he failed his physical, or whatever. If it isn't announced this week I'd say something is wrong.

Rumor is Wilder will be playing TE not RB.

You mean H-back to replace Dupuis? Wilder has some size, but any experience there? - they're going to pencil in an import at a little used / part-time position on the offence ? (and i seem to recall that Trestman's offence with the Als did not deploy an H-back type too often?)

I'd love to believe that we have plans for a designated TE. But... rumor is that you aren't well informed and should be ignored.

LMFAO. I'm glad you said that because as we know, it may have sounded a little different coming from me.

[Wobbler]

Now it's official.

I see Shawn Lemon and Ricky Ray's jerseys in the Argo Shop $199.00. The other jersey is Ricky Foleys 1/2 off at $99.00. Is the marketing department getting ahead of football operations?

Ha! I thought the same thing a few weeks ago when I was checking out merchandise. It's foreshadowing bad luck his way, if anything.

My guess is that they probably just had too many Foley jerseys made up, and are trying to clear the overstocked item.

[ArgoFanFrank]

The Ricky Ray jersey was $99.99 for the longest time as well. I think they put it back up as soon as Trestman announced Ray as the Argos' starting QB for the 2017 season!

They were also trying to push Hazelton jerseys last year too

Good thing they likely didn't make any Gurley and Elliott jerseys.

[Wobbler]

We signed Cash, as previously reported, and another LT candidate to add to the list.

Argos sign three from all big football programs (if that means much). They have also released Kilgore, whom AV predicted a week ago.

Sorry to see Kilgore released, but I figured as much after speaking with Popp last week. He really seemed to like what Fajardo has to offer.

DB Harris, a 2nd round pick. Might be someone to look for. WR Harris, had some nice punt return numbers in college, and has decent size.

[Wobbler]

The Jeff Mathews signing likely had Popp's blessing, so yeah, Kilgore looked vulnerable. Especially if Popp expressed interest in Fajardo (I didn't know that). I don't think he played himself off the team last year - despite the INTs - but he didn't secure a spot either.
