    On paper there doesn't seem to be any comparison between Jones and Charette. Charette was drafted 36th and jones 4th overall. Charette was released in June and no team has shown any interest in him till now. Jones is bigger stronger and faster, so it does make some sense that the team is thinking of trading him, while they can still get something in exchange. Hopefully it is not to Hamilton, as I dread to think of ones coming back to haunt us in a Ti-Cat uniform.
    Based on Popp's record in the past, I think you've hit the nail on the head.

    It looks like we released Alford and Tuck yesterday.

    A tad surprising on Alford given that Akwasi Owusu-Ansah got hurt on Saturday (not that the former is up to the level of the latter). Maybe another move or signing is in the works?

    AK is (surprisingly) only day-to-day, but yeah: I just noticed a new name on the roster. Apparently we signed DB Khalid Wooten today. Wooten was released by the Cats a few days ago, after starting a few games at boundary half and boundary corner.

    Does that mean Jones may finally get a chance to get in at TE or something since Tuck is gone!!

    Wooten was originally signed by Popp last year in Montreal so there is a connection.

    Tuck has been on the PR since week 4, and probably decided he had had enough. It doesn't look like we urgently needed his PR spot for someone else.

    I was surprised for the same reason.

    Another DB was added so it makes a little more sense now.

    Looks like Cash had some kind of setback or a new injury - we put him on the six game IR yesterday. It's starting to look like he'll miss the entire season.

    He dressed for the win against Montreal, I was there but I don't know if he got many snaps. Apparently he had an off season procedure, but everything is tight lipped. Too bad but nice to have Wynn and Bishop in the lineup.

    An infection in the leg has hampered Cash this season.

    In addition to Mitchell White (mentioned in the NFL airlift thread), we picked up NAT DB Anthony Coady today. I'm not sure how he compares with Woodson or Webster, but I guess we'll find out.

    Coady was a very good safety in CIS ball with the Carabins, plus played some for the Als on STs; good signing IMO, and probably a much more capable player than Webster on D - if he can play STs well, a good back-up safety too maybe.

    Could be White will be replacing Matt Black at CB, with safety becoming a Canadian position again. Coady signed for more depth there. Vaughan back to LB.

    I look forward to having AK and White on the corners. Hope Black is kept. Still think he is a usefully vet.

    We just signed Bryan Tyms, who was released by Hamilton earlier this week.

    He looked really good late last season. Hamilton stinks!

    Without divulging too much from what I have seen in practice the last 3 days, I can say that a lot of people on here are going to be happy that Jeff Fuller's days might be numbered. My educated guess is he will not be in the line-up Saturday.
    It's us vs the rest of the country

    It's always sad to see a once very capable player, no longer able to perform at his expected level. However, it is even sadder when a more deserving player is not being dressed. Fuller just looked as if he had not been able to overcome the loss of athletic ability caused by previous injuries.
