    Argos sign ex-Steeler receiver Martavis Bryant

    Big target receiver who had some good NFL production (before getting suspended for substance issues?)

    Another Argo saviour, or another ex-NFL hero bust for the Argos ? ;o) Ricky Williams cup of CFL coffee till he goes back home ?

    Guess this guy still wanted to play pro ball and/or needed the coin? Wonder what his Argo contract looks like ?

    Potentially a huge talent addition. From what I have managed to glean, the substance abuse issues appear to be related to his use of cannabis, which up here is not illegal. The only question will be his attitude. With the right attitude he could be a very valuable receiver for the team.

    Very low risk, high reward move by the Argos. I love it.

    Just watched his interview on the Rod Pederson show. He sounds like he's got the right attitude. Just want's to play some more football. Perhaps he's matured a bit too. Should be interesting.
    Curious has any Toronto media had him on at all?

    Rumour has it Josh Gordon, another pot head, may be interested in continue playing and Argos hold his rights

    I've heard Gordon's last NFL shot did not go well, that he looked like a shadow of his old self. No harm in bringing him in for a look-see, but I'd be keeping expectations low until proven otherwise.

    I actually liked Ricky Williams during his Argo days and thought he ran hard. Unfortunate that he was injured.

    He had a couple of big years post CFL with Miami as well so no disrespect from me for Ricky. I wish him well in life.
