Now we know how Stampeders fans have felt, year after year.

100% the truth.

And the Argos mined that source way more than any other CFL team.

Tough losses the Argos have just faced, but I'm pretty confident in this Argo brain-trust to still be able to put together a very strong team.

As far as new RBs; K. Carey is a very good talent, but maybe not what he once was. Really love to see Adeboboye get a real shot and McMahon might prove a good change of pace quicker back type. Also like to see them sign vet big powerback M-Litre from Ottawa - very under-rated IMO; and there is a chance to maybe draft Alberta RB Matt Peterson off a superb U Sports rushing season. A new import RB or two with nice resumes could still be signed for TC.

Lots of options / lotsa real TC competition please.

As I told my son when he told me that the Argos were getting spanked in free agency, we will see who the Argos bring in as free agents before we can fully judge how well they did. This is where Murphy, Magri et al will really earn their coin in bringing in new players

Remember no ink has been signed. This is the open week for other teams and FA's to talk to each other. The Argos will have one day before FA officially opens and can match or raise the other teams offer. And the player can change their mind.
As for Ouellette, it hurts to lose a fan favourite, but I'd rather spend big on the o-line then over pay a RB.
And I have faith in Pinball, Murphy, and Magri.

I for one will be very surprised if the Argos try to get into a bidding war for any of the guys who have worked out deals elsewhere. Once a player leaks out that he's moving to X team, that bridge has been burned. If there are still guys unannounced by the weekend, I imagine we will still be in on them. But Ouellette, Peters, Hendrix, Leake, Barlow and anyone else I've missed are gone, IMO.

I wonder what Chad Kelly is thinking after restructuring his contract to give them more cap space to re-sign these guys, only to lose them all.

An interesting point for sure.
Who are they capable of signing moving forward, are they strapped against the cap?
Interesting to watch the Bombers retain a good chunk of their highly touted free agents yesterday at significant $$$?
