I would love the Stamps to sign Dressler for no other reason than the pure rage it would create in the rectangle to the East.

Call me crazy, but if I'm a Riders fan, I'd rather have Dressler than Getzlaf as part of my receiving core.

/I mean, I can't think Dressler is making that much more than Getzlaf.

Edit: Just realized Getzlaf is a free agent, so he might not be back either with the Riders.

Weston Dressler and John Chick, who would've made a combined $500,000 this year, have been released by the #Roughriders. #CFL

Agree 100%, but Getzlaf is Canadian. Passport means a lot up here.

Can't have 2 guys make 10% of the cap, especially a non QB. EDIT: with a little more thought I'm not sure this is necessarily true. Certainly the releases give the new regime cap flexibility and I've been expecting the Dressler release since Jones got hired. Small players aren't really Jones' style when you try to build a bully. All his defenses/teams as long as he's been in the league have been bullies

Sounds like the Rider have signed Shawn Lemon, younger and should be as good/better than Chick. On my phone or I'd post the tsn link

A tweet from Farhan is pretty much good enough for me:

On the day they release John Chick, it sounds like DE Shawn Lemon has agreed to terms with #Riders. #cfl

The parting gift from Brendan Taman?

Jamie Nye@jamienye
Chris Jones admits both players were due roster bonuses coming up. #riders

Just my opinion, I expect Jones/Murphy to be serious bidders for Trevor Harris.

Also, Edmonton DL Willie Jefferson has signed a contract with the Washington Redskins.

Kirk Penton – ‏@PentonKirk

Sounds like the #Stampeders are going to kick the tires on Weston Dressler as well. #CFL

Need a replacement for Eric Rogers (I doubt he'll be back). In Huf I trust.

Not unexpected, that's for sure. It definitely leaves a huge gap in the Stamps receiving corps though.

Given their receiving core thats a good choice.

Given their Qb, thats a bad choice. However, Gabbert did look ok in limited games though.

Duron Carter is back with the Als. Herb Zurkowsky tweeted that he will likely become the highest paid receiver in the league.

Terell Sinkfield has signed a deal with Minnesota Vikings.

Dressler to Winnipeg is done.

Good get for a team that needed to make a splash this off-season - but who's going to throw to him?

The first catchable ball that Mo Price drops at Mosaic Stadium should garner quite the reaction from the Rider faithful.
