hopefully the start of luring Harris and Ellingson from Ottawa
If we don't land a quality QB we are in for a very long painful season.I wish that Larry Dean deal was longer but that's a good signing. I like SirVincent Rogers too on on OL which needs help. I wonder what the contract is.
Need more D and obviously a QB and another receiver (please let us land Harris and Ellingson).
This is actually a pretty exciting day for the CFL. Lots of movement everywhere.
Interesting that the Eskimos matched the Lions offer and Reilly still said no thanks. Speaks volumes of what he thinks of our **** show. If he really loved Maas the way we were told, no way he leaves for identical money.
This. He is on the decline. Couldn't move the ball in the second half the last 2 years. Has never learned to look off a receiver .
His eloquence and charm has masked his deficiency as a QB
Time to move on.
The guy is going back to the guy that gave him his chance to be a star in the league.Agreed, but its a mistake for Reilly imo.
He leaves a legacy here, and his best days and games and results quite clearly here. Somebody like Tom Wilkinson always understood that and made this his community. Maybe those are different times but Reilly won't find he has much following in BC. He's also a declining star and maybe he thinks he can rise to dominance three and make another legacy but I think Edmonton will always be his shining moment. In life, and this is just philosophical, you shouldn't be in any hurry to leave those, they don't always come around again.
WTF is Ottawa doing? Also read that they didn't even offer Powell a contract? Probably going to lose Harris and Ellingson next.

You add that and the money and maybe the location, to go with the **** show that is going on here and it's not really even that hard of a decision to make IMO

Wally isn’t there anymore. Hard to judge them on anything that’s happened in the past.Following one guy to another org is not always the best plan either. I like and respect Hervey, I'm sure Reilly does but its a new org and the same one that looked off Reilly and that shafted Lulay. Lets not pretend that the Lions have had a history of being loyal to QB;s Hervey or not, and Jennings is the latest guy they have derailed.
As bad as the Esks org is Reilly is going to miss I think playing in a City where the CFL even matters. He'll go from name and face recognition to being anonymous, to having poorly attended gamees, to an environment where QB's are seen as flavor of the week.
For sure Reilly could have a longer career in Edmonton, with the cred he has built up here, than In Vancouver where I don't put his remaining career past 2 seasons if that.
Gonna just put this out there:
Esks will be a better team with Harris + the rest of the signings today than with Reilly + Walker + Sherritt.

Grymes leaving?

Nonsense. This is all about family and location.
