CFL 2025

Lewis and Bede gone is like well over 800K lol.

We do need two kickers and more receivers, so will be interesting to watch this unfold further.

I love the comments on social media today, that the league has to investigate what the Elkimos are doing, how it’s not fair, etc. The hate is back and I love it.

Hervey comes out SWINGING.

Let's go!

Apparently Ed Hervey has reached agreement with your missing r.

Looks like they're using some of that Lewis/Bede money wisely.

I think it's just best to wait until the free agency period comes and goes and then see where we're at before making some concrete judgements.

I think maybe we can make some of those judgements now!

Watching from the outside, I can’t disagree with that. He’s putting on a bit of a master class for other sit in their hand GMs to watch and learn from.

PS - Enjoyed the moxy of responding to your own post!! Full Deion Sanders. Lol.

Haven't been following the CFL as closely recently, but these moves seem...... good?

Jeezus, we have a big chunk of the Argos offensive and defensive lines from last year.

 

[Paralyzer]

From what I have seen, the Elks really want to change things around finally. No more over-paying for some superstar receiver or filling a position that's already filled. I really hope this year we are competitive.

Probably the best FA haul in CFL history.

Way too premature to declare that. Seen many teams blow their load only to not have the team gel.

I'm certainly hopeful since they've agressively looked at addressing areas of weakness, but our receivers and kicking game is a major question mark. Fortunately those are two positions that you can sometimes find cheap unknowns that can do well with the opportunity, but those positions can also easily lose you games if you don't get some reasonable talent. Fortunately Hervey has found some rookie gems at the former position. Not sure if he's got the chops to find the latter, but hopefully a Special Teams specialist as head coach might be able to give some good advice on what to look for.
