CFL's Saskatchewan Roughriders add Trey Lance to their negotiating rights list

The ole Warren Moon trick....

 

[jazzcat22]

Moon’s skill set going into the CFL was much higher than Treys. There’s no comparison in the two.

Yes I know. But just had to say it for the fun of it.

I’m rollin!

 

[foofighters]

Well im not a football player. Im like a Patrick Mahomes in my career field, ya heard meh?

So a non football player is telling someone who did make it that they suck. Seems credible...

 

[gtb1943]

Moon needed how many years in the CFL?

not saying it cannot happen as obviously it can.

Not many QBs have made it big in both leagues as the Canadian game is very different.

But for a guy who needs real work, I think that is the best solution for him now.

I’m no Lance fan and the trade made no sense for Dallas but he isn’t so bad to where he shouldn’t get an NFL backup job.

His problem is he needed reps with a non contender, but for some reason GM Jerry thought the Dallas bench would work out well for everyone.

Last year he had a chance to get reps with a non-contender but it didn't happen.

His Dad played for Saskatchewan.

Glen Chico Resch was born in Moose Jaw Saskatchewan......hollowed ground

Embarrassing for the “he’s better than Dak” crowd.

 

[raw2war]

Remember when some posters here were implying Dallas was holding Trey Lance back from playing because they were hiding him in the depth charts. Pepperidge Farms remembers

 

[shabazz]

HOLD ON say what!!?????? They're finally making me a *od?????????

I hate to say it brother, but it looks like your gonna have to insist the implementation of the Rooney Rule to get this mod gig......try getting the ACLU to represent you since their not doing anything of value these days

Yup.....all 7 people on this site are gonna have to eat crow

Very credible

 

[Walker]

We are likely to go after Ewers knowing jerry

Right. McCarthy wanted to win games for his own sake. The case was made that they wanted to keep Lances price down and retain him as a backup.

Who knows what went on behind the scenes, but this franchise is all over the place with its line of thinking. Too many cooks in the kitchen and none of them are all that great.

It’s headed toward a bad place and that’s ultimately a good thing. Just gotta wait it out.

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

Best place for him.

 

[dupree89]

. I’m wondering how much he would make in the CFL compared to a minimum wage contract for the NFL.

This should give you an idea....its all downhill from this guy:


Nathan Rourke is the highest-paid CFL player of 2024. He plays quarterback for the B.C. Lions and earns $600,000 yearly. Rourke's popularity in Canada and his play when he was last with the Lions in 2022 justify the top salary. He signed for the Lions in August after getting cut by the NFL's Atlanta Falcons.

 

[nalam]

Lol, waste a 4th rounder and the guy ends up in the CFL the next year, Mingo will probably be next

Its true Jerry is fleeced , Both 49ers and Panthers would have cut bait with these players but gladly would have accepted a sixth round pick , instead Jerry gave them 4th round picks.

I was going to say something that's in the lines of this so I don't get banned for a day or whatever, so I'll plead the fifth my brother!!

 

[4lifecowboy]

Correct but just not for the Cowboys.

I would take him over Grier easily

 

[Jarntt]

Good for him. He seems like a good kid. I hope he finds a way to make himself an NFL QB. Personally I don’t think he ever will be but I’m rooting for him.
