montford

Does anyone know what has happened with montford

Do you think we should bring him back???

how many times r we going to go through this people.. we wot get him unless he lowers his price and is willing to be a back up.

winnipeg should sign him and drop hebert

I forgot the sarcasm emoticon (ok…no I didnt forget it…i hate them).

It was a shot at how many times this topic has been brought up in different ways…and how many people have asked if we were going to get him.

For the record, I thikn our team will be just fine without him this year…although I respect his contributions to the organization.

a source i know from the team said it’s unlikely as it comes down to marshall’s desire for the proper team chemistry more than the all mighty dollar

The Saskatchewan Roughriders offered Joe Montford a chance to prove the Edmonton Eskimos wrong.

After being cut by the Esks in April, the Riders made a contract offer to the future CFL Hall of Famer this spring, but Montford rejected it - and wasn’t battling in the trench at Commonwealth Stadium last night when the Riders paid a visit for their final preseason game.

Montford’s salary package in Edmonton last year was $165,000, but the Riders reportedly offered less than $100,000, possibly even half of what he made last year.
