I know we have been scratching our heads about the Butler for Flick and Smith trade, but I was just looking around and came across the 2005 trade RB Troy Davis and OL Dan Comiskey. We got from Edmonton WR Brock Ralph along with DB Tay Cody and a first-round pick in the 2006 Canadian College Draft and who did we draft with that first round pick? Jesse Lumsden?
To add to that.. I really think Tad Cody is the best Ti-Cats D player in the last decade. He is easily at the Grover Covington level. Big score for us.
Ya sorry Lumsden was drafted in 2005 I've been trying to look for the guy we drafted in 2006 I know we drafted Peter Dyakowski but that was in the second round.
Hey G Bonds......you're not THE Gary U.S. Bonds are you?
Anyways, the Cats did draft some pretty good players when Marshall was here. Not to take anything away from Marcel, but boy Marshall did have a eye from Canadian talent.
Crash, well said. Cody seems to be a solid player, but Joe let us to the 99 Cup. Dominating defensive player. Teams changed their schemes to deal with him and we still ran the table.
I wish Cody was that good. Don't get me wrong, he's good. But I grew up watching Harold Woods, Felix Wright and Jim Rockford.
yup Hamilton is easily the worst team of the decade. I know how it feels. Being a Rider fan back during the 90s was not easy...
Riders win in 89 and were brutal the following decade
Hamilton wins in 99 and were brutal the following decade as well
Weird bit of info but back on topic I'd say your best trade still was getting Holmes although he has not been utilized yet to his potential. If Hamilton had kept the number 1 draft pick and we kept Holmes who would Hamilton have picked or who would you Hamilton fans have liked to pick from the Ottawa dispersal draft??
