@TheJCAbbott Not surprising if you watched the outstanding CFL Draft coverage by @3DownNation. You guys were down on the Alouettes' draft from draft night.
If we started our team with a RB room of Matthew Peterson, Mario Anderson and Deonta McMahon, we would be ready to compete day 1.
All of those guys were released and/or added to practice squads yesterday.
The CFL needs expansion.

The CFL needs expansion. #CFL#CFLExpansion
If you want proof of the need for a 10th (and 11th and 12th) CFL team, just look at the amount of talented players cut yesterday.
There were also a lot of young Canadians cut who could have a chance to develop on practice squads if there were more teams. #CFL#CFLExpansion
It's time for the final vote for the identity of the Québec CFL 2027 shadow team.
Please choose the name that most closely fits Québec and the CFL.
Spread the word and help us find our identity.

.@TSNDaveNaylor - "When it does comes to expansion, I don't think the league is thinking Atlantic Canada. I think they're thinking Quebec City. I think they (@CFL) think that's the market that has more potential."
