ARGOS, ALOUETTES SWAP KICKERS
The Toronto Argonauts Football Club announced today they have acquired K/P Boris Bede from Montreal in exchange for K Tyler Crapigna.
Bede, 30, has played his entire five-year, 80-game career in Montreal and in 2019 the native of Toulon, France converted on 31-of-35 field goals (88.6%), while leading the league in kickoff yards (5,772) and kickoff average (69.5), while finishing third in the CFL in punt average for punters who had at least 100 punts (44.6). The 6’4 kicker is the CFL’s all-time leader in kickoff average at 69.3 yards, more than 3 yards longer than number two on the list. The Tiffin University and Laval University alum was a CFL East All-Star in 2015 after nailing 36-of-40 field goals (90.0%). For his career, Bede has made 141-of-171 field goals for 82.5% and has kicked at least a 52-yard field goal in each of his five seasons while accumulating a punt average of 44.2 on 510 punts.

Sounds like a money deal. I expect Bede is paid more. Good trade for both clubs.

This is so accurate Ray! The way Rider fans think.
They just signed Shaq to a high end deal now Derel Walker is a must have, you know even after signing JWL to a deal last year. We also have a top flight running back so we need to look at CJ Gable now. O-Line? Yep we’ve paid five starters now we need another legitimate starter with a high contract.
Cap? what is a cap?
