The Saskatchewan Roughriders have
traded national running back Jerome Messam and the fifth round selection in the
2016 CFL Draft acquired earlier in the day to the Calgary Stampeders in
exchange for national kicker Tyler Crapigna, a 3rd round selection

2014 CFL Draft. The McMaster product graduated as the CIS all-time leader in
field goals with 84.

Now this trade just plain ridiculous.
What is ridiculous about this when Messam apparently had no intentions of wanting to play here next season? Sounds to me like O'Day got some good value for this guy. Would you rather him play at the chance of getting a 3rd win and let him go next year for nothing?
I hated this trade until O'Day explained it with you and Rod tonight. I had no idea he was a free agent and it sounds like he wasn't coming back. Hate seeing him go to Calgary, but getting what we get is better than nothing.

I'm guessing there couldn't have been any takers for Dropslaf? Not that surprising though! Who would want him. Riders can't cut him soon enough as far as I am concerned,
