Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 01/04/2009 (6273 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
The Winnipeg Blue Bombers have shipped Dan Goodspeed, their top offensive lineman two years running, to the Saskatchewan Roughriders for receiver Adarius Bowman as part of a complicated deal that involves draft picks and players off the negotiation list.
The Riders then shipped Goodspeed to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats.
While the dust settles on the two trades, here’s what we can tell you:
❚ Winnipeg sent to Saskatchewan Goodspeed, the negotiation list rights to running back Tyler Roehl, a fifth-round pick in the 2009 draft (originally acquired from Saskatchewan for Jermese Jones), a fifth-round pick in the 2011 or 2012 draft and one of the following: the option to swap first-round picks in either 2010 or 2011 or two future second-round draft picks from Winnipeg.
❚ The Bombers land Bowman, the import receiver who had 23 catches for 358 yards and three TDs last year as well as Canadian lineman Jean François Morin-Roberge, former University of Manitoba defensive back Brady Browne, a player from the Riders’ neg list, the Riders’ sixth-round pick in the 2010 draft and the Riders’ fifth-round pick in the 2012 draft.
Saskatchewan then sent Goodspeed and the fifth-rounder they re-acquired from Winnipeg to Hamilton for import offensive tackle Jordan Rempel and Hamilton’s second-round pick in this year’s draft (9th overall).
