  1. Walkers a great player, but a guy like Armanti Edwards could be a productive player for us at half the cost.
  2. Who’s the last great receiver we had? Terrence Edwards? It’s been a really long time.
  3. Walters has done a great job, he's brought pretty much everyone back that he can. I wouldn't mind seeing Derek Jones and Thomas Miles back as well as a receiver or DB. But I'd say free agency has worked out well even if we stand pat.
  4. God forbid someone has a different opinion than the peanut gallery on our mediocre underachieving former QB. Nichols is a fine backup but he’s a walking glass ceiling and his limitations became even more obvious when we put Collaros in the lineup.
  5. Except we beat nothing but garbage teams with Nichols. We got a win over Calgary that was due to Janarion Grant and a timely interception, aside from that we beat horrible teams and pissed away a huge lead against Toronto. Collaros (2x), Streveler and Nichols all started against Calgary and Nichols had BY FAR the worst game of the bunch. Let’s stop pretending that Nichols had anything to do with our wins. We won a Grey Cup without Nichols, which is something we never came close to achieving with him.
  6. This picture is missing Jason Boltus. That would truly show the incompetence of Bellfool.
  7. Arbuckle is asking for 450K, he likely gets more. Fajardo is around 450K IIRC. This is the standard market rate for a good but not great starting QB. Not to mention that Collaros is a big upgrade over Nichols.
  8. Huge signing, I’m happy to see it. I wish Strev wasn’t NFL bound as Collaros and Streveler are a lethal duo.
  9. I still have PTSD from drafting anyone with the name “Mulumba” or “Muamba” for that that matter.
  10. Ray dressed as a backup with the Jets for a handful of games in 04. Printers was signed and cut by the chiefs at the end of the preseason.
  11. We’ll be saying the same thing going into 2021.
  12. Masoli wasn’t signed to be the backup.
  13. Traded to us for pennies on the dollar as a pending FA I believe.
  14. Not quite sure I understand all the love for MBT. His ceiling seems to be quality back up in my mind.
  15. Woli definitely has the ability to be a prime Jason Clermont type of player.
  16. It’s nice to have our championship front office and coach return. Someone who posts on Rider Fans go ask Rider Stronson if this is still “great news” for the Riders.
  17. You’re saying we had 6 NI’s like it was a bad thing. Our OL is the best in the league and Harris is the best RB in the league. Lapo used Demski more than any of the import receivers and Woli is a talented albeit under-utilized player.
  18. You think Masoli is going to sign as a backup? No chance.
  19. To be honest, all of the rules that are being implemented next year seem to be terrible. I think we'll see quite a few of them reverted fairly quickly.
  20. There would be no Nichols/Collaros debate or compassion if Collaros had the opportunity to beat up on low hanging fruit like Toronto and Ottawa. We played Calgary four times this year and our O had its worst game (by far) when Nichols started.
  21. Saying that Collaros didn't do anything Nichols wouldn't is a classic case of looking at the stats sheet to compare them Collaros's ability to use his legs to extend the play is a huge advantage over Nichols. Collaros also stretched the field much better than Nichols. I wouldn't be so quick to shortchange Collaros's impact. Not to mention the fact that his four games were against the 2nd ,3rd, and 4th best teams.
  22. Or that we fired Doug Berry to hire “Lord Lyles” best friend Mike Kelly.
  23. So forgive my ignorance, but what’s the best way to handle an event like this as a spectator? Going to the forks at the end?
  24. I wish Riderfans didn’t lose their data. I still vividly remember that clown (RS) posting in a thread about Walters/MOS’s last extensions stating that “as a rider fan, this is great news”. I would love to see his opinion on that post now that we have a Grey Cup win and 2 more playoff wins than the Riders at their own freaking stadium.
  25. Even the Rider fans were complaining about how horrific that was.
