rebusrankin Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 Interesting what the differences between the bonuses for Willy and Nicholas are and how much they balance out in terms of our cap. Also wonder how much we've saved with Keeping being on the 6 game all season and Neufeld potentially on there for one third to half the season. Darvin Adams too.

But it would be good to know if either Davis or Bennett can function well in a game situation. Practice is nice but nowhere as immediate or chaotic as it is during a game. A little playing time for the backup can be a good thing. Could be having Davis in short yardage or garbage time. Tracker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, he's always had a good OL in front of him. He's taken some big hits & injuries like a broken collarbone & torn hamstring but never the kind of leg injury Willy suffered.

Franklin doesn't want to go to F.A. what he probably wants is a shot at a starting job and a big contract. If that can be pre-arranged prior to F.A. I think he'd be happy.

We were the last available team with an open spot when we made that trade, so I guess it depends on how it goes down. at the moment, there are multiple teams with starting QB up for grabs and he might want the opportunity to choose his opportunity.

Bigblue204 Posted August 23, 2016 Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 I don't get the Cato love. He's looked like hot garbage his last few outings. And how can anyone say he's better than any of our back ups (davis/bennet) we've barely seen either play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if he isnt the future, and they fall out of contention which would be a couple loses away, they need to move away from glenn. Too much money on a team thats in cap trouble plus they have young guys and if you arent winning you gotta be developing guy that will help you win.

Atomic Posted August 23, 2016 Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 James Franklin is probably the most coveted young QB in the league right now, there could be interest in him from both Montreal and Saskatchewan, and even Winnipeg if the season goes awry... or maybe Winnipeg will be interested regardless. I could see him getting moved in a deal similar to what Edmonton paid to get Mike Reilly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueandgold Posted August 23, 2016 Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 I don't see why Franklin would go to the Riders if he's offered the same money/opportunity elsewhere. The Argos should also be meintoned as a team potentially interested in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jpan85 Posted August 23, 2016 Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 He would not have to learn a new offence. He would be no questioned starter. Montreal spent a first rounder on Adams no way they take on another quarterback. Milonovich has backed him self into a corner with Ray. Last seat left is Riders maybe Bombers. Franklin is a 100% the QB Jones wanted in Edmonton. I would not of been surprised if they would of moved Reiley at some point in 2017 or 2018 if he would of stayed.

Lots of heresy and speculation in this post. Ray is just about done, the bigger question is whether or not Franklin fits the Milanovich system. Either way, when a good young QB becomes a free agent, unexpected teams will take a seat at the table. Let's not forget when we assumed ZacH Collaros was coming here, due to Winnipeg being the one obvious option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Franklin will be a huge gamble for any team if he's anointed starter next season. Without a vet QB in place to back him up there is a very good chance the wolves devour him, especially if he lands in Sask. if they dump Durant.

He looked good for 2 games last year but lots of backup QBs look good for a couple games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
