Noeller Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 well that's not the point.....aren't we just fantasizing about great CFL receivers for our team? I mean, Montreal isn't going to get rid of Carter, no matter how much of an asshat he might be.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigblue204 Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Anyone who wants Carter on their team deserves what they get... I used to be a fan. But watching him this year, he's proven to be a talented receiver doesn't think he has to try...ever. even he knows he's a ******* idiot if you watch his interview with cabby Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuranBoldenRules Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 You guys watch too much hockey. Midseason football trades are nothing like what's proposed in this thread. You'd probably get a draft pick for Willy or neg listers. Goalie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebusrankin Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Willy, Smith, Mach Harris and a year's supply of Booster Juice for Glen, Carter, a 2nd and a third. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracker Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 If Willy is going anywhere, it will happen next week. If Popp allows Carter to get away with badmouthing the team and alienating the rest of the team, he deserves to go for a long walk on a short plank. Montreal is scrooged for this year, so Popp has the luxury of taking his time, but for Toronto, the playoffs are on the verge of disappearing over the horizon. If the Argos are going to do something, they need Glenn or Willy right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pigseye Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Why not play the Agros and Als off against each other, isn't that what Wally did with Riley, getting the best possible return. Willy for Glenn, screw the Argos on both ends forcing them to sweeten the pot for Willy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebusrankin Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Apparently, we owe him 200k next April. Can't pay him that so you likely cut him. Trade gets you assets back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goalie Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Yup. You gonna either cut him or get something for him. I'd take the get something for him everyday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noeller Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Not going anywhere this season unless it's a ridiculous overpayment by Barker which is unlikely. This year is taken care of... Let it be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goalie Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 (edited) Since it's all speculation... here's a what is scenario... what if the bombers have decided that they aren't going to give willy his 200 K In April 2017 and are just going to release him before. Wouldn't the idea of getting something now in return for a guy who perhaps had no future here make more sense than just letting him go for basically nothing in the off season? ? I'd trade him if I got my price. I mean coombs and a first is better than nothing. That's 2 potential Canadian starters at worst backups for a guy who might not be here next season Edited September 11, 2016 by Goalie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest J5V Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 I think Willy has earned all monies due him because of the absolute **** kicking he was subjected to while here. He kept going out there, game after game, getting his head kicked in. Give the man his money and keep him as a backup. He may yet prove his worth. We owe him that, at least O'Shea and Walters do.

This team is a contender. Why would you make a move that ends your shot if Nichols gets injured? If you're 1 and 10 you might think about "assets," if you're 7-4 you think about winning more games and getting to the Grey Cup this season. yogi, Rich, Jimmy Pop and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya, no. If he made faster decisions and helped relieve the pressure himself that wouldn't have been the case. The biggest misunderstanding I find occurs here is people think our offensive line did this magical 180 when Nichols went in. Not so. Our new starter simply makes fast reads and dumps the ball away when there's pressure. He also takes a lot of hits but stands in the pocket and gets the ball out. Happened several times yesterday. Willy did himself no favours and is absolutely as much to blame for him getting knocked around as our line. That's the truth. He wasn't a golden boy 400k bonafide star qb so many of us do desperately wanted to believe he was. He was a mistake. To the credit of MOS he was able to identify it and move on in time to save his job and our season. I'm now firmly in support of O'Shea and will eat crow on him being a good coach at this point. rebusrankin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBURGESS Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 2014 Willy was good backup we need to keep. 2016 Willy, not so much. If Nichols goes down, our season goes with him, unless Davis plays better than expected or we keep Willy and he returns to a pre-2016 version of him.

No, the biggest misconception is that it needs to be one or the other. At some point I would like to see I would what Willy can do behind the revamped OL - that doesn't make me wrong and it doesn't mean I believe in some mythical 180 Goalie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
