fosey58 Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Highly, highly doubt Willy plays this weekend. By the time he gets to Argo land, he will only have a day or 2 to learn an entire system. Plus TO just came of a win against Ticats with Leferour.

rebusrankin Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 So if we win Saturday, it helps us two ways. 1. We move closer to a playoff spot. 2. We improve the chances that the Argos pick is top 3. M.O.A.B., SPuDS, blitzmore and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B ) if you don't see this as a huge win for us and Walters, you are deliberately looking for negatives. I hate Glenn. It's well known and documented.. that said, he is one of the best backups in the league. cheaper then Willy and I'd honestly trust him over Willy at this point. we CAN win with Glenn if push comes to shove.. Willy is still an unknown. adding one very good DB to the mix of our current crop is not a bad thing.. never have too much depth in the cfl where injuries happen daily. Plus 1 first rounder and a 3rd rounder?? great deal by Walters and nobody here can tell me that Glenn isn't at LEAST as good as Willy.. Minimum. they are a wash and we got lots of assets back.. also my quoting is broken Quote Quote Getting a first rounder in the deal is outstanding... And I have no idea why this thing is showing additional quote boxes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 I can't believe people are unhappy with Glenn? He's played way better then Willy has in the last two seasons. The Als and Riders offenses were completely broken and he still managed to out up decent numbers. With Lapolices short pass offense and the improvement of our o line he should do really well here. Our QB depth definitely took a step forward today. blitzmore, iso_55, Dragon37 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, short of an injury or major poopage of the bed we wont see willy. Not to mention he doesnt know the tor system yet. But the defense for the argos will have a huge huge advantage now. They will know that we arent gonna run harris when we should and that all passes will be 7 yards or shorter. what ever will we do? comedygeek 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sign a guy to a massive contract and trade him Let's hope this doesn't bite us. hardly, they acquired him for cheap and moved him for more than they gave up to get him when another player had replaced him on the roster. It's really good asset management to be honest. Glenn is probably still a better qb than both Willy and Nichols at this point so we upgraded the qb position AND got a first round pick and pretty good player as well. Not too shabby.

They look to have learned that lesson with Nichols though. Imagine if they'd had this kind of offensive line when Willy first got here? None of those injuries, none of the constant beatings.

So you'd rather they keep him no matter what, just so they would never have to admit that maybe things didn't work out they way they had hoped. I'd expect a little better from them than that.

iso_55 Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 (edited) At some point the Bombers had to cut bait & go home. Willy's time was over. I had a feeling it was. The Bombers obviously don't think Willy will progress any further developmental wise from now on. They see him everyday at practice & in meetings. There must've been something there they didn't like or were concerned about. Is Willy any better than LeFevour? Did anyone ever think we'd get anywhere near what we got from the Argos for Willy? I sure didn't. We came out smelling like a rose, I believe. Edited September 12, 2016 by iso_55 TBURGESS, SPuDS, Blue-urns and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he was suggesting that SJ Green was the reason that Montreal might have cap issues (which also doesn't make sense since Green is injured). I think the Bombers were robbing people today.

wbbfan Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 who wants to play the grade the deals game? Bombers A MFing plus. Maybe a plus plus. Legit all star db, first round pick that could be top half of the draft then a depth pick to boot the next year. argos C minus. Got the guy they needed, but really over paid. Bombers B+/A. If glenn can be content to be a back up and doesnt cause a distraction, or if he takes over the starting job at some point its an A. Other wise it a B+. als B- They needed to move on to playing a qb who could be qb of the future for them. They got some solid NI value in the pick. But looking at what we got for willy says they should have gotten some more value then that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
