wbbfan Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 riders cut a few prior to free agency. Dylan ainsworth a DL / teamer NI would be solid. Shamawd chambers could be use full in TC with the weak performance of our ni wrs last year. Mitchell gale was also let go. Wasnt he supposed to be apart of the qb situation that would certainly be better then what ever we have this coming year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insurance against Rider fans storming the new stadium with pitchforks and torches (SK eatin' utensils) before the season even starts. Now that is deferred until week 7.

WBBFanWest Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 I understand he was battling depression. Which it turns out, was caused by looking out his window every morning and realizing where he was.

Said outside of being named GC MOC in 2015 (i think he had like 2 catches in the game) it was a big ol Meh, as the guy did sweet F all otherwise. It was quite amusing watching their collective bubbles burst by week 5 that the guy wasn't worth 90% of the $170K they were paying him. Personally I wouldn't touch him. If we dont trade away any of our picks this year I expect one of our higher picks to go for a NI receiver and part ways with Richards. JFG/Kohlert/New guy is how i see it Edited January 27, 2017 by Taynted_Fayth Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Unger Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 I'd be interested in Chambers. I'm tired of Kohlert's drops considering the only thing he was bringing to the table was supposed to be sure hands. Chamber's has the ability to be more dynamic if you take advantage of him like I know Paul LaPolice would be capable of. I'm also interest in Gale to add a little bit more experience behind Nichols and somebody to push Dom Davis for the backup job. Judd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would still like to see kohlert in TC, but coming in having to fight and win a spot. He was pretty awful last year. Gale wouldnt be the top of the list for the back up spot but would still be solid. If davis goes into tc as qb2 ill be scared. 9 minutes ago, Zontar said: How any rider player can be fairly evaluated during that train wreck in SSK last year is beyond me.

Same goes for MTL. 2 minutes ago, Floyd said: I thought Ainsworth was a pretty good backup DL and ST... he'll get picked up quick Nichols-Gale-Davis would be nice. Yeah he was really good on teams the last 2 years and has up side. Hes only 24 years old too. His cutting is crazy. Maybe he really wants a chance to start?

The Bombers were waiting on free agency to bring that other guy in, whether it was going to be LeFevour, Crompton, etc. Now Gale's in the running and the Bombers don't have to wait til Valentine's Day if they want to choo choo choose him.

Doesn't seem that perplexing to me - Glenn was scheduled to be a free agent; ie we can't force him to stay here. He finished last year 3rd on the depth chart. He undoubtedly wanted to find a team where he could be 2nd or 1st on the depth chart, and make more money as well. We wouldn't make that commitment and let him go early so he could find that team. Turns out there was a trainwreck about to happen just one province over. Now he gets to be the conductor on that trainwreck. Good for him I suppose.

If that's how it played out, sure makes sense ($ and pecking order) but the obvious risk we're taking is overrating Dom Davis if something goes awry with Nichols. I have a feeling if Nichols went down for some reason last season, we would have seen Glenn regardless of 3rd string status. Anyways, now that he is with Sask I hope him nothing but good fortune with a 0 and 18 record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
