Not exactly comparable. And Nichols has suffered a knee injury in the past (right ACL in 2013). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do have 2 first round picks next year. If Nichols was out for the year I would look trading the farm to get somebody like Franklin or Masoli.

The Ticats would love to have an excuse to go with Manziel while collecting assets. Plus, they’d still have a component back up in Adams. With that being said, I would probably prefer Adams to Masoli. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unknown Poster Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 Hoping for the best. If its not, I think we go with what we have and at least see if we can do it. Especially if Matt isnt out long term. If he's done for the season, well you need to bring someone in regardless. If its a few weeks, see what we have. Maybe instead of beating team 40-20, we can beat them 20-10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's sub Brandon Bridge level in terms of reading defenses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No stretcher needed and hes not being carried off. Edited June 6, 2018 by Goalie GCJenks and Mark F 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall our team is way better than it was a few years ago but I'm holding out hope that Nichols isn't out long term as this is a QB driven league. Yeah but when Willy went down we had crap behind him...and a lot of crap around him. Makes no sense to trade or give up assets for a QB that really is only a prospect much like what we have...but I feel has less upside than our 3 currently...we have pieces and system here to be successful if you are smart. Only trade I would make is if we could pry Lulay out of B.C..if it didn't cost too much GCJenks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goalie Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 Our O is built on not turning the ball over so I'm not sure why anyone would want Masoli Mr Dee and wbbfan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Unger Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 Based on what I've been researching on ACL injuries it's hard to say at this point. It seems like if it was torn he would likely not be putting pressure on it and he would lift his knee in the air and hop on one leg with staff supporting him. It doesn't look good but it could be worse. There's a chance its not a tear. A tear would mean a 6 to 7 month recovery time. If its a tear here is what Matt has to look forward to.

Goalie Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 Could always go with Streveler and play a more ball control run heavy short pass O. I mean, IMO, Streveler is tailor made for this O. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's obviously not super serious. The fact he was helped off the field is concerning at this point, though. Hopefully, it's just a tweak and he'll be good to go for the home opener next Thursday.

Only trade I would make is if we could pry Lulay out of B.C..if it didn't cost too much Lulay is a month away from being ready to play, but it doesn't matter as no team is going to trade away their 2nd string QB. Except Tillman might trade his starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin Unger Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 I guess those of us wanting to see Nichols not play on Friday and get a better look at Streveler and Bennett will get their wish Albertabomberguy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unknown Poster Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 isnt this a similar way Matt Dunigan was injured, back-peddling, no contact? It was a blown Achilles, wasnt it? Cant remember if he was stretchered off... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goalie Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 I think its a tweak... They would know if it was serious right away, i dont think it is... Like Joey Joe Joe said... Similar to Trevor Harris... Couple weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Joey Joe Joe said... Similar to Trevor Harris... Couple weeks Im leaning that way. There should have been a loud popping noise had he torn his ACL and they would know right away. But just because they say they are still evaluating doesn't mean they are suspecting a tear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bomberfan85 Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 I was at practise. He was being helped but it looked to me like his walking wasn't too bad. I'm hopeful! Blueandgold, Colin Unger, The Unknown Poster and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
