Is this ever a guy we should take a run at? I really like Pokey as a receiver but not sure he's a 1A Superstar guy... Would you ever take a run at Hatcher as your #1 and then have Pokey and Demski as 2/3?

 

 

I don't see Maier surplanting Brown. Maier has been inconsistent at best as a starter.

The issue is whether Dru can stay healthy for enough games to be a legitimate option l.

Meh almost every one of those teams would be screwed if their starting quarterback went down. Don’t see how B.C should be ranked number 4 other than Rourke.

We're deservedly ranked last, that's all I care about.

rest of that list is trash but i can’t argue with out spot

Tre Ford is young enough to take a flyer on... is he a free agent or did he retire?

I'd take Dru over Collaros at that price, and it wouldn't be a hard decision.

You'd take this guy if the price is right in your mind.

Not moving on from collaros while we had brown was an error by this team.

Then, instead of Collaros getting pulped because of a crappy OC and O-line, we would have had Brown getting pulped, but at a cheaper price. Not sure that would have accomplished much.

The way Brown was, he'd have never played an yway. He had large gaps between being performing on the field & IR. I just got the impression Brown may have been able to come back come back but didn't seem to want to. I question his toughness & leadership as he certainly doesn't seem to be another Matt Dunigan or Jeff Garcia.

So, if T Burg wants to pay a guy who's injured more than he plays then how are we saving money? We'd have been paying Brown to sit & do nothing on the 6 game Injury List multiple times.

I think Dinwiddie felt the same & went out & got a qb he feels he can work with in Maier to push Brown. Look what Dinwiddie did with Arbuckle in Toronto last year. Two years ago, it looked like his career was over. If he does the same thing with Maier then Brown is gone. Ottwa is (probably) spending more money on their two qbs than we spend on the 3 or 4 we have now as both in Ottawa are veterans. Other than Zach, our qb room have backups with limited experience or none at all.

This coming season my man ZC is going to stay healthy, light it up, lead us to Grey Cup victory and retire on top.

At the very least it feels good writing this. Off season hope.
