#Argos announce they have released QB @ZCollaros7 #CFL

 

 

Not sure if it is to sign a NFL deal or get a head start on where he wants to go.

Penton just said Collaros turned down $200k per season to be the Argos backup next season.

 

any guesses on what Winnipeg has offered?  I'm guessing heavily incentive based. 

 

Still any truth to the "Bombers would prefer Burris, according to sources"? 

Drew Edwards just reported the Ticats have reached an agreement with him.

Ticats sign Zach Collaros #bombers #cfl

 

Ah, ****.

Ticats win. They signed Collaros.

Sigh...poor Dave...

I'm not even going to pretend I can like this.

 

All I will say is that it must suck for Kyle Walters knowing that he needs to rebuild such a garbage dump and he has to deal with our reputation making it difficult to bring guys in.

 

Unless he actually just didn't go all out for Collaros. In which case, **** right off.

Ah, not surprised.  Grey Cup contender versus last place... 

I've never wanted somebody to fail (in the CFL) more than I do Collaros right now.

Well the heat is on Danny Mac now to find a guy that can be the guy in a couple years .......... Brock Jensen

We'll be fine folks. Calm your titties.

Please if there is a god no burris. Drew Willy please and thanks. 

I just don't understand the logic.

 

Isn't it ironic that we got beat out for Collaros by the team that needed him because the guy working for us couldn't do the job he needs to do for us, for them?

 

as in ... Collaros went to Hamilton because Danny Mac didn't find a prospect worth considering as a starter. And now we're going to count on him to find us a prospect worth considering as a starter.

Salt, meet wound. Thanks Mike.

Although it would be great if Burris is the one that walks into Regina on Labour Day breaks the streak.

95% chance it's Burris now...

What a story that would be. What would 17 do then?

The Bombers better sign Willy first then Burris. If they sign Burris first I think there is more of a risk on him signing elsewhere.

it's really not going to matter and FWIW, I don't think we get Willy.

How come?

Yikes this really sucks.  Really thought we would land him.  Wonder if Toronto regrets not dealing his rights for a late pick now that he's right next door.

 

We really need to get Willy in free agency.

How come?

 

Not suggesting every QB thinks the same, but we didn't lose out on Collaros from a lack of effort or lack of ability to offer a better role than other teams. We lost out on Collaros because our reputation as a franchise is in the shitter. I can't say I blame Collaros, I wouldn't have come here either if I was him. And I wouldn't come here if I was Drew Willy.

 

I'd take the safe bet and follow Khari to BC.

 

NOOOO!...NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!

 

DAMNIT!

 

Well I sure as hell hope this was the right move and it wasn't just because we were being a bunch of cheap bastards.

Lawless just tweeted that Barker wanted our #2 overall pick for his rights.

Not even going to comment on how stupid he is because of bitterness, I'm just going to say that if that's what he wanted, that's an absolute mishandling of the situation.
