Matt Nichols recently offered to Bombers

As per Penton's article in the Winnipeg Sun today:

 

Teams were already trying to take advantage of Winnipeg's desperate quarterback situation before Burris left them at the altar. The Edmonton Eskimos, according to two CFL sources, recently offered Matt Nichols to the Bombers for a high draft pick. It was quickly rebuffed.

  • Hall really isn't that bad, he definitely appeals to me as a backup.

  • When Hall was put in, he showed he was learning the system, was reading the defence well and usually put the ball in the right read. He was progressing nicely and seems to show an aptitude for the Ca

    I love Nichols and would be happy to have him here, just not for a high pick.

Hall and Willy battling for spots 1 and 2 wouldn't be the worst situation.

It's much better then last year when they gave Buck the keys and then dumped it on Goltz when Buck was hurt.

Would rather it be Glenn and Willy, but Willy and Hall would be alright in my books.

Geez, plagiarize me why don't you.

If it were up to me giving a second round pick to a team for a QB, I'd be giving it to Ottawa for Glenn, not to Edmonton for Nichols.  Nichols is just not worth a second round.

 

It's moot anyways because we don't have a second round pick.

I know, people have stated that enough times around here it's burned into my brain.  My comment was more of a "if we're going to give something to someone for a QB, I'd rather have Glenn".

But we don't have our second rounder anymore

I hate you.

Glenn and Willy please, Hall is NFG.

 

Drew Tate will be our starter

Do you just pull information like this out of your butt?  How do you even come to this conclusion?  They just lost Glenn, why do you think they'd give us Tate?

 

Just a hunch.

This. Factor in that he'll be in an actual CFL offence right out of training camp is sure to help as well as both him and Marcel were really in no win situations last year.

Is this the same hunch where you said Khari was going to come here to be our next OC?

The way I figure, if they're going to offer up that 2nd overall  for a QB, Tate is the only reasonably-available one that I could live with. Still seems like an awfully high price to pay tho...

Injury prone Tate? No thanks. I'd take Glenn 1000x over before I drank moonshine and considered Tate.

Tate would be my guy as well but I don't think we would need to give up our 1st rounder.  Quite frankly I wouldn't give up our #1 for anyone less than Ricky Ray or Travis Lulay.  ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)  

Tate would be my guy as well. 

No spank you.  No spank you very much.

 

Glenn all the way.

Injury history aside (though obviously it is part of the equation when considering trades) Tate is much more of a ruthless and cerebral QB than Glenn. He'll have his foot on a team's throat and keep pressing down harder. His attitude rubs some people the wrong way. Personally, I love it when a QB is animated. You see it presently with Tom Brady, and you use to see it in the past with Dunigan all the time during his playing days.

Either way, I can't see Calgary releasing Tate yet.  Not this year anyway.

Agreed unfortunately. I'd love to have Drew Tate here, but Drew Willy is a nice consolation prize.

 

Serious. Seen lots of good, bad and ugly from Hall but if there was a game where NIchols demonstrated clear superiority I did not see that game.

Would have been nice to find full games.

 

because he plays for a different team. Bomber fans do this all the time. Everyone here is useless anyone who has shown any remote spark on another team is automatically better. 

By this logic we should just stick with Hall, Goltz and Brown for 2014 and see how that goes.  :rolleyes:

 

Smoklng hot wife and mum would be a good reason to keep him around.

Ask yourself...

 

What does just a hunch rhyme with?

Okay, now that Willy is on board, if we can also sign Nichols, we ought to be in good shape. Let them and Hall fight it out for the starting position.

We'd have to trade for Nichols, as he just re-upped with Edmonton in December.

Lunch?  I like lunch.

...ok I give up.

You were close…just a hunch….out to lunch

Funny feeling, call it a hunch.. Willy will be our #1 with hall and goltz battling it out for #2 (which hall wins) and McManus will have us a 3rd stringer who will be the next Reilly/Collaros/Willy..

I really think McManus will be the guy that landa us back into a good QB pipeline..
