rebusrankin Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 As others have said, Willy has actually thrown more passes than Reiley had before last year. I like his potential and would take a similer season from him in 2014. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPuDS Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Why would we even consider this option tho, i mean really? We just said how we wouldnt mortgage the future (willy now id assume) for results now.. it was probably willy OR glenn.. unless glenn is cut outright or landed fer like a 4th rounder, i dont expect to see him here now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuranBoldenRules Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 I'd trade Akeem Foster for Glenn... Better make that deal fast. Foster is a free agent in 5 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueandgold Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Ottawa is already set with Burris & DeMarco, trading Glenn for Willy would make zero sense for both us and them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Duper Negatron Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Willy AND Glenn would be ideal, but I actually think Max Hall would be a reasonably reliable backup. Blue-urns 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotoriousBIG Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Ottawa is already set with Burris & DeMarco, trading Glenn for Willy would make zero sense for both us and them. They'll trade us Glenn for a pick plus possibly a NI. Do we even have a NI left? Sofa Muamba? Actually, I would do Glenn for Sofa right now.

TBURGESS Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Good trade. Jade, I've only played 2 good games in my 3 year career, for Willy who will take the next big step in his career to starting QB. Even if Willy isn't any better than Hall or Goltz, and I believe he is better, it's still a good deal for us. Blue-urns and iso_55 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Why are people talking about Glenn for Willy, it's not happening. Now is Willy going to be announced as our starter or will Hall and him battle it out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robynjt Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 That's why I asked if anyone had any idea what he'd be making. In a perfect world, I wish we'd have a more experienced QB but our options are clearly limited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJBOMBERFAN Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 All is good in the universe. Danny Mac got his guy! There will be no more QB additions, only OL improvements with the money they saved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotoriousBIG Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 They will quickly anoint Willy as The Man, The Starter, and The Future, so when HAM dangles Glenn we won't appear needy. Make no mistake, we need an experienced pivot behind that cheese cloth O Line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbill2004 Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Michael Pierce says this about him (in 2009 mind you) http://walterfootball.com/scoutingreport2009dwilly.php Willy is an outstanding athlete and has great quickness and burst. He has the ability to avoid the rush get outside the pocket and make plays with his feet as well as his arm. Willy's agility and coordination is displayed on every drop back, he has almost impeccable footwork and that allows him to be more mobile as well as accurate in delivering the ball. Willy is a competitive player and that shows in the big games. He comes up huge in big games and important situations. Willy's production has been very good especially over the past 2 years. He is a consistent player in all areas; his delivery mechanics, footwork, and production have all been consistent. He is a strong team player and is the leader of the Bulls, he commands the huddle and is the go to guy on offense. Willy is a very intelligent player. His instincts and reactions help him to avoid the pass rush and deliver accurate passes. He maintains concentration throughout the game and is outstanding at reading the defense. Willy does a good job of adjusting the offense to the defense and rarely makes mistakes. Willy has exceptional size for the QB position. He has enough height to help him scan the defense over the tall linemen of the NFL. He has been a durable player and has very good arm strength although it is not going to kill you on deep balls. Willy stands tall in the pocket and has the strength to deliver while taking a hit. Willy's strengths are his calmness and intelligence. He understands the position very well and does a great job of reading the defense. Willy has outstanding mechanics and footwork which allows him to be very accurate with most throws he makes. Willy can be a little stiff at times. He can sometimes stand and hold the ball too long which will cause him to be sacked or give the defense time to react to his eyes. Willy can be indecisive as well and in the NFL that can lead to big turnovers. Willy comes from a humble conference and team that is always trying to prove itself and I think that bodes well for his development and coachability. His ability to stand tall and poise in the pocket helps him to deliver strikes to his receivers. Willy is a relaxed QB and I have not seen him get too rattled he stays calm under duress and uses his feet to buy him time. His consistency at recognize the rush needs to be improved on, he is very good at seeing it but at times he holds the ball too long and gets lead feet in the pocket. I believe Willy has tremendous potential and could be a legitimate QB in the NFL. Mr. Perfect and Blue-urns 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iso_55 Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 So Saskabush. Rider fans are acting like you gave them Ben Cahoon and are worried he's an FA soon. Jade Etienne ? un ******* believable. It took two pages of their thread before they realized Etienne is a pending FA. It`s amazing how some people's opinion of a player changes when he (potentially) puts on their jersey. My opinion of Jade Etienne hasn't changed just because he's now become a Rider for 5 more days at least. I didn't think much of him as a Bomber in the first place as most of you know. I would have as a third round pick but not a first. Twenty some passes caught in 3 years? Saskatchewan can have him. But as an asset he finally became valuable enough to trade for Willy. So, Etienne became useful finally for something. Tells me that Walters wasn't going to re-sign him. Or he knew he wanted to go to the Riders.

Captain Blue Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 I'd actually avoid trading for Glenn now. We have Willy and I think we do everything we can to surround him with talent. Free agency, the draft, we want to give Willy the best chance to succeed. I don't want to give up an asset for Glenn then plunk Willy on the bench. I'd consider Glenn a target for our backup spot, if Ottawa wants us to toss them a late rounder or something inconsequential.

Mr. Perfect Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Wow, is all I can say, Walters is impossible to read. And this is a very good thing. The other day I made the analogy of Walters being in a poker game. Now you see why. He handled things beautifully.
