Wild Sears try out with Vikings

Featured Replies

Oh, fecal matter.

Great news about a couple of quality guys. Best of luck!!

And speaking of quality guys, former Bomber Moton Hopkins is mentioned as having a try-out too.

Uh oh. Not good. Wild gone = more Kuale.

Wild.... Too small

Sears....too old

Indeed.  I'd hate to lose them but wish them all the best.

Heck, can't anyone here be resentful and spite-filled about this?

I think Banks would be pissed about it. 

 

"Those clowns get a chance, and I didn't." -"I hope they don't win a spot."

Wish nothing but the best of luck fulfilling a dream and making a ton of bank for a few solid guys and great ball players. It's all you can do...

Uh oh. Not good. Wild gone = more Kuale.

I can't imagine any scenario where Kuale isn't released this off season.

I can't imagine any scenario where Kuale isn't released this afternoon

 

Fixed that for you.

Is this real?

No. 

Lots about Wild to like but he's too small to play MLB every play and with both the other LB spots trending into coverage jobs I'm not sure he's actually as valuable as we feel he is.

Sears, meanwhile, is hurt a lot. I personally don't view these guys as top end free agents who NEED to be signed.

Not to bash them because I do like both players I just don't think they are among the best defenders in the league or anything.

Calling bullshit on Wild being too small to play MLB every play. He may be smaller than the the prototype but the guy is just a damned good tackler and he is a guy who you notice when he's not in the lineup. He gets all over the field and is always involved in the play. This team needs more guys like that not less. 

 

Sears is hurt a lot and it is a concern, but when he's in the lineup he's a star. A flat out playmaker.

Not at all comparing them as players, but the "negative" talk around Wild is errily reminiscent of Wickman....

I consider Wild to be a must sign if he doesn't make the NFL.  Sears, not so much.  Hurt too often and takes too many undisciplined penalties for my liking.

Wild a must sign... If he doesn't get signed by an NFL team. 

142 tackles over 2 years…minus a few games

 

Like this little gem of a tackle against Calgary…..appreciated by O'Shea…and many others.

And we don't need to sign him? - Wrong.

 

We're a better team with Wild in the lineup….no doubt about it.

 

 

 

Wild would be a big loss. Sears? I don't know, i like him but his injury issues are a concern for sure.. plus thought don unumba looked pretty good at the LB spot when he got his chance to play too, actually reminded me a bit of a younger possibly less injury prone sears.

I'm inclined to agree with you. I can't help but look at him and think he is too small, but he makes plays period. He is a notable absence on your defence when he isn't playing, that in itself makes him a priority resign IMO. Look at it this way, I'd be happy if we took a run at signing him if he becomes available.

Sears & Wild are both good players and I'd like to have them both back, but WIld is much more valuable to our team than Sears is.

Sears caused more turnovers than anyone else on our defense to go along with a bunch of tackles for losses, and missed a bunch of games, many being O'Shea's choice to dress Unamba to only chase kicks while leaving guys like Sears and Markett in street clothes.

 

Sears is an elite CFL defender.  He'll be playing somewhere next season, wouldn't be surprised if he flees Winnipeg.
