Mr. Perfect Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Shrug? You serious? Stamps could easily come back this year and be a top 5 WR. Sure. I could also win 649 this weekend as well. What's your point? He's finished, and has the worst starting QB in the league throwing him the ball. Duron Carter isn't going to be there to bail out that offence anymore. Shrug? You serious? Stamps could easily come back this year and be a top 5 WR. Sure. I could also win 649 this weekend as well.

Do you really need to ask what my point was? I made it! It's that Stamps can still be a very good WR. Yes I do because there's no evidence whatsoever to support that claim. This isn't Fred Stamps from three years ago where he was feared by DB's across the league, and he's going to one of the worst offences in the league - Him going there does not change this.

Goalie Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Ya I think some people see the name Fred Stamps and confuse the current version with the all star version. Noeller and Mr. Perfect 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Stamps is a good guy, its not his fault that nearly every pass went to Bowman. Its not like Stamps had the dropsies or anything. Good move for the Als. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.O.A.B. Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 I'm good with entering neither of those sweepstakes. I think Riders can't have both Green and Dressler. I kinda like Dressler in Blue&Gold. But I agree that's there a cheaper option out there. I really like Ernest Jackson. Chiles would be good too. I'm not really high on Ellingson.

Mr. Perfect Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Ya I think some people see the name Fred Stamps and confuse the current version with the all star version. Stamps going to Montreal is very similar to Simon going to the Riders at the stage of his career he was win. He may make a play now and again, but in terms of being an elite receiver, those days are gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noeller Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Man, if we ever found a way to get Ellingson into Blue and Gold, I sure wouldn't cry about it... Mr. Perfect 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark F Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 what happened to the bomber that is on the seahawks practice squad, forget his name, tall guy, who doesn't seem to be doing much there. do we want him back, if he's available?

Brandon Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 It would be sweet to sign Dressler purely to see how much the Riders would then trash him and make it seem like he's sub par Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stickem Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Dressler would be nice but I like this Ellingson guy as well. Great hands and a very deceptive type of receiver. To my recollection he didn't drop too many and can take the hits. I think we'd forget all about Matthews if we could sign him. Dressler is going to cost someone a lot of dough.

gbill2004 Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Dressler shat the bed last year. I'd have no interest in him if I'm Walters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Blue Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Honestly took me a few seconds to realize that this referred to Fred Stamps and not some sort of sentence error that involved the Stampeders. That tells me what I need to know about Fred Stamps right now as a player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Funny how a guy has a down year and everyone thinks his career is over. We'll see. He led the league in receiving in 2013.... One year ago. Maybe he is done but I wouldn't bet on it. His production may have gone down because Bowman was getting thrown to 10+ times a game... just a thought. iso_55 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebusrankin Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 I'm with Mike, Chiles and Ellington would be cheaper and likely more benefical to us. Denmark/Moore/Chiles/Kolhert/JFG would be a nice corps. You think having less talented players is better? I think having a younger player with upside is better. Particularly if the money saved can be used in another area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Dee Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Good for Stamps..he deserves to be #1 somewhere, and in Montreal looks like he will be. He wouldn't be here, but he sure as hell would have been a better option than Romby. I doubt we'll first look to receivers in FA, but as a last second check-out purchase give me an E. Jackson or a Greg Ellingson please. Makes you wonder why Desjardins wouldn't have done that and kept his star defender. Still shaking my head over that one.

His production may have gone down because Bowman was getting thrown to 10+ times a game... just a thought. Agreed. I don't think he'll put up 1300-1400 like he did in his prime, but I won't be shocked if he flirts with a 1k season. StevetheClub 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweep the leg Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Man, if we ever found a way to get Ellingson into Blue and Gold, I sure wouldn't cry about it... Nor would I. IMO he'll be a better value than the big names based on a $ / receiving yards basis. BBlink 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iso_55 Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Stamps still has some gas in the tank. Like someone said, the Esks decided that every third pass this year would be thrown to Adarius Bowman instead of spreading it out more among the other receivers so it's not Fred Stamps fault. He could be a thousand yard receiver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueandgold Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Dressler shat the bed last year. I'd have no interest in him if I'm Walters. Yes he did, but Dressler is still a top receiver in this league. I'd still take him over Moore or Denmark myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iso_55 Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Duressler is still a great receiver. He came back after his NFL stint & then Durant got hurt. You bet I'd sign him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBURGESS Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Stamps was a great receiver who had a bad year. I expect him to bounce back in Montreal and hit the 1000 yard mark again assuming he doesn't get injured. Edmonton wasn't using him so getting a younger, cheaper receiver in return is a good deal for them. I'd call this one a win win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HardCoreBlue Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 This reeks of bracing for the loss of SJ Green.... I wonder if the Bombers will be in the SJ Green sweepstakes comes Feb.... or the Dressler swwepstakes. Treat free agency like the way some organizations treat the draft. Try to acquire the best player available and then decide what to do with that person (keep or trade away). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
