Dascow Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 That's bad news for the Bombers play-off hopes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigg jay Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 Only a 5th round pick being sent to Saskatchewan for Glenn. I'm surprised the price is that low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBURGESS Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 Good trade for both teams. The Als needed a QB to have any playoff hopes and didn't give much up. Glenn wasn't in the Riders plans for next year and didn't have a contract anyway. DR. CFL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noeller Posted October 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 There's no guarantees of Glenn's effectiveness. That seems a fair price, IMO. Will be interesting to see how that game goes this weekend... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbill2004 Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 I was afraid of this. This really hurts the Bombers playoff chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.O.A.B. Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 You can chalk Als win against the Riders now. Can Glenn win against Ham, Tor & Edm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBURGESS Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 Next weekend and the last game against Regina are more important than this weekend. Glenn will only get one or two practices before this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracker Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 Glenn may be a good fit for the Alouettes- he will have a decent O-line, good receivers and consistent if not great coaching. Glenn has been the target of some unfair criticism's and if not for a broken arm, he would have had a Grey Cup ring. He has kept his bitching to a minimum even when shuttled around through no fault of his own. He has the charisma of a shovel but he is fundamentally sound. DR.

kelownabomberfan Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 This is so exciting... Glenn just needs Edmonton to complete the CFL bingo card... has it ever been done? Yeah I don't think so. I really hope that the Esks sign him next year, that would be amazing. Suitcase Glenn. Hired gun, hired by all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WBBFanWest Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 This is good news for us and for any team that plays the Als for the rest of the season. All they have to do is stay within a touchdown of Montreal by the 4th quarter and then let the Glenn "I can deal with pressure just fine, thank you very much" magic go to work.

M.O.A.B. Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 Winnipeg Blue BombersRecord: 5-10 2016 Draft Picks: 2nd, SSK 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th. (Forfeited 1st pick in supplemental draft) The Bombers are 5-10 with very thin playoff hopes. Getting in as third seed in the West earns a team the prize of going into either Calgary or Edmonton to try to win on the road against one of the CFL’s best teams. The Bombers should be sellers, with a goal of improving their Canadian talent or adding draft picks. But the franchise desperately needs to show it’s improving and getting into the postseason will help sell hope and season tickets for next year. The Bombers seem to be a C-plus or a B around the board. They’re okay at a lot of things but not excellent at anything. They could use help everywhere. The most obvious needs, however, are a consistent threat in the backfield and an accomplished receiver. Matt Nichols has proven capable in the absence of starting quarterback Drew Willy but the Bombers offence lacks consistency in both the run game and in the pass catching department. http://www.tsn.ca/who-could-use-kevin-glenn-at-the-cfl-trade-deadline-1.376235 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueandgold Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 We got a better Quarterback in Nichols for cheaper. I'm not scared of one win Kevin Glenn who has no interest in embarrassing himself in another playoff game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Dee Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 It was pretty obvious that Montreal had to make a move such as this, but Sask. made a huge blunder if that's all they got for a QB who is capable of starting almost right away, and giving the Alouettes a better chance to win a game or two. They had Montreal over a barrel on this one, and ran a fade route instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
