There's no way we give up on Willy yet. Sadly, this is likely to be true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fatty Liver Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 (edited) 5 hours ago, Bigblue204 said: trade them nichols for franklin straight up!!! No, but how about trading Willy for Franklin? If the Bombers continue on to a 0-6 start under Willy I'm all for ditching him mid-season while he still has some trade value. Franklin, Masoli, Lulay, Cato...doesn't matter much as it will be a salary dump and a sign that the QB job in Wpg. is once again open for competition. Whether Nichols, Davis or whoever gets the majority of starts after that won't matter much as the goal will be to start fresh with a better QB in 2017.

Ripper Posted June 26, 2016 Report Share Posted June 26, 2016 I'm not here to defend Drew Willy but he isn't calling the plays and that Oline looks about the same as last year. 5 sacks against. Success off and on with Harris, but yet the Offense kept going away from it. Lapo needs to be a lot better calling the plays. Drew clearly blew some throws to open receivers but the crappy performance is only about 1/3 on him IMO. Lapo and Oline own the rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred C Dobbs Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 (edited) On the other hand: Quote Multiple CFL sources say the relationship between defensive end Shawn Lemon and the Saskatchewan has gone sour and the club is actively trying to trade the 27-year-old. Lemon is listed third on the depth chart for Thursday’s season-opener against Toronto and some say he could be scratched from the game day roster. Sources say there is friction between Lemon and the coaching staff led by new vice president of football operations and head coach Chris Jones.

Ya, he sure had us over the barrel Your original offer was massive according to Lawless. Far more than any other draft pick in this class and possibly the biggest one ever, When guys like Vaillancourt were signed for far less, Jones decided his original offer was way too high and retracted it. That led to the shmozzle you guys had over the past two months. Now he signs a contract more in line with what Chungh and Mateas got last year and you are claiming victory for Jones. Still looks like egg on his face from my perspective. Al Bundy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been paid 85k already and no one will trade a thing of value for him and do the Riders a favor. You are stuck with a Sour Lemon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
