2021/22 - CFL Offseason - Non-Back-to-Back Grey Cup Champion Thread
Wasn't Reilly playing extremely injured for the first half of the season and he still managed to produce. Reilly would be the absolute last reason I'd point any fingers towards BC Lions issues. They had absolutely no running game and I pity Rourke or whoever steps in and having to deal with the non stop blitz against them if they continue to run that same offense. They will need a guy who is extremely mobile and who can run for his life in at QB.

I don't see the big deal about BC Lions owner having big money.... doesn't every team still need to fit under a salary cap? If you are going to blow the cap why would you waste it on a guy who would assumingly be the #3 receiver on your team after Burnham and Whitehead? Makes no sense either way.

LOL at BC spending all that big money on receiver. Did they not remember how they had zero running game last season and a terrible o-line. Good on Lawler if he gets that money but dear lord as a Lions fan I'd be questioning why they would make a guy the highest paid receiver in the league after signing Whitehead to a monster contract and already having Burnham on a new deal that was a decent discount.

I see Banks going to Montreal or Ottawa before going to BC or the Elks.

What if he was 6'1 and 3/4" then would you not be skeptical?

I wonder if BC makes a play for Harris now?
-
2022 Off Season - Back 2 Back Champs Edition
Any chance that Harris comes back in more of a Demski role in which he has limited carries and spends time at receiver in certain packages? Maybe extends his career a few seasons rather then being the featured back which would be more punishing to his body?

Jeeze I was joking about Jones wanting to bring back Carter.... this is just sad. So they are going to over pay for a locker room cancer rather then recruit someone who could be a long term solution and who would come in a much cheaper price.

I thought Bighill wasn't going to take a low pay day and was going to the open market and didn't set his roots in Winnipeg?

Yes because we can only count the time McGuire played in a terrible rain storm with back ups and have to ignore his pre season time in which he played perfectly fine with back ups in nice weather.

When I watched Strev in action in person in 2018 against Ottawa I more then certainly saw a guy who could be a passer and successful in the CFL. I think the issue in 2019 is that they kind of pigeon holed him into doing way to many cute plays to play off his running ability.

And Bishop was 12 - 1 or whatever that one season he was so while QB is greatly important it doesn't completely translate in why a team is up and above compared to middle of the road. Look how terrible Collaros was in Saskatchewan playing behind a crap o-line and a crap system. Far more intangibles involved then simply a QB makes or breaks how good the O runs. Collaros was a cherry on the top, but also factor in some of the guys were new to our system and in 2021 after having time to develop they blossomed and also raised the bar on how good our O works (see: Bailey/Lawler) Nichols also was completely shot even in 2018 so it's a bit unfair to use him as a level to compare with. 2018/2019 Nichols is so far down in the ability to perform that guys like Masoli and Harris are light years ahead of being able to play QB. Long story short..... Zach is awesome.... if he leaves for whatever reason.... if we were to plug in a Harris/Masoli/Arbuckle/MBT to replace him... our O still would be formidable and those QB's would have the tools to also play at an optimal level.

Signing two receivers does not prevent a team from signing more players. If we sign Lawler and Bailey it doesn't mean we can't afford Bighill....

Harris is better then a Dilfer, a comp to Dilfer would be a guy like Fajardo. Harris can thrive if he isn't relied upon to carry a team on his back. Clearly Zach would be a far better option but if we had to Harris would work.

Chris Streveler Trevor Harris would work.

I could be wrong so correct me if I am... but didn't the Blue offer more money to Zach several years back and he turned them down to stay out East?
