But for the right $ it's not bad I guess. I don't think we need him though. Bombers need a game breaking WR, or one with the potential to grow into that (Ryhmes type). Roosevelt would be a decent vet add but I don't see where he fits in the O. Unless the team doesn't want to move forward with Lawler. I'm happy the Riders are ditching him, as he lit the bombers up on 2nd down conversions often. Edited February 7, 20205 yr by Bigblue204

Roosevelt is the guy you add in week 10, when your top WR goes down and you're not certain your trust the back up. At this point, I agree, we don't need him.

He’s slow, often injured and will still demand decent coin, id rather role with what we have and trust our scouting if that was the case.

An experienced backup QB is needed to mitigate the risk and we need him for the entire training camp so he can learn our offence. Most of us have seen it, yet our panties, surprisingly, remain completely unknotted.

(unless he is going to be the #1, which would surprise the hell out of basically everyone) Roosevelt won't take the place of (#1 spot), or Demski/ Wolly (because of passports). That leaves out Lawler/Bailey etc. Where do you think Roosevelt would fit? Edited February 7, 20205 yr by Bigblue204
February 7, 20205 yr comment_460301 Now way we bring in Roosevalt...for what purpose?..32 yr old won't displace our younger guys, and if we want vet presence then you retain Adams, who is better, younger and knows the system...prob can get him on a sms friendly deal too The more I look at it though I see us going after Rhymes, at a lesser price tag then a Posey/Walker/Daniels if we choose to move on from Adams and use that saved money towards Willie and Nevis. Though we could also re-up Adams and grab Rhymes too and let him..Bailey and Lawler battle it out for the 2 other import spots. I can honestly see Sask rolling into 2020 without Evans, Roosevalt, Arceneaux and Watson from their starting group from last year...thats a lot of turn over for a team and a recipe for disaster, especially one with a more or less unproven QB...cause last year isn't proof of anything
February 7, 20205 yr comment_460306 I love Matty, but TO social media is making it look like he was bombing throws all over the field. They are going to show the splash plays , of course, but I don't think their fans should be expecting that kind of thing
February 7, 20205 yr comment_460307 Farhan Lalji @FarhanLaljiTSN Nichols deal is 350k in hard money. Up to 560k with incentives. He made 450k with #Bombers last season. Clearly he is being paid as #Argos starter. @CFLonTSN @TSN_Sports

February 7, 20205 yr comment_460315 so basically the AROS are on the hook for close to 3/4 million in QB monies...can't see them gong to crazy for Willie...and really screw their smsin doing so being about 1 million into 3 players...that be pretty dumb considering they have holes elsewhere yet still needing to be addressed

They will find out real quick that there isnt a DE in the world who could make a defense all by himself. Cause they wont be able to pay anyone else on that D.
February 7, 20205 yr comment_460337 i really don't understand the thinking that if the Argos give Willie 300k, they won't be able to pay anyone else. It probably has the affect of limiting them from signing ONE extra big ticket guy. If you can sign Willie at 300k and a rookie at league minimum instead of two guys at 180k, that's about the extent of the impact it has. I'd pay Willie. He's worth it.

I don't think it makes sense for our team to pay him like that, but he certainly deserves it from someone.
February 7, 20205 yr comment_460346 300k for Willie is worth every penny, just for the fact you dont have to play him twice a year.

Or they plan to exceed the cap and pay the penalty at the end of the season.

They still need to spend some coin on receivers I would think. Pretty bare cupboard.

Willie has had success with other very talented linemen. Every team hes been on he hasnt been the only "star". Willis in Edm. Hugh in ssk. Jeffcoat in wpg. And that's just the DEs, nevermind Lbs, and DT. Who does TO have? They can pay him and have a rookie. But they wont have a good Defence.
