Posted January 24, 201411 yr comment_35726 I've been reading a few scouting reports on Drew Willy and I think he might be as good, or slightly better option than Collaros. Here's one of the scouting reports: http://walterfootball.com/scoutingreport2009dwilly.php. Either way, as long as the Bombers don't completely screw things up, we will end up with at least one very good QB.
January 24, 201411 yr comment_35732 I'd love to see both here. THAT would tell me the Bombers are serious. It's not likely to happen for sure, but even competing against each other this is still the best option for them IMO.
January 24, 201411 yr comment_35733 Buck had much-needed shoulder surgery so he could be rejuvenated next season. Might look good as the Bombers starter. Lots of experience there.

January 24, 201411 yr comment_35736 Considering the post history of TUP, I'm not so sure he was kidding.
January 24, 201411 yr comment_35738 Is he getting laser eye surgery too so he can finally read a defence?
January 24, 201411 yr comment_35740 Is he getting laser eye surgery too so he can finally read a defence? LOL...Kels, you have won the internet today for that comment.
January 24, 201411 yr comment_35743 Definitely joking. Not so sure. Unknown Poster is probably the staunchest Burke apologist and Pierce fan on the board. He's either serious, or doing some deep water trolling.
January 24, 201411 yr comment_35745 Buck had much-needed shoulder surgery so he could be rejuvenated next season. Might look good as the Bombers starter. Lots of experience there. Tim Burke??? Is that you?
January 24, 201411 yr comment_35747 Drew Willy would be a very, very good free agent signing for the Bombers.
January 24, 201411 yr comment_35748 I was joking. Also Im not a Burke apologist. I just realise he isnt the devil incarnate sent to earth to maliciously destroy the Bombers. He's a human being. The personal insults towards him months later became ridiculous. Im not the only one who found this place getting far too negative. Mike, you used to be a huge Buck fan. I'm a Buck fan but I supported going in a different direction last season.
January 24, 201411 yr comment_35749 Definitely joking. Not so sure. Unknown Poster is probably the staunchest Burke apologist and Pierce fan on the board. He's either serious, or doing some deep water trolling. No definitely a troll, tries to be funny with it but falls short in that regard. Real pity it's so obvious cause with some more refining could be a beauty.
January 24, 201411 yr comment_35761 I've said it before, I'll say it again: I really hope somehow Willy is with us next year. I have nothing against Collaros, I think he is serviceable. That being said he has flaws in his game that I don't see in Willy. Willy provides the complete package you want in a passer.

That being said he has flaws in his game that I don't see in Willy. Willy provides the complete package you want in a passer. Yes and that is why he isn't playing in the NFL?
January 24, 201411 yr comment_35776 Why would we need Buck back, don't we already have Goltz ? Wasn't Goltz supposed to be the future and better than Buck ? Or why not try and bring back Elliott, because you know that guy was amazing. Willy looks like a decent QB, wouldn't even call him a prospect anymore, he's been playing pro football for awhile, IMO Collaros has the higher ceiling, but Willy is probably the more prepared/developed to start now.
January 24, 201411 yr comment_35778 Buck had much-needed shoulder surgery so he could be rejuvenated next season. Might look good as the Bombers starter. Lots of experience there. That ship has thankfully sailed....

January 24, 201411 yr comment_35788 I'd take with Wiley or Collaros. Heck I'd also take Vince Howard, Matt Saracen and Paul Crewe.
January 25, 201411 yr comment_35793 No! We absolutely cannot sign him. Then we'd be looking at someone else's Willy all year. Ick. Free Willy!
January 25, 201411 yr comment_35794 Collaros seems like he's made for the CFL, not that I have anything against Willy but frankly he'd be a consolation prize.
January 25, 201411 yr comment_35798 I'd take with Wiley or Collaros. Heck I'd also take Vince Howard, Matt Saracen and Paul Crewe. Who's that, Platinum Blonde?
January 25, 201411 yr comment_35801 I've said it before, I'll say it again: I really hope somehow Willy is with us next year. I have nothing against Collaros, I think he is serviceable. That being said he has flaws in his game that I don't see in Willy. Willy provides the complete package you want in a passer. Yes and that is why he isn't playing in the NFL? How is that relevant? Ray gives you the complete package as a QB (Reading a defense, accuracy, knowing what passes need touch, footwork, mechanics, etc) but is not in the NFL.
January 25, 201411 yr Author comment_35802 Ed Tait's article in today's Free Press confirms the Bombers are also interested in Willy, but Collaros is priority number one.
January 25, 201411 yr comment_35806 Drew Willy is a good prospect and all, but I highly doubt he would be successful here. Collaros has a much better chance of success behind our O-line IMO.
