Posted July 15, 201410 yr comment_66567 ... and will be announcing it in 15 minutes. Let the speculation begin.
July 15, 201410 yr comment_66568 Oh boy...I'll say it involved Alex Suber or one of our import OLs, with a DL or OL coming back in return.
July 15, 201410 yr comment_66571 I think it will be someone from our 1 game IR. Suber is most likely. Potentially Woods. Longshot Watson. Toronto has Durie out and Owens had an MRI yesterday, perhaps they are in the market for Watson?
July 15, 201410 yr Author comment_66572 Roster players rarely seem to get traded. I doubt it's roster players going BOTH ways. Could we see Mulumba or Bilukidi get traded?
July 15, 201410 yr comment_66573 Watson or Suber to the Argos for some Canadian OL help? Or maybe we're getting Peach from the Stamps?
July 15, 201410 yr Author comment_66574 I just don't see how Suber holds value. I'll be impressed if Walters gets anything for him, it's rare anyone wants to assume a vet DB's existing contract.
July 15, 201410 yr comment_66575 I just don't see how Suber holds value. I'll be impressed if Walters gets anything for him, it's rare anyone wants to assume a vet DB's existing contract. I'm thinking Suber to Argos because I know Burke really liked him, and he's the Argos DC now.
July 15, 201410 yr Author comment_66576 I just don't see how Suber holds value. I'll be impressed if Walters gets anything for him, it's rare anyone wants to assume a vet DB's existing contract. I'm thinking Suber to Argos because I know Burke really liked him, and he's the Argos DC now. True, but after acquiring Dwight Anderson ... how much room do they really have? I didn't see a big need at DB to begin with for them, unless Drew Willy got a couple of them fired in week 1
July 15, 201410 yr comment_66577 @Darren_Cameron: #Bombers have acquired quarterback Josh Portis from Toronto in exchange for a conditional draft choice.
July 15, 201410 yr Author comment_66580 Hahahaha QB Josh Portis from Toronto for a conditional draft pick.
July 15, 201410 yr comment_66583 Roster players rarely seem to get traded. I doubt it's roster players going BOTH ways. Could we see Mulumba or Bilukidi get traded? Hope it is not either. Hoping to see one or both as Bombers in the next year or two.
July 15, 201410 yr comment_66587 It was a fun 15 minutes of speculation though! Glad they didn't say announcement at noon!
July 15, 201410 yr comment_66588 With all the injuries in the east this year - I suspect Walters has someone boxed into a corner. Either Kent Austin or Jim Popp. Not many of our PR or IR guys have that much value 1 on 1 for a starting (Top 6) OL, particularly a national. However, I strongly suspect a package deal this time Involving 2 bomber players going elsewhere plus some neg. rights in exchange for a quality OL (national or international). Deal is deeper for Walters if its a national OL. My best guess - Watson & Suber plus neg rights to Andy Mulumba for a starting OL (who isn't currently injured). If Mulumba gets himself cut and ends up in the CFL Walters should also make the trade conditional so we get a 2nd rd pick from whoever got Mulumba. Addendum: I take everything back. Totally underwhelming!!! I guess there's major concern about Brohm or Marve handling the reins should Willy go down!

July 15, 201410 yr comment_66593 Or maybe has someone like Brohm or Marve asked for their release to pursue other opportunity?
