September 1, 20159 yr comment_147406 Ugh. Gross. Do your ******* job Walters and find a guy who can play, there's only about a million runningbacks in the states looking for work.
September 1, 20159 yr Author comment_147408 ^^ yeah, basically. Stuff like this makes me cringe. Walters needs to rely on fresh faces a bit more often. Chevon Walker was absolutely awful in Ottawa.
September 1, 20159 yr comment_147411 People complained about Mack never signing FAs or retreads, and Walters likely does it too much, relying less on recruiting than Mack. Need something more in the middle...
September 1, 20159 yr comment_147412 I've been trying to stay optimistic all season... with every going on this past week... I'm starting to lose it...
September 1, 20159 yr comment_147414 This is Marcel living in the past, I said it last season too, the team had Marcel stink all over it, makes you wonder who is really calling the shots.
September 1, 20159 yr Author comment_147416 People complained about Mack never signing FAs or retreads, and Walters likely does it too much, relying less on recruiting than Mack. Need something more in the middle... No kidding. I like when we go out and see Walters making moves Mack would've never made like Jasper Simmons or Stanley Bryant but holy **** do we really need to sign every Chevon Walker and Dom Picard along the way?
September 1, 20159 yr comment_147419 They should have sign Will Ford or Chris Garrett instead.... and I will be happy with it.
September 1, 20159 yr comment_147420 Not a huge fan of this move but I do appreciate that we are not standing pat with the current roster.
September 1, 20159 yr Author comment_147423 They should have sign Will Ford or Chris Garrett instead.... and I will be happy with it. No, truthfully they should have signed an actual brand new talent instead. Even though some of them have worked out, this regime has given meaningful carries to a grand total of ONE running back that wasn't on his second or third look at the CFL. Paris Cotton couldn't even make Hamilton, Nic Grigsby was in Toronto (or BC I believe) for a bit of a training camp, then we were going to trot out Tyler Thomas and now Chevon Walker? Cam Marshall seems to be the only entirely fresh face. It's getting old.
September 1, 20159 yr comment_147428 At least they recognize they are not getting the production out of the RB position that they should however, I too don't see Chevy as the answer to that problem.
September 1, 20159 yr comment_147429 It's bizarre since rbs are dime a dozen... There has to be a tonne of NFL cuts they could bring in?
September 1, 20159 yr comment_147432 I didn't know Cotton was in Hamilton. Interesting. So it's not just QB's being released from other teams we're bringing in, it's cuts from other teams. No wonder we are what we are lol. Though I don't mind Walker as much as others as he has proven he can play in this league (prior to his injuries anyway) so lets see what he does here. One thing for sure, he won't be worse that what we already have, including one Paris Cotton who wasn't doing much prior to breaking arm save one good game.
September 1, 20159 yr comment_147433 I'm not totally against this, as long as we use his skills properly. Knowing MB though, I won't be surprised when we watch him on 2nd and 4, take a hand off from shotgun.

September 1, 20159 yr comment_147439 I'm not a huge fan of this, but if we're planning on going with Thunder & Lightning still, we need a lightning with Cotton out, so Walker is okay I guess.
September 1, 20159 yr comment_147442 What if Walker is that unexpected add that teams sometimes use to get over the hump and turn their season around like Butch Goring was to the 1980 NY Islanders? Nah ...
