August 29, 201311 yr comment_18444 Discuss away as the CFLPA has declared him a Free Agent based on a ruling that was handed down by the Ontario court today so you can just walk away from contracts? Might as well save the paper of writing anything down and just do every player deal via verbal commitment and handshake.
August 29, 201311 yr comment_18447 Calgary should sign him to replace Nik Lewis. Yeah. We don't need him....
August 29, 201311 yr comment_18449 if he's a FA now, he's agent should be calling NFL teams now. although, it doesnt stop us from calling him/his agent also.
August 29, 201311 yr comment_18450 Calgary should sign him to replace Nik Lewis. Yeah. We don't need him.... One would have to assume that he would have no interest in coming here. Winnipeg isn't a place for people with options sadly enough.

Winnipeg isn't a place for people with options sadly enough. I honestly think he'd have a lot of interest in coming here.
August 29, 201311 yr comment_18457 Are you guys kidding? He will be signing in the NFL. The whole point of getting out of the contract was to get to the NFL, not because he hated the Ticats.
August 29, 201311 yr comment_18458 Really tough to get on with a team right now. With cuts coming up on Saturday will be tough to get on a practice squad down there with no training camp or OTA's under his belt.
August 29, 201311 yr comment_18459 Are you guys kidding? He will be signing in the NFL. The whole point of getting out of the contract was to get to the NFL, not because he hated the Ticats. I doubt it's guaranteed now. Not this year at least.
August 29, 201311 yr comment_18461 He'd be a fool to risk injury for half a CFL season. He wouldn't have taken things this far if he didn't have a solid notion that he could find work there. Either he signs in the NFL for this upcoming season, or he doesn't play football at all this year IMO.
August 29, 201311 yr comment_18463 Calgary should sign him to replace Nik Lewis. Yeah. We don't need him.... One would have to assume that he would have no interest in coming here. Winnipeg isn't a place for people with options sadly enough. Winnipeg does not have a bonafide #1 CFL receiver. Matthews was last year, but I'd argue this year, we have no identity or guys worthy of double coverage. If I'm Chris Williams, that represents opportunity.

Matthews was last year, but I'd argue this year, we have no identity or guys worthy of double coverage. If I'm Chris Williams, that represents opportunity. I would like to contend that point. We don't even have guys worthy of single coverage.

If I'm Chris Williams, that represents opportunity. Did I say "no #1 receiver?" I meant no #1 receiver, AND no #1 kick returner.

I'd say Woods is making a stronger case for himself every time he touches the ball, but I see your point.

Winnipeg isn't a place for people with options sadly enough. I honestly think he'd have a lot of interest in coming here. Unfortunately I don't think the Bombers would be interested after just adding two receivers

Even Mack would sign him given the opportunity, actually.
August 29, 201311 yr comment_18476 Are you guys kidding? He will be signing in the NFL. The whole point of getting out of the contract was to get to the NFL, not because he hated the Ticats. I doubt it's guaranteed now. Not this year at least. I doubt it's ever guaranteed. The guy fumbles way too much.
August 29, 201311 yr comment_18477 MB Smith Kelly McKnight Peach.........Why stop there? Bring on Williams!
August 29, 201311 yr comment_18478 I honestly think he'd have a lot of interest in coming here. Unfortunately I don't think the Bombers would be interested after just adding two receivers You don't think the Bombers would have interest in adding a CFL all-star?? Because we signed a CFL cast-off and an NFL cast-off? Don't get me wrong, MSW and Kelly could definitely succeed here, but your reasoning is so flawed it is painful. Winnipeg is and should be a testing ground for the rest of the season. As many posters have said, throw a bunch of **** at the wall and see what sticks. You're saying we wouldn't want to bring Chris Williams in; because we've got 2 new receivers we haven't assessed yet, and we are satisfied with Pierce and Denmark?

Even Mack would sign him given the opportunity, actually. No, Mack would say that he's not interested. That he doesn't believe other team's free agents are worth pursuing because we'd overpay for their true value & that he's happy with the players he's got.
August 29, 201311 yr comment_18480 I wouldn't want WIlliams here because of this crap he's pulled with his contract. I don't care how talented he is if you don't honour your contract to hell with you.
August 29, 201311 yr comment_18490 Paul Wiecek @PaulWiecek 2m Tim Burke says he'd be interested in Chris Williams, but doubts Williams is interested in Bombers or CFL. #bn
