February 26, 20169 yr comment_185856 They said they have roster flexibility now that allows them not to need a Canadian RB to back Messam up now.

February 26, 20169 yr comment_185866 11 minutes ago, Throw Long Bannatyne said: Apparently he does. http://www.stampeders.com/2016/02/26/walter-released/ Calgary Stampeders general manager John Hufnagel announces that the team has released national running back Matt Walter. “I thank Matt for all of his contributions to the club over the past four seasons and wish him the best of luck,” said Hufnagel. “Although we did recently re-sign Jerome Messam, we have increased roster flexibility heading into the 2016 season and it’s no longer necessary for us to start a national at running back and to have a national backup.” Walter was a fifth-round draft pick of the Stamps in 2011 and he joined the team in 2012. He played 59 career regular-season games — including 14 starts — for Calgary and accumulated 1,264 rushing yards and four touchdowns as well as 28 receptions for 217 yards. He was also a contributor on special teams with 11 tackles and eight kickoff returns for 160 yards. The University of Calgary product appeared in eight post-season contests and was a member of the Stamps’ 2014 Grey Cup-winning team.
February 26, 20169 yr comment_185902 Andrew Harris, Matt Walter and Paschal Lochard gives you a very good depth in the Nat RB position.
February 26, 20169 yr comment_185911 Walter is worth a look.... still relatively young,solid back-up to Harris and a good ST 'er....We look like the best destination for him IF the price is right...c'mon down..
February 26, 20169 yr comment_185919 Sounds like Calgary wants to start an import with Messam as the number two.

February 27, 20169 yr comment_185930 Wouldn't he want to sign with a team that he actually has a chance to see the field?

Walter isn't a starter but he fills an important role. He allows the ratio to stay the same if Harris was injured. Plus he can actually play the position. He's not flashy but he works hard every time he carries the football. I'd love to see him here.

February 27, 20169 yr comment_185979 Would like to see Matt Walter here... but I got a feeling he will land with Esks, possible replacement to McCarthy.
February 27, 20169 yr comment_185982 13 hours ago, Brandon said: I'll go with Toronto He'd have almost no chance of seeing the field on offence for the Argos. They are fulfilling the ratio almost entirely on defence and OL, with Coombs and Durie too.
February 27, 20169 yr comment_185984 Walter and Winnipeg look like a match made in heaven. I'd love to have him here.
February 27, 20169 yr comment_185994 Oh man I'd love to have Matt Walter as a Bomber. I was always surprised at how little dropoff I saw in the Calgary running game whenever he spelled Cornish. Having him would give us great roster stability in a position that sees a lot of injuries. We wouldn't have to destabilize another position on the team if Harris went down.

C-O-R-N-I-S-H. Heck, even I can spell it and my spelling at times is atrocious.
