  1. That’s stunning imo. He’s seemed pretty solid for them to me. I’d love to have him back at a decent deal. Lfg our wr who art in to. Sheed be his name. Sign with us this week, and forgive us our trespasses…
  2. I wonder what he thinks of captain boomerang and his constant shanks.
  3. It has happened a few times. I’m not sure old bob wants to come to camps and then coaching cap restricts it as well.
  4. Sheed really struggled to start that year, bad case of the drops. Really struggled with the young guys. He came onto the pr and every one stepped up. I firmly believe that fire under sheeds butt took him up a level. Think he sat on our pr for like 6 weeks?
  5. Namaan 2.0 imo if he’s not on the ar this week he won’t be barring another pass of multiple starting wrs going down.
  6. Abuse of the ir and suspended list is kind of silly. The league should make adjustments in the off season. Cap the suspended list, maybe introduce a new extended ir for more savings and roll the 6 into the 1.
  7. In most cases I’d agree. Cole is a guy who’d run through a brick wall get a concussion then do it 10 more times. I would think arm/hand/shoulder injury or maybe neck. Type of thing that used to be played through with a cast maybe.
  8. Cole off sucks almost as bad as bridges on. Having two imp lbers backing up and griffin backing up / dime as an imp bridges to the ar doesn’t make sense.
  9. Don’t put that evil into the world! Probably though. I could actually see it. They dress guys on D not to play them though. I wouldn’t be mad if we cut Johnson put in lucky and tony for grimes. Give em a game to make the team from the bench. We didn’t use Ayer’s or tony on D any way. Cut bridges and Alston bring in young guys to push grimes and lucky. If they don’t win a spot cut em.
  10. We haven’t had good pr useage in a while. I don’t think you can assume it’s a flyer and he will be cut in two weeks if he has nothing left. Lucky is still sitting on the pr in that kind of flyer role. I mean we had a punter most all of last year on the pr with a bad punter on the ar. We have 4 wrs on the pr, one early tc cut who couldn’t crack the team last year either plus a flyer on lucky. 2 imp guards that failed at switching to T previously. Our best kr, our worst camp db, a bad global db, a global rookie and a Canadian teams lber. If we were making sensible moves we would’ve cut bridges for grimes or lucky. Or made moves to bring in positions of actual need like de, wr/kr, T, etc. NFL cut down day doesn’t yield what it used to. The pr expansion and amount of guys that shuttle on and off now keeps guys hanging around waiting for a pr shot. You can still find value, but it’s not an immediate value add or a good trial for next tc any more. We need better pr management all year.
  11. Grimes screams of a guy we wanted a long time ago when he was good but couldn’t get him. Now he’s available and we are fulfilling a want. we could’ve had moncrief, who what ever he has left is better and who made grimes expendable in edm lol. Just ugly ugly move. Either Walter’s/wade are losing their mind or we are going to be losing ours for a good while to come.
  12. Agree with all that. lol ya. Atleast last year he was flashing that quickness closing the gap (he was giving up too much cushion) and made plays on the ball. This year he’s made like one such play. Yeah, kramdi should be a rotational back up type. He’d be good in that use situationally. But mos loves up jumped fringe players. drives me crazy that we could fix most of our problems with ease. And that we gave Kramdi huge bucks. And now we grab grimes but not guys like Titus wall when he was available? I can’t wait to see who comes off the pr lol. Seriously though, we could’ve scooped 3 good young dbs who’ve played good seasons since we won the gc, instead of an old guy who hasn’t played a good one since before. Even if he does idk, maybe we get half a season of a year and a half out of him? Only an upgrade for one imp if he’s got any thjng left. Vs young guys thatve been available. Even then, Cole played S in ps and has played Sam griffin has looked good in limited reps. I have a hard time seeing grimey being better than Cole or griffin.
  13. This season seems more and more like satire. Outside of Kramdi (who they won’t replace) ba is the big hole in the secondary. Idk if they will pull the plug on him either though. Holm hasn’t been good this year and attacked a lot by opposition QBs but I don’t think they’d replace him either.
  14. Qb stats aren’t tools for evaluation. That’s why qbr is the oldest advanced metric in football. I mean what % of his reps on the season came after we clinched the west final? Do you know how many picks he’d have to throw to increase his pick rate by 25%? zach wasnt in the mop race most of the season. You think having the two best wrs and best rb in the league didn’t impact his stats? How do you reconcile the fact that what’s happening has been called for a while and continues while our performances get worse? Last two full games came before clinching the west final.
  15. Qft. I’d love to have ford as qb3 running strevys package taking the beating and allowing strevy to be a qb even dual threat. Not a freaking wildcat
  16. Stats don’t tell the whole story. Keep in mind zach has been playing at a very similar level since we clinched the west last year. The problems have been amplified, and I for sure didn’t see the wheels falling off this bad. And he was rusty for the first two games or so. last year was the most bipolar season of Zachs career, or any I’ve seen in a long time. He was either throwing tds on every drive and destroying teams or tossing pick 6s and going 2n out. The fact is, going all in on a qb in his 35th and 36th year seldom works out. The bottom always falls out on old QBs at some point. Betting against Collaros in the off season was smart money. Output Stats don’t summarize performance at qb. Remember when mbt had more yards than zach in a mop year? Is blm the mop right now?
  17. Really all depends on what you need and are willing to give in terms of cash and reps. You can find a pass rusher or a tackle box lber corner or rb. The guy who plays the best out of the box isn’t likely to be the best upside guy. More like a habba than the next Jeffcoat. You’re right especially about wrs. Most of the guys available aren’t pros yet and haven’t adjust both to the pros and the cfl. Most guys take a year like lawler. NFL pro wrs seldom work out up here in the past few years. You can find guys who are good and capable and ready to produce, but ones who also fit your system and need and can develop as fast relationship with your qb is rare. with the madden analogy even if a guy is a 90, it might take him 6-8 games to play like a 90 if he picks it all up fast. Till then he’s a 50 who will put up some big plays. Nailed it
  18. It’s a damn shame that what he the mafia ba/biggie/thomas etc did is being un done by a refusal let go.
  19. Case is a better runner, but far more tentative. I can see why they want him to have the ball in his hands, but as a kr he looks like a poor man’s Keith stokes in albeit limited opportunity.
  20. It isn’t even close to the worst ol in the league and hasn’t been for about a month. Kola is a problem. Neuf is passed it and lofton might only be a stop gap, but over all the pressure has largely come from blitzes. Zach can’t seem to read the blitz and get it out fast or read when the D shows blitz and drops, or when they rotate coverage. Zach also has the best blocking rb and wrs in the league. If you put him on any team in the league he’d struggle. When he gets pressure he’s tucking the ball, indecisive between running and throwing, takes his eyes off the wrs and locks in on the pass rush, pumps and hesitates. The ball isn’t coming out of his hand clean, I don’t think his throwing hand is 100%. But the biggest problem he faces is between his ears.
  21. I wouldn’t game Ryan dinwiddie over zach right now. Or Robert Marve. Unless he’s got full on bionic knees now.
  22. Idk. I feel like this year is mos’ leash. If he doesn’t turn things around and continues to be an issue I think it becomes a noose. Allowing Walter’s to wrestle back primary control of the team.
  23. If Fajardo is going to be out for 6ish I could see them biting. Especially if they have a bad deal for us to eat. Maybe ott though they shouldn’t. Edm, is a wild card. They could easily begin to play for assets rather than wins this year. But I’m sure they’d require a lot to eat that deal. We have to keep in mind that strevy signed a deal with significant play time incentives. If he hits those and we eat Zachs deal we could be in more cap trouble. It’s critical that we start making moves to save money and cut old dead weight before too long. We need those cap bucks pronto.
  24. https://3downnation.com/2024/07/21/opinion-shea-patterson-out-duelling-zach-collaros-should-give-rider-nation-faith-in-quarterback-future/ more mindless vomit from 3dn. Virtually every starting qb each week has out dueled zach.
