TBURGESS

Locker room leader is what folks call an old Vet who is not as valuable on the field as they used to be.

Neuf is one of those old guys I hoped we'd move on from.

Making us the 3rd best team in the league.

We were the 3rd best team in the league last year. We were only in the cup because the top 2 were in the same division.

How much of that do you attribute to the O line he's been behind? No way to prove it, but I still say that we'd have done as well with any of the top half of the league QB's because the rest of the team is that good.

Wins are a team stat, not a QB stat. If VAJ was our QB, I'd say we'd have won the same number of GC's as we have with Collaros, maybe more. It's not like Collaros lit up the other teams.

I watched it and was surprised when he talked about Ford. Is it just me or did he kinda say that he'll go elsewhere for a big contract?

While appearing on "The SportsCage" on Friday, CFL reporter Arash Madani shared an interesting bit of information. "I'm told Cody Fajardo is done in Montreal. Unless he's willing to play for a lot less, they're going to move forward with Davis Alexander there. There are a lot of moving parts at the QB position that have to unfold."

It's still going to be status quo tho.

Willy J was the best Bomber on the field in the GC. Pay the man.

I'd say it's an equally big gamble to stick with Collaros considering he's been on a downward trajectory for a couple of years now.

Quarterback Jake Dolegala (A) Chris Streveler (A) Running back Johnny Augustine (N) Fullback Bailey Feltmate (N) Receiver Kenny Lawler (A) Dalton Schoen (A) Lucky Whitehead (A) Offensive linemen Stanley Bryant (A) Liam Dobson (N) Eric Lofton (A) Patrick Neufeld (N) Defensive linemen Miles Fox (A) TyJuan Garbutt (A) Celestin Haba (A) Willie Jefferson (A) Jake Thomas (N) Linebacker Adam Bighill (A) Brian Cole (A) Shayne Gauthier (N) Tony Jones (A) Kyrie Wilson (A) Defensive back Brandon Alexander (A) Tyrell Ford (N) Nick Hallett (N) Noah Hallett (N) Evan Holm (A) Jamal Parker (A) Specialists LS Mike Benson (N) K Sergio Castillo (A) I underlined the guys I don't care if we bring back.

He's not one of us.

If you think Adams is expensive, what do you think of Collaros' contract?

It's still better than BC's.

Yes, it applies to both. VAJ was behind a horrible O line and an OC who didn't want to run the ball. Behind our O line, with Brady O, he'd have a ton more tools to work with. You can add in Strev's paycheck, but no, you can't replace Zach even up for $350K.

I'd expect them to be in on VAJ or Ford before they'd be willing to pay $600K for Collaros. That being said, I'd be happy to trade Collaros and go younger/cheaper. You're confusing team with QB again.

I don't think that Collaros will knock off a 12-14 win season next year, so that's not the bar I'd worry about. VAJ is the best available QB, behind our O line, he could be amazing. Ford can make every throw and can run like the wind. He'd be my 2nd choice. Alexander showed great promise, but he's got very few reps. Not ready for the starting QB job, but would be a great #2 for either of the above QB's. BTW: Do you think that any team would trade for Collaros and his overly large contract.

If we cut Zac (we won't) we pay him $250K. If we keep him we pay him $600K. The question is... is it worth the sunk $250K to move on from Collaros and go to a younger QB? I'd say it is, but I totally understand folks who say it isn't.

He shouldn't have been on the field at all considering he couldn't grip the ball properly. As he was on the field, give him a quick easy throw to see if he still had enough zip to keep playing.

IMO it's either Schoen or Lawler and I'd take Lawler.

I like that list. I'd add Streveler, Schoen, Gauthier & Whitehead.

Buck called the play. The read took Collaros to the deep throw.

Buck used the same scheme as he did last week. We didn't come up with the bombs this week & he didn't change anything. Why on earth did he call a deep ball for Collaros on his first throw with a glove?
