Better chance it's Simoni Lawrence

A guy can dream.

May I unrealistically Say Derek Walker come on down.

I love it that as hardcore Winnipeg fans when good things happen our first instinct is to say ‘suck it Riders’. Even if it’s not football. ‘Jets make the playoffs- suck it Riders!’ lol

TMI.

That would be like trading Dave Babych for Ray Neufeld type insanity.

Protecting Collaros priority #1.

Cost of living is a factor no? I’m assuming Winnipeg wins that one.

Argo fan??? Wow, didn't see that coming. Welcome :-)

Or they plan to exceed the cap and pay the penalty at the end of the season.

Probably but I'd take Walker as a consolation prize.

TO gets WJ ,we get Walker. Deal.

Could be but I just have a feeling the pilot light isn’t out just yet.

Please stay healthy please stay healthy please stay healthy please stay healthy

I'm convinced he's done with us but not yet convinced he's done with hockey.

I hold hope. WJ is obviously someone we would like to retain but I can’t get over imagining the potential chemistry that could quickly develop between Collaros and Walker.

I so hope you’re right about Walker.

Going down the route of contract termination versus a trade would suggest DB doesn't want to play anymore? Or does it suggest DB wants full control over his future whether it be playing with another team or not playing at all?

Yup could do but if he does wouldn’t feel like a real ‘I’m retiring as a Winnipeg Jet’.

I really felt/hoped he would retire a Jet. All signs say not. Was my #1 favorite current Jet, gave us a unique identity. Oh well. Nothing lasts forever. He provided us with hours and hours of entertainment not to mention many great meme's. Thank you, it was a great ride. All the best to DB and his family. Now lets free up that cash, strengthen our team and make available #33 to any Jet who wants it.

Fair enough, one way to look at it for sure. However, playing from behind when he was active suggests he was part (not all) of the reason this team was bad. I'm guessing the Argo's will pull the trigger quite quickly if he falters out of the gate.

'Bethel-Thompson did lead the league in 4Q attempts when trailing by 15+ (50). 26/50, 308 yds, 3 TD, 1 INT Down by 9 or more it's still just 75 of his almost 500 attempts'. - DT on Sports Cage I'm not sure being the league leader in 4Q attempts makes your case to be the starter.

Will be interesting to see how our O redefines itself after losing Lapo, MN and Strev. Any full back QB's available on the market?

Okay boomer. 🙂

You could be right. Cut from the same mould anyway
