To deprive BC of a player of Glenn's capabilities would be awesome, but at what cost?
How about starting with our 1st round draft choice, Goosen? That is a high cost.
But we can't stop there now can we? Because I tell you what, BC can afford to throw more in trade that we could have, so I believe they would have got him anyways.
We may have driven up the bidding, but since we had our starter and BC didn't, they would not have backed down,
People forget that there were literally months on inaction on the Kevin Glenn front before the draft and before Wally began to worry about Lulay's shoulder. I believe that had Walters taken the initiative he could have gotten Glenn for less than what Desjardin was asking. Desjardin had to be nervous at the inaction and as a first year GM he didn't need the **** storm that Glenn was kicking up. Don't know what it would have taken but the Bombers clearly had lots of expendable assets at their disposal as many of them are no longer with the club. How about Watson, Volny, Cauchy, Suber and the rights to Chris Matthews....something like that would have looked good to Ottawa and would have had little effect on were the Bombers are now....just speculatin'
