If Franklin can figure it out Argos might not be terrible. He does have some weapons Walker, Edwards, Green, Wilder.

Green is so far beyond done he can’t even remember what it was like to be good.

Green as in the Rec who was 5th in receiving last year?

That’s the one. The guy can’t move. Any half decent DB can shut him down easily.

So he just got over 1000 yards by accident?

If you stay healthy and get a million targets, it’s not that difficult. 

[Booch]

and over 1400 yards the year before by fluke?...and basically playing the last year with no QB worth spit

[Geebrr]

Green can still produce.

If he was washed up the Riders would have traded for him

But you said any DB can easily shut him down, so why didnt they? If he got millions of targets, they obviously had the chance. He did also have less receptions then 3 out of the 4 Wr ahead of him.

It's not even that I think he is better then what we have. But saying he is so done he doesn't remember what it's like to be good, is obviously insane. The guy can still play, he's past his prime, but will likely still be a 1000yrd rec.

SJ Green is not done ,  that being said the stats are slightly skewed as most of his big games were against the East.   

 

[Fred C Dobbs]

WRT the Bombers game, our O-line should get a good test:

It’s a testament to how hard it is to play DB in the league combined with the significant lack of DB talent right now, especially in the east division last season. Look, watch the guy play rather than eyeball his stats. He can’t get separation anymore. He can still catch the ball and if you leave him open or let him get body position on you, he’s going to make a play but he’s less mobile than end stage obese Nik Lewis at this point and it’s only going to get worse for him.

Interesting - I don't see how Rainey can crack that starting roster other than a DI KR/PR

Its depth that will kill the argos this year...

now your really reaching with that comparison

Lewis in the end would just trot off on a slant into the flats and sit...he had not even half of the elusiveness/speed/agility that Green still possesses

We can agree to disagree. We can both watch him this season and draw our own conclusions. 

[Floyd]

Montreal depth chart up...  its not pretty - seems like (I hope) lots of backups...

I think we can all agree that SJ Green today is not the same as SJ Green 3-4 years ago... but I think it's a stretch to say he's completely done...

Pre-season means jack when it comes to team totals.  Weird that Lolley would flex on his defensive line.

[do or die]

Don't care about the score....just want to see the new horseflesh in action.  

[Noeller]

Considering the injury and rehab SJG went through, it's a remarkable comeback and he's playing at a very high level...

[Bubba Zanetti]

Who was the other twin tower receiver the Alouettes had 5+ years ago or so?? Green and that other guy were bananas good together. Fed us our lunch more than once.

Richardson 

 

[Bubba Zanetti]

That's the guy. Jamel Richardson. Those guys were beasts together.
