Every penny we pinch could come up huge after nfl cuts go out.

It all depends on the qb. Most qbs are far more pro ready now then they used to be. Plus more ncaa and nfl teams are running schemes similar to what we do up here. Weve seen this year lots of guys go from zero to winning starter. Its all about the player and how pro ready they are.

Lol. Sure. Hamilton signed Watford when Masoli went down.. This QB ppl think will be brought in doesn't exist. A 3rd QB will be brought in but im guessing hes more Watford than Glenn.
johnzo Posted August 21, 2019 Report Posted August 21, 2019 Wonder who the emergency QB3 is for the game this week? (hoping I don't learn the answer to this question obvs)
Old Bomber Fan Posted August 21, 2019 Report Posted August 21, 2019 Whom ever the bomber sign as QB he will never see the field. Streveler can throw and he can certainly run. Patience will be a key for him. McGuire can play as well. I like his ability to throw as well perhaps a little better than Streveler and he can also run. My concern is two fold: will Lapo become too predictable a just try to run, on which case we will go nowhere and the other is how many reps will they both receive before game day. I dare say McGiver has had very few to date so he needs a lot of reps as does Streveler. IF our coaches can coach these guys we will be fine Adrenaline_x 1

I don't buy they're waiting to see how Streveler does, they'll bring someone in regardless, just less rush knowing that they should be able to run with Streveler until Nichols is healthy.
Noeller Posted August 21, 2019 Author Report Posted August 21, 2019 People assume I meant that they'll bring in a potential starter if Streveler falters.....not what I meant at all. I just don't think they're in a rush to bring in a #3 at all, but the rush will be on if things don't look good on Friday....in the meantime, I think they're happy with 2 guys.

Exactly, there's no rush. Lots of NFL teams go with two QB's on the roster, one on the PR, or sometimes none on the PR. They realize that if you need to go to your number 3 guy, you're done. There's no one out there in the football universe that the Bombers can sign as a number 3 right now that could salvage a season for us, or even beat out Streveler or Show Me The Money McGuire. And why do they need another veteran presence in the QB room? Nichols is that. voodoochylde 1
M.Silverback Posted August 21, 2019 Report Posted August 21, 2019 (edited) Thoughts? https://3downnation.com/2019/08/21/the-blue-bombers-should-trade-for-argos-qb-james-franklin/ I wouldn't do it unless we're talking about a 4th round pick or later. Not a second round pick. We got Nichols for a seventh round pick. Edited August 21, 2019 by M.Silverback

What’s holding them back? The fact at this point in time there is no viable solution with any real level of experience. They know Toronto is going to be forced to either release a QB or 6 game someone again....
MC Posted August 21, 2019 Report Posted August 21, 2019 There is always a project QB on the practice roster by early September. But that is just to see if they are worth bringing to training camp next year. That will still happen. They need to bring a QB with real CFL experience in case they need someone to play this year. There is no need for that guy to be here before they hit the practice field next week. That person may already be signed for all we know. Bigblue204 1
Bigblue204 Posted August 21, 2019 Report Posted August 21, 2019 Franklin coming here would be 1) a complete waste of time as he hasn't shown that he can be better then Streveler, and I don't think he can be better than him honestly. And b) a distraction, creating a QB controversy even when Nichols returns. Of course Hodge wrote this complete pile of crap. Sard 1

He hasn't looked good in Toronto but he was better than a lot of guys when he was in Edmonton. I'd absolutely take a chance on him.

Adrenaline_x Posted August 21, 2019 Report Posted August 21, 2019 Franklin might be a good pickup, but we wouldn't be playing him unless Strevler was hurt and McQuire, who has had half a season to learn the offence and beat out Bennet showed really poorly. Risky running with 2 QBs only when 7 of 8 starters are out of have been injured this year. If strevler is injured and out for any amount of time, a weeks delays could really hamper a new player from getting up to speed.
