gbill2004 Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 I've been reading a few scouting reports on Drew Willy and I think he might be as good, or slightly better option than Collaros. Here's one of the scouting reports: http://walterfootball.com/scoutingreport2009dwilly.php. Either way, as long as the Bombers don't completely screw things up, we will end up with at least one very good QB.
OldSchoolBlue Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 I'd love to see both here. THAT would tell me the Bombers are serious. It's not likely to happen for sure, but even competing against each other this is still the best option for them IMO.
The Unknown Poster Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 Buck had much-needed shoulder surgery so he could be rejuvenated next season. Might look good as the Bombers starter. Lots of experience there. max power 1
Bomber_fanaddict Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 Buck had much-needed shoulder surgery so he could be rejuvenated next season. Might look good as the Bombers starter. Lots of experience there. Floyd 1
Mike Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 Considering the post history of TUP, I'm not so sure he was kidding. Blue-urns 1
Floyd Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 Is he getting laser eye surgery too so he can finally read a defence? Logan007, Blue-urns and robynjt 3
Logan007 Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 Is he getting laser eye surgery too so he can finally read a defence? LOL...Kels, you have won the internet today for that comment.
Armchair GM Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 Definitely joking. Not so sure. Unknown Poster is probably the staunchest Burke apologist and Pierce fan on the board. He's either serious, or doing some deep water trolling.
holoman Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 Buck had much-needed shoulder surgery so he could be rejuvenated next season. Might look good as the Bombers starter. Lots of experience there. Tim Burke??? Is that you?
northof60 Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 Drew Willy would be a very, very good free agent signing for the Bombers. Noeller and Blue-urns 2
The Unknown Poster Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 I was joking. Also Im not a Burke apologist. I just realise he isnt the devil incarnate sent to earth to maliciously destroy the Bombers. He's a human being. The personal insults towards him months later became ridiculous. Im not the only one who found this place getting far too negative. Mike, you used to be a huge Buck fan. I'm a Buck fan but I supported going in a different direction last season.
17to85 Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 Definitely joking. Not so sure. Unknown Poster is probably the staunchest Burke apologist and Pierce fan on the board. He's either serious, or doing some deep water trolling. No definitely a troll, tries to be funny with it but falls short in that regard. Real pity it's so obvious cause with some more refining could be a beauty.
Mr. Perfect Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 I've said it before, I'll say it again: I really hope somehow Willy is with us next year. I have nothing against Collaros, I think he is serviceable. That being said he has flaws in his game that I don't see in Willy. Willy provides the complete package you want in a passer.

Yes and that is why he isn't playing in the NFL?
Guest Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 Why would we need Buck back, don't we already have Goltz ? Wasn't Goltz supposed to be the future and better than Buck ? Or why not try and bring back Elliott, because you know that guy was amazing. Willy looks like a decent QB, wouldn't even call him a prospect anymore, he's been playing pro football for awhile, IMO Collaros has the higher ceiling, but Willy is probably the more prepared/developed to start now.
iso_55 Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 Buck had much-needed shoulder surgery so he could be rejuvenated next season. Might look good as the Bombers starter. Lots of experience there. That ship has thankfully sailed....

Goltz, ugh!
rebusrankin Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 I'd take with Wiley or Collaros. Heck I'd also take Vince Howard, Matt Saracen and Paul Crewe.
Tracker Posted January 25, 2014 Report Posted January 25, 2014 No! We absolutely cannot sign him. Then we'd be looking at someone else's Willy all year. Ick. Free Willy!
Blueandgold Posted January 25, 2014 Report Posted January 25, 2014 Collaros seems like he's made for the CFL, not that I have anything against Willy but frankly he'd be a consolation prize. Blue-urns 1

Yes and that is why he isn't playing in the NFL? How is that relevant? Ray gives you the complete package as a QB (Reading a defense, accuracy, knowing what passes need touch, footwork, mechanics, etc) but is not in the NFL.
gbill2004 Posted January 25, 2014 Author Report Posted January 25, 2014 Ed Tait's article in today's Free Press confirms the Bombers are also interested in Willy, but Collaros is priority number one. Mr. Perfect 1
James Posted January 25, 2014 Report Posted January 25, 2014 Drew Willy is a good prospect and all, but I highly doubt he would be successful here. Collaros has a much better chance of success behind our O-line IMO.
