Mike Posted July 15, 2014 Report Posted July 15, 2014 ... and will be announcing it in 15 minutes. Let the speculation begin.
gbill2004 Posted July 15, 2014 Report Posted July 15, 2014 Oh boy...I'll say it involved Alex Suber or one of our import OLs, with a DL or OL coming back in return.
fan4life Posted July 15, 2014 Report Posted July 15, 2014 I think it will be someone from our 1 game IR. Suber is most likely. Potentially Woods. Longshot Watson. Toronto has Durie out and Owens had an MRI yesterday, perhaps they are in the market for Watson?
Mike Posted July 15, 2014 Author Report Posted July 15, 2014 Roster players rarely seem to get traded. I doubt it's roster players going BOTH ways. Could we see Mulumba or Bilukidi get traded?
gbill2004 Posted July 15, 2014 Report Posted July 15, 2014 Watson or Suber to the Argos for some Canadian OL help? Or maybe we're getting Peach from the Stamps?
Mike Posted July 15, 2014 Author Report Posted July 15, 2014 I just don't see how Suber holds value. I'll be impressed if Walters gets anything for him, it's rare anyone wants to assume a vet DB's existing contract.

I'll be impressed if Walters gets anything for him, it's rare anyone wants to assume a vet DB's existing contract. I'm thinking Suber to Argos because I know Burke really liked him, and he's the Argos DC now.

I'm thinking Suber to Argos because I know Burke really liked him, and he's the Argos DC now. True, but after acquiring Dwight Anderson ... how much room do they really have? I didn't see a big need at DB to begin with for them, unless Drew Willy got a couple of them fired in week 1
gbill2004 Posted July 15, 2014 Report Posted July 15, 2014 @Darren_Cameron: #Bombers have acquired quarterback Josh Portis from Toronto in exchange for a conditional draft choice.
braddman19 Posted July 15, 2014 Report Posted July 15, 2014 An import receiver to TOR if Owens is out for a bit?
Mike Posted July 15, 2014 Author Report Posted July 15, 2014 Hahahaha QB Josh Portis from Toronto for a conditional draft pick.
olwpgjet Posted July 15, 2014 Report Posted July 15, 2014 Roster players rarely seem to get traded. I doubt it's roster players going BOTH ways. Could we see Mulumba or Bilukidi get traded? Hope it is not either. Hoping to see one or both as Bombers in the next year or two.
Saidin Posted July 15, 2014 Report Posted July 15, 2014 Very underwhelming.... 5 QB's on the roster now?!
gbill2004 Posted July 15, 2014 Report Posted July 15, 2014 It was a fun 15 minutes of speculation though!
fan4life Posted July 15, 2014 Report Posted July 15, 2014 It was a fun 15 minutes of speculation though! Glad they didn't say announcement at noon!
Nasty Nate Posted July 15, 2014 Report Posted July 15, 2014 With all the injuries in the east this year - I suspect Walters has someone boxed into a corner. Either Kent Austin or Jim Popp. Not many of our PR or IR guys have that much value 1 on 1 for a starting (Top 6) OL, particularly a national. However, I strongly suspect a package deal this time Involving 2 bomber players going elsewhere plus some neg. rights in exchange for a quality OL (national or international). Deal is deeper for Walters if its a national OL. My best guess - Watson & Suber plus neg rights to Andy Mulumba for a starting OL (who isn't currently injured). If Mulumba gets himself cut and ends up in the CFL Walters should also make the trade conditional so we get a 2nd rd pick from whoever got Mulumba. Addendum: I take everything back. Totally underwhelming!!! I guess there's major concern about Brohm or Marve handling the reins should Willy go down!
Atomic Posted July 15, 2014 Report Posted July 15, 2014 Probably due to Marve sucking at short yardage Mike 1

gbill2004 Posted July 15, 2014 Report Posted July 15, 2014 Must be some concerns with our backup QB situation.

braddman19 Posted July 15, 2014 Report Posted July 15, 2014 Or maybe has someone like Brohm or Marve asked for their release to pursue other opportunity?
