17to85 Posted September 1, 2015 Report Posted September 1, 2015 Ugh. Gross. Do your ******* job Walters and find a guy who can play, there's only about a million runningbacks in the states looking for work. blitzmore and Blue-urns 2
voodoochylde Posted September 1, 2015 Report Posted September 1, 2015 What a colossal waste of a roster spot ..
Mike Posted September 1, 2015 Author Report Posted September 1, 2015 ^^ yeah, basically. Stuff like this makes me cringe. Walters needs to rely on fresh faces a bit more often. Chevon Walker was absolutely awful in Ottawa.
Noeller Posted September 1, 2015 Report Posted September 1, 2015 People complained about Mack never signing FAs or retreads, and Walters likely does it too much, relying less on recruiting than Mack. Need something more in the middle... Blue-urns and JohnnyOnTheSpot 2
bearpants Posted September 1, 2015 Report Posted September 1, 2015 I've been trying to stay optimistic all season... with every going on this past week... I'm starting to lose it...
IC Khari Posted September 1, 2015 Report Posted September 1, 2015 Alright, I'm over this season. Over and out?
pigseye Posted September 1, 2015 Report Posted September 1, 2015 This is Marcel living in the past, I said it last season too, the team had Marcel stink all over it, makes you wonder who is really calling the shots. shadybob and Floyd 2
rebusrankin Posted September 1, 2015 Report Posted September 1, 2015 They couldn't find anybody better? Gross.
Mike Posted September 1, 2015 Author Report Posted September 1, 2015 People complained about Mack never signing FAs or retreads, and Walters likely does it too much, relying less on recruiting than Mack. Need something more in the middle... No kidding. I like when we go out and see Walters making moves Mack would've never made like Jasper Simmons or Stanley Bryant but holy **** do we really need to sign every Chevon Walker and Dom Picard along the way? Noeller 1
M.O.A.B. Posted September 1, 2015 Report Posted September 1, 2015 They should have sign Will Ford or Chris Garrett instead.... and I will be happy with it.
Atomic Posted September 1, 2015 Report Posted September 1, 2015 Not a huge fan of this move but I do appreciate that we are not standing pat with the current roster.
Brandon Posted September 1, 2015 Report Posted September 1, 2015 Remember when we refused to sign Messam when he was free? wbbfan, Fatty Liver, JohnnyOnTheSpot and 6 others 9
Mike Posted September 1, 2015 Author Report Posted September 1, 2015 They should have sign Will Ford or Chris Garrett instead.... and I will be happy with it. No, truthfully they should have signed an actual brand new talent instead. Even though some of them have worked out, this regime has given meaningful carries to a grand total of ONE running back that wasn't on his second or third look at the CFL. Paris Cotton couldn't even make Hamilton, Nic Grigsby was in Toronto (or BC I believe) for a bit of a training camp, then we were going to trot out Tyler Thomas and now Chevon Walker? Cam Marshall seems to be the only entirely fresh face. It's getting old.
pigseye Posted September 1, 2015 Report Posted September 1, 2015 At least they recognize they are not getting the production out of the RB position that they should however, I too don't see Chevy as the answer to that problem.
Brandon Posted September 1, 2015 Report Posted September 1, 2015 It's bizarre since rbs are dime a dozen... There has to be a tonne of NFL cuts they could bring in?
KptKrunch Posted September 1, 2015 Report Posted September 1, 2015 I didn't know Cotton was in Hamilton. Interesting. So it's not just QB's being released from other teams we're bringing in, it's cuts from other teams. No wonder we are what we are lol. Though I don't mind Walker as much as others as he has proven he can play in this league (prior to his injuries anyway) so lets see what he does here. One thing for sure, he won't be worse that what we already have, including one Paris Cotton who wasn't doing much prior to breaking arm save one good game.
Bigblue204 Posted September 1, 2015 Report Posted September 1, 2015 I'm not totally against this, as long as we use his skills properly. Knowing MB though, I won't be surprised when we watch him on 2nd and 4, take a hand off from shotgun.

gbill2004 Posted September 1, 2015 Report Posted September 1, 2015 I'm not a huge fan of this, but if we're planning on going with Thunder & Lightning still, we need a lightning with Cotton out, so Walker is okay I guess. Atomic 1
IC Khari Posted September 1, 2015 Report Posted September 1, 2015 What if Walker is that unexpected add that teams sometimes use to get over the hump and turn their season around like Butch Goring was to the 1980 NY Islanders? Nah ...
