rebusrankin Posted January 12, 2016 Report Posted January 12, 2016 Why would you want Eric Fraser? Jones is not a linebacker.

Same reason Wally wanted him back... looks like he re-signed on Dec 20 Jones is 6'1 190, can play SAM like Sherman could play SAM Anyway, you'd hope one of Sherman, Waggoner, Morgan, Jones must be ready to take the next step
Jpan85 Posted January 12, 2016 Report Posted January 12, 2016 Duron Carter was not resigned by Colts off their practice roster MOBomberFan, Tracker and Fred C Dobbs 3

Mike Posted January 12, 2016 Report Posted January 12, 2016 I'd love to get Carter ... he'd easily be among the best receivers in the CFL. Bigblue204 1
TBURGESS Posted January 12, 2016 Report Posted January 12, 2016 Carter is very high on my imaginary 'FA's I like us to pick up list'. Bigblue204 and Noeller 2
Noeller Posted January 12, 2016 Report Posted January 12, 2016 Be a real interesting pick up at the right price...
Mr Dee Posted January 12, 2016 Report Posted January 12, 2016 Talk is nice and all that, but there's no way I'm getting excited over this "interest". I remember Reilly, and Collaros, and Burris and Laurent and a host of other names that were on my fantasy team too.
bigg jay Posted January 12, 2016 Report Posted January 12, 2016 I would assume most, if not all , teams have interest in Carter. I'd be more excited if the story was that he had interest in coming here. Mr Dee and Bigblue204 2
Blueandgold Posted January 12, 2016 Report Posted January 12, 2016 I'l take Carter or Rogers...I'm not picky, I'd be equally as pleased with either one :).

Since Walters can't recruit receivers for **** might as well blow the bank on free agents. Tracker and TBURGESS 2
Noeller Posted January 13, 2016 Report Posted January 13, 2016 Yeah, that's definitely my issue...why the **** can't we find import receivers? Why the **** are we paying huge in FA for them? That pisses me off... rebusrankin 1
Bigblue204 Posted January 13, 2016 Report Posted January 13, 2016 I'm guessing there are about 8 other teams interested in Carter as well. DR. CFL and sweep the leg 2

The best thing about the tweet, to me, is that it seems to confirm that Walters and O'Shea recognize our need for a game breaking receiver. I don't think signing Carter can be considered a probability, but I like the way they are thinking on this. Bigblue204 1

Agreed, by fishing in the deepest waters hoping to hook high priced free agents Walters is failing to build the club up in the way that he said he would only two years ago. Instead of successfully recruiting imports and developing their own prospects through the draft they are relying heavily on out bidding other teams for already proven players and paying the highest price possible in the process. After largely failing to find their own future prospects, leaks like this reek of desperation imo.

It's not in anyway desperate to go after a proven game breaker like Carter. Maybe going hard after someone like Price or Dressler...but not a guy who is only starting his career and who likely is seeing interest from all CFL teams.

I would hope the GM and coach would realize that we need a big time receiver considering the average fair weather fan can clearly see this...

Goalie Posted January 14, 2016 Report Posted January 14, 2016 Didn't Ottawa release lemon so he could sign with San Fran. Was he let go already from the 49ers? ?
Blueandgold Posted January 15, 2016 Report Posted January 15, 2016 It's probably not realistic, but imagine a receiving core of Carter, Dressler/Smith and Denmark with Andrew Harris at RB? Man that would be awesome.
Taynted_Fayth Posted January 19, 2016 Report Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) I didnt realize JC Sherrit was a FA and still unsigned by the eskies. If he hits the market and price is right, would he be worth picking up? If waggoner is a player to watch this year and can establish himself a starter to ratio replace Hurl, ?? hes only 28 and his injury issues were his thumb which he broke twice Edited January 19, 2016 by Taynted_Fayth
