CFL Discussion Non-Ticat

The Toronto Argonauts have released RB Deonta McMahon, per the wire

In 128 carries over the past three seasons in Toronto, McMahon put up 578 yards (4.5 ypc) and 8 TD

The team also released Canadian linebacker Stephen Smith

Those are some legendary names. Good memories. I dont recall his stats, but Tony Champion is remembered for The Catch in the 1989 Grey Cup game.

BC makes the most sense. Ford has a similar playing style and passport as Rourke.

I would be suprised if he didn’t sign with BC before the weekend is over.

Could they afford it?
Rouke just re-signed for $625K/yr for 3 more years
I believe he could have better options of starting elsewhere

BC seems to magically afford anything they want.

Ford will make 150K tops anyways.

Ford is in no position to command a big salary, and I can’t see any team being interested in him as a starter until and unless he spends some time on film work and self-improvement. BC, Winnipeg, Calgary, and Montreal would all be fits for him, but in the QB2 role.

Still doesn’t mean teams see him as the solution, not after how things went for him in Edmonton. I think he will land somewhere but much like Calvillo in Montreal, he’ll have to take a step back, regroup, and learn.

Report from Pifff Podcats or whatever it is called that they wont be going after Ford… Which leaves me to WPG, OTT, HAM 2 aging QBs and 1 always injured QB

Listen with how Milanovich has done with Bos career in the last few years im sure he could do to Fords career too

Ford will never be the passer Bo is.

You can’t make chicken salad out of chicken s**t. Tre Ford is unemployed because he’s not a viable solution at QB in the CFL. He’ll have a job, but my guess is more likely as a #3 short yardage guy or at best a gadget guy that comes in on designed runs, or maybe trick plays with two QBs on the field together.

I wonder who will be the Elks #2 QB this season

That time Suitor, on behalf on the CFL universe, demanded EDM start Ford and ELK fans trying to run Chris Jones out of town because he ā€œhates Canadiansā€. Apologies are owed.
