    Argo Neg List

    We don't often get a look at the CFL Negotiation Lists, but thanks to this site, we get a peak;

    http://3downnation.com/2015/12/19/th...l-bowl-season/

    Shane Williams-Rhodes, the diminutive speedster from Boise State. Could he be the Argos next K/P Returner?

    Cody Kessler, the QB from USC is also listed

    Interesting. Kessler seems like a lock to be drafted in the NFL (NFLdraftscout currently has him as the #6 QB for 2016), but maybe we'll see him in a couple of years.

    Shane Williams -Rhodes is KILLER fast and can do it all. I'd be surprised if he doesn't get some NFL interest as a returner. My team is Michigan but my wife likes Boise St so we keep an eye them. While on Vancouver Island we were lucky to see them plenty. One year the whole offence was built to get the ball into Williams-Rhodes hands.

    Man I'd LOVE and I mean LOVE to see both him and Jeremy Gallon who we just signed out of Michigan to be Argonauts. Perhaps lining up the new Chad Owens. I guess Barker sees the need to have great punt and kick returners which we've been lacking. Maybe he reads this site because I've been bitching about it a ton. haha.

    A few years back I kept going on about how the Argos never find their own qb's and rb's and then all of a sudden we found Collaros, Harris, Kackert and the likes of Johnson who ended up in Ottawa to name a few.

    Thanks for posting that link.

    A day after seeing that original post and MAN I really hope we can get our hands on Williams-Rhodes. He has great CFLer written all over him.

    We'll spend three years developing Kessler into a great CFL QB, and then we'll let him go to another CFL team so that Ricky Ray can gimp around a CFL field for another three years in an Argo uniform. Hey why not, Ricky was a great QB himself once!

    Yeah, that is exactly what will happen, because YOU said so.

    Rich you must be a great athlete because you seem to know it all. You'll be choking down those words and your foot as Ray will be back in fine form next year.

    Really, argoholic, a personal insult just because I expressed an opinion about Ricky Ray? Are only certain opinions allowed here?

    I think it was more the condescending way in which you expressed your opinion. You insulted Ricky Ray, so argoholic took personal offence and retaliated. I get it.

    Why do you constantly rip Ray Rich? The guy was injured and then still recovering from the surgery. He's far from DONE. It wasn't long ago that Burris was supposedly DONE.

    You're entitled to your opinion just like everyone else, but that doesn't mean that someone can't call you out on your opinion.

    Boise St just demolished NI. Williams-Rhodes looks pretty solid and even have a great block for a 5'6" 176 pound guy. I'd love to see him in double blue.
