More playing time opportunity should make him better - obviously - but he has the arm strength (his passing stats in U Sports ball were good to outstanding - not like he was just a running QB), and needs more playing time. Watching the game tonight, Ford IMO has a superior passing arm and decision making with throws compared to the likes of Caleb Evans or Dolagala, or that rookie guy the Ticats have trotted out lately; not to mention a stiff like Dom Davis.

I could see a scenario where this garbage EE team is blown up and then maybe a new staff does not value Tre Ford and he is put back to 3rd string or even let go; THEN, there should be plenty of other CFL teams as suitors to give him another chance - like so many Americans get in the CFL (but O'Connor did not in terms of playing time opportunity).
