Story on M B-T

If that is it for Franklin, he has to be one of the biggest busts in recent Argos memory. If we go with MBT and he falters, Franklin would have set the franchise back 3 years of winning. Terrible.

I have no idea why Collaros is on this team.

A bust? Maybe we put unrealistic expectations on him, but the fact is he had 2 great games prior to coming here. Unfortunately both were against the Argos so we may not have been looking at things objectively. Just like every other QB that comes to this league, until they firmly establish themselves, they are all just prospects.

In addition, Franklin had to become the starting QB earlier than the Argos planned due to Ricky Ray's injury, so he missed out on some development time. His early problems were likely somewhat related to that and may have also affected his confidence.

Maybe we did. They gave him unrealistic money too then. The franchise was then unrealistic to hope he would be the answer post Ricky Ray. All this hope and mortgaging the future on a prospect? I agree, it’s a crapshoot most of the time. So frustrating. I have no answers either.
