The Stamps picked the players they needed to replace Rambo and Thelwell. Romby Bryant is a fast and good receiver who will take some of Rambo's responsibilities. Arjei Franklin is a non-import receiver they need since Thelwell is done for the season with injuries. As for the players they gave up, Titus Ryan shown some potential early in the season especially retruning punt and kicks but he's been struggling in the past few games dropping the balls a lot more than he supposed to. He's also been making some bad decisions out there. Too bad I like the guy but that's what happenned when you don't perform the way you supposed to. I like Jabari Arthur as well and I really think he will be a good Canadian receiver in this league. He's been having some bad lucks here in Calgary with injuries. DL Odell Willis, I love this guy's tenacity but he was having problem shaking off the double-teaming against him. He started off really fast with 6 QB sacks but slow down. I really like him as well but with Tey George and Charleston Hughes coming back, he is the odd man out. If they didn't trade him, the Stamps might lose him for nothing anyways. Yes we gave up 3 good players but that is something a team needs to do in order to pick the players they needed. I don't think the Stamps will make this trade if the circumstances are different. ie: Ryan not struggling, Arthur being healthy and Stamps not having Hughes and George on the lineup. Of course the reason for the trade is the replacement for Rambo and canadian receiver.
I'll say good trade all around. Can't wait to find out who is the unnamed player on negotiation list though.
