Default Printers, Palmer on the chopping block.

http://www.sportsnet.ca/football/nfl...30_171101_5664

Palmer has been cut by the Niners, as well, Printers is very likely to be cut by the Chiefs. (SNET TV reported that he is cut).

Let Palmer to OTT rumors begin... considering his dad is part of one of the ownership groups trying to bring a franchise back. Printers is also likely to land back in the CFL.

DO you think BC will take a run a him again? (printers). I don't considering the ruckus he stirred up before he left. However, I wonder if the bombers, green riders or ham would be likely candidates??

I think he would be more of a big centre of the universe type player - so maybe TO?? But in my opinion he would really shine in Roughieland as people would fall in love with him there for sure. Only problem being their curren no.1 (his name fails me right now).

Which I guess would make Hamilton the first team to really take a run at him cause Maas ain't, and shouldn't, last long! However the organization is a mess!

Ahhh, nothing like running myself around in circles!!

I read somewhere he'll likely go on the practice roster. Tsn.ca possibly? I can't recall, you'll probably see Printers do the same thing

From a CP story: "However, Lumsden remains a strong candidate for the Redskins' practice squad should he go unsigned by Sunday, which is the final NFL roster cutdown."

I think Maas has still earned a chance. Actually guy from MTL on 960 this AM said that Palmer was on the MTL neg list and that since AC is getting up there, that MTL might sign Palmer, then cut him!

But as far as QBs go, I think the West is pretty much set next year [Dickinson, Burris, Ray, Joseph (depending on if he moves back to OTT)], but TO will need a new QB since Allen should retire, Winnipeg never has a QB and OTT will need one too.

Not sure who has Printers neg rights, does BC still have them? I doubt he'll want to go back.

Printers stinks. I can't believe the Chiefs wasted their time with him when they could have brought in somebody else that had a chance at becoming a backup which they desperatly need. How in the hell did this guy win the MVP of the CFL?

No chance Printers is back in BC...Dickenson's the guy, and Buck Pierce has proven that he's the guy to take over.

Damon Allen has to retire at some point, so I can see Printers making his way to the Argos.

Heard a rumour of Hamilton shipping Holmes to BC for Printers. Rumblings have been they are shopping Maas around.

IMO, Palmer - if he ever comes to the CFL - will crash and burn. He'll land in Ottawa next year if the group his dad is a part of gets the expansion team.

Just what the CFL needs; another team bought so the owner's son can play QB.
