My money would be on Toronto because he's a big name (in the CFL at least), they love ex-Stampeders and the salary cap doesn't seem to apply to them.
his immobility makes him even worse than Farjardo. I mean even Ricky Ray ran the ball when he was at the end of his career sometimes. Bo is done. but i would 1000% support him to sign with the Riders!

I would think Toronto as well, a lot of familiarity with the coaching staff and players. Hard to say if he is finished, at one point Collaros looked like he was going to be out of the league in Hamilton he went 0-11 or something like that.

Bo's accuracy seems to be gone, and this system needs a QB who can complete high percentage throws. He also turned into a turnover machine in Grey Cups for some reason, 3 vs Ottawa, 2 vs Toronto, 2 vs Ottawa again in a win, even 3 vs Winnipeg in the WSF in 2019. That's a lot of picks especially playing for a guy like Dickenson who played turnover free football.

I'm willing to bet every single team in the CFL would start Bo over Fajardo including the Riders who will likely be bidding for Mitchell's services in the offseason.

Not with that surgically replaced shoulder...

But sure take him off our hands!

Anytime you can replace a running back playing QB with a real QB you do it.

Toronto
Montreal
Ottawa
Edmonton
Saskatchewan

I would say all those teams are going to be in on Bo.

Sounds like Edmonton thinks Cornelius is the QB of the present future so I don't know if they would be involved providing he doesn't totally stink things up for the remainder of the season.

I also think the Riders would be very interested in Bo, but the offensive line has Fajardo running for his life and we all know that Bo is not fleet of foot.

He has been a pro the whole time. Sucks to watch it end because we had incredible success with him as our QB and leader.

Agreed. one of the great stamps of all time. Always professional.

2 chips, 4 appearances. I think his jersey is worthy of retirement one day.

Ottawa should make it happen, that team is utterly rudderless right now and needs something postitive

Exactly right - Jake took a late hit from Mathieu Betts of the Lions and came away limping and my first thought was "I hope Jake is okay, but Bo is a pretty good insurance plan".

Yeah I would keep him, especially since he hasn't asked for a trade.

From Ottawa's perspective the only reason to trade for him now would be to get him into the system for next season, but that's pointless at this point since that coaching staff is getting canned.

I can't imagine the Stamps trading him because he's insurance going into the playoffs and I'm not sure if Stevens is ready.

I can't see Bo accepting a backup role just yet. I see him going to couple different cities in next couple of years and then coming back to Calgary to backup and then retiring, like Dickenson (minus the success DD had).

LOL coming from a guy where Trudope lives rent free in your head in the off topic forum.

Have you not watched any games this year? he can't throw an accurate pass over 20 yards.

His shoulder is toast IMO. I don't think he wants to be in Regina for various reasons.

It's out East; one of the three in the XFL teams in Texas; or retirement.
