I don't think BLM continues playing in a back-up role.
My wife is amazing!

He'd be a rental but I am sure he would finish this season here with the chance to get one more ring.

He's the best available assuming Hammy would like a future asset for him. He'd do well here, lots of offensive potential.

Mitchell as a rental for the balance of the season and playoffs isn't all that bad of an idea - for the right price.

I would be okay with BLM, but I am a little concerned with Wilson on the short yardage. He did a good job yesterday, but at 6'3", 207, not sure how long he will last. I think if Strev is gone for awhile, we look at a little bigger QB that can and has run the short yardage package in the CFL.
Don't go through life looking in the rearview mirror.

Jake Dolegala 6'7" 242 lbs....big enough for ya??

If Strev down long term sure.  Jake more realistic.

Strevler was on crutches following the game so that looks like it will be awhile that he is out.

I didn't know that thanks.

So far the list of possible replacements (I am making a list and keeping up to date from folks suggestions):

Jake D.
Pipkin
Fine
Taylor Cornelius
Prukop
Dolegala

Long shot
BLM
Maier
Powell

Maybe?
Matthew Shiltz
Chase Brice (was with BC)
NFL cut, neg. list, US college guy

Let's keep the list going fellas

Taylor Cornelius is who they should go after, he can run and decent passer, with better coaching he will be good

Cornelius will be less on the SMS.

DM83

Trade for Dakota. He knows what he is doing in the sneaks and is a decent QB.

There's only 5 games left. The savings will be minimal.
