If you were the GM, would you release Buck Pierce?

Trade him to Saskatchewan. Brendan Taman is in the process of dismantling the Riders, similar to how he dismantled the Bombers and prior to that the Lions. I’m sure he can send you a quality player in return.

Why in the world would the riders want Buck pierce? They are ahead of the curve in realizing that new US imports and NFL free agents are now very famliar with the CFL thanks to all of the coverage in the states. Drew Willy will is going to be a star on the rise in the CFL. His QB coach In colege was Danny Barrett and Barrett has prepared him for the CFL game. Didnt You see his pocket presence and quick reads and decision making in the pre season.

…maybe you don’t need Buck BUT IF Durant ever goes down…i’d say you’re looking pretty thin in the qb. dept. …You better pray your no 1 stays healthy…

lol, man, rider fans are no different than bomber fans, the backup will be god until he plays a meaningful game, pre-season? lol, who cares, congrats he completed passes against people who arent in the league anymore. Like man, i get the enthusiasm, i understand the wanting to believe but b4 saying he’s gonna be a “star on the rise”, maybe see what he does against you know, guys who arent working at walmart right now.

I would definetely not bring him back for next season or start him again this season but I think I may wait until the end of the season before i would make that decision. He could really be an excellent change of pace back up QB. in a game where your Offense is just stalled and the game plan is not working he could possibily come in and do somehting crazy to pull of a win but it would be right back to the Bench.
I do not think that he would be confortable with that role with the bombers but somewhere else he may. H e just does not have the stamina for a starting QB but could be a valued back up.
Unless they need to open up some cap space for some signing this season I would wait until after the season to release him at least.

If Brink keeps playing well, it will make Buck easier to release. The Bombers are not paying Buck to back up. He would be released out right and Elliot would back up. If Brink struggles against Montreal, Buck will be starting vs Hamilton or the game after for sure.
