“I’ve yet to play in an offence, and this is my 13th year in the league, that has the capabilities of this offence,’’ said Green. “With that being said I’m happy to be part of it and I’m looking forward to what it can bring. We have so many limitless options.”

With Jacques Chapdelaine in charge of the unit as its offensive co-ordinator, the Argos are planning to air it out and take shots down the field.

Green’s first year in Toronto would see the Argos win a Grey Cup championship, but then came last season’s four-win debacle.

When they won, the Argos had DeVier Posey line up at the boundary wideout with Green inside at slotback.

Posey parlayed his MVP performance in the Grey Cup with a job in Baltimore for the NFL’s Ravens.

When he was released, Posey decided to sign with B.C.

In his absence, the Argos could not find a player remotely close.

But with Derel Walker in the fold, the Argos have that much-coveted deep threat and legitimate playmaker.

Walker dropped a ball in last Thursday’s pre-season opener, but would make amends by hauling in a touchdown.

Green was his normal spectacular self, looking very much comfortable with the new offence.

With Walker by his side, the days of Green getting double-covered or bracketed would appear to be over.

“Derel Walker is Derel Walker,’’ said Green. “From the first day he stepped on the field in this league he made his presence felt. To have another guy on the outside like that on this team, it’s going to open things up and not to mention Armanti (Edwards) being the most under-rated receiver in the league.
