The wasted money include as well: White Jr, Makonzo, Hagerty, among others.

I don't have an opinion one way or the other... I trust JY and the D coaches..... But... I thought Doug Brown had an interesting comment in a recent Pre Game Show when he said "the Bombers going from Bighill to Jones reminds me of when we went from Barrin Simpson to Joe Lobendahn..." As in, Joe Lobendahn was a fine MACK but, there are very few Barring Simpsons (or Adam Bighills) in th world...

It's a ridiculous contract for a guy like Kiprizov, certainly but also the cap is going up and don't forget that what these guys make is a fraction of what the owners make. I'm not as "ATHLETES ARE ALL GREEDY PIGS!!" as some people. Careers are short... Take the money if you can get it. Having said that, this really fucks with where the bar is for guys like KConn and McJesus... Kiprizov is absolutely not worth this money.

Such a waste with J.Jones. Between him, Mitchell and Logan, we wasted a lot of free agency $. Tony Jones is an ok linebacker but not a guy who deserved a two year deal (yes, he's back for 2026)

Maybe, he may have also become a liability. Either way we'll never know

That contract is complete insanity....just give him the keys to the club and put his name down as an owner already....Where does it stop....AND don't forget the guys that buy the tix are going to end up paying for this guy....Just so much till the well runs dry and everyone is hooped

lol. I'm pretty sure that if some MBB poster were on the sidelines calling the shots, the rest of MBB would be pining for the good old days of Tim Burke...

There is a difference between a position not being a problem and being impactful. Tony Jones has a **** ton of tackles but I would say he's had 1 game where he was impactful. Wilson I'd say maaayyybbbbeee one game where he was impactful. We can do better and J.Jones likely would have but he never got more than 1 game (which did show a skilled player IMO)

I dont think Wheatfall is streaky. He comes off as more of a 1 trick pony. Defences figured out how to take him out of games and he hasnt been able to adjust.

We have no idea why he was signed or why he was released. Pretending otherwise is Twitter level conspiracy stuff. The LBs have not been an issue. J.Jones had some playing time and didnt light the world on fire. Sucks to see him go, but not worthy of panicking over it either.

Tackles, oh yay. I'd rather a linebacker make plays than tackles. So why sign Jones if he's as trash as you say? It still points to a disconnect between coach and gm.

T Jones is on the top two tacklers in the league so were lucky to have him. We signed JJones for insurance but since Woodbey has proven to be better

You’re delusional dude.

Or and here’s the crazy part. J Jones is being seriously overrated by people on here. Linebackers haven’t been an issue and with Woodbey and the cdn kids. Where’s the spot for another import linebacker. You guys say they don’t play enough DL but now you want the 700 linebackers on. Wild whacky stuff.

Even with J.Jones here T.Jones was never in danger of losing a spot. If the coach was so married to his guys at lb why even sign j.jones? That's the crazy part. Clearly the coach and gm are reading 2 different books at this point.

Arguable that the coaches always know more than we do- I cite the choices of O'Shea and Hogan.

And not hard on the eyes, either. (admittedly sexist comment).

With J. Jones being cut, this means that we will be stuck with him at MLB until either or O'Shea dies.

For cripes sake...You mean they've started moving them already...lol ...Tony Jones will have a hard time making anyones roster due to his age....Wilson..most likely

That’s a crazy contract for a team that probably doesn’t make the playoffs this year maybe not even next

he didn’t lose his job during a season, he was injured. Pickett and mcmannis was there when he was playing in 2023. His contract ended and they didn’t bring him back. That wasn’t the question though was it? So let’s put the goal post back, would kyrie or jones take reps from mcmannis or picket like Jones did, on any other team in the league? The answers no, they wouldn’t.

6 to 8 for sure. Probably closer to 6. I wonder who they decide to keep up now. Salo is rhd but has looked pretty strong. He’s waiver exempt tho. Ville and Stan are LHD. So is fleury who played with pionk a bit last year in the playoffs. Then you got Schenn and miller. Demelo Josh. Pionk Fleury. Schenn Stanley. Miller Ville. Samberg to IR. Salo directly to moose. But Salo prob deserves a few games if he keeps it up. Might be a nice compliment to Josh honestly sooner rather than later. Still think they might waive heinola tho. Not sure he gets picked up.

When’s the next lockout. Honestly. USA gonna go broke lol.

I’ll get standings updated tomorrow. Put Picks below.
