That’s pretty awesome. Looks like 25k off the cap plus however they may have worked that bonus with being against the bonus cap and this year/last year.

I would say atleast 99.95% of them yes 😛 though half were confused thinking it was about the leafs and the other half thought it was the raps/jays we talked about.

I’ve heard a few Argos fans hoping/theorizing that they will steal hall from us.

I agree. Maybe offence gets more money because it does sell more seats. But man some of our best moves going back to the beginning of the mafia is under valued dl pick ups.

Wow that’s pretty nutty. I wonder if jones knows the bonus is due xD instantly cut. It’s kind of wild the difference in pay between o and d. Certainly easier to find very good imp dl than ni WRs. But man I feel like the dl makes you better. I do have a considerable defensive bias in terms of win share though.

It’s true, the trade makes roster sense for the Argos. Does look like they are losing guys in fa which is expected. I really like the trade for the Argos. The financial savings might also be a real factor for Edmonton too. Mbts pay has to be cleared and ceresna was one of the top dl in terms of pay.

When he’s the no1 target down field and woli is the 5th he’s more productive. Imo if they both got the same offensive role I think woli would out perform him. And he has the versatility to be a great blocker at the line or down field. Cgjr is a good wr idk who id compare him to. Demski is tough because he’s a converted rb who could play rb in the cfl from all we’ve seen. He’s the best jet motion guy in the league, the best blocker down field, and a great wr. Idk who compares skill wise to Demski.

I thought the value was interesting as well. Cgjr was disappointing last year. Ceresna is in the top tier of dts in the league. Would I trade woli for him?(if he wasn’t a pending fa) yeah I would. And I love woli. I’d probably trade any of our ni ol Cept Eli maybe Dobson too. I’d trade Kramdi, and any one of our ni defensive guys. I wonder if this is edm being crazy, tor selling high on gittens, or if this is the value right now for top end dts and ni starters. I mean if that’s his value, what would Brady be worth in a trade?

That’d be tight. Dl! That’ll fix the riders! Hahaha! I mean it was their weakness last year right lol.

Thats true. Though honestly ratio breaking young nis have brought silly money too. Like desjarlais. Though he’s the one guy I wish we would’ve over paid for now. Or it’s just his constant over confidence in his ability to replace dl. To me it’s more interesting that Toronto has gone after ceresna. Excellent dl for sure but they are deep and have a bunch of front 7 free agents. Makes me think they expect to lose multiple guys.

If fa starts and one or both aren’t under contract it sounds like walters will pursue replacements with those dollars rather than wait and hope they return. I’d wait on schoen and not on Brady.

And start your training when you’re about 8. become an under water off shore welder. You can make similar money to what Dru brown is going to get for less than full time work. Or a regional head of sales. You can be done in a few years and save the middle school high school and college years.

Not likely in that stage no. Contender development is usually long and multi staged. Then a team like the ALs fluke into a ship lol.

It’s true. If you are building a team I think it’s much easier to build around a cheap running qb and hope to find a guy who can carry you to wins with his arm down the road. Once you lock in that contract and have a reasonable back up your clock is running and it’s late in the evening. I think the fact that we had to win with D, turn overs, teams, and running game to start with allowed us to progress into a dynasty. I’m talking pre Nichols, then Nichols then post Nichols, we slowly moved up from a team that had to win with every thing but qb, to a team that could manage the game to a team that could dominate. When you start around offence I don’t think you ever develop that defensive attitude of expecting to have to win the game every week instead of just not losing it. Qb is the most important position, but it’s not a head of any unit on the team, and the strength of it diminishes faster than any other position. Put prime flutie on our worst teams in the past 20 years and you have a terrible team and an injured flutie. Put this ol in their prime on it and they’ll find a qb who can game manage. I mean that coat has probably seen more action than the beds in a motley Crüe tour bus too. I’d put it on a mannequin with the jeans cowboy hat/boots no shirt and a fake beard behind 4 inches of glass in the bomber store.

We’ve seen lots of teams splurge on QBs and cheap out on ol etc doesnt work. That’s exactly what I was hoping to hear from jy I hope we see it too.

Fair question. He was faster more than quick, and honestly had/has good athleticism for a wr. Athletically, as a mobile qb in the cfl I think he’s gonna be a beast. Decision making, style of offence, and reading were in shambles with plops offence before he left. I think the time off will be beneficial. I think he needed the reset mentally. Even athletically he left with a broken ankle actually too. I think it’s much more of an issue at positions like de, line in general and ball handlers. People put too much importance on qbing. But it does carry a lot of responsibility. But people hate on blink for kgs injury, turned on lawler for not keeping up his insane pace late in the season etc. if lawler Brady etc we’re QBs they’d a been run outta town long ago. they do. Every position is heavily dependent on other positions. The team aspect of football is really under rated. Every great team requires soo much selfless play at various positions like what Demski and Bailey do for our off.

People are soo fast to turn on every other position when they don’t see exactly the production they expect but QBs get an instant pass if the team wins enough games. It’s nuts. People have turned on wj, jj, biggie, Brady etc for far less than piss poor play off/gc performances.

I wouldn’t cut Zach, he could be traded for a good bit of value. Won’t happen, but that’s what I’d do. That is the best case scenario when moving on from a guy like Zach. If we go imp rb id love to see us bring in a real big one. Some one in the range of 240lbs running a high 4.5 low 4.6. Some good old Mike sellers style trucking of blockers.

This is woli right now

Man that’d be fantastic. It’s interesting to me how brown seems ready and in line for a shot, but no one seems to be interested in going after him. As If every one thinks they will lose the spree and are just moving on. At this point edm, ssk, bc, wpg, ham, ott, mtl, and tor are locked in at starting qb. Calgary is 90% in too. Half the teams are locked in at back up qb with now strevy coming back too. At this rate brown is going to be looking at another back up spot. If I was him I’d look for a 1 year deal at a decent rate maybe with incentives and hope next year people move on from the ancient decrepit husks of QBs like blm.

Pretty soon if he wants to have the chance to be at the reigns of his own team he will have to look at the xfl 4.0.

Teams like bc and Hamilton have been over paying and giving up on RBs back and forth. Ott, ssk, edm too. Yeah, honestly the home run ability of an imp rb would be nuts too. but I don’t expect it to happen. Im not on the instatwittergrams and I greatly appreciate when people post news stuffs from the reputable guys. But honestly life as a sports fan is way better removed from athletes social media.

You could go to Texas, Florida, Georgia, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, Alabama, either Carolina, Arizona, Maryland, or Tennessee and have a free agent camp for RBs, and get 5 nfl roster quality players, 2-3 starter to star calibre cfl RBs, and 0-1 nfl star quality RBs. Seriously. The main issue will be how many can cross the border, will do the work to come up here, are willing to pay the taxes and actually come up. Cut those numbers in half for those guys, and you still have 60+ available guys under 26/27 with reasonable to minimal wear. Rb is that deep currently. Also in the cfl basically all style of back are viable. cut back runner, scat back, power back you name it. Sub par top gear? Not a prohibitive factor. Probably. I wonder what fair price is though.

Cfl can’t even manage regular in season stats for 3/4 of the year lol

I don’t put him in the top tier at all. I have him as a good established guy but behind the elite tier and the second tier of young upstarts that break out every year. I do agree that browns market is quickly shrinking though. it wasn’t as much about maier as it was about blm being toast. But maier isn’t a guy I’d want to have as qb1 on my team. Ooof. interesting. More punts? Same danger but for less guys. Idk how they are gonna do it with out making it a gong show.
