    Do we think Haba plays this year? He seemed to look awfully good when he filled in for Jeffcoat last year if I remember correctly.

    I’m risking hyperbole but I think Kyle Walters is a top 5 GM in the history of the league, arguably the greatest.

    Brady, Dalton, and strevy could've all made a lot more money for the same roles they took but going else where.
     Dalton was woli's new bff and room mate. Strevy his old one, and the best man thing at the wedding. They are going to have to figure out a way to have all 3 share a room next year.

    How about a little kumbaya, shall we? After that's done, we can get back to usual MBB activities like yelling about Damien Jackson and game day roster management?

    The exact same argument can be made for paying Schoen big dollars. His cap hit would hamstring us even more than Brady in terms of not getting other pieces. Brady’s increase is $115,000 over his last contract. Schoen could be as much as $230,000. And replacing an elite Canadian who put up 1,500 yards, even as a running back, may not be that much easier than replacing a starting American receiver. We already have one under contract in Lawler.

    Impossible to truly know if other backs could match Brady’s numbers, but I will offer two things:
    1. If we were debating 1,200 yards vs 1,150 or even 1,000 I might buy that. But 1,500 yards is rarified air (as is 2,000 yards from scrimmage) and I think people being irked about Brady’s tweet fuelled a lot of downgrading about how good his year was. 
    2. The only real fair comparable if we want to say anyone could match Brady’s numbers with this o-line is to look at the last guy who played behind this o-line. Andrew Harris never put up the numbers Brady did last year, and people want him on our Ring of Honour. Put me in the camp that says Brady, especially as a Canadian ratio-breaker, would not have been easily replaced.

    **** it - if that is what Hardrick, Thurman, and  Houston are making the Brady contract is super fair. 
     
    I’ve changed my mind. 
     
    Also - I have also been a fan of Davis II - he is due for a real dominant season IMO.

    Beyond pumped! Best RB in the league, great human being, and local hometown boy too.   Those type of guys just don’t come along often.   
    Wouldn’t surprise me at all if it’s cheaper than we’re all expecting too.   
    Bet they still sign Schoen too, hoping Walters finds a way to work his magic!

    230 for Brady is less than or about equal to what yoshi got. That’s fair. I’m happy to have Brady back. He’s a pretty valuable player for us. Could imagine Strev and Brady running ppl over in the 4th quarter to finish games.

    No issue with the money at all. Counts for the ratio, best at his position by far. Players of his talent coupled with the passport do not grow on trees. Over the last 20 years, we're talking Jon Cornish and Andrew Harris. End of list.
    Worth every penny.

    When was Harris the entire offense in BC when he got paid that money?
    Brady just had 2016 yards from scrimmage and a 5.9 YPC with 13 touchdowns. I know nostalgia is a thing, but that’s a more productive season than Andrew Harris has ever had.

    wayy too much....not happy with that turn of events...He better put up 1800 yards and over 500 receiving and solve the fumbles for that....back up the re-setting the market narrative and earn your bags
