Well, good on him for taking less

No. That makes the deal make more sense. Nichols is better, and didn't just sign a new contract, and is still making more.

He definitely started 1 game. It was the final Reg season.

TO still has a decent wr core. But I agree, AJ was a main piece of the puzzle for that o and their Defence likely won't be able to bail them out like they did so many times last year. Will be interesting to watch how Kelly deals with some regular adversity.

With all due respect, there are not 15 RTs that are better than Hardwick. That's ridiculous to even suggest. He's top 3 for sure. It's not his ability that's the problem really. When he's on, hes one of the best. It's his age and potential for declining play that makes the contract crazy.

He played on it last year.

That's brutal about Richmond.....

It's hi for DBs. But not crazy.

Honestly 135k per year doesn't seem like that bad of a deal for Houston.

You think they go 8-0 to start the year?

This about where I'd thought hed sign. Figured it be in TO cause I see Dalton getting close to 300k. And thought that would be the preference. I love that Brady is back. Calms my nerves about protecting Zach. They idea that "we've gotten worse" is absolutely stupid. No one's knows how good or bad this team will be until the end of camp at the very earliest and likely 6-8 weeks after that. I still say it's harder to replace Schoen than Brady. Glad he's back. Hopefully we make it a 2 for Tuesday!!!

To be fair, we also played Harris ball. Let's not pretend this team has focused on the run only for Brady. I'm sure it wouldn't have changed if someone else was getting the ball this year.

I figured there would be losses along the OL. And I'm glad they stayed with the GOAT. I would have been more upset losing Richmond than I am with losing Hardrick. I know...potential over experience. But they had to get younger eventually. This move makes sense for everyone imo.

Who's upset?

I honestly think Riders will be disappointed.

Not really. It was to make this "legal". Before tampering was introduced, this exact thing happened....but was technically not allowed

Fajardo had a couple decent drives and made the throw of his life on the last play. Otherwise their Defense did the heavy lifting in every playoff game for them.

They could. Very similar to the 2019 bomber team. But with less talent on Offense.

Because he's generally covering the #1 or the #2. He can play every position including Sam and safety. And do it well. He is also a.solid open field tackler and can bring the lumber. Not to mention his ability on the blitz. I'd take him over Houston in a heart beat.

Not by a long shot.

Honestly I'd prefer going with 2 rookies. If we're paying AJ and another, we might as well pay Brady. My guess is TO or maybe more likely MTL.

We would have to, cause Ouellette won't Stat healthy

Can you also tell us the scores for week 1?

His flame started turning to a ember well before that.
