yeah...we have money...it's bang for buck decisions, and where to allocate bigger buck's that aren't necessarily easier to replace. Thats why I see Schoen signed at expense of BO....unless there is a major shift occuring. And as @Mike said we shedding money in several areas....and with all the draft picks, ST guys on 3rd and fourth deal will be snipped, as well as a few vets. Just hope tho with our picks we pick actual guys who project to more than teams....that philosophy has hampered our over all depth of late, as we were flush with aged teamers, but ones who couldn't really do much more than that

ZC has taken a beating the last yr and for a good part of 2022....from being unscathed basically all his other time here...who was center when all that started?....a lot of issues from an O-line start from inside out, but may appear others are losing in their assignments....some here know what I talking about, and what is the common denominator in the poundings....

Gray is a better guard...can swing out to tackle and can take reps at center as they have practiced him there..Kolo is a one trick pony, and one who can't win the pony derby....Give Gray that money, as Eli should be the center which would relegate Kolo to 6th anyway...... dont like it...scram....and osh has a penchant for playing guys he likes...over guys who truly deserve it/or are better....believe to not believe it all you want but 140k for a guy who at best should be our 6th guy, and one who can only adequately play one spot is poor allocation of SMS....Nice subtle shot tho....not to be unexpected by the misinformed, and lacking certain knowledge I see tons of football players every year....coach and develop and Kolo as much as many here wanna deny it, is a very weak link....Just cause Osh plays him doesn't make it otherwise

knew this was a forgone conclusion...as I said expect it in Jan..well they waited to last day. Very economical price tag, and love the 1 yr deal as well, so as to revisit in the next off-seasn. People will be surprised at how different he is as a passer now, and being out from under Lapo here who stagnated him will be huge, and I know we are gonna see a lot of 2 QB packages this summer...good luck with that opposing defences. Schoen will be next, and best of the rest I bet will gauge what market has to offer now...tho I think we could see a Hardrick 1 yr deal sooner than later I think this as well puts the nail in the BO coffin unless he realizes that no market is being set, and fair value is his best interests....if not i think we pull a shocker and lock down Oullette...will gave same as BO for less, and has a bit more explosiveness to him as well

if we didnt eff up some roster decisions last yr, would be an augment and re-load...not saying this is a rebuild by any means, but what may be happening, or have to occur this yr should have been started already last year in all honesty Some odd early resigns this yr as well....is this an indicator as to who isn't gonna be a priority to come back?...guess we will see....Have a hunch we may see them let BO walk and Oullete replaces him and we flip the script there at a lower price, as we keep Schoen for 3 yrs....and add Strev

Schoen actually runs a mid 4.4...he's not pedestrian by any means. Knock on him was his walk on status, and some bizarre weaknesses that he has shown none of in the CFL was perceived as a poor route runner, and bad out of his breaks, and had poor hands and skills with ball....even questioned his football IQ and instincts Goes to show you how walk-ons are looked at and are behind the 8 -ball from the get go post College...

classic yup...was the big guy -
Regardless of who we put across from WJ this yr, if Osh continues the joke being Jackson on the roster...effectively eliminating the chance of any impact DE to get on the roster, then we will see more of the same, and games where our starters burn out, and have to take some plays off....Rotating in guys like A Bennett does nothing, and same with Thomas in the middle. If not thru free agency...the draft, or the use of another Canadian already on the roster to assume the role of blocking back for 6 to 9 reps a game and zero threat to get the ball, let alone doing anything with it....that a viable replacement is found...then thats a fail on so many levels. If you wanna go that route sign a big bruising "real" full back type straight outta the NCAA....Jackson at his age now, with his experience offers us absolutely nothing other than a cool story...he was horrible and out matched on defence when he got reps in garbage time, and his role on offence could be filled by literally anyone

same well here....he had 2 studs ahead of him B.C was a clusterfuck....Hammer makes odd personell decisions even more so than we do He would be great here in rotation, and allows us to remove a useless canadian off the roster as well...win win -

and may just happen not sure why you wouldnt be,,,,he flourished in this environment, and no reason to think he wouldn't again....A more than capable Canadian who can actually contribute in big ways in rotation, heavy rotation....Guys like Thomas...Schmeckle...Bennett...Briggs....cannot -

I'd take Oullette for 170k over BO if he asking for more...thats a easy decision...he's kill it behind our line and penchant to run -

he is effectively retired.....tho not official...he's done -
even then,,it shouldnt be....if there was a guy to hand a job to...Its Eli Imagine having Desjarlais...Eli and Neuf between the tackles??...thats a nasty assed group teams would hate to line up against....Dobson fro Gray will give us much the same.... No coaching staff worth spit looks at or uses PFF as any type of evaluation tool...trust me there

You nailed it on your comments....what/why osh seems to have this love for guys who aren't necessarily the best option baffles the mind...Kolo was by far the worst guy we had, and like you mentioned...for someone who knows what they are actually watching, and can pick up easily what they are doing...it's very obvious to see....just a head scratcher if he is again...handed the role....It better be an outright competition...in multiple positions this year as we have seen in last 2 yrs that when the chips need to be placed all in during the last hand...we flopped bad...and a lot was due to personell...and odd coaching decisions.. Even as depth he is a poor choice as your 6th...cant kick outside, and as a guard he's geteaten up and shat out...over and over and a good likelyhood he would be the guy at faukt for ZC really getting pummeled...thelast yr and a bit ZC has taken a pummeling and it can be directly linked to the center, even tho the average fan won't see it Getting worried already that we are gonna bring back way too many guys we shouldn't

Not understanding this move...weakest of the bunch, and why block younger guys with a 31 yr old, unless they are saving bucks and are moving on from Gray,and putting ELI there with Dobson as the 6th?...Head scratcher as Eli is a better center than Guard, as well as better than Kolo....Or is this an Osh pining to his GM to lock up his fav's?...If Thomas is next...followed by Briggs...I gonna puke
