Booch

but really tho...why would Demski want to play in that market...basically anonymously....cause Andrew is there..as opposed to being the toast of his town....highly recognized and in a first rate stadium..organization and atmosphere....and only way I see that happening is if T.O offers stupid money and then they have to cut ways with other important pieces...Gittens is gonna wanna get paid too

we have unquestioned the best in the league....and not over paying anyone on it...there in is the rub thats allowed us to be successfull for yrs now...took B.C several years to climb out of that Chungh overpay...and Reilly contract....and their window was last yr...and it slammed shut on them....for now

this likely totally the reason....prob knows already, but wants to make it seem like he found out in the "tampering" window....and likely there already is a Bomber offer he happy with....but will just wait that 2 weeks out

yup..we prob had a max...but wouldnt go past to ruin other parts of the team and SMS balance...also nice to see the Riders tried...and were given the thanks but no thanks haha'

yup...close to home...and tho a nice have for us...we really dont need him at moment and would have ruined our SMS to try and make it work....we be just fine with Eli..Gray...Neuf and Dobson as our interior guys with Kolo as depth

Well based on how his foot and lower leg got rolled up over...I'd say no...as that would have took down anyone...and I was surprised he wasn't hurt worse...and the shoulder was hurt laying out for a crazy catch...much like how Lawler was hurt this yr...so I'd say no and more just bad luck

hell yeah it is

when he did get that full game in...looked good...has all the metrics...and plays hard...also plays teams, so could be a valuable player...and like they say...you cant teach that size and he has good hands...even had that rep in NFL camps...You saw how lethal he can be in red zone production

Was just spitballin' numbers..as wasnt sure where he was....he didnt make list of top paid...so was under 130k last year as that was lowest that was published...so he may have been just at or around 100k...so a bump for him won't be that big....also he signed latish last yr as well...Feb 2nd...likely after he got what other teams considered on opn market in tampering window

50% of his rushes were either 1st downs...or were first downs or 2nd and short...I'd say thats sucessful runs

targets are misleading when they not catcheable balls...or hugly contested like most were...wasnt a case of droppsies

He does more than yards tho...like others mentioned...also if u look at last yr..basically ignored for first 6 games...0 TDs..about 160 yards...yet he finished with 9 TDs and 779 yards...and many clutch grabs along way...and in the playoffs last 3 yrs...dude gets it done when targeted...I'd say he is in the 125...135k range

If Demski is signed....and fully expect it...And Schoen returns I would be okay with Ellingson comes back at a team friendly deal...but only if we retain those top 2 mentioned....but if it's at the expense of Bailey...whom is very underrated and a key piece then it's a hard pass...wondering if he is waiting for the tamper window to see his open market value so he has a number to give the Bombers...I believe he signed late last yr too....so if he returns I'm more tan fine with Demski, Woli and Bolo as Canadian's and Schoen, Bailey and one of the very intriguing guys we have under contract...I'm looking at you Agudosi and Helliegh...may have spelled that wrong

yeah....and even if he did wait to F.A...he still would have signed in Ham...That Ball less guy is just a turd paid by the Riders...much like most on RF.com....Interesting to see who they trot out as starter this summer...and how long it takes for them to be pounded into Drew Willy 2.0

hahaha....Hamilton nailed it

but...but...but... i doubt he is back...I think he was more a need with experience with Hansen out ans Jeffcoat basically battling and playing with injury all yr that O-line and DB depth is impressive....

Poor Fool come to mind ahahaha

Vaughters....nice re-sign by CGY....Dudes a stud...well was....guess we will see if he still has it but my guess is 100%

YEAH....Ham has all the bargaining power if they choose to trade him....guarantee they won't release him...not until after TC if they do...as they are not on hook for any of his salary yet, and if he was paid a bonus for this yr, he obviously already has it...or it was paid part into 2022....not sure the structure of his deal so just speculation...Only way I see him moved before free-agency is if Sask makes a trade offer too stupid to turn down...and that prob what it will take. Ham banking on Shitz as the defacto number 2 is a risk too....as he is kind of a injury magnet, and isn't a proven starter caliber kind of QB to hitch a wagon to....Evans...warts and all is more a guy you could rely on..as he has shown he is capable...that is if all is going well...In Sask it wont be...and I see a melt down from him....I bet he sees it too...and likely wants no part of it

when you desperate tho...u overpay...and why woud they release him...they can keep him right through camp with no hit really to the cap other than if he has a bonus...but it would have prob been paid out already in Jan...so really....no reason to release, and what if BLM gets hurt in camp?...be ultra dumb to cut him free when u control him right now...and u know there is a desperate team...and one that is prob dying to try an appease its fan base

thing is too...Evans isnt a free agent....so they would have to trade for him...and Sask being desperate Ham can right rape em'....that being said Ham may want some stability/insurance behind Mitchell....so a restructure of Evans could be done, or they just make it work...Evans may want to stay there and get back into the tandem thing like before...and maybe learn how to be a pro from BLM as opposed to going to Sask and that shitshow of a joke right now...conceivably the Riders could be trotting out a Shiltz/Faj combo...or a Shiltz/Fine combo...either of which would be just glorious hahaha...cause really...what else is there now for them??

prob not much seeing as Mitchell in Edm did essentially that

but gosh they really tried hard....practiced great all week lol same...I was figuring maaaaybe 400k should be his ceiling....overpay if u ask me last hope for a legit starter...and he isnt legit yet....I'd laugh if he went to B.C and was a 1-2 punch with the Vaj...as that seems to be the only way his fragile psychie seems to have a half decn amount of success...knowing he isnt the "guy"

no doubt Kyle will let him go after the fact if something comes up....and they also know what they have to deal with for 2023 if nobody signs him down south....that being said...maybe they negotiate and extension...new deal up here if he gets no legit chances down south....and by that I mean an actual chance...not just a camp invite basically fighting to "maybe" get pr's...he's too old to develop now in NFL metrics...so he needs to go down and shoot the lights out and earn a roster spot where he gets reps in games....and thats a long shot for him...but a bonus for us and the CFL if he sticks here

a.k.a basically means the hell I was gonna go to Sask hahaha
