    Thomas as full-time starter would hinder us...especially if we lose Willie...he's fine as a rotational piece...but thats about it Maybe Nevis and team are too far apart in salary..so he is going to see what he can get, maybe we are going National there and targeting Laing...Wynn...maybe something outta the blue...guess we will see...that being said if we legit are gonna toss money at Willie...someone who was due to make some significant money had to be clipped Maybe we go quasi 3-4..With Richardson in the Nose..Jeffcoat and McCallister at the ends and Willie plays..wherever...try and match up for that...be an O-line nightmare

    must be looking to double dip his final yr playing as pay is pathetic to jump to from what he could make XFL salary structure Average salary: $55,000 Bi-weekly paycheck: $2,080 Activation fee: $1,685 Victory bonus: $2,222 A memo sent from the XFL to agents explained the details of how they'd be paid. Players will be paid on a bi-weekly basis with a base paycheck of $2,080. If they are active for a game they will receive a bonus (activation fee) of $1,685. If their team wins they get an extra bonus of $2,222. According to the memo sent by the league to agents it says "a player may earn up to $4,947 per game week." That's taking into account half of the base paycheck ($1,040), the activation fee and the victory bonus. Contracts for players in the XFL this season start from Dec. 3, 2019 to May 31, 2020 if they remain in the league for the full season.

    i don't think a 50k salary is a raise...more like a 100k drop

    not to mention that o-line looks horrible, and thats witha couple guys still unsigned...and the backup depth there is a bunch of nothings 36 yr old end coming off surgery...no canadian reciever depth..or proven starters to be seen...yup...no holes there
  5. Booch
    Odd...wonder why he wants to go play for peanuts
  6. Booch
    Willie is gonna sign here for 2 years....265k hard cash this year...150k upfront...and an incentive tossed in to make it closer to 285k

    Majority of casual sports fans don't/won't even know who Willie is..let alone care...Heck the Argo's themselves are an unknown...the only excited people are the couple thousand actual fans who know football there and realize the talent he is and what he could do...and the couple other thousand who know he is a big name...and thats about it and are just jumping on the band wagon right now Couple more cryptic things to me that "may" mean he is re-upping are he said via twitter he would say today where he was signing if he got 7000 followers...well today he can only say he is re-upping in WPG...He can't say anything other than that Also his one tweet started off as "firstly I'd like to thank T.O and Hamilton" usually a "but I choose elsewhere" follows that...that's my take on this whole circus...we shall see And u can bet his brothers on the Bombers have been in his ear too...dudes he is really close to, and seeing others re-up...several for less....I bet he wants to be part of that too...and the repeat...Especially in Bomber colors in Regina...He'd love that

    NBA season is over before CFL one starts...it's a non issue anyway because I highly doubt that is a bigtime thing swaying him anyway...
  9. Booch
    they may...but they would obviosly have to have a limit on how they can go moreso than T.O and WPG...They have a lot of $$ tied up in 5-6 guys
  10. Booch
    Don't get me wrong..he did....in 3 high pressure games, but he was the back-up for a reason...great depth now tho
  11. Booch
    well...Couture was the starter all year...and was very good...Speller was a fill in and never the longterm answer there...Eli will be eventually...and never a bad thing to have 5-6 National o-lineman who are starter quality
  12. Booch
    possibly setting up for a trade...who tho?..I can't see Gray being traded being local kid with huge upside still..Couture I know they really like and from sounds of it signed for a team friendly SMS...Most likely guy is Speller I think...nice audition in the play-offs showing he can handle center as well as guard...on a cheap salary at moment so very attractive get for someone...Maybe T.O Eli I doubt they move either as he is heir apparent to center at some point
  13. Booch
    Interesting....shows again what the power of a good room and being treated well does for a team eh? C'mon Willie..make that another part of the trend
  14. Booch
    wow...didn't see us extending Couture....that leaves us really stacked and deep on the o-line....too many guys to keep tho...with Him..Gray..Speller..Desjarlais and Neufeld along with ELI thats a lot of National depth

    Our group is good.. adequate but adding just one legit game breaker to it would make it bordering on deadly. Adam's is great value at 140k to compliment a Posey or Walker..neither of whom I think exceed 240k this yr Daniel's is a cheaper option..and just as big play so he could be an option but I really like Rhymes..size..measurables and considering what he did in **** show Ottawa.. with no QB.. no real guidance for majority of season in coaches and lack of coordinator..just imagine him in a sound system..like ours I also hope we find a way to roster Lucky as well and actually utilize him properly..people yap about him not being a good route runner..poor hands..all basically bs claims...I think he only had 1 bad drop last yr..and had a bunch of times behind coverage where our qbs couldn't connect. Use him to stretch defences a lot..and the mix in some hitches..screens..a sluggo here and there..crossers as he will have such a cushion from going deep a d pushing coverage downfield cause they need to give him that as he can cut on a fine and make moves at speed..tough to defend

    Jeffcoat is pretty darn good..and always shows up in big games...plus is a buddy of Willie..they train together even before Willie landed in wpg
  17. Booch
    There still has been no mention of any actual firm numbers..all is speculative..and the beauty part is we dont have to declare a number..so we gotta be in drivers seat u would think...and Willie must be seeing we retained most of the team..so a repeat or at least deep playoff success has to be appealing to him
  18. Booch
    What was the shout out
  19. Booch
    Has to..
  20. Booch
    So if they sign Davis in the low to mid 200's..cant see Jefferson there..with him and Laurent and Willie that be pushing close to 800k for 3 dlineman...
  21. Booch
    So apparently Adam's turned down more from Ottawa to stay in the Peg..shows what a quality organization and team concept will do for you..props to Darvin too...solid Hopefully Willie does the same again
  22. Booch
    Or not..Darvin possibly had no desire to go there..so could have said gimme something fair and works and I'm back...I don't think he had any intentions of leaving if we still wanted him
  23. Booch
    Never heard he did...I dont tho..no real purpose or benefit in my mind..we got guys who can do what he does
  24. Booch
    Yeah..watch the CFL wired..he was huge in that game rattling them..also had several key blocks..keep him healthy with a QB who can chick easily he gets 1100 yards or more and 7-10 tds again
  25. Booch
    Totally like this..hugely underrated and is a big time leader and respected in the room. Makes one think he signed for a mutual pleasing deal too...and we can allocate some extra funds to Willie if need be. I think Rhymes may be a target..to battle with new guys and Bailey for the 3rd import spot..
