It's also relative too... Ouellette is easily the #2 back on the board right now... let's say Sask is planning to pay him 200... then 230 seems like decent value for Brady
Ya curious to see what Ouellette is getting. BO is definitely worth 15% more for passport alone.

Looking forward to Brady playing bully ball.
If ZC is slowing down like many of us think he is, then the run game becomes that much more important.

I don’t put much stock in any thing farhan says. Seems higher than I’d expect. Will wait and see the hard/soft numbers eventually.
I hope with Brady back that we commit to splitting Carries and use him wisely. Use a di change of pace back for 7/8 touches a game and don’t have 90% of our runs in the first 6 minutes and last 10.
No reason we can't do that. Maybe don't roster an American FB?!>!?!?!!
Hope one of the new guys jumps of the page.

Love Brady as a player. Don't love the price but it is what it is.
Strev and BO should be able to run away with a lot of games.
Hope Schoen can still be brought back. He's a real special player.

Does anyone know why Evan Holm is not listed as a FA?
Don't think he is one

I hope you are right. We can pretty effectively replace Brady's output in FA or recruiting. Schoen's are extremely hard to find anywhere.
Schoen is an extremely special player. His connection with Zach can't be overstated either. Would be much harder to replace than any RB.

Spending roughly $800,000 k on QB's and roughly 14% of the salary cap
No way to avoid that really with ZC at $600K

Kongbo would be a nice rotational guy over the Bennett we currently have.
Wouldn't want him pegged as a starter though.

The Riders can't be dumb enough to roll with the same 3 QB lineup that failed them badly last season, by hoping for a better result this season. If Harris goes down again early, they are hooped.
Can't they?

We have them. Both guys got stashed on the one game IR so they did not finish the season on the PR.
Great, thanks for digging that up!
Looking forward to seeing those guys progress.

Again, we have Haba and Fox, who can fix a lot of problems..... IF they can see the field.
Do we still have them? Finished the season on the PR, for FA unless re-signed.

Princess Auto Stadium is a terrible name, but so was Investor's Group Field. So whatever.

Looks like Kongbo might shake loose. Due a bonus Feb. 1

Barriere has incredible tools that match his nutty college numbers almost 14k passing yards, 121tds 29 ints, almost 1600 rush yards and 22 rush tds. (Broke Nichols passing yards record). First video was a pretty viral performance 600 yards 8tds.
4.7 40 but he’s faster than his time, and 38 inch vert while tossing 70+ yard bombs. His accuracy on deep balls is better than you’d expect with those raw tools too.
The catch, decision making, and size. He’s really more like 5’10 190.
.Seems like a good prospect. Same school that Nichols and Bo Levi went to right?

Your math is wonky, you cut maybe $320k in assets and you want to add at least $500-$600k in assets, considering they'd have to bring in another player to replace Brady.
It's not last year's salary you need to look at, it is this year's potential salary.
If BO is asking for $250K, savings are way more than 320

Good to get something since Brown was gone anyway.
Glad he's in Ott and not in division.

was hearing an offer of 2 yrs...175/190.....Or thats what our capped out dollar amount is....don't use as verbatim tho
I mentioned way back to expect to hear Strev news/talk in Jan....and really I think thats the smart move to replace Brown and Prukop with him, and actually go import at RB....Have a Canadian there serves us no real advantage ratio wise anymore, and hamstrings us by basically tripling that SMS hit....which goes a long way to re-up Schoen and Strev....and Buck licking his chops about the idea of ZC and Strev on filed at same time...DC's around league not so much
If I was Walters, and BO wants to play hardball is to snag Logan out of CGY as our RB...gives coverage in return game, and with our line, and how our receivers block, with his explosive home run speed, dude would light it up if we commit to run as per usual
For what it worth expect a Schoen return as well....
Like the idea of Strev and a much cheaper American RB.
Schoen returning would be huge. Everything he has shown so far looks like he'll be a perennial all-star.

I don't think there's a smoother receiver out there.
He's put up Stegallesq numbers his first two years. We need him back.

Happened right in front of me.
Legendary. One of several legendary plays that day.
That's the most frustrating thing about the last couple cups for me. One more play like that in either game and we win.
