Welcome back Dalton 

Now hearing DB Demerio Houston has agreed in principle to a two-year deal with Calgary that has a total guaranteed figure exceeding $275k, making him one of the league’s highest-paid defensive backs.
 
what in the actual **** lol
Actually been a fan of his for a while

Jeff Hamilton reporting Brady took less to stay in Winnipeg and talked 250k+ with other teams.

hoping BOLO is just seeing what the offers are, and then will resign here once his value is determined...would hate to lose him after developing him the past several yrs...dude has all the tools...he just needs the opportunity

I think with Strev in the fold to fill in the gaps of what ZC doesn't bring to the table, ZC is more consistent in delivering this coming season.
We're looking good heading into 2024 with this QB tandem.
Wouldn't take any other QB duo from the eight other teams over these guys.  

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.

Something that hasn't fully sunk in for me yet.... We're up by a TD with 5 mins left in the game... and now we send BRADY AND STREVELLER on to the field to close it out... good luck other team!

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.

If the market is the market, then it’s not an overpay. You’re too caught up on the individual numbers, man. Who cares? It’s a good day for us. Do you think you’re going to be in the stands in August surrounded by people celebrating a Brady TD thinking to yourself “arggggh that could’ve cost us $900 less!”
I still stand by that. But you’re right, we can all have opinions. The only thing I don’t like about this salary cap talk is that it’s an opinion based on absolutely nothing. We’re all just guessing. 

or a Mcrae, and don't give him a snap

Lol didn’t hear anyone say a word about Farhan being unreliable when the Hardrick numbers came out

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.

Conversely we had Brady in the Grey Cup but.you could reaaaaallly feel the absence of a healthy Schoen.

A Streveler and BO combo to run and grind out games in final 5 mins or so of a game tho will be a tough nut to swallow for some defenses now tho...and be very fun to watch

I really think there’s a notable absence of negotiations being held with the top receivers and I’m guessing it’s because everyone has realized paying 300k to a Lawler or Lewis doesn’t mean anything if you suck at QB.
My gut tells me right now that Schoen may have been hoping for an offer from Ottawa to go play with Dru, but now that it’s probably not coming, he’ll be back here at 260k-ish

I’m greedy I want Schoen back to

Good for Hardrick. Take the money while you still can. 

Well everyone going on about Richmond at tackle, but is gray maybe an option there?

Hardrick’s deal will pay him 230.5k in each season. 120k signing bonus. Makes him the highest paid 🇺🇸OL in @CFL. @CFLonTSN
 
LMFAO

I don’t hate that at all. Yoshi gets his cash, Riders get a diminishing asset, Drew Richmond gets a chance to play.

Don't think he is one
