M.Silverback Posted December 12, 2019 Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 1 hour ago, Booch said: Zack is gonna have to I think accept the fact he is going to get a moderate upfront signing bonus...the 150 to 200k ones waved bye bye after last year, and a decent base with large play-time bonuses...protects his team, and gets him paid well if he can stay on the field..any team that gives him 200k again before the first snap of the season and then hard money totaling 250 to 350k more as the base salary spread over the season should have their G.M shot Agree. I'd say the same thing for Nichols contract. At his age, modest resume, and coming off throwing shoulder surgery. Whoever signs him should (key word) give him a modest contract with incentives. Signing him for $500K base salary or more per year is a fireable offence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's unlikely there will be any teams looking to throw a wad of cash at him so he is simply not ruling anything out. As he should. If Toronto comes calling for him with a dollar number in the same neighborhood as us, and I doubt Walters will offer him much, he will go there. Maybe Collaros, like Neuf, wasn't really injured for most of the season. Just on the IR to get the younger players playing time and to save SMS. Maybe he isn't an injury issue at all. Heck.. maybe being injury prone isn't a real thing at all. 😂🤣😂 Jesse and GCJenks 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In defence of Nichols, he was 7-2 when he went down, and it has been posted here that he would have won the grey cup if he played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M.O.A.B. Posted December 12, 2019 Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 So, Mtl, BC, Ott and Edm have figured out their HC position. Bombers haven't announced any extension yet for O'Shea. And still there's some rumor coming out of Tor linking O'Shea on their HC position. Just get it done now Bombers. What's the wait? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpeedFlex27 Posted December 12, 2019 Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 We need some kind of RFA for younger players under 30. The older guys 30 & up should still be unrestricted. rebusrankin and Tracker 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The older guys 30 & up should still be unrestricted. I am of the opinion that the massive changes in player personnel makes it difficult for fans to identify year to year with a team. There has to be some sort of compromise between losing half a roster off season and players being held hostage. Fatty Liver and Brandon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milanovich's HC record with the Argos was 43W-47L over 5 full seasons, and that was with Ricky Ray, who he could not protect properly and lost repeatedly to season ending injury after absorbing brutal bone-breaking sacks. Should we blame Milanovich? Definitely. Edited December 12, 2019 by Throw Long Bannatyne Mark F, Geebrr and bigg jay 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That GC he won in TO, he was surrounded by the best staff in recent memory. Without that, I'm curious to see what he can do. He'll be a calmer influence on the sideline than Maas (who isn't?) and will likely be a very good fit with Harris.......but outside of that.................
