bustamente Posted February 3, 2022 Report Share Posted February 3, 2022 Re signing here is very simple, if you want to be a winner sign with the Bombers if you want to be a loser sign with whichever team gives you the most money. Either way you'll have your money and we will have another cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracker Posted February 3, 2022 Report Share Posted February 3, 2022 So far it looks like the defence will be set soon and even better than last year, given the continuity. The only possible fly in the ointment might be Richie Hall's health. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geebrr Posted February 3, 2022 Report Share Posted February 3, 2022 Yeah, I think it was @Colin Unger who mentioned Sayles had better production than a lot of "name" guys this year stats wise. I think he is more of a QB pressure guy than a run stopper, but love what Sayles has done so far too. Noeller, Bigblue204 and Piggy 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't need to offer Lawler a 230k contract to beat the BC offer. BC offer...250k + 0 playoff dollars = 250k Winnipeg....200k + 30k playoff money = 230k 250k-230k = 20k ...and 3DN stated that they think playoff money is actually going up over that this year. There....you happy? I DDG'd (DuckDuckGo'd) for 5 Minutes and couldn't come up with where I found the 20K number. I thought it was in Twitter or 3downnation, but no luck, so I am apologising for using 20K. Now, on to this post... You're assuming BC doesn't make the playoffs which may or may not be a good assumption. Your're assuming the Winnipeg comes in first ($3400), wins the division playoff ($3600), and the Grey Cup ($16,000), which comes to $23,000 (Numbers from: https://cfldb.ca/faq/compensation/ and from the 2019 CBA). Any or all of those assumptions may or may not be good assumptions. Is the extra $7000 is coming from your assumption of how much the playoff money is going up? $250K with a chance at playoff money is more than 200K with an almost guarantee of making the playoffs which is $3400. Oh Yah! I almost forgot. I didn't say that players were going to see who was going to pay them $21K more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booch Posted February 3, 2022 Report Share Posted February 3, 2022 Sayles had great stats .and was very effective. I also assume they will make stove the best offer they can...and see where it stands...all we can do...hope he back...cause if he is we will be lights out again ..even without the way this shaking out we are gonna be anyway. Maybe we can steal micah Johnson cheaper than stove...now wouldn't that piss off our green neighbors Fred C Dobbs, Geebrr, Piggy 1 and 2 others 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piggy 1 Posted February 3, 2022 Report Share Posted February 3, 2022 I gotta admit ,I'm a tad concerned on the RB front. Can anybody give me anything on whats going on there? Imo ,I'd take Augustine over Oliviera ,IF, i had to lose anybody. I cant see AH going anywhere though...just taking to darn long for my liking. And did I read ,right earlier today? Lawler took BC's offer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't realize Johnny was nearing his 30s,if Augustine and Oliviera were same age I would've taken Johnny first but now I understand why he's a little easier of a decision in the end.

I said the same thing. Same age I’d take August over Olive. But they are pretty close skill wise and I think Oliviera still hasn’t hit his full potential. I’d like both back if we can though. Another year together will really help Him grow I think. Piggy 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodyT Posted February 3, 2022 Report Share Posted February 3, 2022 (edited) Any chance Andrew could be even a slight bit butt hurt about not being valued by the club, and in some regards the fans the same as he was in years past? I think it's a long shot but I wouldn't totally rule out him signing else where for one last pay day. I could see a team taking a chance on a one year worth 170-200 k. Good marketability and Canadian game breaker. Winnipeg would not entertain that anymore imo He was top notch when he was playing. One year with injuries doesn't mean that's going to repeat.

All of his business is in town and he's leaning on his name to build it. The academy would be fine without him but it thrives with him here. Plus he has his fingers in other pies too. I think Harris is a full partner in this deal. I think he's been working with Walters. Just my opinion based on how he and the team operate.

He’s only 28 and hardly has any mileage on his body. The biggest factor for running backs wearing down isn’t usually age it’s usage/mileage over the year. I just can’t help but love Agustine’s skill set. He’s so fast and quick. I would still rather go with One of Harris/Oliveria and Augustine because of the different styles.
