May want to revisit Wieneke skill set. He is 100% a deep ball guy who can go make the hard catches. I believe he had the #1 play in the 10 plays of the year with a fantastic deep ball catch. 

Is also from Minnesota, his parents drive to every game he plays so it might factor into his decision if he makes it to FA

Happy for Lucky, and yeah...It would have been a hard fit here....but....hopefully that makes the Riders pay around 230k or so for Duke....The eyegouging  spitshow I assume thinks he's worth top dollar...3/4 million in him and Faj should hamper them rather nicely

Lenius has signed with the Falcons. I don’t assume he’ll stick much, but good for him none the less.

and do we know what 2Jeff2Furious are each making next year? I'm curious to compare it...

I think combined 400k Willie 225k Jackson 175k

It's interesting....Jeffcoat should be making more than that, for sure.

Ha! I was reading the rider board this morning. I was assured he was going to be making around 160 tops 😄

After suspensions, they're probably right.

Jackson at 175 is a bargain. Both combined for 200 I can live with. They’re absolutely worth it combined. Both could probably get easily an extra 25k somewhere else so glad to have them both locked in under market value. 

yeah,,we got Jeffcoat for a steal....worth more than PED Leonard thats for sure...avg price of 200k for our ends is a nice area...I see Biggie at about 225..230k I think...which is workeable to sign others

Lucky isn't even the best receiver on the Lions, how much are they gonna pay Burn-em?

Maybe talks aren't going good. He did say he almost came here last year. Wonder if he would leave some cash on the table to c'mon down?

150k goes farther here than 200k in the GVA.

We would need a deep threat. Not sure he fits the bill.

Woild also be frustrating to let Kenny leave after we actually develop a receiver for the first time in quite awhile. 

He's as much a down field guy as Lawler. But we do need a speed tool guy.

He'd be a good fit with Reilly in BC. 

That and speedy to Hamilton would've been more interesting imo. 

I don't think he will be the highest paid wr for long. I think the Riders will give Duke more. 

Unsurprising that Farhan thinks that Lucky's deal was "earned".

I would argue we are still looking at a pretty small sample size.

So Jeffcoat gets $175,000 and Leonard is $215,000 ($205,000 + $10,000 game one bonus)? Keep up the good work, Mr. O'Day.

RF says PED Leonard was tested multiple times after his suspension last season (unsubstantiated?) + he apologized and that is the most important part.

Don't buy it. I'm sure he had go retest atleast once though. 

 His apology was terrible.

Lucky should be in the nfl. He's the most dynamic player in the league. It's a lot of money for a small sample size. But that's risk I'd take every day and twice on game day. 

Lucky has yet to play anywhere close to a full season. As far as I can tell, he has trouble staying healthy. I like the guy, but he's not someone I'm building a team around. I don't buy the "Should be in the NFL" stuff.... he's another Grant, Banks, etc....

Agreed. Need to see more than go routes and screens before I see him as an NFLer level WR.

It isn't like the NFL is unaware of his return ability either.

Not trying to be down on him and happy he got paid but I wouldn't have wanted the Bombers to give him that contract.

was healthy in 19, he got screwed by plop. Freak hand injury this year. Didnt have injuries in the nfl.

He was injured in 19....that's how Grant became the returner.

Yup. They just made him the highest paid receiver in the league after one good season. Pretty small sample size.....

This was absolutely a desperation move by the Lions who are trying to regain credibility in their market.  Can't say I blame them- if was a Lions fan, I would have wanted this.

Yeah theyve been overpaying for talent for years now with very little success.

 

Looks like Carey re-signed

Jerome Messam gonna be a jailbird.

They're hoping Lucky sells some tickets. Burnham will re-sign. He obviously likes the Lower Mainland. He'll stay.
