Booch Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 (edited) Pefect value for Demski...he got fair value he was happy with and didnt hold team over barrel like some other former home town guy...that average of 190k means he likely around 170..180k for this yr...which gives us some nice wiggle room for a big splash with someone...I almost think Lawler is here with or with out Schoen...who I believe will also be back....our ability to retain guys for less than market value, but on fair deals they ahppy with to be part of this squad is huge...the players here know it as they play for each other, and do what is needed for overall team success...not just personal glory and lining of pocket 5 minutes ago, Jesse said: It is exactly the limit of what I wanted to pay - though it sounds like it'll get higher in each year.

Yes, but if it escalates then he plays this year below 190k because it averages 190k...that means that one year at least has to be below that if it is to escalate every year. wpgallday1960 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look, Harris overvalued himself for sure, and we all KNOW their was some concern about his conditioning and FIFO in his last year there. However, Demski wasn't much of a home town discount. It is just a hair below what he would have gotten on the open market imo. Jesse and Stickem 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL Just now, Booch said: yup...great value for this yr...and likely next too Yea...it's a fair contract for everyone. As for Lawler vs Schoen? It makes no sense to believe that Schoen has any bearing on our interest in Lawler...at least from an SMS perspective. Schoen is still under contract on a rookie deal. If we want Lawler it will be because we want him and can afford him but is not an either/or with Schoen. Although, Schoen's departure would certainly expedite our need at receiver. 51 minutes ago, Wideleft said: Just my personal opinion, but I think Schoen would be the biggest "add" to this roster and I have a lot of appreciation for Kenny Lawler's talent. Would also love to see a really solid add at DT. Schoen is under contract right now. He is not an add at all. However, he could be a very notable subtraction for sure.

The fact that Schoen hasn't inked anything yet leads me to believe that he will be back for sure. NFL offers have a very rapid window for guys like him. If you don't sign it right away they move onto the next guy. Each NFL teams has a dozen Dalton Schoens at the ready. It's not like he was offered a contract and given a couple weeks to mull it over and it has been a few weeks since his workouts. I believe that unless a fresh receiver signing injures himself in the next week or so and the NFL circles back, that Schoen's window has effectively closed. At this point, even if one of the NFL teams he worked out for comes in with an offer, it will be a very weak sauce TCF type of deal. NFL teams don't give players they like weeks to find another team. I am quite sure Schoen knows this as it is not his first rodeo. Going to an NFL camp as TCF, there is literally nothing you can do to make the team short of catching the coach on video doing something illegal and blackmailing him.

Unless they circle back to him just before Feb 14, but even if they do it will be a crap offer to be a training camp body. If they wanted him for real, he'd be signed by now. The NFL acts quick when they want a player. Either way, he will be a Bomber this year for sure. Either on his rookie contract as an early NFL cut or he comes to camp and maybe we extend him.
