TrueBlue4ever Posted February 4, 2023 Report Share Posted February 4, 2023 I would not offer Demski that much in hard money, but let him achieve that amount with bonuses if he can show that he can stay healthy and play a full 18 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goldkobra Posted February 4, 2023 Report Share Posted February 4, 2023 185-190k is about what Demski will get. Girlie Kittens set the market. I think its a fair price. A quality NI reciever is just as valuable as a NI lineman. Wanna-B-Fanboy and JCon 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won't have too much trouble finding a new owner at this point. The team is in a much better position now then the last time they were for sale. Attendance is up and league revenues are way up with gambling revenue extra TV revenue coming from the upcoming US TV deal. Lets not let our hatred for Ambrosie cloud our judgement. Thankfully the problem isn't with the business opportunity but rather with ownership. The team clearly works if it has solid ownership. Colin, just what have you been drinking today?? "Let's not let our hatred of Ambrosie cloud our judgement????" Wow, WTH??? The Alouettes aren't in good shape. They're hemorraging money losing in the millions. They only average 13-16,000 per game with season ticket sales of about 4-5,000. They've been in trouble financially since the last Als dynasty ended after 2009. The league doesn't have the finanacial resources to support the teaam like it did in 2018-19 because of the pandemic, No one is rushing in to buy the team. Read the stories in the media that are starting to pop up. More & more people are beginning to realize the team may fold. And it's the CFL's fault as it all could have been avoided. The decision to bring in a 90 year old owner was both Ambrosie's fault & the BOG's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see those numbers & remember that Lawler got over $300,000 last year. Duke Williams got over $225,000. Drew Desjarlais a FREAKING GUARD got $225,000. I think those numbers Gittens signed for are doable for Demski. He won't be making $185,000 a year. It'll be slightly more like Gittens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigblue204 Posted February 4, 2023 Report Share Posted February 4, 2023 Not sure it's a gross over pay. High? Sure. But wasn't he their leading reciever? Plus Canadian? Plus young? If he continues to improve this year and the next 2, I could see a team giving him that. So TO hedged their bet. No guarantees in the CFL, especially on big contracts. Demski at 200 is fair. Not more than that though. Jesse and JCon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booch Posted February 4, 2023 Report Share Posted February 4, 2023 Indunno...200k for any top flight receiver regardless of nationality in my opinion is or should be top money benchmark...over 200k is getting stupid..and restricts you at a position where if you have good scouting should be easy filled...and if he is your best highest paying guy..and gets dinged for any short periods...likely your Canadian backup is sub par There are tons of Gittens types down south for a third of that cost...likely better and would take less time to develop...paying your Canadian lineman..those big bucks...but specialty players like reciever and even RB to an extent is dumb...

And it won't matter if his QB can't get him the ball on a consistent basis. I still can't believe we lost to these suckers. My hatred for the Argos is cruising along nicely. Argos don't make the playoffs next year. They think they're better than they are. From Champions to Chumps in a very short period of time. That's my wager.

JohnnyAbonny Posted February 4, 2023 Report Share Posted February 4, 2023 Everyone was slightly off. I still think it was that Prukop pick that did them in the most. They were going for a backbreaker like the Strev-Harris pass in 19, but you gotta just keep it on the ground there. All the momentum. Brady was starting to kill it. That call was just inexplicable.
