JohnnyAbonny Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 (edited) Very unexpected, but always glad to see a guy like Brady playing here. I think Schoen goes west now Edited February 6 by JohnnyAbonny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebusrankin Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 My guess is Brady got between 180 and 200 k. bearpants, wbbfan, Piggy 1 and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 I’m thinking Brady got probably between 210-220k and honestly, I’m fine with that Rex_Banner, Jesse, wpgallday1960 and 4 others 3 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Perfect Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 IF it comes down to losing Schoen to keep Brady, I am 110% okay with that. Ignoring being from Winnipeg - We're talking about the best player at his position AND counting as a National, AND handling the ball typically 15-20 times a game, occasionally sometimes more. As the weather turns, running the ball gets increasingly important, while Schoen, is at a position where we already have great talent, is usually the easiest position to find new, American talent, and only handles the ball a few times a game. Don't get me wrong - I love Schoen. He's a gritty SOB and among the best at his position too...but given the above, if forced to choose (and hopefully we don't have to), I'm keeping Brady every day of the week and twice on Sundays. It's not particularly close for me whatsoever. Bomber_fanaddict, Bigblue204, Rex_Banner and 3 others 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Labour Day was the start of the fall. Changed the whole game by taking a needless risk for a pick 6. factor in he was probably the worst tackler on the team as well...he shuld have been on the pine the last 3rd of season and playoffs...but staff was blinded by the picks rebusrankin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope we manage to keep both though. rebusrankin, MOBomberFan and Mr. Perfect 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pepper_Brooks Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 Wow, what a way to kick off the day! I'm absolutely pumped that Brady's sticking around! My health has been taking a major hit lately and I've been feeling at an all-time low, this news is like a touchdown for my spirit, I haven't felt this fired up since November Deiter Fan, Bubba Zanetti, BomberBall and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 I’m going to try and be self-aware with this because I know I prefer Schoen over Brady myself, but I did have a conversation with my dad the other day where he made a very good point: we’ve never played Schoenball in the 4th Q to seal a win. We’ve made a habit of playing Bradyball. That stuff does matter and I don’t think I had really considered that until he said it.

Jpan85 Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 Club needed to do this you can’t have a top ten player in the league from your city playing for another team. Just from a PR point this a win.

That comes after Schoen racking up TDs. I love Brady, I’m glad he is back - he is the best RB in the league. However, giving him bank is not high on my priority list. voodoochylde 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booch Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 My question why only 2yrs?....he wants to try and re-set market again??...team should have pushed for a 3 yr...substantial increase in yr 3 when some big money will be off the book, and with some guaranted money to sweeten the pot... Hopefully we find a way to have an Import back on roster to put out at same time, and to give him a breather/change it up..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 I really think there’s a notable absence of negotiations being held with the top receivers and I’m guessing it’s because everyone has realized paying 300k to a Lawler or Lewis doesn’t mean anything if you suck at QB. My gut tells me right now that Schoen may have been hoping for an offer from Ottawa to go play with Dru, but now that it’s probably not coming, he’ll be back here at 260k-ish rebusrankin, JCon, blue85gold and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booch Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 A Streveler and BO combo to run and grind out games in final 5 mins or so of a game tho will be a tough nut to swallow for some defenses now tho...and be very fun to watch rebusrankin, blue85gold, Sard and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
