2 pointsThe upside/downside of the Brady scenario is that I bet we value him more than any other team. I think a likely scenario is he signs here for higher than he would get on the open market.2 points -

2 pointsYup...Lawler is already in the fold...but u make Schoen priority #1 on offence...if other pieces fit fine...but if 1 has to be expendable..so be it and like mentioned earlier import RB is the easiest and most seamless position on CFL to fill..and entry level American and one as his backup is way less than what u will have to pony up for BO and way less than BO and a capable backup like JA behind him...fiscally it makes huge sense. A guy like Carey...Brown in Edm...even Mills or Logan in CGy would have excelled here last yr with the same usage...could possibly eclipsed what BO did..nothing against BO but he is replaceable for way less..and at times we stated 8..9 Canadians so obviously wasn't vital to maintain a ratio2 points- 2023/2024 CFL (Non Bombers) Off Season News

2 pointsIf it comes down to choosing between Brady and Schoen, I think management chooses Brady because he's going to cost less cap, provides them a ratio option, and has the hometown connection, which sells merchandise and tickets.2 points- Former Bombers in NFL (and spring leagues) news
Iso has been a grumpy old man for 87 years now. I like the consistency, this place would be weird without it.1 point- 2023/2024 CFL (Non Bombers) Off Season News
Brady ain’t getting 200k from anyone. I doubt he gets a 180k even. reality is running backs just don’t get paid. easiest position to replace also1 point- Game 33 : Original 6.4 - Chicago

1 pointHe's a one trick pony but it's a hell of a trick. As you mentioned, you have to keep him from being able to release clean shots. Now sometimes that's easier said than done, but I agree the Jets didn't do enough to take him outta the game. He's all they've got... That's the ONE GUY you have to make sure doesn't get loose.1 point- 2023/2024 CFL (Non Bombers) Off Season News
I think in the end we say goodbye to a few vets, get discounts from Schoen and Brady to stay and go to our 5th cup in a row.1 point- Game 33 : Original 6.4 - Chicago

1 pointCould have easily been a 4-1 win, but that’s the way it goes sometimes. Didn’t like how we defended Bedard on the OT winner. He’s obviously a very talented player, but you have to try and keep him from shooting, first and foremost. If someone else beats you because he makes a good pass, so be it.1 point- Game 33 : Original 6.4 - Chicago
1 pointAgreed. Shots that are mostly low percentage chances...help the goalie stay sharp.1 point- Game 33 : Original 6.4 - Chicago
1 pointNot goalied... Hate how often that gets tossed around. They couldn't finish and hit too many posts. Against a team as bad as Chicago, you need more offense... Top line didn't do enough offensively.1 point- The TV Thread
1 pointPretty sure I'm already paying them... I love the convenience and the general idea behind streaming services, but I hate the execution and how it's turned into just another version of cable.1 point- Game 33 : Original 6.4 - Chicago
1 pointJets looked good tonight. If you can't finish, you're going to lose close games. If they can just get production from some of their forwards, they can maintain this run. I feel like 55 needs to fill the KFC hole right now.1 point- Game 33 : Original 6.4 - Chicago

1 pointI don't agree. Schoen is the priority to me as we pass so much. We can allow Brady to go elsewhere, flip the RB position to an American along with a backup for cheaper than what we're paying Brady now. That allows us more flexibility re: the salary cap.1 point- 2023/2024 CFL (Non Bombers) Off Season News
IIRC, Bond was only starting because Neufeld couldn't stay healthy. We already had Couture at center and Chungh at the other guard position (we had also signed Jeff Keeping as a FA but he missed the whole season). Bond did play at a high level for us those 2 seasons but if not for injuries, would he have even seen the field?1 point- 2023/2024 CFL (Non Bombers) Off Season News
Well, I like that fact that Canadian RBs have allowed the Bombers to start Americans at Offensive Tackle and even at Guard - that has been a real strength of the team.1 point- 2023/2024 CFL (Non Bombers) Off Season News
You should be able to start a rookie RB easily....especially one who was a starter in college and has already bounced around NFL camps...Running back in the CL is the position that translates seamlessly in CFL... I wouldnt call Jackson an exceptional circumstance either...that stupidity hand cuffed us big time We dont need to start multiple rookies....If BO decides he wants the moon...and paying him right screws our SM than a rookie RB will serve us very well, and if the scouts do their job can find a guy to give exactly what BO gave us, if not more with an explosive back...trust me there are tons out there. I have never liked tying the ratio to a Canadian back to be honest....it requires too much else to make it work...well work seamlessly and it kind of rapes your roster elsewhere...Losing BO is least of my off-season concerns1 point- 2023/2024 CFL (Non Bombers) Off Season News

1 pointIt's a fairly recent change, when the newest CBA bumped the minimum to 70k they made the minimum apply to all players regardless of Nationality "The CFL minimum salary will increase to $70,000 in 2023 and $75,000 in 2027. That minimum will apply to players regardless of roster designation — National, American and Global. Global players were previously limited to contracts of $54,000, lower than the league minimum."1 point- 2023/2024 CFL (Non Bombers) Off Season News

1 pointWhere would you suggest they start these rookies? The Bombers have largely avoided the scenario of starting rookies the past 4 seasons and have benefitted from that ability. Other than exceptional circumstances like Schoen and Jackson, rookies usually start their careers as backups and work their way onto the roster gradually. Starting numerous rookies in critical positions is trial by fire, and should be avoided whenever possible.1 point- Merry Christmas!
