I agree that it is not the best, but I will wait and see the team assembled around him first.

Again, all depends on what his intended usage is. I don't think Walters is a fool. It's quite possible that they sat Fatboi down and told him his role and salary are taking a nose dive this year but if he wants to accept that here is a contract. We did it with Harris so I am not sure why Fatboi would be immune to reality.

Again...depends what he signed for. If he is at league min, and we don't know he isn't, then maybe they just want some cost certainty at DT NAT rotation at a low price. There are some big assumptions being made that his contract is taking away money from other signings and that simply may not be the case.

Walters has a mind of his own and they make these decisions in tandem. He had a good interview with Donavan Bennett a week or so ago and stated that he has final say over the roster and has and will use it. He listens to the coaching staffs opinions and then goes from there and decides how they fit into his SMS or if they will fit into his SMS. He said that the coaches trust the scouting pipeline and if a deal can't be worked out with a player the coaches would like to have that they trust the process of how he decides on that.

It depends what he signed for. If he's league minimum it effects our ability to sign Bennett in no way. I do agree that we probably should have just went rookie tho.

Yea....he's been coordinating his hawaiian shirts with matching sandals and khakis for quite some time already.

Think that was announced quite some time ago. They are good QBs but nothing special. There are more factors than just how they play the game when signing them. Both are old and haven't really demonstrated an ability to win the big games. If you are going to overlook their ages then you would at least want that on their resumes.

I am not sure you watched him this year. He's playing well. I've watched most of the Montreal games and he has not fit your description at all?

It's a solid move by the Jets. Still leaves a bunch of cap room for more additions and solidifies 2C. Monahan is having a decent season.

He's playing decent hockey,

??

I hope this was a league minimum contract.

Strev would have been both a MASSIVE add for them on the field and for their culture. I am sure glad he came home. He is going to have our guys fired up. Easily the best 120k we've spent in FA in a long time.

I don't blame them for not doubling down on Dolegala. Doubling down on Harris and Fine is just a complete mess waiting to happen tho. I am absolutely mind boggled that with Brown and Strev on the market that they made no play for these guys. Harris is a band aid at best. The only way this even remotely has any logic in my mind is if they feel that Rourke will come back and set in motion a better QB domino effect for them than this offseason. Unlikely.

He's never been awful. Inconsistent and easy to rattle once hit...for sure. Injury prone...yep. Advanced in age...no doubt about it. Me neither. Keep up the great work JOD!!

I would love nothing more than to keep Brady with a raise to a fair contract. However, our ability to replace him effectively puts a cap on that number that is far lower than the numbers the media is throwing around. If Brady can get what he wants elsewhere all the power to him, but anything more than 200k is in the realm of stupid contract for a RB. Anything more than 180k for us, would also probably qualify as the same.

Jones definitely should never be counted out of any potential stupid contract signing for sure. However, he has Brown who might be even better than Brady.

I can't see us letting a talent like Schoen go without throwing a very big number at him to stay. Guys like Schoen don't come around often. He is a legit top of the league receiver that has barely scratched the surface of his career. He is a unicorn when it comes to replacing him and what he brings to an offence.

I think he was referring to the impact of losing Brady on the brand.

He was never paid 235k here. Considering Bailey signed for 85k last year I very highly doubt we go higher than 100k for him.

I think Lucky as returner 6th receiver might be good if Janarion is gone.

Part of my RB requirements is that they are a good RB, so I'll take a pass on Morrow.

I wouldn't mind Lucky here as a returner and occasional receiver IF we can't re-sign Grant.

I see no risk at all. Even the average fan understands the parameters of a cap world in sports. The only risk to the Bombers is if they severely lowballed him and he went public with that....and even then it would be like Harris. People outraged for a day or two then flocking to the stadium in droves to watch us win.

BC has some big fish to re-sign as well for sure.
