I think BOLO is gone though, he’s going to get 120-130ish from somebody.

I would imagine you are right. Tough situation for us, as we are not likely to go 3 NAT receivers and aren't looking to replace Woli or Demski. That makes any decent offer or realistic shot at starting reps pretty tough for us to compete with. Like when we lost Petermann.

Not a lot of job openings for Natl. receivers unless they accept a backup role, Nate Behar is probably ahead of BOLO on the waiting list.

Don't think there's any savings letting him go. Think they role with rookie level salary at DT every year

I think they have some cash left over to spend obviously but how much. Who knows. Not everyone remaining will be league minimum.

After his first season that would've been a rookie deal as well. Because he was on practice roster deal before that and typically teams will re-do the practice rosters contracts to add another year at the end of the season. Likely the reason why Evan Holm and Jamal Parker both have another year left on rookie contracts. So even if it wasn't Ricky's first deal technically, I'm almost positive he was making very close to the minimum

Neither Holm or Parker played a game in 2021 so there's the difference.
February 12, 20241 yr comment_688118 figured that was coming...good long serving guy...but was time to move on there

Meh, Friesen is the journalist's equivalent of a wrestling heel- always causing ****, but always entertaining- he is a much more tolerable read, when viewed through this lens.

The look on Strevie's face when Friesen was asking him those mindnumbingly stupid questions during the conference call was priceless.
February 13, 20241 yr comment_688154 Janarion Grant has always been a late signing. Until such time as he is gone that's a non-story.
