May 1, 201510 yr comment_117566 Now all your favourite players are going to have to be cut to pay for Willy!

May 1, 201510 yr comment_117569 @PentonKirk: Drew Willy is getting his contract extension, and sources say it's north of 400K per year. #Bombers #CFL

We'll see how it breaks down when the details leak though, a fair share of that will clearly be bonuses. Hopefully that agreement stipulates "achievements" and does not simply award games played.
May 1, 201510 yr comment_117573 Really hoping Drew Willy lives up to the promise and confidence that he's being shown here. Hopefully MOS has the cojones to sit Willy if he falls short of expectations. If it is an incentive-laden contract, that would be easier to do.
May 1, 201510 yr comment_117574 Great news for the Bombers and the beginning of a solid quarterbacking era in the Peg. Now go out and prove me right Drew Willy.
May 1, 201510 yr comment_117576 Good news regardless of the amount. It's not easy to find a QB. US bomber fans should know this more than everyone else.
May 1, 201510 yr comment_117577 If Joe Mack were still our GM, he'd say to Willy's agent, "Here's $200k...take it or leave it!"

May 1, 201510 yr comment_117580 Real good news...excited to see what the kid shows this summer and hopefully fall!
May 1, 201510 yr comment_117581 With the cap increase its probably the right value for a 28 year old starting QB.
May 1, 201510 yr comment_117584 North of $400K. More than Mitchell, Reilly, Collaros and Crompton. In Ray and Burris territory. Good for Willy, I guess. I hope he earns it this year and going forward. I still think it's the wrong move.
May 1, 201510 yr comment_117585 The Bombers are making a "significant" football announcement at 11am. Lawless & Penton are thinking it's an extension for Willy. Bombers extending their Willy. Had to get that out of the way.

I hope he earns it this year and going forward. I still think it's the wrong move. I think that in all fairness, you should probably write a strongly worded letter to the the Chair of the Winnipeg Football Club. In it, you can outline your concerns and include your extensive CV which will demonstrate just how informed your opinion is. I'm confident that once they read the letter, they will give it the attention it deserves.
May 1, 201510 yr comment_117587 The contract being done now just shows the parties involved are aware of the necessities of getting this deal done now. And in pretty much the same vein, they will have structured this contract in a way that makes sense..for everybody. Well not everyTBbody, but those who can see it for what it's worth. No horror show, nor distractions to be worried about all year. What am I saying? Every time Willy has a bad throw, int. or gets sacked, I'm sure we'll hear about THAT bloody contract.
May 1, 201510 yr comment_117590 I am more concerned about the length of the contract I want a 3+ year contract.
May 1, 201510 yr Author comment_117591 If Joe Mack were still our GM, he'd say to Willy's agent, "Here's $200k...take it or leave it!" Then he'd tell a long story about the days of leather helmets and a time when people used to wear onions on their belt. Good for Willy and the bombers - I'm guessing base salary is more aroun $300-350 with incentives 1/4 of the cap is now tied up in QB and OL, Bob Wylie is full time... if there's a problem now, its on MB's schemes.

I hope he earns it this year and going forward. I still think it's the wrong move. What I've learned posting here is you think everything the bombers do is the wrong move so just saying, but since you seem to always think they are doing wrong, your shtick is getting/gotten old.

This must be the earliest an OC has been thrown under the bus. Then again, we did have Crowton.

I'm confident that once they read the letter, they will give it the attention it deserves Lots of folks think whatever the Bombers do is right. I disagree with something the Bombers did. Not the first time. Won't be the last time. I still hope it works out. That being said, do you think that Willy's worth more than the rest of the young QB's in the league?

What I've learned posting here is you think everything the bombers do is the wrong move so just saying, but since you seem to always think they are doing wrong, your shtick is getting/gotten old. I've agreed with most of the Bombers changes this year. Only 2 that I disagree with so far... Willy getting north of $400K and keeping MB as OC. Your shtick seems to be remembering things that didn't happen then complaining about them.

Well, in fairness, it was the style at the time.
