  1. If Eiben shakes free i wonder if mos and jy consider him to come on here.

  2. Unless they told Walters something different, his agent didn't specify a timeline when he commented on it a month ago. Weinrauch said he'd be happy to sign here if/when all NFL opportunities are exhausted. It was was Walters who said they probably won't know until after Feb 1st when NFL futures contracts are signed. That might be something they discussed privately though.

  3. It makes all the sense in the world for him to try and get a shot for as long as he can and I certainly wouldn't fault him. Having said that, it's interesting that they seemingly told Walters that if it doesn't pan out this NFL season, that they'll be in camp come May.

  4. From what I know they get now 1850 a week per diem...vets a bit over 3000...so not sure what you getting that from...so false. If he makes 5 weeks of camp he gets about 7500 before tax...and from experience OTA's nobody gets anything...so unless they changed things during the actual season its as it was.. the money part is somewhat accurate for a vet...but that's the per diem amount...not a "salary" plus a per diem...nobody gets salary paid at all thru camp Also when season starts and u hooing to try and get a pr from a team after u were cut and say get asked for a workout...there is a 48 hour window where tean will cover your expense...if goes longer than that without offered a PR spot you on your own and pay.. if u git a good agent they will cover it...if not u or your family foots anything outside the 48 hour window...again...speaking from experience personally and with players we trying to get opp's with You can sign a futures deal..but u wont see spit unless u make a squad...looks nice on paper and all...but the funds don't come until season starts...if u make it And a guy like Elgserma won't be getting no bonus...

  6. Sums up about 95% of these RIP threads. Mainly D List (at best) "celebs" that nobody has heard of. Do we really need a post to hear the 3rd cousin once removed of the person who voiced Tickle me Elmo died? I don't think so but here we are! 😂

  9. No idea how long he can go with out a deal financially. Kid is very talented and performed well in pre season. Hes deserving of a shot, but who knows if it’ll come. If he gets or time down south that’d be great for him. If he gets another nfl camp that too would be great for him. A camp here would be good, the ufl if they let him play would even be good between nfl tcs. Really as long as he is active and gets coaching and practice / tc he will be in good shape. I hope he doesn’t end up waiting for calls that don’t come. I also hope he is actively working with a great qb coach right now to continue his growth.

  10. Guys with no accrued time in NFL (no time on active roster) get about $15,000 USD for a full camp plus per diems which vary for game days and controlled scrimmage. They basically have no cost too because the club provides housing and meals. Guys with accrued time get about double that. Elgersma would be in the former category at this point. That's about 6 CFL game cheques on a rookie deal.

  13. Every year I keep thinking it's gonna happen... We talk about Old Boys Club around here a lot, and that's an OBC guy I've been expecting for years now.

  14. The delay feels like last year when nothing was done and they ended up with Hogan who was a bad choice and possibly a last resort.

  15. Waiting too long till the cupboard is bare is a big negative....'Hiring who you want' vs 'hiring someone because you have to fill a spot' is not seen by anyone as favorable ...Fans and players like to know the direction the team is headed............................I see today the Als. have lost Greg Quick to the Argos as he's their new D coordinator....Clubs getting things done early

  16. As long as the right move is made, I don't care when or if an announcement is made. They can keep it quiet as long as they want.

  19. Right? The highlights, too. His build, especially in college, before leaning out, but also the way he rides guys into the ground and never gives up. If he ends up being half the player Yoshi was, or half the teammate, that would be a huge steal for us. But wow, they are dead ringers for each other on the field. We always muse on here about former great players becoming coaches, but Yoshi is the guy, more than the rest from the GC era, that I hope goes into it after he retires. That guy is such a fantastic person, leader, and field coach; he is exactly what the sport needs in the next generation of coaches. As much as I would love to have him end up here coaching linemen in the future as well, he could do so much good back down south coaching kids. The Tait article on Yoshi from years back is still my favorite of those articles. Such perseverance from him at so many points.

  20. There's a 0% chance Elgersma signs here before the end of the next NFL season. And at that it would be if he's getting no calls and looks in January-February 2027. 4 weeks on a NFL PR and he makes more than he would on CFL deal. If he's on a roster for OTA's and training camp he'll basically make a full year of CFL salary on a rookie deal in per diem and pay. If he signs with us he won't be playing any time soon. He won't really be in a spot to succeed. They won't be building an offense around him. There's no incentive at this point for him to sign here, or the CFL generally.
