PS Game #2
He was the media darling, but imo, hasn't been anything special. Should be his last shot. Imo, Singer has all but made the team already. Could screw it up, but I doubt it. Davis has a shot to stick around with his versatility; Mayes and Womack have outside shots at making the PR. At that, I think 2 of those guys make the club at most. Unless multiple guys really light the world on fire tonight, even then its hard to see 3 of those guys sticking even with IR hiding / PR. At that, I think Singer is the only one who has a chance of giving a first-year Bailey, maybe a first-year Lawler level of production.

Im ready for the disappointment of us being married to Jones-kyrie starting at mac/wil and DIing Ayers.

How very Farhan of him. Personally, I would put TE on the PR at that point. I think he still has development sitting for a year and watching. Keep brown ready to go and have Bryce do the short yardage stuff. Pretty much. Some teams don't want to sit on a QB controversy, though. It is very distracting unless you have an incredible locker room to manage it. Imo, ott doesn't have that. I could very well be wrong about that. I don't think that Dinwiddie gives a crap, though. I think he's happy to sit on any QB talent he likes. But, I don't think he cares for Brown. Unless mccheese becomes some kind of revelation, I could see him trading for one of his 2 old QBs in toronto. They do need AR assets. Lauther is probably the last K in the league any one would want, and that OL needs work.

Nah, normally its conditional middle draft pick for a qb. And once a team demotes a guy, its tough to get any asset for them as the contracts are soo high they are heavily incentivized to cut those guys and teams can wait and pick them up, on a better deal, for free.

PS Game #2
You can work 5 qbs in pre season, we've done it before. Lets be real, no one was passing TE and probably not Perkins either unless he totally turned to dog water. The decision to throw 99% of game reps to 2 qbs isn't normal. He is a guy who could rush from a 3 tech spot and play inside out like many tweeners we've had in the past. But we haven't really given him a ton of reps doing that. I hope to see it today though. And Fletcher could do the same. His versatility is his biggest advantage imo. If reese plays smarter, his explosivity is extremely coveted. And Dixon is the best of the young guys vying for that spot. 1 guy will start and another guy should be a DI. Then we should keep probably 2 on the PR. That group is lead by Dixon, Jenkins, Fletcher, and Reese. I also think Arnold Young has a real chance to steal AR reps.

I didn't even wanna say that haha, but possibly. Its too early to jump on the lidster train that hard, but I can see it happening. Given every thing, I'd probably want an asset back in a castillo for dru trade. Sergio was very good last year, he's in his prime for a K, and he's money. Plus he can punt as well.

if that’s the case, if half that goes to the cap that is a significant change for the league. The league needs to increase the coaching cap by atleast 50%, add roster spots and significantly bump pr and base salary for rookies. 100k min salary including rookies would be great for recruitment. So would bumping the qb min to say 200k.

conditional pick, imp ol like vanterpool, imp lber, or the old punter maybe

PS Game #2
i mean it’s not really that many new guys. 1-2des maybe 1 dl, 1db, maybe 1wr. The 3-4th and lower guys don’t have much of a chance either

PS Game #2
he quit after the players got the depth chart. Mos commented on their conversation and the cause of it. kinda funny that we won’t pull zach late in a blow out to get other qbs in, but also won’t give the starters reps to get sharp in pre season.
-
PS Game #2
unless we see squad 3-4 and lower I think it’s gonna be an awful slog for the qbs the whole game. Really diminishes the value of reps when 90% of that roster won’t see the pr or ar. It’s strange too, we didn’t have reps for the other 2 qbs but zach took like two drives the whole of pre season? could’ve kept thorne and given him time with ease

PS Game #2
same im really surprised. i’m hoping it means they thing he and the system are 100% ready to go and they want to keep him healthy. If we see 1-2 pre season quality games from the offence i’m a be pissed. Eli getting almost no snaps at c is such a strange move. So is going back to ellsbury. only 2 qbs on the ar is really risky. Should’ve brought in a guy. this game is going to be tough to watch nice, i wonder if it’ll be the stadium feed again then

i wonder if we will see cfl+/ pre season changes with the dazn change

i can’t imagine it would come into place before the deal is being paid out. Can’t believe they got that kind of money. I could see the league wanting to slowly increase the cap with respect to this gain. soo many teams are in bad shape, I think the governors will want to pocket some money before passing it on. 100%, you’ve been an under paid asset for too long. You should get any % increase you want… 🙃 new streaming service plus massive rule over haul, I think the old guard (ie us) are going to be hit pretty hard for a while. But maybe it’ll allow the league to reach the demographic it needs in order to out live us. Then again, you are all stubborn bastards, every last one of you. (not me though… :p ) so the old guard might surprise the league with refusal to let go.

yeah not cheap. I don’t mind if it’s got all the games, but i don’t want to be paying for tsn and dazn for cfl games. 500m over 6 years can’t be it that would be insane. I can’t imagine that dazn would over spend to invest in the cfl, when the changes coming next year are such a huge risk. I don’t either, but dinwiddie marches to the best of his own drum at qb. I suspect he wants to get a good look at mccheese, and wants brown to have to really scrap for the spot. If they do go with mccheese, browns deal isn’t crazy but they would be well off if they sit on brown and trade him early to mid season to a team with qb injuries/sever disappointments. I wouldn’t cut a qb like that. Look at the junk qb state the league is in, guy like brown has good value.
