I think you are kind of misguided about Richmond. Pretty sure it was more of a “at this point in my life, I need this much or I can make more doing something else” more than a trying to hold the club hostage. Pretty sure he resides in Winnipeg and his other-than-football stuff is in the medical field.

Come on man, you’re better than this. There’s no maybe, Hardrick isn’t getting 350k to play football this year. The bonus is never over the value of the contract, they’ve literally never reported it that way.

There’s no plus the bonus. The bonus is always just a portion. Hardrick isn’t getting paid 230 plus 120.

Drew Richmond retired 😂

I agree too and as much as I’d love to see Bailey back, I also want to see him make his money and go somewhere he can be a second option. He’s capable enough to do it, I just don’t think we can give him what he deserves.

It just hit me that we got Brady, Streveler and Schoen for a combined 580k.

@greenrider55 get in here and explain yourself you wizard

Only once GCn acknowledges McCaffrey and James Cook are not equal

If you think a bellcow averaging 6 yards a carry is similar to a bunch of guys who do it way less often for considerably less production is “similar”, you’re lost. Beyond lost.

let’s go back to arguing about Jake Thomas now

One year deal for Dalton. 230k. STEAL

Sorry, more is what I meant. 25 more

His YPC was higher because he didn’t take goal line touches. I’ll do the math later.

Welcome back Dalton

It isn’t obvious, mostly because you seem completely lost about what his production actually looked like last year

Yes he did, what are you even talking about? The only guy he didn’t have a better YPC than was Kevin Brown, who didn’t take goal line touches and is going to naturally get a bump in his YPC from that. Also, where is this “100 more than any other back” bullshit coming from? He had 25 less carries than James Butler and over 400 more yards. Is that significant enough for you? Hell the only full time back he had 100 more than was Mills and he wasn’t even the guy the whole year and missed 3 games.

This is a serious question: so what?

I wish I knew where to find this: I can only assume he led the league in runs for a first on second down, but how many more than the next guy did Brady have

Just to be clear it’s obviously not 275k a season but the whole deal is fully guaranteed? That’s ridiculous

Now hearing DB Demerio Houston has agreed in principle to a two-year deal with Calgary that has a total guaranteed figure exceeding $275k, making him one of the league’s highest-paid defensive backs. what in the actual **** lol Actually been a fan of his for a while

Jeff Hamilton reporting Brady took less to stay in Winnipeg and talked 250k+ with other teams.

If we’re moving on from a few guys like Hardrick, Jeffcoat and some of the special teamers who were making 100k+ then we may as well spend that money somewhere. If we can afford to give Cam Lawson a 60k raise, Brady getting not quite double that works just fine for me if it works fine for them.

I develop my opinions based on what I see with my eyes, not based on a bunch of speculative numbers on paper. You won’t hear me speak any differently - I do think something needs to be done about O’Shea’s roster management and I do think Collaros has proven himself an underwhelming playoff performer on a decline. Any other hit and run questions?

I hear you brother. I just don’t like arguing over fairytales. I get we’re only going off what we have, I just don’t understand the purpose. This isn’t like the Hardrick deal to me. I don’t need to know anything other than “Hardrick” and “highest paid American OL” to know that’s stupid. Way more at play here.

I don’t know why none of you have realized yet that Booch IS Damian Jackson.
