TrueBlue4ever Posted January 27, 2023 Report Posted January 27, 2023 13 hours ago, Booch said: He does more than yards tho...like others mentioned...also if u look at last yr..basically ignored for first 6 games...0 TDs..about 160 yards...yet he finished with 9 TDs and 779 yards...and many clutch grabs along way...and in the playoffs last 3 yrs...dude gets it done when targeted...I'd say he is in the 125...135k range Actually not true. Targets in the first 6 games were 5.2 per game, last 12 games was 5.3. He just underperformed. In fact, take away one huge 4th quarter against BC, a good chunk of it in garbage time, where he got 11% of his season’s worth of catches and yards, and 22% of his TDs, and he averaged about 3 catches and 37 yards a game all season. He was pretty much a non-factor in this year’s playoffs (4 catches, 50 yards total). Hey, I like his intangibles like attitude and blocking, he’s a quality class A interview, and many are misled by the “Showtime Scheed” love, but at 125-135K he’d be overpriced by about 15-25K IMO. Money needs to be saved somewhere, and I’d rather extra dollars go to an interior d-lineman than a #4 receiver (placing him behind Schoen, Demski and a healthy Ellingson).

He also ran the ball quite a bit. Not sure on yards. But that was a big part of his play this year.

But that was a big part of his play this year. Not really though. 8 rushes all year in 18 games, same as Grant who saw the field a lot less on offence, and less than half of what Demski did. And his production wasn’t great there either (yards gained were 0, 0, 3, 6, 9, 13, 15, and 19). Gadget play sweeps, which were rarely used with him and were unsuccessful as much as not.

Booch Posted January 27, 2023 Report Posted January 27, 2023 Was just spitballin' numbers..as wasnt sure where he was....he didnt make list of top paid...so was under 130k last year as that was lowest that was published...so he may have been just at or around 100k...so a bump for him won't be that big....also he signed latish last yr as well...Feb 2nd...likely after he got what other teams considered on opn market in tampering window Noeller 1
Wideleft Posted January 27, 2023 Author Report Posted January 27, 2023 17 hours ago, Noeller said: Sheed does everything asked of him. His stats aren't "relatively low" because he can't be a top tier receiver.... it's just that he's used differently. On another team, as the 1st or 2nd option, he'd likely have huge stats. So it's not that he isn't worth the money. The only way he leaves is if he feels like another team will give him a chance to be a star... I like Bailey as much as the next Bomber fan, but I don't think he has the skillset to be a feature receiver. I'd be happy to be wrong, though. CodyT, Bigblue204 and blue85gold 3
GCn20 Posted January 27, 2023 Report Posted January 27, 2023 (edited) 17 hours ago, Jesse said: I think that’s what Bailey is looking for, tbh. I expect him to move on to a team who will feature him more. He’s been a great teammate, but I think he’s looking for more than we can offer (in terms of targets, not dollars - though they tend to go up together). I agree. Bailey's a team guy and will play to the whistle every down and not air his stuff out in the media but based on some visible frustration he showed last year. I think it is pretty apparent he wants to be featured more in an offence. I am not sure we can really provide him with that opportunity. On 2023-01-26 at 10:07 AM, Booch said: but...but...but... i doubt he is back...I think he was more a need with experience with Hansen out ans Jeffcoat basically battling and playing with injury all yr that O-line and DB depth is impressive.... Also, we traded away a DE for Darby...Keion was an emergency type signing. Maybe if he comes in cheap enough or the Bombers scouting staff poops the bed on DE prospects, but otherwise I don't expect him back. Edited January 27, 2023 by GCn20
Stickem Posted January 27, 2023 Report Posted January 27, 2023 IF Bailey moves on our priority should shift to Lawler.....IF we can get Ellingson on the cheap , use the money in conjuction with Baileys salary to accomplish that....First things first ....get Demski on the dotted line and work from there....I'm sure we have already figured in Schoen and that looks like a pretty good receiving corps for 23' rebusrankin 1
Bigblue204 Posted January 27, 2023 Report Posted January 27, 2023 I hope Agudosi is in the plans for a starting position this year. I also hope that position does not include a lot of YAC expectations. I can't remember being so excited about a play for so long and really never seeing him play because of injuries.

Jpan85 Posted January 27, 2023 Report Posted January 27, 2023 63 catches for 729 yards and 9 TD that is really great production out of your #3/#4 receiver. MOBomberFan, Mark H., Bigblue204 and 5 others 6 2

I don't think anyone would have an issue with us bringing back Sheed. However, I doubt Sheed is looking at #4 status receiver or the money that brings. That being said, I don't see a lot of teams where he is a top 2 guy either.

He could absolutely be at least the 2nd option on virtually any team in the league. He's an American version of Demski, in a lot of ways. Does so many good things and if he was given more targets, I have no doubt he'd light it up. Piggy 1 and CodyT 2
JCon Posted January 27, 2023 Report Posted January 27, 2023 It's Friday afternoon. I could use a signing announcement to take me into the weekend. Demski... Walters... time to stop playing. Noeller, Bigblue204, bigg jay and 4 others 1 6

Geebrr Posted January 28, 2023 Report Posted January 28, 2023 If you go to the end Rasheed said he is working on a new deal hopefully coming in the next few weeks and wants it to be long term. The next few weeks seems to include FA so it is not totally re-assuring other than he said he was working on getting it done now 😂 Bigblue204, Stickem, Noeller and 1 other 4
