HardCoreBlue Posted January 31 Report Posted January 31 I'm hoping with this signing we employ at times a 2qb formation set to keep the D on their heels. That will be fun to watch. Bigblue204 1
Noeller Posted January 31 Author Report Posted January 31 obviously a huge fan of the incoming Strevolution.... and what a deal on that contract. Quasi-necro post here, but since it wasn't really mentioned a couple pages back.... the Koala contract might be the worst in KW's tenure here. Gave a pretty sizeable raise to a guy that is maybe the 7/8 OL on this team. They must be expecting to lose at least one piece or maybe two (Gray/Yoshi) and paid out of desperation. Either way, looks super ugly. MrFreakzilla, wbbfan, Jesse and 2 others 1 2 1 1
Goalie Posted January 31 Report Posted January 31 (edited) How is our starting center the 7th or 8th on the chart when we don’t even have 8 OL signed for next year. gray and hardrick aren’t signed and at this point I’d be somewhat surprised if they signed them Edited January 31 by Goalie Bigblue204 and MrFreakzilla 2

Booch Posted January 31 Report Posted January 31 knew this was a forgone conclusion...as I said expect it in Jan..well they waited to last day. Very economical price tag, and love the 1 yr deal as well, so as to revisit in the next off-seasn. People will be surprised at how different he is as a passer now, and being out from under Lapo here who stagnated him will be huge, and I know we are gonna see a lot of 2 QB packages this summer...good luck with that opposing defences. Schoen will be next, and best of the rest I bet will gauge what market has to offer now...tho I think we could see a Hardrick 1 yr deal sooner than later I think this as well puts the nail in the BO coffin unless he realizes that no market is being set, and fair value is his best interests....if not i think we pull a shocker and lock down Oullette...will gave same as BO for less, and has a bit more explosiveness to him as well wbbfan, Piggy 1, Bigblue204 and 3 others 5 1

The main thing his game was lacking in 2019 was patience, he didn't spend much time looking down field, hopefully he's learned to slow things down and take his time. Piggy 1 and rebusrankin 2

TBURGESS Posted January 31 Report Posted January 31 Ecstatic at getting Strev back! $120K is a steal of a price. Good job Walters. Booch, MOBomberFan, Stickem and 5 others 4 4

Either way, looks super ugly. What is he making? I missed it. Your (very) average NI guard is probably making $125k + He was better than average and is a guy who can play two spots. One spot being catastrophic if you get below average play (centre). 5 minutes ago, wbbfan said: He’s bad. Expect gray back imo. I don’t agree that he is bad. I think he played better towards the end of the year as well. He has rough spots - but show me a Centre that didn’t last year. Edited January 31 by Geebrr MOBomberFan 1

BBlink Posted January 31 Report Posted January 31 Really expecting Strevelers contract to max out around 300k. I'm actually surprised his base salary is so low.

If I remember correctly it was a 2 year extension at 140-150K per? Fuzzy on the actual number but I believe that's pretty close. Noeller 1
rebusrankin Posted January 31 Report Posted January 31 I've changed my mind on Kolo. I have decided that Walters plan is that he drafts a stud OL prospect who becomes our 6th OL, while Eli beats out Kolo and then Kolo is dealt for draft capital. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. 😉 Doublezero 1
Goalie Posted January 31 Report Posted January 31 (edited) Gray in my opinion was worse than kolo. I don’t see it with gray. i also thought Stanley Bryant was owned multiple games also. It stuck out to me cuz normally nobody gets by big Stan but last season, there were games where Stan looked completely done. I prob wouldn’t have signed neufeld to a new contract tho as in my opinion if you rarely practice then you shouldn’t play. I’ll say this. I hope training camp this year is a competition and not like last year where our vets pretty much got a free pass. Edited January 31 by Goalie MOBomberFan 1

I guess if you were up front with him - then it is all good. You don’t want guys afraid to commit. Edited January 31 by Geebrr

The top tier NI guards probably make 40k more than that and can’t play Centre. He isn’t as bad as he gets portrayed here. Not even close. Goalie and MOBomberFan 1 1

There’s always one or 2 who are convinced they know more than the ppl who see them everyday. Between you and me there’s definitely one guy like that on here and to be honest it gets annoying reading some of his posts. Just believes he knows more. Like Mike years ago but Mike doesn’t do that anymore. The other guy does tho. Edited January 31 by Goalie roddy315 1
