Makes him the highest paid 🇺🇸OL in @CFL. @CFLonTSN LMFAO oh my...hhahaha...what an over pay....so funny 4 minutes ago, GCn20 said: Holy overpay Batman. That's ridiculous. only way they can aquire established talent...and As much as I love Yosh...what a bad bad contract....Atta boy Oday!!....keep it coming 4 minutes ago, bustamente said: Riders are a desperate team and organization, he is nowhere near worth that contract but like I said the dummies are desperate nailed it! 4 minutes ago, Mike said: You gotta think they view him as the blindside tackle for that cash which is absolutely bananas good luck Riders QB's with that 2 minutes ago, Geebrr said: I really hope the Gappers sign Betts for 300k . well...they have now over paid to have the highest paid olineman....Over payed to pay Lanier as the highest paid defensive player...which is amother joke...may as well over pay for Betts as highest paid Canadian/Defensive player haha...what a clown show....love it! Just now, wbbfan said: Imo gray should be a rt. That said, idk if he’s ready for that switch. He struggled at times in pass pro at guard last year. Between he and Richmond we should have a good battle. Let the best guy start. Richmond instantly makes us better in pass pro but arguably worse in run pro. Bryant Neufeld Eli Dobson gray/richmond is the best case scenario. And that is an improvement over last years line. Shouldn’t need a lot of time to gel. Gray should be outside.....not sure if he ready fulltime yet.....But withRichmond and the new guy from U of Hawaiii...we more than fine there with a starter and back up Piggy 1 1

Shouldn’t need a lot of time to gel. I’d agree I’d it was yoshi circa 2 years ago. I meant the $165-175k we were giving/probably offering. Thats as high as I would have personally went.

Goalie Posted February 5 Report Posted February 5 (edited) Sign Schoen and or Brady and really I’m good. I expected some change, be silly to think there wasn’t gonna be any. Hardrick replaced internally. Not a big deal in my opinion. Who else we lose via free agency so far?Nobody we wanted back. I’m glad they let yoshi go for the amount sask is giving him.

bustamente Posted February 5 Report Posted February 5 Riders saw that the toilet bowl had fewer and fewer turds as the season progressed last year, jammed packed is a distant memory and they need to do something, anything to get more turds into the bowl, Narrator: this isn't it. Bigblue204 1

Piggy 1 Posted February 5 Report Posted February 5 1 hour ago, Mike said: I don’t hate that at all. Yoshi gets his cash, Riders get a diminishing asset, Drew Richmond gets a chance to play. Totally agree. I thought his level of play diminished quite a bit last year.
Fatty Liver Posted February 5 Report Posted February 5 10 minutes ago, Goalie said: I feel he’s moving on to his engineering career unless he’s not done yet but he’s taking it at U of M or was so. not sure he’s back honestly. I’d think he’d have been signed by now if he was coming back. If he’s still in school we are his only option really. Doubt Gray is still in school, he started pursuing his Masters in Mechanical Engineering in 2018 after graduating and he's obviously a smart guy, a program like that usually takes 2 years. Noeller 1

rebusrankin Posted February 5 Report Posted February 5 (edited) $230,000 a year isn't enough to live in Regina. Edited February 5 by rebusrankin Geebrr and Noeller 1 1
Mike Posted February 5 Report Posted February 5 Just now, rebusrankin said: So we save how much, $130,000 to $140,000 going from Yoshi to Richmond or the Hawaii guy? We probably save about 80? Don’t forget - we didn’t pay him 230k, the Riders did. Not saving what we never spent. Bigblue204, Noeller and rebusrankin 3

They paid the $60k “I have to live in Regina” tax to Yoshi. Noeller 1
Booch Posted February 5 Report Posted February 5 Just now, rebusrankin said: So we save how much, $130,000 to $140,000 going from Yoshi to Richmond or the Hawaii guy? prob a net saving at the position of 70...80k there abouts to use elsewhere...every bit counts...I believe Richmond will essentially be on an entry level deal this yr...or just a smidge above for a courtesy move for sticking with it for 3 yrs here rebusrankin, Bigblue204 and Noeller 3

Jesse Posted February 5 Report Posted February 5 Yoshi would have hit all his incentives last year for 166k. Richmond can't be on a minimum deal, but we're still probably saving more there than we gave as a raise to Kolankowski. That plus whatever shave Bryant took and we're saving a little bit along the OL compared to last season, I would think. Bigblue204 1
GCn20 Posted February 5 Report Posted February 5 25 minutes ago, Mike said: I genuinely would’ve been disappointed to see us bring back Yoshi at 50k a year less than that. 230k is insanity. I think if the Bombers had offered him 180 he would have re-signed. Just my opinion.

Richmond technically has never signed an actual yearly contract filed to the league...Just practice roster agreements...so yes....he could be on a minimum deal but I bet we pay him a bit more...insignificant in the grand scheme Just now, GCn20 said: I think if the Bombers had offered him 180 he would have re-signed. Just my opinion. I bet too...but no way were we gonna offer him more than Stan...who took a shave....and truthfully...we kept the right Tackle Bigblue204 and Tracker 1 1
