Booch Posted October 1 Report Posted October 1 8 hours ago, WinnipegGordo said: If Lawler and or Schoen do come back next year I think Walters should be looking at the signing bonuses he is giving out to them. This year there was minimal cap savings with these guys out of of the line-up due to the size of their signing bonuses (Lawler 150k, Schoen 105k). The bonuses help keep the overall contract totals lower but the team would be better off if they decreased the bonuses incase the players get injured again. Especially in Schoen's case if he needs to start next season on the 6 game. FOR 2025 I bet Schoen wont get much of a signing bonus....soley due to him being in rehab mode...H e may get a rater bonus at such and such a date tho into the yr if he is ready tho 6 hours ago, Brandon said: I wonder what our salary situation is this season? I wonder "if" we can do some creative math and use this years money to lower the salaries for the next few seasons for those 2 guys. well we have Biggies remainder...Most of Wilson and Fox...part of Schoen and Lawler...all of Lawson...and I would let rest of Woli sit on 6 game to close out season .that been off the books....so you would think whatever saving from that would be used as 2025 bonus paid this yr 31 minutes ago, bigg jay said: Clercius would be on a 3 year rookie deal (2 years plus a team option for the 3rd year) since he's a national. yup..we will have 2 more yrs of Clercius on the cheap....and Wilson/Wheatfall with another cheap yr...which helps

I have a hard time believing they are up against it. I honestly think things look good to bring a lot of guys back and pay them what they're worth. Renegotiate this year and use that 6 game money as signing bonuses yeah you read my mind...we should be alright....plus prob reason as to why we never nrought any vet in or made a deal....looking toward 2025 and using any savings this yr to off-set the 2025 SMS with parts of next yr used in 2024 Piggy 1 1

GCn20 Posted October 1 Report Posted October 1 (edited) Clercius still on the cheap, Dalton will take the obligatory shave because of his injury, and Lawler will likely have to take a shave as well due to production. I see absolutely no reason why we can't and wouldn't sign both guys and for a lot cheaper possible SMS hit than what we had going into this year. If I were a betting man I'd say Schoen at about 175k with minimal signing bonus but lots of games started bonus available. Lawler at about 180k...a fair deal for both sides imo. We keep both Wilson and Wheatfall and possibly go with extra IMP receiver next year. What a receiving corps that would be....Schoen, Lawler, Wilson, Wheatfall, Demski with Woli/Clercius rotating in to keep guys fresh or if ratio calls for it.

Schoen's strengths are what has been missing from our passing game all year. I don't care what Wilson and Wheatfall are capable of, they don't bring to the table of our receiving corps what Schoen does. Different styles entirely. Bigblue204 and Noeller 2

wbbfan Posted October 1 Report Posted October 1 Habba off for fox would be a huge win. Hope Adams is good to go. Wallace and feltmate will make for a tough call. Feltmate brings a lot on teams and blocking but Wallace would be our best G off the bench if any one goes down other than kola. I’d love to see a 30 front with woods fox and Adams. Good luck.

Goalie Posted October 1 Report Posted October 1 (edited) I don’t think they update their site very much. It’s pretty obvious they don’t. Wallace and Fox all listed on the 6 game there still. Scott still on the PR. Devin Adams still listed on the PR. It’s definitely not updated often. Edited October 1 by Goalie wbbfan 1
