Simek is definitely in the top 6 next season he was actually really good this year til he got hurt...perfect stay at home partner for Burns...if I was Wilson i might try to trade dillon here and lose donskoi and use that cash for Nyquist. Meier Couture Nyquist line has been money while Donskoi has been in DeBoers dog house

underpaid Labanc

agreed, he was the last one left and i used what I had. I wanna raise it, but maybe just reduce the term.

I would agree, except IDK if it's worth it to lose Donskoi and Dillon for just Nyquist, I'm thinking of maybe changing Donskoi for a cheaper option and locking up some of the guys here longer term - more cash to them.

The idea of NOT locking Timo up for as many years as possible at a reasonably low pricetag is just completely confusing to me - like, why on earth would you not lock him down for at least 5? And yeah, add another million at least to that Labanc salary - arbitration eligible or not, he's more than earned it.

And dude, Donskoi is gooooooooone. It makes me sad as hell because I love him and his Playoff Mode, but he's been in PDB's doghouse for literal months now and I don't think that one goal (no matter how great) is going to get him out of there. (I don't think he's ever going to be a high goal count kinda guy - he's a passer, not a shooter - but god forbid we play to that strength and try him as a center - neeeever gonna happen here.) Anyway, his fiancee didn't even try out for her spot on the 49ers cheer squad this year and I think it's at least partly because they both know the writing's on the wall

Just wanna know if these changes seem right to you, I appreciate your thoughts. This was about keeping as many guys as possible, not just having the best situation. So:

- Cut Donskoi (Gain 2.5 million)
-Change Labanc to 4x4 (lose 1 million)
- Add 1 million to Meier and lock up long term (lose 1-1.5 million)

Sound reasonable? We could add a cheap depth guy in there with some tinkering too if needed.

Thumbs up from me!
