Understood, I hope he stays hungry and proves it! I’d love nothing more than to be the one to give it to him.

Kiara, can you patch me through to Anthony?

Mr. Campanelli, a pleasure as always. We worked with Elisha a lot this season and I’m excited to see his continued growth. We plan on continuing to develop him through training camp and into next year. So with that in mind, how does 3 years at $2m and $0.5m bonus sound?

Fuggettaboutit! You got a deal, Paisan

GM Evans · « **Reply #3252 on:** September 25, 2020, 07:39:57 PM »

I'm sure we'll talk again soon, Anthony. Thank you.

Kiara, am I able to talk to Coach Baker now or are coaches only taking calls from teams looking to steal them away?

Talon · « **Reply #3253 on:** September 25, 2020, 11:24:55 PM »

Coaches are on their vacations sir, nobody for us to talk to.

GM Evans · « **Reply #3254 on:** September 28, 2020, 11:47:22 PM »

Thanks, Kiara. Can you get me Mr. Shapiro, please?

Bobby! Pleasure to get the chance to speak with you again. I wanted to talk about bringing Raymond Santos back into the fold for a few more years. How does 3 years at $1.75m sound?

Talon · « **Reply #3255 on:** September 29, 2020, 01:09:20 AM »

Maybe if the market doesn't develop, but right now we're seeking $5MM

GM Evans · « **Reply #3256 on:** September 29, 2020, 02:56:44 AM »

I understand. He’ll have a place here if he chooses.

Kiara, can you get me Amber Molina, please?

Ms. Molina, I hope you’re doing well. Was wondering if Harry Bethea was interested in sticking around and continuing to do his thing here in Lincoln for a few more years - say 3 years, $1m?

Talon · « **Reply #3257 on:** September 29, 2020, 10:55:43 PM »

We'll consider it, but we can't sign right now.

GM Evans · « **Reply #3258 on:** September 30, 2020, 11:33:54 AM »

Understood. Thanks, Amber.

Kiara, let’s talk to Kelvin again.

Hey, Mr. Hart. Wanted to talk to you about one more RFA. Was hoping to get Earle Reardon back for a couple more seasons. 2 years, $750k?

Talon · « **Reply #3259 on:** September 30, 2020, 12:04:42 PM »

Yeah man, we'll take that deal.

GM Evans · « **Reply #3260 on:** September 30, 2020, 01:52:29 PM »

Good deal. Thanks, Kelvin!

Kiara, get me the Contract Negotiator, please.

Hey, JTC! Pleasure to speak to you again, was hoping to keep Jeffrey Lombardi here in Lincoln for the next few years. 3 years, 500k?

Talon · « **Reply #3261 on:** September 30, 2020, 02:31:36 PM »

You're not going to get anyone to take a league minimum deal before the free for all, after UFA. Just a little Agent to GM PSA.

GM Evans · « **Reply #3262 on:** September 30, 2020, 02:37:17 PM »

That’s fair, I wasn’t thinking. Bump it up to $750k.

Talon · « **Reply #3263 on:** September 30, 2020, 02:58:11 PM »

We'll let you know shortly.

GM Evans · « **Reply #3264 on:** September 30, 2020, 03:56:28 PM »

Roger that, James. Thank you.

Hey Kiara, I need to speak to Amber again.

Ms. Molina, apologies for calling you back again so quickly. But I wanted to run something by you before just doing it, as I know some people don’t appreciate the decision. I’m contemplating placing the franchise tag on Sergio so that we can begin negotiating a new contract to keep him here in Lincoln. Is that something you guys are down for?

Talon · « **Reply #3265 on:** September 30, 2020, 04:53:09 PM »

After the day I've had with your fellow GM's you'd better be sure that you're willing to be in the right ballpark for Sergio. Not trying to low ball us and waste my time. By rule we can't exchange figures until he's tagged because he is a UFA otherwise, but if you're ready to tag him to make a deal, then lets go.

GM Evans · « **Reply #3266 on:** September 30, 2020, 10:04:58 PM »

Thanks again, Ms. Molina. I hope things are better for you tomorrow. I’m sure we’ll be in touch again soon.

Sorry to have you dialing the same numbers repeatedly, Kiara. Mr Hart again.

Kelvin, I’m sorry it’s taken this long to make this call, it seems like there was a mix up on the paperwork. I want to talk about bringing Thomas Troy back for the next few years. He really impressed last year and I’m excited to continue working on his development. Does 4 years at $2m and $500k bonus sound like it’s in the ballpark?

Talon · « **Reply #3267 on:** September 30, 2020, 10:10:35 PM »

We'll consider it, but I was looking for $4MM a year in total money.

GM Evans · « **Reply #3268 on:** October 01, 2020, 10:33:31 AM »

I don't think that's too far off. Let's do it, but I'd like an extra year. 5 years, $3m, $1m bonus. Fair?

Talon · « **Reply #3269 on:** October 01, 2020, 12:40:56 PM »

Done.

Talon · « **Reply #3270 on:** **Today** at 12:46:09 AM »

Hello, We have 12 open roster spots with 27.9MM in salary and 7MM in bonus money.
