27 is just a little too less imo. And you would think they would have more money with the merger.

They might have 27 signed riders and 3 trainees right?  I think they know 27 is a low number when they have all those races in USA as well.

Garmin is clearly stepping down as a sponsor and Vaughters himself said the budget secured for next year is around as big as it was for this year. |

Yep. Vaughters himself stated Sagan's yearly salary at Tinkov would fund more than half of his new team. So yeah...

Did he mean half of the whole sum, or sum of the cheaper half of his riders? |

Dylan Groenewegen is linked to BMC. According to his manager he has received a contract offer.
At the same time his current team De Rijke has applied for a ProConti license. |

Yeah, my favourite signing from that Canondale merge. It appears that he will ride Giro next year. A guy, who is 21 and his first year as a pro, finishes 7th in Tour de Suisse and has plenty of top10 results in lesser races. That's a sign of exceptional talent and he can be securing results already, what is not common for such a young rider.
If it is me to decide, I would fill the remaining 5 spots in the team with Acevedo, Bauer, Howes, Morton and Vansummeren (though I'm not sure about Morton, I'm baffled by his results this year). But if they are to sign anybody from outside, some of them will have to go what makes me sad. I was also hoping they would give someone like Gavin Mannion or Carter Jones a chance, but it's becoming less likely.
Vaughters said that the only Canondale rider that has already signed a deal for 2015 is Formolo. The rest got an offer but are free to leave elsewhere if they want. There's hope Marangon (I look like his hater now, LOL)i signs elsewhere, but honestly I can't believe he will get any better offer. |

Groenewegen is a big talent 
Is there a limit to the numbers of ProConti teams? A lot of teams want that status next year: Roompot Orange, Cyclingteam De Rijke, 4-72 Colombia, Team Stolting, Vini Fantini Nippo...
most of them are not strong enough right now

There is no limit for Pro Conti teams.

I would want Acevedo, Farrar, Howes, King, and Joe Dombrowski if they can get him on the market. otherwise, fill Vansummeren in that spot.

You mean that Canondale's Edward King? Ben King has already secured a contract for 2015. He signed for two years last year. Edward King is possibly the last American WT rider I would like to see in this team.
George Bennett is a Canondale rider I would consider apart from the eight that had a contract for 2015. I would love them to sign someone like Konig, but I don't think they have enough money.
Dombrowski would be a cool signing. I have nothing against.
Only 7 native English speaking riders have a contract so far. Far the least in the team's history. Too bad, because I really have a soft spot for Anglophone riders. I really hope at least 2 or 3 of those guys will join.
What kind of rider (speciality) is Bettiol? It's hard to read too much from his results. |

Oh I thought Ben King was without one. No much then.
Also, they would never sign Konig, because eh hates Talansky.

Is it because of that TdF crash?

NetApp (Bora) extends with Schillinger, Voss and Barta.
So it`s those three plus Bennett, Dempster, Schorn, Benedetti, Huzarski, Mendes for sure at the moment.
They are planning to have 20 riders next season of which up to 7 are supposed to be new riders.
König will surely leave, while Machado is not sure yet I think. With Konrad, Krieger, Mühlberger they have promising talents as well. |
