Ahhhhhh yes, the ONE outlier ever. He also could because he wasn’t the bread winner in his own family! If you ever listen to the players, they NEVER want their teammates taking less money than what they can get. They want their teammates to get paid. Pay Josh what he is worth, don’t think that he’s going to take some sort of hometown discount because he seems like that kind of guy. I’m telling you if you short change your quarterback, guys know and guys don’t want to play for teams that are cheap
I don't know if I entirety believe this. They say they want everyone to get paid, but they want to get paid too. There's only so much to go around. And I don't believe that other players wouldn't want to play here if Josh Allen willingly took less money in order to give more to his teammates. I think they would respect him more. It's not the team that's cheap. They're still paying to the salary cap, it's just one players decision to drop his overall cap percentage to the benefit of his teammates and friends.

NFLPA won’t let him. Expect a top 5 deal within 5 mil per of the max
Is this a real thing? I realize they could prefer he took what he was worth, but in the end it's his choice. I believe it will be close. And I believe Beane will give him what he's worth. I was just curious if he might to be willing in one shape or another to help create a dynasty.

If you are working for a for-profit company (not a nonprofit/charity), in which you had no financial interest or ownership, would you take an employer-friendly compensation package?
If I had the choice between making 40 million a year and going to 0 Superbowls and 30 million a year and going to 9 like Brady and be immortalized forever, I would probably choose the latter. With 3 or 400 million, you could allow generations of your family to live comfortably. I realize nothing is guaranteed. He could take a team friendly deal and still go to zero.

Frack, frack, frack
It's not the money that's the issue. It's the salary cap and staying competitive. The Pegulas will have to pay the salary cap regardless who they pay it to.

No, no, no, no, and no. It’s not his job to make the deal team friendly-don’t go cheap on your quarterback. Guys around the league watch that stuff. He might go 5-10 million less if he gets a bunch more guaranteed, but he’s not taking $30 million if the other guys are getting $40+ million now
Brady did. The GOAT was far below his market value.

I think he would take a cut here and there to obtain an extra player some years. I don't think he would take under market out of the gate, and I don't blame him.
If he holds out that's on the front office, pay the man.
I don't think Josh Allen would ever consider holding out. That's not in his DNA. I mean under outlandish circumstances anything is possible, but not with this Administration.

What do you consider 'team friendly' ? Structure sometimes is as important as dollars.
I would almost be willing to roll the dice with him and give him an unprecedented amount guaranteed and signing bonus to lower the contract amount and just hope for the best.

Would the team ever even consider approaching him about something like this? Or would that be disrespectful? Or would Josh Allen himself have to actually suggest it?
-
I'm being a little facetious. I realize it probably won't be half a billion, but Mahomes got 450 million. Does Josh need 45 million a year or would he be ok with 40 or 35 or even 30? Or is that completely outside the realm of possibility?
-
Is this possible?
Could or would Josh Allen take a below market value contract like Tom Brady did for the benefit of his team?
I know it seems silly at face value but Josh is cut from a different cloth. He is a consumate team player and genuinely a good person and cares about his team and teammates. To build a dynasty and further gain the respect of his teammates would he ever consider this?
I'm sure his agent wouldn't be happy but I don't think money is Josh Allen's primary driving focus. To be able to keep Milano, Williams, and even pay his friend Diggs?
I mean seriously, when is enough enough? Does it have to be 500 million? Isn't 350 million or 400 million enough to live comfortably for the rest of his life? Would the rest of the league, particularly the quarterbacks be critical of him for doing this? I'm just curious what everyone's take is? And if so, what would he be willing to accept?

He has shown he wants to be a HC. He interviewed for the Cleveland job last year.
Root for a SB win and Daboll get the HC job he wants, and McDermott hires a new OC who brings in an even more dynamic offense.This isn't entirely true. A lot of coaches interview just for the "experience" in case they ever decide they do seriously want to consider taking a job. In fact I'm sure McDermott encourages coaches to interview as "experiencing" the interview process can be invaluable.
My question is what is the draw? I'm serious. I realize there's only 32 NFL head coaches. But there's also only 32 NFL offensive coordinators. And with the added benefit of this being his home town, raising his kids here, his family being here, being in an extremely well run organization with a franchise QB and with the possibility of building a dynasty. Why would you want to leave? He could be eternally immortalized here with the likes of Levy, Polian, Kelly. With multiple Superbowl rings. Or he could go to another team and fail miserably through no fault of his own and have that on his resume.
Is it just money? Or power? Or ego? What is the motivation? Because if it's just money, give him a raise. I know I would prefer to stay and build a New England type dynasty right here in Western New York.

I think it might have been bad juju putting it in Kansas City, but not New England.

Who is next best 3-4 defensive end and how many sacks did he have?

Not Mahomes. Not anyone. 32 out of 32 GMs would take Mahomes right now and while I can't blame them they're all wrong.
I disagree with this. I don't believe Beane or McDermott or Daboll would take Mahomes over Allen right now. And there might be a few more GM's that might actually prefer Allen.

It’s idiotic. I have no idea how it’s “fun”. Usually threads this silly occur only in the off-season...
How about this for a suggestion. Don't click on it. Or don't read it. Or don't respond. Better yet, just go away and be miserable somewhere else.

Josh was with Wilson for a few seconds after the game and although I knew he was ‘bigger’, I was surprised at the differential in height and size. He looked like a giant and I think those extra inches will be a big help in identifying and handling the blitz packages.
This guy is just getting going.
It can all happen this year.
The difference is quite a lot.

Buffalo Boy is 100% correct and JoshAllenHasBigHands not so much.

Gronkowski and Brady are also good pals outside of the gridiron. Brady praised his friend’s penis as “amazing” while talking with Howard Stern in April. Later that month, the University of Arizona alum told Andy Cohen that it did “kind of surprise” him to hear Brady talk about his manhood, but he was ultimately flattered.
“Oh man,” Gronkowski said. “Well, he did describe [mine] as looking ‘amazing,’ which I think is the biggest compliment in my career, along with playing with Tom.”

Would Josh Allen ever consider a team friendly contract?
