Tyrod him self said his agent spoke to teams at the combine. Not officially, but they absolutely knew the interest around the league.
I sincerely doubt anyone would have given him a deal with term or security.
I have been told that this is exactly what Tyrod wanted and him and his agent won't this negotiation.
Either way you slice it, buffalo isn't making a major roll of the dice with Tyrod. They shaved off years for a reason. They structured the money so that they could walk away easily for a reason.
Barring some miracle run by Tyrod, I would strongly suggest paying attention to the potential specs coming out in the 2018 draft.
Newton was far from that come draft time. There were plenty of detractors with him only having one full season of Division 1 ball. Yes, he played at Blinn and dominated, but there was plenty of sceptics.
As far as Luck, he was the "generational" talent, and even then some thought RG3 was the better PROSPECT.
Funny, now there is a debate if Winston/Mariota are better than Luck.
