BarleyNY Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 And we haven't seen the guaranteed money, structure and outs yet. Anyone praising or panning the deal without this information simply doesn't know what they are talking about. True. We can just speculate at this point.

Kirby Jackson Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 I've seen a lot of things in the past 2 hours. Got anything definitive? I linked the article from Schefter once I found it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaaadThingsMan Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Have on NFL on ESPN, dont know who the two "experts" are...but they were killing TT for taking this deal...termed it a year to year...so guess that means reallly good for the Bills. They mentioned something about a $10M buyout after year one and another buyout after year 3....but was only on in bachkground so could be wrong Edit..Dan Grazziano and Jim Trotter talking heads without seeing the terms it sounds like TT is willing to prove it year over year, risky move if so. There has to be some incentive clause that allows him to guarantee more years and or money in there somewhere, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Quietly disrespectful. It's certainly a team friendly deal. I get it from TT's perspective too. He is getting an extra $12M or whatever but the Bills really protected themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangarang Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Looks Ike a great deal for us. All i wanted to see in an extension was flexibility for us if it didn't work out and it looks like we got that. Could be a bargain if he gets better.

CommonCents Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 I'm sorry. I didn't realize English isn't your first language.

26CornerBlitz Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 @SalSports Most know, but incase you were wondering, Tyrod Taylor's new deal does start this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that is really well said Ryan!! It's tough for anyone to not be okay with this as its being reported. It was the kind of deal that if you could get him to take you would be happy to do it. They aren't married yet but they moved into together to see how things work. just wait - if he plays lights out this year we get YEARS of PTR telling us about how unfair it would be to tyrod not to give him a raise.

Ronin Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 I haven't seen anything official yet, but Rodak was on ESPN and said the team could get out of the deal as soon as one year. That would seem strange to me. If Taylor's convinced that he'll be better, why would he sign a deal like that? Either way, I envision no scenario now whereby Taylor sees his play diminish and we draft a QB in round 1. Can't wait to see the numbers on this, but I have a feeling that the fans' "interpretation" of what's been said and reality are two different things. This place is the most sunshine-rainbows-and-lollipops of any Bills forums out there. It would have been wise, not that our FO is, to have at least seen how TT performed for 5 or 6 games before giving him a contract that in all likelihood prevents us from moving on a QB in a draft next year that should have several worthy of selecting, including Chad Kelly.

sullim4 Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 OT, but this thread is an example of why I hate it when speculation threads turn into news threads... you have to wade through pages of outdated discussion, leaks, and bickering until you find the spot where the most recent news got reported.
