bills6969 Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 I imagine the FO will work on a new, long-term deal with Allen this off-season. I’m thinking it will be 10 yearish 400m packed with incentives like Mahomes deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2o Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 If he keeps it up through this whole season then I would expect something to get done early next year. Technically we still have him under contract for two more years after this season being they will certainly pick up the 5th year option. The figures will be astronomical is he keeps it up at this rate and gets a taste of some playoff success as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artem Lipatov Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Buddy Nix would sign him right now after 4 good games and we'd receive a new Fitzmagic. Mahomes won MVP his first playing season and won Super Bowl next year. What else must he prove?

Greg S Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 I would imagine after the season. Speaking of new deals what about Beane? McDermott got his extension a while back. I would have thought Beane would have gotten his deal by now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrbojanglezs Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 (edited) He cannot be signed this year as it has not been 3 years yet per the CBA. Hopefully he takes a more team friendly deal like Brady did all those years so we can still keep a good team around him.

I've been a huge Allen guy since draft day, but he's got to stay consistent this season and carry it through next season to sniff 10 yrs/400 million. His 5th year option will be picked up either way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lieutenant Aldo Raine Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Hard to say; best guess is probably after next year.

If you believe that he’s the guy you take that shot and open your wallet. The Bills will certainly monitor the rest of this year and potentially even the offseason but I’d be shocked if he went into 2021 without an extension. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he finishes this year the way he started it, he will get a new deal before next season. The price will only go up, and the leverage of paying early will only go down. Tre looks like a great deal by signing him when we did. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. K Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 (edited) IF (big if, if you didn't see it) he wins the MVP this offseaon he will get locked up. If it tails off or there is a playoff loss in rd 1 or 2 (IF the Bills get home field) Beane might wait and hit him with the 5th year option to work in other deals. They are smart and Josh wants to win. I dont think he is asking for 40 mil unless he gets a ring and/or mvp. I love this team. Go Bills.

Not true. I don’t think for a moment Beane would pull the trigger in that deal. JA is his guy. I think there may be a few others around the league that would ride with Josh as well. again... I am not saying JA is in the same class as PM YET. No MVP. No super bowl. I get all that. Just saying the upside seems almost limitless for JA.

BuffBillsForLife Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 Assuming his play stays at around the same level for the rest of the season, expect him to sign a deal at least as valuable as Watson's after this season. Anyone talking about how he should take a "hometown discount" can use their time machines to go back to when Ralph was alive and running the team.
