The quicker you get in (if you know he's the guy, of course) the cheaper the price tag is. What would it cost to re-sign him now, versus what would it cost if he were to go out and win the Super Bowl this year? Not saying he's going to, but you can see how that value can balloon. Expand How did you miss the entire first page saying YOU LITERALLY CAN'T EXTEND HIM YET PER CBA RULES? Also we have no idea how the salary cap is going to shake out so it's not the right time to do it even if we could.

Expand I wasn't compared quarterbacks at all. Merely that it's too early to throw $$$ at him, just like when we did the same with Fitzy. Fitzy needed more games to justify that payday. Nothing to do with talent level.

machine gun kelly Posted November 11, 2020 Posted November 11, 2020 I assumed Dawk. Why I tried to beat to the quick. I feel like Yolo for a hot second.
TheyCallMeAndy Posted November 11, 2020 Posted November 11, 2020 Only think tanking harder than the Jets is the cap for next year, Bills should wait a season or two.

hmsmystic Posted November 11, 2020 Posted November 11, 2020 Josh Allen is playing great for sure. However I never understand why fans root for QBs to get these obscene contracts- are you related to him? The $30 million + contract will be a huge drain on the Bills resources for years. It becomes hard to retain top talent with a bloated QB contract (see Rams, Eagles, Seahawks, etc.) The longer the Bills can hold off paying Josh like this the better for the team- it's not personal it's just business. Use the QB rookie deal window for as long as possible 1

Expand Um, No. What the Bills are waiting for is what they should be waiting for: Josh is under contract for 4 years, with an option for a 5th year. Assuming he continues to develop, now is the time to add pieces, not to unnecessarily take a huge salary cap hit. It's in neither of their interests, ultimately, to sign a contract now.
