No one's angry.  Just a lot of quibbling over exactly how awesome it is to have a legit QB all wrapped up for years to come.  😉

That gives me some faith in our little community on here. I seen 15 pages and immediately thought there’s gonna be some drama

Peripheral damage.

Daboll is likely gone, more so now.

 

Anybody in the NFL who can turn a "project" QB into this type of contract is going to be gone.

I think we all know Daboll is definitely a goner after this year. My worry though is that he ends up going to Miami and helps Tua

That may be true, Daboll might be gone next year, but honestly I think he's done for Josh all he needed to do.  Thankfully he was given the time (several seasons) to work with him and get him to the point where Josh can take it and run with it now - even if there's a new O coordinator.

We may have, but he just got a lot more expensive.

Well, we still don't have any TEs that can catch, so there's still that bit of drama waiting in the wings....

Jackson’s style of play is also completely baked into the Raven’s offense at this point, both in playcalling and personnel. Which makes him especially valuable to them.

You could argue its a disservice also.  If the wheels fall off its not a SF or IND situation where, where you only need one new piece.  Youre talking complete overhaul in OC/offense/personnel.  Not friendly

Not worried about that because he only leaves for a HC job and I think Flores has done a pretty good job with what he had to work with and is safe in Miami. 

 

On another line of thinking, it’s a darn good day for his agent! Don’t they get about 4% of the contract? That’s north of $10 mil over time.

If Josh's agent is on the west coast, that means the deal was done around midnight their time.

I think we could have waited, but I am pretty happy with the result. If it's an extension, he should be very affordable for the next few years and we should have a window.

would have cost us more to do the deal next year, most likely.

You might still think that, but that sentiment has changed in Miami.

 

His first year? Sure. They were tanking and he got the best out of a bad team.

 

But last year? It can be argued he bungled the QB situation, and then the classic "Win and In" against the Bills backups... and the backups hung 50 on him. YIKES!

 

He is in full on Prove It mode.

This is the key Im waiting to see confirmed. All reports sound like it's a new deal starting now. Would be kinda bummed about that one small thing, but I'd get over it quick.

PLUS, when you are dealing with that many digits, it’s like Vegas. There are no clocks, only adrenaline. This is the most important deal Beane will likely ever make with the most important guy you ever drafted. This is, in a way, a career defining player and deal for our GM. Josh is our cornerstone.

Absolutely wrong.  All reports it's a 6 year extension after the 5th year option.  ALL reports.

Truth. We’ve watched Allen all this time, odds are very high he hasn’t peaked yet. Never mind the growing rate of contracts paying him more, if he has a monster year he would of gotten 55 per possibly next year. They 100% got it right signing him now
