He is right up there with Sam Bradford who made like 130mill over 8-9 seasons somehow. Bradford made 1.25 million per TD while playing in the league. https://fanbuzz.com/nfl/sam-bradford-net-worth/ Edited March 7, 2022 by Real McNasty 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virgil Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 This should spark a great conversation. Stafford, who never won anything before this year vs Cousins who hasn't won anything and many believe is a 1st/2nd round playoff QB at best. But the reality of it is, there are plenty of teams out there that would pay them 40 mil and not blink. Imagine Cousins on the 49ers? They are possibly in the Super Bowl with him. We knew Josh would be a bargain sooner rather than later 7 minutes ago, Shaw66 said: Sure thing. Cousins definitely to cash in this time, since he's only earned $160 MILLION so far! Yeah, but think about inflation. He's got to be able to feed his wife and kids 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a blurb about Stafford that mentions Cousins; https://www.nbcsportsedge.com/football/nfl/player/2679/matthew-stafford Here's a link to an article about the Cousin's negotiations; https://www.marca.com/en/nfl/minnesota-vikings/2022/03/05/6222ba8246163f53b78b456f.html It is expected to be a 3-4 year deal for Stafford. Makes Josh's 6 year extension at an average of $42 million a year look better every day. I think this is going to be a recurring theme as more and more QBs take their turn at the NFL QB money trough. We basically robbed Josh blind. We got the best QB in the NFL for cheap. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's not get carried away here..........it's not like they locked him up at that figure for a decade like KC did with Mahomes..........that gives KC a lot more flexibility to make adjustments to his deal to create cap room. When they have to........have to........re-visit Allen's deal in the next few years time the new market will be $60M+ and then the years they add on will either have to be at those aav's or Allen will have to take a discount. We should hope that he turns into the greatest product shill ever in the meantime so he might be inclined to take a bit less. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, good for him. It's a business, as we're often told. He has made a TON of money. Good for him. But he is definately not mediocre. He has top 10 stats. He isn't elite because he doesn't have that clutch gene or the ability to put the team on his back in key situations, but he throws for a lot of yards and TD's and he is an efficient passer. 1 hour ago, Billzgobowlin said: This is going to be unsustainable.

Wasn't true then and it isn't true now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KGun12TD Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 Look, I don't think Cousins deserves 15 mil/yr, however, this guys is great at getting paid and you can't fault him. The teams that pays him are at fault. Mediocrity at its best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dollars 2 donuts Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 (edited) If he plays that long he is going to walk out of this career at 40 with just under a half billion dollars ($487 million...262 by the end of 2022 and another 225 if he signs a 5 year, 45 million dollar per deal).

Lv-Bills Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 Cousins in the 40s.......lmao. Let's just hope the team stupid enough to do it is in the AFC. They'll instantly become a non threat for the duration he's on their team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy has banked $161 million already for being totally mediocre. Hey, good for him. It's a business, as we're often told. Isn't it interesting that the guys that paid him big money are no longer in their jobs. Bad cap management leads to a bad roster, a bad win/loss record, and a change in the front office. Good teams seem to know when to let guys walk and when to pay. Like most of the comments on this board, the Allen contract looks pretty good at this point in time. Beane continues to make more good decisions than bad ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
