Will Josh Allen want to stick around for a rebuild?

I think Josh needs to a bit more vocal about the direction the team is heading. Jim Kelly would've let his feelings known rather clearly

This is dumb.  The Bills are never going to do a true hard reset with Josh Allen still in his prime.

 

It's

 

Not

 

Happening

 

Beane (or whoever our GM is) can certainly get more aggressive with our retooling.  But a hard rebuild isn't in the cards for probably the next 5+ years at least.

 

Josh Allen will be in Buffalo as the QB of the Buffalo Bills for the foreseeable future.

I like this but I'm not entirely sure I agree with it.  At the end of last season I would have agreed with this 100%.  Now I'm not so sure.  For this to be true that Allen will spend his career in Buffalo no one needs to be fired but a hard reorientation of the teams priority's from the D to the O must happen.  And this includes  a new offensive strategy not predicated on protecting the D and aggressive drafting and FA signings of offensive players.

Josh Allen isn't going anywhere.

 

Pegula loves Daboll. Josh lives Daboll.

 

And here's the thing: McDermott is the type of guy who could put bygones aside for the good of everyone and the goal of winning it all.

 

He has also grown as a coach since the first time around.

 

I would say it's definitely possible if Daboll doesn't get a HC gig this off-season. Way more likely than many think.

 

The one to say no might actually be Daboll, not McDermott

Allen is signed until 2030 and then we could franchise him up to 3 times. So that brings us to 2033 and Allen at 38 yrs old.  Bills hold all the cards with Allen honestly and his style of play I really can't see him playing too far past his mid 30's.

I'm hink a lot of current top QBs will play past 40.

 

Mostly because they can't do this later. Other ventures will always be there. Plus the money only gets crazier. 

 

Health, fitness, rules of the game, better treatments, all will lead to most guys playing a lot longer.

Josh Allen wants to win a SB more than anything else in football.  He is not going to force or demand a trade any time soon.  I spoke with his mom at the ACC Golf Tournament for a while in July, and she said outside family and his wife, nothing matters more to him than the city of Buffalo.  He truly feels he was put here, that his fate and path were shaped, for him to land in Buffalo.  

 

I can assure you, there is no thoughts in his head of leaving Buffalo.  Maybe real late in his career things could change, but I would be stunned if he got to a place where he wanted to be traded until much later in his career if he still hasn't won one and the team isn't close.
