Bills give Josh Allen new deal

[baltcowboy]

You dont think Allens deal wont have void years or at least the flexibility build in for them to add void years if needed? Thats just the norm for big deals these days.

It doesn’t matter it’s about the guarantees.

Length of a contract certainly matters. Even the overall guaranteed money doesnt matter much until we see the details. A portion of that guaranteed money may not kick in until way down the road.

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

but it’s spread across 6 years so more flexibility

its 6 years 330. probably some of the years don't have guranteed money, so they can move on and not pay it.
yes, 6 years gives them a lot more flexibility, so probably why he would go for it. more guaranteed money for him, longer years for the team for flexibility

Good for him. With the crap team they put around him he might as well enjoy the money because Bills don’t seem to care about putting a good one around him.

It’s a shame. He’s a dang goid player and they can’t get past KC. But I do love those bills-chiefs playoff games. They never disappoint

Yeah they are always a good matchup and I’m afraid Gus best chance was last year. Bills have a good foundation with Cooks, Shakir and Allen. He needs another dog at receiver. Might have to come in the draft

250 for Allen and 231 for Dak. Dak has void years that will make it 6 years. Stop it.

Ok if they don’t play out the contracts and play the same amount of years dak cost less. So you live in fantasy land. Allen is younger and seems more durable and it’s 6 years not void years by your logic just put 10 void years on Allen’s contract.

You hang your hat on guarantees, as that seems to be your justification for Dak's money..... at least with Allen, pretty much everyone says he's worth it....unlike our no.4.

Yup. Impossible to build a team with that much cap $$$.

Just like us.

These contracts will continue to rise. Justification??? Man I am just pointing out that Dak’s contract isn’t as crazy as you haters make it out to be.

In Allen's case, the 'rise' can be attributed to him being by far the better player: arm, legs, and doesn't come with the 1000 yard stare when trailing.
It's about value for contract....and there's nothing about the Dak contract that isn't crazy.

 

[cowboyjoe12]

Just $55 AAV? 250 guaranteed over 6 years isn’t bad at all for buffalo.

This needs to be shoved in daks face and daks agent face

 

[CowboyoWales]

Good for him. With the crap team they put around him he might as well enjoy the money because Bills don’t seem to care about putting a good one around him.

But that's the difference and why you pay him, because he always gives you a chance....regardless of what's around him. He always leads from the front.

The problem is that his contract is crazy because better players are signing for less even with a higher salary cap.

He's right though. I get it. You want another reason to dislike the guy. But the guarantees matter far more than AAV.

 

[cowboyjoe12]

It also needs to be shoved in Stephen Jones face to

I mean you pay him because he's a QB and QB's are hard to find.

But to think just because he's skilled means he should work harder than other QB's? I just don't agree with that. Pepople use it as a slight to Hurts. Eagles built the team they were suppose to. Allen's contract isn't an excuse to give him crap.

Exactly, quarterbacks that have taken their teams to playoffs, championship games, which shows that Stephen Jones is a powder puff to agents

No, the fact that Allen's worth his money (whilst Dak isn't) is what matters.

I don't get what you're actually trying to say there (neither do you probably).
Bottom line Allen's worth the contract as he leads the team, Dak doesn't deserve his because of.....well it'll take too long to list the reasons.

Blame Jerry and Stephen, they are the ones who played games all offseason last year only to cave hours before the season started.
