What do the teams with their QB1's coming up do if they don't re-sign them? Do what the Jets did?
These teams are not setting the price, these agents are. They know what options these GM's have and if a team is like Buffalo with the second coming of Kelly with Allen's popularity with the fans, good job done because that is part of it with some of these teams and I think BAL and CLE are in the same boat. The fans love those QB's and Mayfield has done an incredible job of immersing himself in everything Cleveland, even his commercials.
Not every team makes more money every year just because they exist, they have to market their team and what is the added value of a QB like Allen or Mayfield to BUF or CLE? It's priceless and both of those teams realize they cannot let that player get away. GB and SEA realize that as well.
With the Cowboys, you get something different because being the DC QB makes itself a little just because of the nature of the team and that position. But you have an additional little quirk that forced the Joneses to do what they did. Think we are the only ones that know they struggle picking that position? Think Booger doesn't consider what might be if he had pulled off that trade to get Lynch or picked Cook? Sometimes, you have to be grateful for what you've got.
And not one of you folks had a workable option instead of re-signing Prescott and neither did the Joneses. It was never a question of if but how much.
