stephen jones said as much. they could have had him at about 30M average, but he was being tough negotiator, while giving in to Zeke's demands....This is why you don't hit the panic button and just wait and watch the market climb. This is also why you don't wait to sign a player you're sure is a franchise player.
Conjecture.Buffalo signed an elite quarterback in the making.
We didn't.
What the hell are you talking about4th behind a running back.
How on Earth are they going to build a team around him?
I meant before that.stephen jones said as much. they could have had him at about 30M average, but he was being tough negotiator, while giving in to Zeke's demands....
I was being ultra sarcasticLike others have in the past, restructuring of contracts including Allen contract to free up cash to be able to retain some key players and FA. Teams would not do these deals if they felt there was no way to get other deals done.
Rising cap because of the TV/steaming deals and any contending team will have to have a wunderkind QB on his rookie deal or be paying in that 43M range.How on Earth are they going to build a team around him?
that's how NFL works, those above him, got contracts sooner, now they are up for renegotiation, so its a cycle...give it a couple of years, with Jackson, Mayfield, Burrow, Rodgers, Wilson all coming up in the next 2 years.daks got 160mil guaranteed? less years ...no trade clauses etc..it still far more then qbs above him..
You said MVP candidate. He was behind Henry, whom is a RB.What the hell are you talking about
he has no rings...why is it well deserved?Well deserved.

They made this all about the QB with their rules changes, now they can pay for it.
Allen is still a pretty mobile QB and takes his hits, what happens if he's sidelined? Building around him won't be the issue.

LOL, no he wasntYou said MVP candidate. He was behind Henry, whom is a RB.
oh be quiet....facts don't matter...he needs something to do his dak bashing so let him be.Dak only got $126M guaranteed.
No they wasn't. You're not going to find many people that would believe that.
If you look at it most would agree that his rookie season was the best version of him we've seen.
I am just saying Allen has had one great season as did Dak. One isnt deserving of a contract and one is in your eyes. Im keeping this simple for you. Do you not see the flaw in your logic?You just can't do it can ya? You can't see past that Star.
Dak isn't going to see this, ya know? He's not going to get mad at you for looking at things objectively. In fact, he doesn't even know you exist.
He was one game away from the big one while finishing 2nd in the MVP voting in year 3.he has no rings...why is it well deserved?
this was a smart move on their part. 6 year deal that allows them to push money to the back end and renegotiate. cap is expected to jump significantly, in the neighbourhood of 20-25% is the estimates by 2023.....How on Earth are they going to build a team around him?
I don’t think Lamar gets Allen money myself
