snafu Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Darnold is likely to be traded. So my question is whether his new team is able to extend him for a fifth year. I think probably yes. Depending on the team, coaches, etc., I can see someone wanting to hold him for a longer look. He’s not good right now but neither are his coaches or his teammates.

That four-year, $128 million extension, which seemed like a bargain for an MVP-caliber field general at the time, suddenly looks like an albatross around the neck of the franchise. Wentz's durability concerns and on-field regression have led to much debate over whether the Eagles selected the right quarterback " Allen was Wentz2, so many similarities. Hopefully Allen is more like a Rothlesberger2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaska Darin Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 I would pay Allen a ton. I wouldn't touch any of the rest of them. I love Lamar Jackson but he has RG3 written all over him and giving him a long term deal for Top 3 QB money could likely blow the team right into long term cap hell. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be fun following the game of brinkmanship. It's a predictable process. Agents list top paid QB's. Agents forecast future market based on rising salary cap. Agents and GMs argue a little about where their guy fits among the top at the position and length of deal. GM's cave as they can't give up their guy, especially a QB. Lamar will be very wealthy and in the NFL market he's deserving of a big contract. He's having a slightly off year so far passing, pretty good though and over 500 yards rushing is big.

Taro T Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Allen is definitely going to be worth that break the bank deal.. Hopefully they can get him to take a Marsha Cheatriot type deal where they give him a bit less than he's worth with an understanding that they'll keep renegotiating deals to keep him getting a ton of cash but still leaving cap room available to let him still have quality teammates. (The Pegulas having a ton of other businesses probably give them the opportunity to help him (unofficially of course) have side businesses like Marsha to keep his overall income keeping up w/ the Jones, er, Mohomeses. Expecting Baltimore will give Jackson a huge deal. Not sure if it'll bite them in the bippy or not. Expect Mayfield to end up with the unearned mega deal that ends up biting them. Darnold could still become a real QB, but expect that happens at least 2 stops from now. Best case, he's Rich Gannon. Worse case, he's Josh Rosen. Rosen - could have a long career as a clipboard holder if carrying 3 QBs comes back in vogue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that another team wouldn't grab him in an instant if Baltimore did not pay him, I am just curious what his contract will end up being (is his mom still his agent? Or did he get a real one?)

Boyst Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 If I was seeking a football player for 2 years I'd sign Lamar Jackson. If I was seeking a quarterback to play for my team is sign Allen. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect that's the Ravens end game with Lamar. The Ravens don't want to commit to a long term deal, so franchise Lamar for a year or two until they either find a replacement or somebody offers a ton of draft picks 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
