Tasker & Brown don't know the cap rules
ColoradoBills replied to Albany,n.y.'s topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I would think that most teams don't want to pay out too much cash in signing bonuses the first year. Only a handful of contracts are more than 5 years and for those (especially the high $ ones) there is other ways to give players guaranteed money. I've noticed signing bonuses are going down (in % of total contract) and Option and Roster Bonuses are going up. -
Zimmer epitomizes the hungry hard working guys that Beane and McDermott like to have around in camp and the PS. It seems to me that his chances lie in beating out Butler for a job. I don't care (and I think OBD feels the same way) if Butler took a cut in pay. It's about being able to help the team more than the other guy. Any way you cut it Butler will be gone after this year anyway.

With a decent performance this year I suspect the Spotrac prediction of 6 year at $14M is probably pretty spot on. The first couple of years would be in the $12M category and IF the guaranteed money wasn't too steep I can see that happening. If Beane and the Bills don't want to sign him for that some other team probably will. They went 6 years due to his young age and would be 30 years old at the end of the contract. If Edmunds did a "Milano" type deal which was a bit team friendly I would cut off $1M per. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/tremaine-edmunds-25111/market-value/

Around the League Training Camp Thread
ColoradoBills replied to Buffalo Boy's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yes, they actually thought McCarron could play at least a half season and were wrong. Jets went into the draft with no QBs at all. Bills were lucky that Josh handled it pretty well. We will see how Wilson does. -

The Jets went into this with Zach Wilson penciled in as the starter. He is struggling so they signed Josh Johnson a couple of days ago. It's going to be interesting to see how the summer progresses. My guess even if Wilson isn't ready they throw him to the lions. -

The only QB in camp for the Jets that has thrown an NFL pass is Josh Johnson. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/J/JohnJo05.htm -
My favorite Steeler.

How many people don't like Allen's new deal?

"Other Josh" is cheap. -
How many people don't like Allen's new deal?
ColoradoBills replied to mjd1001's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The contract is set up perfectly to move salary money into restructured money in 2025 and 2026. If Josh is still tearing it up it will give him some guaranteed money in his final 2 years which are only $40M per. I'm laughing while typing "only $40M" but in 2028 bridge QBs will be making 30-35 million. -
Where are the roster battles?
ColoradoBills replied to GunnerBill's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This RB competition is heating up. From all the reports I've read here about Williams it could get interesting. I'm expecting him to take a lot of snaps in preseason. If he doesn't make the team (which right now seems likely) I sure hope he slips to the PS. I hope that because next year could be his time to make the team outright. He's my longshot player. -
Using the $43M average Josh will make $35,000.00 per snap of the football every year of his new contract. That's 1,229 snaps for a full 17 game season and playoff games. Great pay is you can get the work!

Super pissed. I predicted 6 years at $42M per. Came in at 6 years $43M. Beane got raped! -
Josh Allen: Contract extended through 2028
ColoradoBills replied to eball's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Thanks @Billl for the personal recognition. I was pretty close. -
Josh Allen: Contract extended through 2028
ColoradoBills replied to eball's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I totally agree. It looks like Josh and his agent let Beane work things best for the team. Also gives Beane time to see what that 2023 Cap numbers will be and adjust accordingly. -
Josh Allen: Contract extended through 2028
ColoradoBills replied to eball's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I just seen that. It's over 5 years. I already edited my post. That savings you are mentioning is what I was trying to figure out. That's a perfect deal! -
Josh Allen: Contract extended through 2028
ColoradoBills replied to eball's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The bolded has got to be a typo in the article. He can't be getting paid that it 2022. Anyone have an explanation. EDIT: The Option Bonus is a 5 year length so it's an $8M hit in 2022, 1. 2021 signing bonus: $16.5 million, fully guaranteed at signing. 2. 2021 base salary: $920,000, fully guaranteed at signing. 3. 2021 roster bonus: $2.6 million, fully guaranteed at signing. 4. 2022 option bonus: $42.4 million, fully guaranteed at signing. 5. 2022 base salary: $4.1 million, fully guaranteed at signing. 6. 2023 base salary: $27.5 million, fully guaranteed at signing. 7. 2024 million roster bonus: $6 million, which becomes fully guaranteed five days after signing. -
Training Camp Practice and Media Sessions 8/6
ColoradoBills replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
With the contract news he got this morning before practice and knowing his family and friends are set for life and to give a passing performance as all are saying is a showing of this young mans character. I really can't believe we got this guy as our teams QB. -

Well today is a great day in Buffalo Bills history. If you want to dwell on things like that by all means continue. I will let it go. Go Bills! -

You are insinuating that Mahomes will never lose to any of these QBs teams. That's a huge stretch. Lol.
