Jamie Nails Posted August 7, 2016 Posted August 7, 2016 FWIW- Tyrod's agent was at camp tonight meeting with Whaley and talking with JO.

Thurman#1 Posted August 7, 2016 Posted August 7, 2016 ive brought it up a few times - and $15m would surprise me. It would, essentially, be the lowest paid "expected to start the whole time" contract in the league (minus rookie deals). I dont think that the bump in pay when compared to playing out then being tagged is enough for him to give the bills 2 years with the tag option for a 3rd (that carries him into his 30s). i dont know that the bills are getting a ton here either (they could let him play out and then tag twice and come out almost the same with less guarantees). the biggest thing being the flexibility with holding the tag over gilmore. it could happen... but 2 years 30m would surprise me. its simple and not totally unreasonable or anything - i just dont know that there would be enough "want" to sign it from both sides. Yeah, agreed. When we hear talks of creativity, that's what gives me a small measure of hope. It's still mostly doubt for me, but maybe if they really do some interesting things with guaranteed money, incentives, etc. maybe they can come up with something. But as is, every deal somebody proposes looks wildly slanted. They all seem to be "Terrific for the Bills, but why would Tyrod sign that,* or the opposite, *Great for Tyrod, but where's the advantage for the Bills in paying him extra money and getting no extra time where they control him?"

Rather than rail against a couple players on the team, no matter how bizarre your take, no matter what thread you derail; your new gig is to imply that all is rosy.
YoloinOhio Posted August 7, 2016 Author Posted August 7, 2016 @johnkryk Here's what #Bills GM Doug Whaley & QB Tyrod Taylor told me last week, re idea of a new short-term deal: http://blogs.canoe.com/krykslants/nfl/short-term-deal-for-bills-qb-tyrod-taylor-the-answer-what-both-sides-told-me-last-week/

Rather than rail against a couple players on the team, no matter how bizarre your take, no matter what thread you derail; your new gig is to imply that all is rosy. It's far from rosy. It's more like well-diluted schit. But I'm focusing on the good things that happened last year with Taylor and hoping he makes the necessary improvements that will make him what we need him to be. My concerns are still there. The only difference is I'm employing more of a wait and see approach, rather than the, "he's already hit his ceiling," approach. Just don't think I"m going to wait until week 5 or 6. We're going to know how good he is after the first real game.

Maury Ballstein Posted August 8, 2016 Posted August 8, 2016 We're going to know how good he is after the first real game. Halfrod hopefully plays like fullrod this year. I'm 50/50 on it You used that word. You really used that word. In jest. Look at the 2 posts before mine. Come on bud.

YoloinOhio Posted August 10, 2016 Author Posted August 10, 2016 (edited) @jasonlacanfora Bills continue to make headway on Tyrod Taylor deal thou issues remain on back end of deal. Would likely be $35M in 1st 2yrs @spotrac Appears to be similar in structure to our projected breakdown, which included $37M thru '17. Edited August 10, 2016 by YoloinOhio
BarleyNY Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 @jasonlacanfora Bills continue to make headway on Tyrod Taylor deal thou issues remain on back end of deal. Would likely be $35M in 1st 2yrs Lotta ways $35M can be structured over two years, but we're starting to get to a bigger deal overall which means we might be looking at some creative structuring.
