No but we are definitely getting relocated to Austin now

Just popping in to say this is a great time for all of us! It’s been so long for anything that ALL Bills fans can celebrate regardless of any personal outside proclivities. Hopefully we are on the way to the promised land! Goooooooo Bills!

not a great decision.  more money than Mahomes, who has won a SB.  WTF.  

 

 

 kidding.  got some of you.  

 

This is a great deal.  Not sure how it breaks down year by year, but it's totally in-line with how QB contracts go, and waiting would have only make it more.  It looks like we will be able to hang on to other high-priced players (assuming we have any.  We could if Edmunds finally catches on, Diggs contract, Gabe (WR), Groot, etc.)  

 

 

 

Seriously, I read your opening and glanced up expecting the name to be Scott Law.

If we don't have enough cap space to trade for Ertz now I'm gonna be pissed!

[RaoulDuke79]

Hard to make an argument against Beane being the best GM in the NFL.

[Gen2]

My only worry is does this leave enough money to sign Ertz ....... I'm kidding ..... I'm kidding

I'd say we have a pretty good GM...

Wonder how the contract is structured.

 

Think they will "kick" the cap it down the road and really go after a title in the next year or 2. Or if they used this year and next to lower the cap hit down the road

[Don Dokken]

I don’t think I’ve ever been more wrong about anything in my life as I was about Josh Allen on draft night. It’s staggering. This guy is going to end up bringing us some of the happiest moments of our lives. I can’t wait.

From a long term fan's perspective.

Josh's  per annum salary is going to be roughly twice what it cost to build the stadium.

The times....they are a changin'.

His next deal will be after three SB rings and a couple MVPs now 

And he will be playing for Austin by then anyway

Ultimately, yes it will.  Taxpayers yes, taxes, well no

[Mango]

This is one of those times where somebody totally effed the market. If you’re Cleveland or Baltimore there is no way you get close to that, right?

[HappyDays]

Part of the reason I wanted this done now is that Allen doesn't have to worry about his contract during the season. He can just play. I know he kept saying it wasn't on his mind, but let's be honest it's impossible not to think about it. I want him playing freely this season. Now I'm more confident he will.

Miss me with that ***** troll 

[Iverwig]

Now that Josh is locked up hopefully he keeps progressing which I think he will. I wonder how long before Diggs asks for more money.

Well done young man. From emailing damn near every school in the nation just for a shot, to 2nd highest paid QB in the league. Well done
