Deserves? Purdy has his team one win away from a SB championship, yet Allen(who has yet to participate in a SB) deserves to be paid, but not Purdy?

 

SF has a better coach. Better offensive players around Purdy with CMC, Deebo, Kittle. Better defense. The Lions got to them early, but SF adjusted and controlled the game late. Bottom line Josh has to be the man for the Bills to win. Purdy doesn't despite the fact that he has played well.

Doesn’t mean he should not be paid among the elite…$40-50 mil.

True. The Giants gave Jones that big contract, so it won't surprise me when he also gets paid. He is a good QB, but I don't think he is elite.

Lamar a true MVP.

Lamar is so good that he was a free agent and received ZERO offers. He's a good runner though...for now

But he caught his own pass!!! 
 

(ignore that Marcus Mariota did that like eight years ago)

I will almost guarantee he gets more. The cap goes up every year, so that's just the way it works.

 

He will probably get 45-48 per year if I were to guess.

 

Term/guarantees will Be the big numbers to look at though

 

Yes, good point

He was franchise tagged, so yeah, most franchise tags don't receive offers.

Non-exclusive tag which means he was free to negotiate with other teams. There were zero teams interested

I posted an article from The Ringer on this forum not long ago that came to two very convincing conclusions, which it backed up with data and charts and everything:

1.) Generally speaking, the later it gets in a game, the worse Tua plays. 

2.) Generally speaking, the later it gets in the season, the worse Tua plays.

So me, personally? I'm fully on board with the Dolphins giving big money to Tua. He's a very good -- borderline elite -- September and October quarterback. Once Thanksgiving hits and onward, he folds. 

He's just good enough to give you hope, and just bad enough to repeatedly break your heart.

Give him all the money. Sign him for all the years. I'm here for it.

Word was that he was a little banged up by the end of the season, which makes sense. He's a smaller bodied QB, and running that offense relies on having his track star WRs also totally healthy. 

 

Inevitably, one or both of those WRs will get dinged up, miss games or just be a little bit slower, and the entire system stops working.

But the negotiating team would have had to cough up the big $$$ contract AND give the Ravens two 1st Round picks. For Mahomes, Burrow, Allen, and possibly Herbert teams would do that. For Jackson, whom most execs already understand his limitations, not so much.

But he's the MVP right? How can he not be worth it? Teams should be dying to get a QB like that. Unless...he's not that good

Because it costs a team 2 1st round picks on top of the massive contract.

Also Mariota scored on his own pass, I remember because my friend were here doing a fantasy fantasy league style bet on that weekend and they argued about how to score it.

A small price to pay for the best player and MVP of the entire NFL. The Dolphins gave up that for Tyreek Hill

I think thats worth it for a franchise QB.

 

Like if we are in the drought years, I would have been thrilled to do that for a QB like Lamar.

 

But the reason teams were scared off was because Lamar was looking for fully guaranteed money and no owner/gm was going to trade those assets and give him the fully guaranteed deal
