Like I said in the previous thread this is a massive massive discount.

 

He could have gotten $65M or even $70M AAV. Hopefully Beane knows how big this discount is and uses it appropriately.

Huge discount.  He could have done 12 years $1b (stacked at back end) and it would have been reasonable.

Hopefully Beane gets him someone to throw to downfield

I remember when Jim Kelly signed a 6 year 20 million dollar deal and that was a record setting deal.

At first blush of it had been an extension it would have been around $11M savings but since this is a whole new deal it could actually be significantly more.

Same.

Team friendly only 55M AAV!  lol sounds crazy to say that but I think it is true.  

[Coach Tuesday]

Would very much appreciate it if Beane would use the discount to purchase better weapons to surround him with.

Quarter of a billion guaranteed largest ever, well deserved.

We don't do that kind of thing around here

The new contract is already in Wikipedia. Dang... that took minutes.

[RichRiderBills]

I mean we knew it was coming and it still feels great. Our QB. So glad we have him.

Shite, I remember that day like it was yesterday.

Good for Josh, the Bills, and Beane for getting this done and still leaving flexibility. I expect this to save the Bills money somehow this year but how much is the question 

[QB Bills]

Still underpaid

 

Here's to hoping the clowns running the show can find at least one other elite talent 

[BillsFooteball]

This is great news. Going to assume it will come with a low cap number in 2025 so can grab some needs in free agency 

[BillsFanForever19]

Between the Von release and this we should have saved 20.2m today.
