The 5th year option price tag is 26.5 million I think. He is eligible for an extension, forgoing the set price of the option year. That would be for whatever negotiated value they come up with. The Jags signed Lawrence to an extension and skipped the option year. 5 year, 275 million, 200 million gauranteed. $55 million annually. This would most likely be the starting negotiation figure, since they are both former #1 overalls. The Jets declined Zach Wilson's option year and he was dealt to another team in a pick swap deal.

Is that a fuging WNBA hockey jersey??? Why does such a thing even exist???

Or real.

Goff is more akin to Matt Ryan and/or Cousins. Stat stuffer without the ability to finish. Jake was generally in the 10-20th range most of his career. Middle of the packish. I think the general modern day comp would be a Trevor Lawrence. Rarely elite production, generally middling.

obviously it’s too late now but anything more than 2 grams and you’re just showing off.

It’s 26.5 projected at this point. Would you pay Rattler any backup QB that much?

the rookie contract works awesome if the player hits, however in bryces case its a detriment to the team, most orgs either sign them long term after year 3 while picking up the 5th or they move on. As we have discussed all season less than a handful of qbs have entered this territory. And most times it ends in diaster

Because Bryce is a bad QB. His “improvement” has not been fast enough.

I’m good with this. We need to take a development guy who can sit a year in the draft and picking up the 5th means we don’t do something dumb like sign him long term for 50M this year.

Hunter Refrow in theory could potentially set a NFL record for most postseason yardage to a WR. I mean from a technical aspect, it exists as a possibility still in play. Bryce Young isn’t making a postseason run.

Bro you don’t pick up the fifth year option and hedge. Thats not how this works. Theres no warm and fuzzy middle ground here.

54 yards.

I feel like a lot of people in this thread don’t understand how the fifth year option v extension works. They’re not the same thing.

Picking up the 5th year option for this horrible QB is one of the dumbest decisions this stupid organization will make. He doesn’t deserve it. He is a horrible QB. He make the offense worse just by being on the field. Dumbass move.

I’ll say this….20 Million for one season will not cripple this team long term and should not alter any future plans of signing/drafting another QB. This should not anger fans because it’s a low risk move other than the cap for that one year (when top QB’s are above 50 million). A long term deal would cause riots at this point, bur 5th year option isn’t really a big deal to me

Pick it up and his trade value goes up, especially if he makes a run into the playoffs. There's enough mystery there as to has the coaching been holding him back or has it been his physical portion. There's going to be a coach or GM out there that's going to look at Baker Mayfield and Sam Darnold, look at the Panthers organization, and think Bryce might be worth a flyer if there's a two year inexpensive tryout period. Maybe the Vikings, Dolphins or even Pittsburgh. Might even be a hail Mary attempt from Phoenix. And maybe we do it and stick with him after a really strong showing in the playoffs, if we get there. The biggest problem is that Bryce has had some pretty good performances, just enough to make a front office wonder, but we've also had some really dud coaching games, too. So is Bryce the problem or is it our coaching and game planning. Hell, we don't even know, so other teams probably are looking at it and seeing that while the odds aren't good, there's a heck of a payoff if they are right.

That sounds about as pleasant as a ghost pepper enima

I still have the small glimmer of hope that Dan and Dave see what we all see and have to confess tep this aint it

Not at all. It's going to take something dramatic to break Tepper's heart though. You know he is cozy right now in his smugness and confidence that "see, he was right all along, and owning a winning team, being the mastermind architect behind the turnaround, and a having a 'face of the league player' isn't so hard after all." Well, not hard for someone like him anyway.

He’s turned so many corners we’re getting into theoretical geometry.

This thread makes me harder than Chinese arithmetic

Lord, I hope you are wrong

Are you trying to depress everyone lol

If Bryce has just a non disastrous game today and they win they announce it.

Take him please they took Thielen away from Young. Turnabout is fair play. Take Canales’ buddy away. I mean, does anyone know what he does? I'm serious
