Horrible horrible contract. How do you give him that based off of 1 season...?

$43M average per year.  Does that contract come with claw backs if no Super Bowl championship?

Just watched the Hall of Fame game and neither starting QB played . I understand there was health reasons .  How much do you see Darnald playing in our first preseason game? The backup QB is very important . The backup QBs for Dallas and Pitt looked pretty good . How do you think ours will look ?

I think Darnold needs to play a lot this preseason.   

He has struggled in the NFL to date and this is brand new offense for him.   It makes no sense to "save him for the regular season".  He needs the work.

Make no mistake, Jameis Winston is not a running QB. Not even close.

No matter, their starting QB is a fullback.

I agree he needs to play a lot but we don’t have a backup worth a crap so idk what they will do. Darnold goes down we are definitely screwed.

Just put CMC in bubblewrap and don't even give him a helmet until Week 1.

Significant? Yeah I bet.

I remember hearing all this excitement about this raw QB entering his senior season at Montana (of all places), his rocket arm and off the wall intangibles….from Jordan Palmer through his FIL.  He just needed to go to the right franchise. This was before the hype.

Jordan was right.

He has improved every year and is a top 3 to 5 QB, thats how. And that is how the market works. Lamar is going to make more than that and most would say Allen is ahead of him.

They had him under team control for 2 more years. Make him prove himself again this year, the price wasn’t going to go up much if at all... I’d agree if he was a pending FA or had 1 year left and was forcing a contract but that wasn’t the case. This could easily turn into a massive disaster if we find out that last year was an outlier, which is entirely possible.

He played well the year before that also. Not as good as last year, but it would be odd for it to be an arbitration at this point.

Josh Allen put up double digit wins the past 2 seasons and a very 2015ish Cam year..... 

I wasn't a believer but hard to argue over what he has done in back to back years.
