Saves us 13m in cap space this season

The real numbers are out now. It's actually 141m over 5 at 28m per. The rest is based on production and post season production. He gets 150m if he hits all of his incentives.

Walker also called him to congratulate him and said that even though he(Walker) had an off day today. Allen's new contract inspired him to go workout. Good stuff man

Josh bet on himself and ultimately won.  Those numbers posted by Eric1 above look very fair for both parties.  I am very happy for both Josh and his family. Josh earned this contract by absolutely balling out last year and will be the leader of that unit for the foreseeable future.

Respect the game.  Play with a sense of urgency. 


1.)  Take care of the ball.  Win the turnover battle.

2.)  It's all about 3rd down.  Win on 3rd down to win the game.

3.) Playmakers make plays.  The only reason that you put your uniform on is to make plays. In order to EARN your paycheck, you must make plays.  

Learn from the great collapse of 2023.  

Jags d line looking dangerous for 2024

The numbers look even better looking at it like this. Its actually even better than this being its 28.5 mil per year

Nice, now do we wait for Trevor to break out or get that done now for a cheap price? We waited on Josh, I’d assume they’d wait.

Guys... the player has to be willing to sign this magical "cheap" deal a year early.  I'd have buyer's remorse if I'm the GM offering a low ball offer a year early and the guy signed it without hesitation.  I'd be thinking, "wait... you don't want to bet on yourself?, then why am I?"

I am aware of that

So therefore it defaults to Baalke’s fault? 

Makes perfect sense.

Well Deserved. This is a rare time a Jaguar player drafted earns a big payday for the team.

Mate I never blamed it on baalke

I said he beat around the bush

How is that not blaming Baalke?  And this goes back to my very first response.  How do you know HE beat around the bush?  You don’t.

Well he refuses to negotiate contracts during the season.  That's his own policy, not one from ownership.

A month after the season's end, he still hadn't even begun negotiations, to the point that Allen's camp was reportedly upset about him guaranteeing that Josh would be a Jag.

The use of the tag prevented us from using it on Ridley, who supposedly planned to sign with us until the tacks offered a number we (wisely) wouldn't match.

It's pretty obvious that Baalke took his time on this one.  That said, it thankfully got done.

We've also seen this historically now with the Engram thing last year. It was clear he wanted to sign but Baalke wouldn't give him an offer until after the draft because he drags his feet on resigning players that should be resigned. And no, it doesn't take both sides, it takes the team opening negotiations with an offer to the player. The player might not respond, but it's pretty clear the last two years that the GM isn't interested in contract talks until...later.

You gotta admit though, it's a whole lot easier to give the player the number he wants in a year when the cap grows by the the highest percentage in 20 years aside from the Covid recovery year in 2022.  Josh Allen got some lucky circumstances there to help his cause.
