In a couple of years it will be right in line with all other QBs across the league. $300m was the expectation, and the Jaguars handled this one perfect.

Back to Back winning seasons hasn’t been accomplished in ages and back to back 4,000+ passing yard seasons has never been done until now.

Looking at the big picture, Lawrence came out of Clemson a year early and was drafted to a bad team with a bad head coach. Since then, he’s won a playoff game in a huge come from behind win, made the pro bowl, and had back to back 4,000 yards passing for the first time in franchise history.

We have a face of the franchise for the next 7 years which will put Lawrence in his early 30’s. By then he will own every passing record in team history, and will have a chance to go down as one of the Jaguars Greats.

Since Brunell, we haven’t had anything with substance from the QB position and Lawrence offers stability at the most important position. He’s entering his 4th professional season and will be 25 years old and is the leader of this football team. No holdouts, and distractions etc. none of that stuff.

It’s a good deal for both sides and a great day in Jaguars History, as he’s now the highest paid player in team history. This organization can win a Super Bowl with Trevor Lawrence.

Josh Allen will do the same over on defense and he should become the all time sack leader this season.

Anybody know the richest contracts in franchise history? There could be some guys I forgot, but here is what I came up with:

6. David Garrard  $69,400,000
7. Andrew Norwell $66,500,000

8.  Blake Bortles  $54,000,000
10. Joe Shoebert $53,750,000

Yeah bro. Along with Drayton Florence and Julius Thomas. I didn’t even bother looking up Zane Beadles and Myles Jack. They are probably within the top 30. I’m cool with Myles but Zane Beadles was junk from jump street.
