The problem is that Burrow is ahead of him. So I guarantee you that Trevor Lawrence's agent is telling him to wait until Burrow signs his deal.

With that said, the salary cap is becoming a thing that most fans and media understand is a limiting factor that will determine whether or not a QB is going to win a Ring. Do you (as a QB or your agent) want to win a ring, or do you want to push the cap and QB salary range? Do you want all the bag or do you want to make a run with your team?

Most teams make the wrong descision and overpay their QB. Looking at you Dallas, Cleveland, Baltimore, Minnesota.

But if you have a really great QB like Burrow, Mahommes, and hopefully Lawrence, then paying that amount will secure the future and then you have to have a really great GM to find talent and a great Head Coach and staff that can develop it.

Quick Edit: We overpaid Bortles which pretty much screwed up everything else on a team that was rising. I should have mentioned that we have been one of the major culprits of terrible salary management and talent determination and acquisition. Hopefully Doug Pederson's hiring last year is changing all of that. Baalke and Pederson look like they are going to be a good combo. So far so good.
