Franchise tag for a QB is gonna be like $24mil in 2018 an $28 mill in 2019 breh.

Year to year, no stability, un happy player and still forking over $52 Milly breh.
$28m is better than forking over $90m to an unproven player

I doubt Jimmy G would be that un happy considering he just got there. This isnt a Cousins situation

if its frontloaded, the risk isnt that much. we'll have enough salary cap in next couple of years, and if he stinks it up, they'll have leverage to release or trade him
its basically like silghtly worse than franchising him for 2-3 years

if its not frontloaded tho...then its a different story
schefter said 90 mill first 3 years so it looks that way

You do when a guy comes in with no training camp. Limited knowledge of the playbook. Limited weapons on offense. A leaky Oline and a team in the rut basically and he rises their whole play as a team and haul off W's for the rest of the year. Yes you do when you have the cap space to burn.


You telling me Jacoby Brissett would've even sniffed a good contract with these numbers; 3,498-13-7. He had it harder given that he got traded and had to play immediately with no time to sit like Jimmy G. The Colts are a worse team then the 9ers with a lame duck coach so he couldn't do much to lift them but he was solid and showed signs. If he was a free agent he'd get a shyt contract.

We've seen Brock get paid off mediocre play. I believe he had 5tds 6ints. Matt Flynn was caking off one game. It's whiteness more than it is on the field play. I understand Jimmy G has promise but that's an insane amount of money for someone with a minimal resume.
