Carr with 4yr/$150m
Geno with 3yr/$105m
Big money to guys who haven't done much with their careers.
Burrow is going to get a small country for his extension. If they wait to extend him long enough that Hurts, Herbert, and Lamar (assuming he gets traded) get deals and drive up the top market accordingly, it's going to be a large country. Lol

Not bad for a QB who looked like his career path was as a backup not long ago. But also Nick Foles got 50 million guaranteed out of the Jaguars in 2019.

He's gonna get north of 50 Million a year if he wants it.

Lordy, I get that Geno Smith did yeoman's work last year, but he's a prime candidate to turn back into a pumpkin after getting this deal.

Seeing guys who have already been "no thanks-ed" by teams getting deals like this does make me think Burrow could ask for anything.

Chiefs lucked out getting Mahomes inked in 2020 for $450 million for ten years.

He was already going to get north of $50m if he wanted it. With Carr and Geno being in the $35-37.5m/yr range, and Daniel Jones allegedly going to be getting around $40m/yr, we might see a gigantic jump in the top tier QB contracts because the scrub starters are greatly increasing the floor and the ceiling has to rise just as much.
All of a sudden Kyle Shannahan might become the hottest coaching tree if he can produce other coaches who can implement a scheme that can get Jimmy G and Brock Purdy to look good. Just cycle through system QBs while they're affordable and save yourself the $60-70m/yr QB contract.

Their GM recently stated they would have no problem adjusting his contract if other QB's got more.

Really?
I don’t see how the pace of these pay increases is sustainable.
I guess they are aiming for empty stadiums when tickets cost so much nobody can afford to go anymore.

Honestly, this really only affects someone like Daniel Jones. No way he's going to get the $45 million deal he wants.

Geno Smith has had a crazy career arc.
Underwhelmed with Jets his first two seasons so he got designated as a backup.
Then he backed up at NYG, LAC, and SEA 2017-2021.
Then he FINALLY gets another starting opportunity on an offense that fits better with his playing style and he actually did well.
Now he finally hits a big contract at 32 years old.

Lamar Jackson just got the franchise tag.
This is an interesting quote from the ESPN article: "Sources told ESPN last year that Jackson wants a fully guaranteed deal like the one given to Deshaun Watson last year by the Cleveland Browns and Baltimore is against doing so because the team considers the Watson deal an outlier."

Daniel Jones 4yr/$160m with ANOTHER $35m in incentives available.
So $40m/yr with the possibility of becoming up to $48.75m/yr.
The Bengals really need to hurry up and extend Burrow before top tier QB money becomes $70m/yr. Lol... this is getting absurd very very quickly.

Yeah, I'm feeling envious of the Chiefs and their contract with Mahomes. They really lucked on their timing of that contract.
I realize someone posted that the Chiefs are up to readjusting Mahomes contract, but they don't have to. As the GM said "On one end, we have Pat's deal done." And he's locked in for 10 years. I saw where one Chiefs fan said, "we have him locked until 2032 and he's just about to hit his prime. (Laughs manically)."

and Josh Allen is getting paid 43 million per year. The contracts for these 2nd and 3rd tier QBs are just stupid considering what Mahomes and Allen are being paid
