$50 plus million per year is what I was expecting and Burrow should be worth it.
He doesn't have Rodgers age or ego issues. Doesn't appear to have Lamar Jackson's injury risk. Didn't cost a lot in Draft picks like Deshaun Watson cost the Browns.
Burrow handles himself almost perfectly as a Franchise QB and should be a Franchise carrying type talent. The Bengals are fortunate to have a chance to pay him and he may even give the Bengals a little breathing room on his contract to make the Team better. Either way I pay him.
