The issue has never been about players like Russell Wilson or Aaron Rodgers or (at the time he signed his extension) Andrew Luck getting record-setting deals.
The problem is all Jay Cutlers, Andy Daltons, Derek Carrs, Kirk Cousins, and soon-to-be Dak Prescotts getting top 5 QB money when they sign their deals, and in one or two cases, those shitty guys are the ones who re-set the top of the QB market.
I remember a few years ago when Tyrod Taylor was a first year starter for Buffalo and did decently well after being a backup for so long. He put up 14 starts, 3035 yards, 20 TDs, 6 INTs. Game managery, yes, but effective enough if you were the 2016 Buffalo Bills and lacked playmakers at any and all positions. Well, he got an extension. 6 years and $92 million. For game manager production. Yeah, blah blah incentive-laden blah blah not guaranteed after so many years blah blah... whatever. That is outrageous.
Janeane Garofalo signing that ****ing stupid extension with San Fran when he played like 5 ****ing games for them. Holy shit. You're paying that for 5 games, huh?
If Dak gets above $35 (which would put him around Russell Wilson) people would absolutely say this needs to be put into place.
And I'm all for it. Because Mahomes.
