I'd shoot for 5 and be pleased at 4 so long as he started the extension AFTER next season; so he's effectively locked in for 5.

The higher end QB contracts right now are in the 4 year range. Look at the deals signed by Wentz, Goff, Rodgers and Wilson - all 4 year deals. Newton, Carr, Stafford and Ryan (and Grapes) signed 5 year deals but most a few years ago before the move to the 4 year standard.

He's not signing for 7 - period. If you can get him for 5 consider it a small miracle. In all reality, he'll be signing for 4.

All fair points.
