And in 3 years, they're going to have to pay Drew. Lock.
They're gonna have to pay him a franchise QB price three years from now. A price which, in AAV, may very well eclipse $40 million for someone like him once the Dak, Watson, and Lamar deals get completed.
And if Stafford doesn't bust out of Detroit prison, he's gonna make bank. Matt Ryan will be due for one more big payday. Russ's extension is gonna get close to the end. And mediocre QBs like Darnold, Allen, and Baker will all be due extensions before then, meaning they'll significantly raise the floor for average QBs. And let's not forget about Danny Dimes in New York, either, who may want a secure pay day before his 5th year option kicks in.
I don't care what Elway thinks the actual market for QBs should be worth. He's not going to get a middle-of-the-road starting QB for a supposed bargain like he thought he was getting with Keenum and Flacco. If Lock is the franchise, he's going to get paid.
