I think we made a mistake by not jumping in...but oh well.

Daniel Jones... four-year deal worth $160 million with another $35 million available through incentives. It's a minimum 40M AAV that could get as high as 48.75M if he meets those incentives.

Washington needs to be on the phone with Action Jackson.

Him and Bienemy? Wow.

The 35 mil is a part of the 160 mil not in addition too .

That’s a lot of money for mediocrity. Wow.

Not sure why they didn't go after Carr?

To the Giants credit, last season Daniel Jones played better than he ever had previously, and didnt particularly have an amazing supporting cast around him.

On the other hand, he has proven to be the third best qb in the NFC East, and it’s hard to see him getting that much better.

It’s a lot of money for an average qb, but Its also kind of the going rate.

I was going to guess it would be 30ish a year, tells you what I know. He only threw 15 TDs last year. TH threw 12 in 9 games. Just saying.

With the Giants and Daniel Jones agreeing to a new deal, his contract numbers have been revealed. The new deal is worth $160 million over four years, a source tells Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer. Jones can also make an additional $35 million in incentives.

Agreed, but it is not without precedent! let us remember that all of this guaranteed money began with Kirk Cousins who at the time was the highest-paid QB (30M)

Yep!

I also believe that Galloway was a huge disappointment to them and their top priority is now WR.

Now I really liked your point... "It’s a lot of money for an average QB, but It's also kind of the going rate," and well remember the many debates on this board over Cousins and what the market dictated. So, here's my question for you and anyone else who wants to chime in.

If Daniel Jones is worth 40M + incentives totaling 35M what's Lamar Jackson worth?

CBS is reporting a different contract structure , most of the guaranteed money Is bonus and the incentives push it to 160 mil . It was structured so they could franchise barkley . Heard it on CBS sports radio from the guy who broke the Carr story

I think we are close to the day when a qb will get 75 million a year. We will be there in 10 years. Mahomes or Rodgers is 50 million right? Then, it will be 100 million.

Not going to argue the details because there are apparently different reports, let's wait and revisit this when things settle and there's more clarity.

BTW: how about this Geno Smith re-signs with the Hawks 3 years, $105M that includes $52M in the first year? (26.5M in years 2-3)

QB salaries have doubled in the last 6 years.
