lavar703 Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 So this is weird. If they make a move for a starter are we seriously going to keep Allen? This seems like a decent chunk of change for a guy you’d just cut so I’m assuming he’s on the roster. Please don’t tell me we’re going into the season with Allen, Heinecke and Montez vs a first place schedule? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think this stops us from still looking for a starter if the opportunity presents itself. To me this shows us not drafting a QB in the upcoming draft with Allen and Heinicke still very young and both have some experience. I’m not sure how much faith they have in Montez. There is so much going on with QB’s possibly getting moved and I still think we will be in those discussions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren’t going to give Heinecke this deal and then cut him. Rivera adores Allen and he’ll most certainly be on the team. We won too many games to be in any kind of conversation for a QB in the first round unless one falls obviously. So basically we’re left with Darnold, Mariota, Newton, Trubisky and Alex Smith. There’s not much else out there unless the Cowboys stupidly let Prescott walk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSkinGM Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 I think he'll be there and I think we'll take him . Just feels like it's meant to be -Mac Jones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoganF89 Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 I for one am ok with this deal. At worst I think he’s second string on a 4 mill avg contract. And it’s possible he could turn into a starter. i know some say that the coaches love Allen and Honestly since he’s restricted unless it’s close to a minimum deal idk if he is back to be honest. Especially coming off injury. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSkinGM Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 A technicality I guess, but why is the deal referred to as an EXTENSION? Wouldn't he have to be under contract already to be EXTENDED ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A TRAIN 89 Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Very smart. Most likely an incentive-laden deal that the team can probably get out of after 1 year if need be. Curious to know the guaranteed money. You sad sacks can complain about the money but at the very least, he mastered the offense and can win a couple games if need be. He deserves a shot. This also means no chance both Alex Smith and Kyle Allen are back. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't our money ! 🤣 Don't Know the deal a 100%. Are the incentives above the reported contract number or does the contract max out at that number if he hits the incentives .. Also, Guaranteed money?
