More On Taylor Terms: Ian Rapoport reports that Tyrod Taylor will make $9.5 Million this year instead of the $2 Million he would have received and a whopping $27.5 Million next year if the club doesn't take the $10 Million buyout. So this is definitely still a very important year for him and he is still to some extent betting on his level of play in 2016. Albert Breer reports teh same $9.5M this year and says it's $50M in the first three years then the Bills control from 2019-2021 at a total of $42M. It is $92M over 6; $90M over 5 years in new cash and $37M in injury guarantees. If option is picked up, $40.25M is fully guaranteed.
Taylor Signs Extension: It is official Tyrod Taylor will be a Bill for a long while. His agent tweeted it's a five year extension worth $92 Million and incentives could get it up to $115 Million but he quickly deleted the tweet. Reports say the incentives are hard to reach and say it's a six year deal worth $90 Million. Adam Schefter reports the team has a $10 Million buyout option after the first and second years of the deal to protect the club if he doesn't succeed. Sal Capaccio reports it's basically a year to year deal that is very flexible throughout for the club. In a conference call Doug Whaley said his impressive offseason, command he showed with the offense, convinced team he was worthy of extension. He also acknowledged the leader he has become. He also said they didn't want to be greedy and wanted to get the deal done. Whaley also said they will now turn their attention to Stephon Gilmore to get a deal done with him but acknowledged they also have the franchise tag available for him now that Taylor is locked up.
Taylor Deal Done? Josh Reed of WIVB is reporting that the Bills and Tyrod Taylorpretty much have a deal done on an extension and an announcement can come as early as today. Tim Graham of the Buffalo News reports that the Bills are all in on a six year deal and it is not a bridge deal that would protect them if Taylor doesn't end up being the franchise QB. The options and money of the upcoming deal are not known yet.
