Josh Allen Franchise Tag

Hard to believe he was a Rivals 2* when he committed, I remember his hs coach saying what a phenomenal athlete Josh was and that he was a steal for us. Outside of Art Still, absolutely the best I’ve ever witnessed.
He’ll get roughly $24M for one year…nice
Couldn’t happen to a better guy. He has to go into the ring of honor sooner rather than later.
I was kinda hoping a contender would've picked him up.
I want him to get a ring, but 24M in one year is massive. That kinda money will set his kids up for life. Which is good.

It's likely the tip of the iceberg. They may have used the tag to allow time for contract negotiations.
Best player I’ve ever seen in UK Jersey. He was the best defensive player in the country that year.
There were so many holding calls let go, becuse there would have been no game if they didn’t. It would have been 24 sacks a game. The franchise tag is goofy, but he’ll get a minimum 24 million and maybe much more. Good for him!
Another reminder that Gruden and Mayock, for whatever reason, picked Clelin Ferrell instead of Allen.
He should sign with the Bills. You have to keep open the possibility that payroll makes a bank error in your favor.
Nah pretty sure he swept all the national Defensive player of the year awards. Will never understand how that edge from Clemson was drafted over him tho.
