In-Depth Breakdown of the Trevor Lawrence Extension

The Jaguars signed a historic deal with Trevor Lawrence with a lot of unprecedented language from the front office. I'll explain what it all means, how much is really guaranteed, and how they could make changes to it down the road!

I actually like the deal. Basically we got Trevor for next 7 years avg around 40 mil. With the last 150 of the not guaranteed is awesome.

I am very happy they extended him. I think the number per year looks too high to everyone but the way they structured it is perfect and I really think that Lawrence is the guy and deserves it. To me if his touchdown number can increase with better vertical weapons this year then I think this deal is amazing and well worth it.

People talk about Touchdowns and I agree more would be great. But I think he has the 7th most total TDs in the past two seasons, which is impressive considering back to back 9-8 seasons.

Agree we have bigger problems if Trevor is not right guy

[@craves7215]

Also no trade clause

[@zenithrx]

So lets say we extend him again in like 29. Does the void get pushed down to the end of THAT contract? or does it still hit the same years?

[@cardiacatsbrand]

I believe the prorated bonuses, what you’re referring to as void, can’t be moved again, so they’d have large cap hits in a couple following seasons from the second contract(the one just signed).

Franchise type quarterbacks are not paid for what they have done but they are paid for their upsides and their potential. That's the reality

[@cardiacatsbrand]

Completely agree, you just have to be right or else. I think they will be, but my philosophy on it would be that if there’s time you have to be 100% confident it’s the right decision.

Broddawg is honestly great when it comes to writing up these contracts. He just takes forever to get em done 😐

[@cardiacatsbrand]

It’s well written, he just has to make sure he doesn’t drive the debt up on the credit card just because the limit is higher. Much better deal than I expected them to have to give Lawrence.

The JAGS GM is horrible he needs to be fired .. 49ers did not want him and we don’t want his ass here he has not anything as a GM he doesn’t know how to draft lots of other GM”s get fired but we have a owner who doesn’t care at all ..

[@cardiacatsbrand]

The frustrating part is that he didn’t do anything to earn the job, he was simply the only guy employed who could do it.
