All Things Teddy-Freaking-Bridgewater

I don't necessarily think he'll get $30m but wouldn't be surprised if he did and wouldn't look at it as being overpaid.  $25-$30m would be the appropriate range in 2020 for QBs in recent years to get short stints as starters that turn into new contracts (Jimmy G, Brock, etc). so one can't look at career stats or stats from years ago as the basis for "value".  One can sign a deal for $25m now and be seen as less valuable as someone who signed a deal for $24m a year ago.  The cap and market values are increasing at a higher rate than ever, and Tom Brady is only going to push that figure even higher (something all QBs are wringing their hands about).  Now more than ever we have to be open minded to what market value is for all positions, especially QBs in the past few years.


I think Teddy's 2019 performance matching up with past QBs to cash in, combined with the multiple teams who want him, and the rising cap and market value due to the high number of QBs available will all work in Teddy's favor for a desirable legitimate starting deal. But like u say, we will find out in about a months time what Teddy ends up with!
