A couple years back we voted to increase the extension prices on QB's from 5M up to 10M on a graduated plan that will hit 8M this year and 10M by 2020. In my opinion, the 10M number is still way too low. In the last 2 free agency periods here at Legacy we have seen contract prices exceed no less than 19M on established QB's.
In 2017 Phillip Rivers went for 4 years @ 19M
In 2018 we saw Matt Ryan go for 4 years @ 20M and Matthew Stafford go for 4 years @ 23M
The 10M contract extension is still too low for that position, and my proposition would be to raise it up to 12M starting in the 2021 season.
