According to overthecap.com the top 13 2022 QB cap numbers are $23 million or more. Of those nine are more than $30 million and four are over $40 million! It's just going to keep climbing every year. Locking in a potential starting QB at $23 million per year for four years is absolutely a steal.

And projections had Michael Thomas playing this year. Bottom line is even with your projections, signing a guy to a 24 million a year deal to be your QB at best puts you in the middle of the pack salary wise. That’s hardly a steal. It’s par for the course at best.
