Not really. He's getting $265M from 2023 to 2027, or $53M per year. The graphic you posted does not include the "cheap" remaining money from rookie deals or old contracts for a lot of these guys. Here is what the real list looks like in terms of cash flow right now:
Mahomes - $53M per year ($265M for 5 years)
Lamar - $52M per year ($260M for 5 years)
Goff - $48.1M per year ($240.6M for 5 years)
Tua - $47.1M per year ($235.6M for 5 years)
Burrow - $44.3M per year ($310M for 7 years)
Lawrence - $43.8M per year ($306.6M for 7 years)
Hurts - $43.2M per year ($259.3M for 6 years)
Herbert - $42.3M per year ($296.25M for 7 years)
Allen - $35.57M per year ($284.55M for 8 years)
I would think Josh Allen is gonna demand a raise pretty soon, like Mahomes did last year. He can easily point to these other contracts and say that he's a more valuable player than some of these other dudes.
