Bills don't need to rush to extend QB Tyrod Taylor

Is Tyrod Taylor an upgrade over his recent predecessors at quarterback for the Buffalo Bills? Almost assuredly. Could he be the team's long-term option at the position? Possibly.

Is he ready for a contract extension this offseason? I don't believe so.

Among the several financial decisions the Bills will need to make this offseason -- from a potential extension for cornerback Stephon Gilmore, to re-signing Cordy Glenn and Richie Incognito, to possibly releasing Mario Williams -- will be what to do with Taylor, who will enter the final year of his contract after the third year is voided because of his playing time this season.
