Jason La Canfora of CBSSports.com tweeted out that the Bills are working towards a short-term “bridge deal” with Tyrod Taylor. The specifics of this deal would be two years for roughly $30 million total.
If the Bills are able to come to terms with QB Tyrod Taylor, the template they are discussing is a bridge deal in the range of 2yrs, $30M

That’s a pretty good price for the 27-year-old quarterback if he plays as well or better than last season, but it’s still a bad idea for the Bills to pursue this type of contract with Taylor for several reasons.
