Years don’t matter he’d be online for a new contract sooner which we all know in the NFL is a win. You take average per year. He’s an idiot.He was 2 years and 100 million off of the total contract. lol

Years ABSOLUTELY matter when we are talking about a fully guaranteed contract. Regular contracts not so much.Years don’t matter he’d be online for a new contract sooner which we all know in the NFL is a win. You take average per year. He’s an idiot.
Ehh… he could turn around and re up another contract after three even with out guarantees in the next one. In three years odds are he would get more total money due to NFL inflation especially at that position. Just in signing bonus. He’s being dumb.Years ABSOLUTELY matter when we are talking about a fully guaranteed contract. Regular contracts not so much.
Lamar might not think his body will hold out for more than 3 years, and he wants that last final payday.
He could. If I were Lamar and I thought I could get it. I'd take that additional 2 years and 100 mil.Ehh… he could turn around and re up another contract after three even with out guarantees in the next one.

lol might be the dabs talking here but it's a good thing I aint in control cuz I'd probably give the Ravens our precious #3 pick AND Kyler Murray for Lamar Jackson (if he'd agree to new 4 year contract) but Baltimore would never go for itxc_hide_links_from_guests_guests_error_hide_media
Thats just a lamar fan lookin out for his boy...xc_hide_links_from_guests_guests_error_hide_media
Is he? I took that to mean that was the contract that was actually offered that he turned down because it was too low.I'm talking about his reply, he's hinting that he signed a 3 year 133 mil fully guaranteed contract
He may or may not need and agent, but he definitely needs someone to proofread his letters.xc_hide_links_from_guests_guests_error_hide_media
If the Raven's won't meet his valuation, and they know him better than anyone, why would another team trade at least a couple of first round picks for him and PAY him money that the Raven's wouldn't which you have to believe is in the $50m a year range?
How would any team even trade for that if they haven't planned for it for some time? Hard to find $50m a year in your current and future cap if you haven't been structuring your roster with that intent.
Fun idea. Raven's trade him to the Falcons. We take #8 and #22 this year and next years 1st from them to move up and get a QB.

Because they don't want to end up with Sam Darnold/Zach Wilson/Tray Lance (maybe). Mina Kimes and Danny Kelly were talking about this last week on the Bill Simmons Podcast. Some teams have so fetishized the rookie contract aspect that they forget that the goal is to get a long-term starting quarterback who can play at a high level.
Larmar isn't a player without blemish, but he's much less blemished than Deshaun Watson. You can totally understand why he would be peeved that he's not getting similar shine on the trade market. Part of that is probably the fault of his deciding not to have an agent who can beat the bushes more professionally than Uncle Carlos or whomever.
Teams can structure these deals pretty easily to accommodate a big QB contract. Most teams only have a handful of players under contract two or three years down the road, so they have a ton of cap flexibility for the future.
And this is why we signed our generational talent when we had the chance. Good job Arizona Cardinals!
the price does not have to be 2 firsts. thats just the league mandated max. The exact draft compensation can be negotiated between the teams, and Lamar publicly raising hell and threatening to hold out, then holding out...it all lowers his value.If the Raven's won't meet his valuation, and they know him better than anyone, why would another team trade at least a couple of first round picks for him and PAY him money that the Raven's wouldn't which you have to believe is in the $50m a year range?

Yes...He'll sign his tender and then teams can trade for him with realistic compensation that will probably be less than 2 1sts.the price does not have to be 2 firsts. thats just the league mandated max.

Yup. If any top 10 team wanted to just offer that, they could. The contract is the problem.Yes...He'll sign his tender and then teams can trade for him with realistic compensation that will probably be less than 2 1sts.
Wrong, jackass. They didn't want to fully guarantee his contract. You'd think a so-called expert would have, you know, expert takes.xc_hide_links_from_guests_guests_error_hide_media
That was two years before (when Allen got his extension).Wrong, jackass. They didn't want to fully guarantee his contract. You'd think a so-called expert would have, you know, expert takes.
