How did Lamar get his latest injury? Looks like he will be missing the playoff game this week. A lot of folks say pay the man but to me this is kind of why you dont pay him bc he cant stay healthy. He's dynamic on the field but i dont think he's every played a full year.

Even though he wasn't a full time starter as a rookie he still played in every game. He missed a total of 2 games in his second and third year. The last couple seasons he's had injury issues but he's still worth opening up the checkbook to bring him back. Baltimore would be beyond idiotic to let him walk.

Oh i agree but would you pay him to be the highest paid QB?

Probably. If not top three at least.

...and get your franchised possibly buried in salarycaphell?

He has said he's not asking for $250M. I think Mahomes is the highest paid QB right? I wouldn't say they're in salary cap hell. If you have a young top QB you pay him as such.

does a former MVP like Lamar Jackson deserve more than Deshaun Watson? i would think so.

Deshaun Watson should not be the standard. That was a desperate and idiotic contract and the rest of the NFL knows it.

I wouldn't pay Lamar top 3. His style of play means he's only going to get worse as he ages, and he is definitely more susceptible to injures.

And I DEFINITELY would not give him fully guaranteed, which is said to be the sticking point

Sammy Watkins throwing a bit of shade too

but the reality is that Watson is the standard now. blame CLE for that.

There is desperation to find and keep a good QB to be sure. Murray and Russell Wilson are now cautionary tales, along with Rogers. Watson might pull his head out of his butt, but he is a warning too. Rogers is probably to best comparison IMO. I don't think the Packers can win anything meaningful with Rogers and his contract. They would have been better off keeping Adams (and others) and taking their chances with Love. It might have been a disaster but the status quo with Rogers is limited. I think the Ravens would end up in the same boat if they give Jackson a huge deal.

That being said, it seems like the pressure to keep Jackson, and fear of failure without him, will be too much.

Tua just said NOPE.

how the turn tables.

Miami would be a decent fit. Idk if they have the money Lamar is asking but it would be the best fit.

It would definitely be interesting and would stress defenses- having to account for Lamar, Hill, Waddle all at the same time.

Bad look when you mouth off to a fan for the world to see.

Still a more classier Raven than the killer they built a statue of outside their stadium
