I was a big believer in waiting until after this year, until Rodgers will become a FA next year (He's gonna set a new high) and Allen is on fire in TC.  Just lock it in now.

So what will Lamar Jackson now get?

44 million.  Between Allen and Mahomes.

Interesting to see Browns/Ravens fans reaction.  
 

Consensus is that they both wish they got the deal done first, especially Ravens fans, as Allen likely set the floor for Lamar and have a bargaining chip for Baker - even though both fan bases acknowledge Allen is the better QB.  
 

It’s a big advantage to be the first to get the deal done.  
 

Great job Beane!

Great job by Beane and Josh.  If Josh waited the price could easily have gone up but he did what was right for him and the team.

He will be paying some hefty NYS Income Taxes though, so in a sense, he is helping pay off the new stadium too. 🙂

Only for the home games - if he makes every penny of the $258 Million he'll pay about $ 14 Million to New York State.

You really think that??  I was assuming all along the Allen camp was waiting on Jacksons contract to be finalized as Allen would then get more.  I'm thinking Jackson in upper 30s?    IMO Jackson is taking a chance on not agreeing as the longer he plays the less he may be worth.  The only thing he has going is an MVP which is worth something, but is also somewhat old news now.

No way In hell Lamar gets even close to what Allen is making. I would assume Ravens would move on if he either wanted the same or more than Allen.

You’d be assuming wrong. He is 100% going to get paid by the Ravens, probably more than Allen.

lol man idk how this franchise has got themselves in this position again after "having" to ink Flacco after his SB win ðŸ˜†

hindsights easy, but they were damned either way on that one, this feels identical to me

I had less issue with Flacco though as he was more of a prototypical QB at least.

I hope you're right as that will saddle the Ravens big time if they do!

Best offseason news ever. Could you imagine if Baker somehow gets more? I'm surprised he's still even in the same conversation as Josh, but people feel this helps set the market for him
