maryland-bills-fan Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 The league has changed. A running QB can be contained by 5 D-linemen and blitzes to reduce his running lanes and require quick decisions. He is going to get hit more and more and might only have 3-4 more years effective in the league. He is a poor passer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I predict he will be extended by Ravens to the highest paid qb in league. And that would be a losing argument you got yourself involved in.

GunnerBill Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 8 hours ago, FireChans said: Huntley is not the physical specimen that Lamar is. Lamar is special, although limited. If you are going to hitch your wagon to a an extremely talented and athletic limited QB, pick the most talented one. Agree. Huntley is an athletic Quarterback. Lamar is the best athlete to have ever played the position. I like Huntley. I have liked him since the 2020 East-West Shrine game when I said he could end up a serviceable NFL backup in the right situation behind a mobile starter. But there is a drop off from Lamar Jackson to Tyler Huntley, as well he played last night that is just a fact. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigAl2526 Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 I think Jackson will be the Ravens QB going forward. I think Hunley is mobile enough to serve as a backup in Roman Gabriel's scheme, but he also has a more rounded skill set that gives him upside as either a reliable backup or borderline starter in a more conventional offense.

BuffaloBillyG Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 15 hours ago, PetermansRedemption said: I was thinking this today and last week. The drop off between Lamar and Huntley hasn’t been anywhere near the level that I expected. I’ve even found myself watching Huntley play and thinking “Lamar doesn’t make that throw”. Huntley is playing within that offense and making the smart throw. Lamar doesn't do that. Just thinking out loud but what would field the better and more competitive team? A) Lamar Jackson B) Huntley + $35M(ish) cap space + the boatload of high draft picks some team would gladly fork over for Lamar. Could easily see some team like Carolina, Washington, Detroit or even Seattle if they part ways with Wilson paying a hefty price to get Lamar. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly every single player coach and media person in the league agrees I'd like to hear one person's opinion today.. in the NFL circle.. that thinks Lamar is a better quarterback than Josh Allen Not a runner or explosive athlete.. a better quarterback I don't think you'll find one person Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Doug Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 The issue here will be price. There’s no doubt his agent will begin negotiations by asking for him go be the highest paid QB in the league. Where they from there is anyone’s guess, but he may even end up getting more than Josh. QB contracts are not measured by skill, but rather when they sign them. They keep going higher and higher. And this could very well end up being a horrible contract for Baltimore.

Charles Romes Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 He’s not in the stratosphere of josh Allen, but like a tannehill or cousins, he’s just good enough that you have to pay him. I love the fact that we will be always be better, for more than the next decade, than teams that have to pay this level of quarterback.

NoSaint Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 20 hours ago, saundena said: The Ravens have to make a decision on whether or not to pay Lamar. He's obviously a very good player, limited in some respects- yes; but also talented enough to take over a game. But do you give him what could be the biggest contract in league history knowing that he's a big injury and his running skills will deteriorate over time? From what I've seen from Tyler Huntley, there doesn't seem to be a big drop off between him and Lamar. I wonder if he can get even better with more time and reps. I wonder if anybody in their front office thinks that the smart play might be to let Lamar walk if he asks for too much and hitch their wagon to Huntley instead. They have very similar play styles and with how accommodating Greg Roman is, I think they'd be fine youve completely missed on the actual substantial gap in talent between the two. Otherwise, spot on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you’re an NFL franchise and you’re not sure about paying your QB… don’t. Find a comparable player, albeit with some drop off, give him very little money and build a team around him. I’ve observed it with Lamar/Huntley and I think the same thing can be said for Baker/Mullens. Obviously Lamar and Baker are more talented… but if they can’t put it together why waste the money? In a vacuum, i think you are absolutely right. If the decision was based on a longer-view strategy than what it feels like most/all teams operate under (gm lifespans??). And if other realities didnt exist of course, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
