Cousins: 0 There isnt a 50 page thread on Kirk Cousins getting paid. It really hurts some of you seeing a black man get paid at QB. PAIN. there's no question that Lamar deserves a good deal. The question is whether he is automatically entitled to one that equals or exceeds Watson's. The guaranteed money genie is out of the bottle and it's not going back in. Lamar has already turned down 3 years at 43 per year guaranteed so he and the Ravens are in the same ballpark. There's enough money in the NFL to pay Lamar what he is asking. The Ravens are a six win team with out him. His negotiating strategy is unorthodox in that he has lost a couple of high earning years that could have been negotiated before his rookie deal ran out. I think he'll get a four deal at Watson's salary guaranteed with a fifth year that's voidable by either side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(See the bold.) Are you calling people racists because they think Lamar wants a contract that would be a bad move for any team? Top dollar (originally said to be 100% guaranteed, but now he’s “reportedly” backed off) after spending TWO first round picks. My understanding is he’s been offered Cousins types of deals, but he wants longer term AND fully guaranteed. He wants the STUPID deal the Browns gave Watson. One stupid deal does NOT make the market. Look at the Cousins deals - he was smart and willing to accept short term deals. He’s made a fortune on 1-2 year deals over and over. Lamar could do the same. Lamar would be fully guaranteed on the $32mil +/- franchise deal. Nobody resents that, to my knowledge. I think he was offered 3 years for $133 mil guaranteed, but he wanted more and/or longer. His style does not lend itself to long term fully guaranteed deals. He needs to stay healthy and earn his money. I don’t see this as racist. The man needs professional representation. With a qualified agent none of this would be happening. . Edited April 8, 2023 by Augie 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now do comparisons with: Mahomes Allen Stafford Dak Geno Carr Jimmy G The number one fact is that no one REALLY knows what has been discussed between Jackson and Baltimore. With that said, so much of the speculation says the same thing about guarantees that it is likely close to true. I don’t think most people would be either happy or upset if Baltimore gave Jackson everything he wants. They may have opinions on its wisdom, but saying the opinions are based on skin color is not backed up by evidence. The only player to receive a fully guaranteed, top dollar, long term contract in league history is a black guy. Cousins’ longest contract was three years and not true top end money….close, but not what Jackson presumably wants. Clearly the owners do not want baseball type contracts to become the norm. You can argue whether or not there is collusion, but tying it to race is unsupported. You tried with Cousins, but a valid argument requires a lot more than that. If Allen, Carr, and Stafford had received full guarantees, but Mahomes, Geno and Dak hadn’t, you’d have an argument. Personally, I don’t care what Jackson gets from whom, but maybe have a small preference for him ending up in the NFC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You neglected to include number of games he missed. Availability is most import asset. Embarrassing to go race card with Lamar. Bill Polian got destroyed for saying pre draft he didn’t think Lamar was going to be a good NFL qb for his passing ability and skill set. Not because he was black. He has been proven wrong to some degree. Numerous posters have explained the why and the logical reasons that Lamar isn’t getting what he wants. He owns about 90% of his current situation. He should take accountability for that. One question GM’s and owners have is what kind of leader gets in the situation? You combine that with all that has been posted about health, playoff results, and passing ability and here you are.

Demonstrates poor leadership. Not understanding his market. Taking negatively about the team that was the only one to take him in the first round. They believed in him and built a unique O around him. His repayment is to seek an unreasonable contract. So even if he comes back the relationship has been hurt. OBJ for one year at silly $ really should make no difference to Lamar as his long term may not benefit from having him one year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you show us the path in which you feel this has increased his value? I’m not claiming he has. The statement I responded to was claiming he’d never recoup the money he’d lost when the reality is that he hasn’t lost a dime. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QLBillsFan Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 (edited) 31 minutes ago, Billl said: What money has he lost? By not signing a similar contract to JA at the same time Josh did. It has cost him between $30-40M through this year. Assuming he signs for only the $32M and not a long term context. Numerous people have articles or podcasts on it. JA has earned $85M while Lamar has earned around $55M give or take as stated above. Edited April 11, 2023 by QLBillsFan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
