And then we did the same thing with Charles Clay and Miami. And if a team DID put a poison pill in the contract, then Baltimore just says "no thanks, I'll take those two 1sts", so there really isnt much risk for the Ravens.

Just saying we played some matching antics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCBills Posted March 7, 2023 Author Share Posted March 7, 2023 So … Falcons AND Panthers are reportedly out on Lamar. Uh… do we even know if this dude “has” a market? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2o Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 The further along this goes, I think it doesn't end the way Lamar hopes. I know he's trying to keep every $$$ he can, but he should have hired an agent long ago imo. He probably would have had a big $$$ contract already. I can't see someone giving up more than $235M gtd with his playing style and how he has finished the last two seasons injured. He just turned 26 and could still get at least 1 more big contract in, if not 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's looking like the best thing he can do for himself is go back to Baltimore and play under Monken and show folks he's a real QB. Oh, and maybe also play the full season uninjured, but he only has so much control over that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never thought there was one, considering he wanted $50M/year on a fully guaranteed contract and the Ravens would want 2-1st rounders.

I’ll believe it when I see it. It’s also possible some team is ready to drop a crazy contract that no one else will match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dablitzkrieg Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Now the buzz word in the Bible known as Twitter, is collusion. Absolutely amazing that this conclusion can be drawn literally 3 hours from the signing of the franchise tag.

I seem to recall a big Browns-Steelers playoff game in the early 2000's between Kelly Holcomb and Tommy Maddox where each guy threw for close to 400 yards. I think the Steelers won that game though. Browns have not had too many big wins in the modern era. I remember the loss in 1980 to the Raiders in the frigid cold of Memorial Stadium when Brian Sipe threw the last second pick by Mike Davis in the end zone. The field was like concrete.

HappyDays Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 He needs to get an agent. He has no endorsement deals, no commercials, nothing. Other teams are shutting down his asking price. He needs someone that isn't a direct relative advising him. Right now he looks like a fool and is costing himself millions. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFunPolice Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 (edited) If Lamar sits out the entire year would he become a free agent? Technically what's stopping the USFL or XFL from offering him $10 million dollars to play this spring to help tide him over this season while generating huge PR for their league? I just want to see Lamar stick it to the Ravens and the league at this point. This is straight up BS.

If he won’t play for 4x that much, why on earth would he risk injury for 10m? 4 hours ago, TheFunPolice said: This is going to be a lot of fun to follow, and I hope some NFC team makes Lamar the highest paid player in NFL history. Makes the AFC a little easier, and Lamar gets a serious payday. If you look at SpotTrac he was making peanuts (like 1 million or so per season until his 5th year option) while the Ravens ran him into the ground. I can't blame the man for wanting to get his guaranteed money. If he had an agent, he would have signed right after JA and been making bank for 2 years, he’s an idiot 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
