DapperCam Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 I think 15m guaranteed is too much for him considering the risks. Only a one year deal though, and if the Ravens have the cap space, then why would they care? It might entice LJ to sign. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyDays Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 That leaves Hopkins and Jeudy as the available players to ensure we don't enter the season with Davis as the locked in #2. Let's hope Beane makes it happen. I'm going to be pretty disappointed if our only offensive improvements are moderate upgrades to McKenzie, Kumerow, and Saffold.

Lamar made it every year if his career until he missed the rest of this year when they were the number 1 seed. Is Allen never going to win a SB because he hasn’t? Saying absolutes about young qbs, much less one who has a 70% winning %, is pretty stupid. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alphadawg7 Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 (edited) I mean he clearly prioritized money even though its a 1 year prove it deal to try and get a multi-year deal next year. He won a SB already though in which he was a key player for that SB run and in the SB up until he got hurt. So he has his ring...don't blame him for taking the money over say taking much less to play for a contender. Plus he gets a big role there too. When you think about his knee issues, this might be his last big paycheck too, so getting as much as he can makes sense in case his knees don't cooperate with him.

Ethan in Cleveland Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 As many of us say, it only takes one team to make a bad deal or a bad trade and mess with the market. $15M for a guy coming off an ACL is insane to a team that may have a rookie QB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

babulator Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 I've been enjoying all the Ravens drama personally. Allowing Lamar to hold the franchise hostage with his ridiculous contract demands and now grossly overpaying for OBJ is pretty comical. Lamar has left soo much money on the table by not getting a new deal after 3 years, and now he's screwing up the teams ability to reload for the future by holding them hostage in this negotiation. Now they make this desperate overreach for OBJ. The only thing I would find funnier than all of this is if they were to reach and overpay for Zeke. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFanForever19 Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 (edited) I guess I don't know how contracts work. How can you give someone a base salary of 1m+ and incentives of 3m and then give them a 13m+ signing bonus? I thought bonus' had to be a percentage of a contract? How can you give someone a bonus that's like 4 times the amount of the actual contract? Edited April 10, 2023 by BillsFanForever19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
