Seems like a lot of extra baggage If I was a Baltimore fan, I'd be sincerely happy about Lamar feeling desperate enough to need to leak this. If he had a real market, he'd be quiet as a churchmouse. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the Jets perspective if the Packers are asking for a FRP + more, trading for Lamar won’t cost them more in terms of cash or draft capital.

How would Lamar know if there’s a market when he hasn’t signed the tag, so he can’t negotiate with other teams, and he doesn’t have an agent to assess interest around the league? Lamar signing an offer sheet with another team is/was never a realistic outcome. There has only been one player in NFL history to sign with another team while under the non exclusive tag and actually play for them. This to me screams that he understands they’re not going to get a deal done and wants to put pressure on the Ravens to either cave to his contract demands or trade him.

I think the Jets would have signed Hackett regardless of Rodgers. History with Saleh, and they wanted someone experienced, not a first time OC. The Jets ALWAYS hire bad OCs. The idea that Allen Lazard will have any impact on their decisions is… a reach best. Not a big fan of signing Lamar, but if GB is asking for what their fans think they are, I would look into it.

Jackson has been able to negotiate with other teams since he was tagged. Hence the NFL's memo to not negotiate with his brother's uncle's former roommate's trainer or whoever that other guy was. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would sign an offer sheet with another team that would prompt the process to allow the Ravens to match. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's regressed from 2019, is injury prone, and his contract demands seem unreasonable. BUT, that team was pretty stale from 2013-2017. They didn't make the playoffs for 4 out of 5 years and the one year they did, they lost in the divisional round (to the eventual SB champ Patriots). He was a big catalyst into turning them back into a contender. This is a lose-lose scenario all around 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
