N4L Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 3 minutes ago, SalvadorsDeli said: No, that's not how that works. If Lamar signs with a different team and the Ravens decline to match, then they get two FRP's from that team at a minimum. Alternatively they could work out a sign and trade where they match the offer but deal Lamar for a higher compensation package. The bolded makes no sense. Two FRPs is the maximum the ravens will get in a trade. A team isnt going to trade *more* and have to pay Lamar what they would pay him regardless of the trade compensation. If you wanted to say a team like MIA or SF (teams without a FRP) would trade Lance or Tua etc etc then sure, but other than that, no team in the league will negotiate a trade with Baltimore. Its two firsts or its lamar. The terms of the deal have already been agreed to. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xmad Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 It truly baffles my mind Daniel Jones is worth about 5 million less/year than Mahomes. But lamar can't get 50 million/year with like 4 years of guaranteed money. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWil23 Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 How angry is Lamar with each of these latest quarterback deals? Wow this is fantastic. This is about as close to joy as I’ve ever experienced as a Browns fan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How angry are all the Ravens fans i’ve argued with for the last 2 months that swore “someone will give Lamar what he wants” if we didn’t, and that his contract demands weren’t unreasonable?

Mahomes isn't making anywhere close to as much as he is worth in this market. This is what happens as time progresses and why top players rightfully want to tear up "big" contracts they sign like 3 years into them.

If he stinks it up they can look to move on this time next year. Lamar wants a commitment that ties the Ravens up in big money for a longer term of time and Lamar just hasn't been reliable. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Reed Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Btw, the “owners are colluding against Lamar” takes have already started en masse. Anything but admitting this guy overassumed his value, I guess. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are no real win now teams that want to make a splashy contract with Lamar. It also doesn't help that the QB market is what it is this year. There's decent QB's in the draft, Rodgers is up for grabs, Carr was in the discussion, and Jimmy G is a back up plan for anybody who can't get their guy. Lamar thought he was worth more than he was, the threat was always that someone would pay him. Ravens were right in that they wouldn't Edited March 7, 2023 by lancerman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
