He was already under contract for the 2022 season. What's courageous about honoring the last year of a deal that you signed after you refused a generous contract extension? 

I don’t know. You should ask owners and team front offices that question when they just up and cut players.

If they’re able to do that, I see no issue with a player using the little power they do have to get the contract they feel they deserve.

Didn’t they make a couple of solid offers that he turned down because he wanted more money and a fully guaranteed contract. How is this entirely on the Ravens?

 

Your neighbor sold his house for $450k

 

your house is way nicer, larger, etc, in the same neighborhood, you going to accept $375k?

 

 No you’ll be demanding $500k

 

thats what Lamar did and rightfully so, people calling him a loser/quitter shows you the lack of understanding basic economics

Knew that narrative would come. Lamar was generous to even suit up for them to start the year, knowing he was trying to get the big contract. Once he got a scare, he was smart to shut it down. Other NFL players agree.

Every play in the NFL is a risk. If he did not want the contract they were offering and was worried about his future, he should have sat out the year instead of collecting a check and and then leaving the team in a bad situation at the end of the year.

I’d love Lamar, and would be willing to part with 2 1sts,  but anything more, I’m ok with going the draft route. Willing to give up a bit more to move up in the draft

Some of that narrative is coming from players, Michael Vick for one.

That team wouldn’t even be in the playoffs if he sat out the year. Lol at leaving them in a bad position.

 

Every play in the NFL is a risk, indeed. That’s the reason he’s sitting out. He wouldn’t get the contract he’s looking for if he had an injury that went into the next year.

I’d love to have Lamar, if you watched the Saints game you’d realize that when he’s ‘on’ there’s literally no defense that can stop him

 

 If the Ravens want to be mad, be mad at the Haslem’s who screwed up the QB pay market but if BAL flinches there’s PLENTY of Billionaires who will make Lamar a 1/4 Billionaire. He puts fans in attendance

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      I think OL is a pretty low overall concern but every single offseason there should be an attempt to upgrade through the draft. Edge rusher there are no easy answers, IMO. If a truly elite prospect falls to us in the 1st, that is fine. This draft seems to be much more heavy on 3-4 DE's or 4-3 DE's than it is on elite EDGE guys. You just have to keep plugging away every offseason and hope it works out. I don't think it's worth trading a ton of draft capital over at the moment, despite being a crucial roster weakness. Do the best you can and build a better roster and maybe eventually we will be in a position to be making a Parsons level trade.

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      By strato · Posted

      I understand that a capable OC is desirable but I also understand, or think I might, the dynamics with the staff and maybe I’m wrong but I do not see Canales firing his offensive right hand guy without significant pressure from Morgan or Tepper to do so.  So that, in addition to Canales stating pretty definitively, that he was keeping play calling.     I don’t know what you do in that circumstance. It would need to be important enough to you to make it worth firing Canales to get your OC play caller.    To that, if Canales not being good so far at play calling (and we only have the one year in TB to factor with what we have see here), is accepted as a given, it is only fair and honest to consider what an impediment having to construct and administer an offense around Bryce Young’s game would be to an OC. I would say it is a big complication, big surprise there.  You won’t know about Canales 100% until you remove Bryce from the equation and get him a clean slate to create from - without the Bryce restrictions.  And yeah you will likely end up without a top notch high flying offense. But it still *could* be much better than it is now. In the right hands.  So that is potentially what we’re looking at. I suppose we could keep Bryce and bring in a college style coach and design a Bryce rollout offense or something and see if that helped. I am not in favor of that, probably the last thing I would want.  We could do nothing, which I am not in favor of. We could fire Canales and keep Bryce (my least preferred option). We could get rid of both, which I would begrudgingly accept but would lament the interruption of the continuity that a 3rd year would provide.  You could get rid of Bryce and get a couple of new QB prospects in here, vets, drafts, whatever… that would be my choice.  I am afraid I know how it’s gonna go. All I can really say about that is, there has not been a single time in three years that I looked at the upcoming game and felt like we were gonna win because we have Bryce Young playing QB. Because of what he could do with the ball in his hands. Not once. Sure there have been a handful of games that he was part of the reason we won, a couple he was a big part, but not enough times to feel like that is my expectation. At best, it is cross your fingers and hope for good Bryce.
