My man Lamar won MVP.

 

Im sorry but im ending this conversation you clearly just don't like Lamar the player. I can't take you serious when you are questioning a QB who has a MVP and is in the MVP conversation every year.

 

Have a nice day sir!

Its only money holding us back.Its not injury or scheme.We would take him if we could no doubt.He wants to get paid we cant pay him what he wants.He would be a great player for us no doubt.Reich would love to have him.

Just like Stafford right?

Just like Aaron Rodgers right?

Stafford wanted out. The Lions obliged him, but even then there were questions about his injury history (which have proven to be valid).

And yes, there will be plenty of questions about Aaron Rodgers 😄

Herbert about to get $50M per...... 20ish% of the cap.

IDK.....Lamar's injuries scare me and having a QB on a rookie deal is a blessing. If we give Lamar the $$ he's looking for, the team takes a massive roster hit with less money to spread around. 

Makes drafting and finding gems off the waiver wire and practice squads more important. By the same token, kinda hard to do when you trade three years' worth of R1 and R2 picks to acquire said asset.

Gonna say no thank you to Lamar in this situation. 
Lamar seems to be a mobile first type.  Maybe I am not as educated on his game as I could be, but that is what I see at first glance.
That isn’t a long term plan I want to get behind. 


But okay, he *was* MVP. So I want to hear more.  Now I look at what kind of extras the team will have to include like draft picks or players. I am starting to get a little negative. Then mostly negative. 

 Because before you get to the bottom line, there are the financial demands. The weight of which can sink the ship. 

I’d be hoping the Bucs or Saints ‘win’ this one.

That's kind of hard to say when the best skill position player at any time during your career has been the TE.  Really, Andrews has been the only player of note (except for maybe a receiver or two way past their prime).

Fair enough. I do remember that being the situation this year now that you mention it.  
 My 1st cuz is a Raven’s season ticket lifer, lives up there and uses his tickets. I should ask him what the scoop is, I bet it would be as good an answer as you could want from a non pro.  Will try to remember to ask him.

Legit wouldn't make the trade if they gave him to us for a conditional 7th round draft pick.

He's injury prone and only an average passer who is going to want a fully guaranteed contract that pays him as the top QB in the league, HARD PASS

Whatever team signs him to a long term deal, whether it is the Ravens or someone else, is basically guaranteeing they won't contend for a SB for the length of the contract plus 3-5 years after it as they struggle to deal with the cap implications and finding a new QB.

    • I don't necessarily think he will be moved, I would currently be leaning against that notion. I think a lot will depend on the coaching situation. Carroll certainly can't be thinking about wanting to go through a serious strip down and overhaul, so the longer he plans to remain, the less likely I think Crosby gets moved.
    • I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches. 
    • At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.
