Interesting twist regarding Lamar Jackson...

I haven't read it or seen it anywhere else across the numerous threads, but was listening to ESPN radio while taking the kids to school, and they shared that Peter King said the Ravens are very likely to use the non-exclusive franchise tag on Lamar, meaning it would only require the contract plus 2 first-round picks. That's also very different than the "windfall of picks" stuff we heard about previously.

It seems a more realistic possibility than the "windfall" talk.  Still, giving up the picks plus the mega contract is scary for a team trying to build out its roster, but does that change how you feel about the possibility of Jackson?

Not really. Jackson’s a good player but injuries are starting to factor into his availability the last few years. I think a younger QB with better accuracy is what will work better for Reich’s system but that’s JMO.

Fffffuuuucccckkkkk no.

The guy still wants a hell of a lot of guaranteed money and it’s reported that he and the Ravens are 100 million apart on negotiation.

He has missed 10 games in the last 2 years. I’m good.

He also doesn't have an agent so it's apparently been a headache to negotiate with him which is why they are so far apart. 

Browns really screwed the market up with Watson.

I mean, I've already said it in so many words, that we don't exactly know what the number is. We are just hearing noise at this point. The devil is in the details.

The two firsts are the cost of doing business. That part of the deal means basically nothing in the acquisition of a franchise QB.

 It would require a bunch of digging from our front office. It's more going on from both sides that none of us know. Ed Reed spoke on the fact that Baltimore  has a great front office but feels Lamar needs a change of scenery  because  he feels slighted. Some speculate that he really didn't want as much as drawn up and just wanted out no matter what. I'll say this tho, with Wilson and Watson contracts last offseason  and their performances after... Any team trading for him has valid reasons to negotiate a better contract.

    • Underhill, it was beiong discussed At The Time. The lack of deep balls. One reason Dalton got hit, yes, was standing in and delivering a deep ball. It’s just a lot quicker to say wake the fug up where have you been. 
    • I don’t see how a pro could miss stuff that took me 15 minutes to see. Never understood how they could not see it. 
    • When a certain food allows it, add vinegar to it if you are a dietetic. Research has shown that vinegar inhibit starch digestion and allows food to stay in the stomach longer. In turn, this helps to reduce the chances of your blood glucose levels from rising after you have eaten a meal. If you have Gestational Diabetes then the concept of "eating for two" needs to be forgotten. You'll need to reduce your food intake to small amounts every few hours to keep your blood glucose levels in check over the long term of a day. Don't forget to have a snack before bed to control overnight blood sugar! To make sure your family understands your needs, take the time to explain diabetes to them. Discussing your condition with them will give them valuable knowledge they can use to help you in a crisis. It will also make them aware of things they can do to help. You may even find that talking about your diabetes is very cathartic.
