The Ravens can’t be this dumb? They’re a smart organization right?

All of these teams say this now, but let's wait until the draft is over, the music stops playing and one or more of these teams is left without a dance partner.

Perhaps, but I wouldn't make any bets on one of those teams being us.

If nobody else is willing to make an offer though, his leverage goes way down.

Why would it? he can still sit out this season and the Ravens have no viable alternative at QB.

They'd get him for the year below the exclusive tag rate while also negotiating with someone who found out his asking price was too much

It’s almost guaranteed he’d hold out.

 

the ravens are going to have to up their offer from before if they want to keep Lamar.

anyone thinking he’s not going to land a deal isn’t reading the room. He’s better than Watson without the baggage.

It doesn't appear they are willing to keep him at any cost. This move gives them the most options on how to move forward.

People mention sitting out and not making 32 plus million for a year is an easy decision. It would equal what he made the last 5 years combined. So it's not like a no brainer for him either 

Agree with this, it is not like he is already sitting on 100M plus in earnings. He will play somewhere this year. He really, really, really needs an agent.

    • Bleacher Report trade and mock has us trading to 9 and picking SG Brayden Burries Charlotte Hornets recieve: Kyrie Irving and No. 9 pick Dallas Mavericks receive: LaMelo Ball, No. 14 pick and No. 18 pick The Hornets just finished their sixth season with Ball. It was only their second with a winning record, their sixth without a playoff trip and the sixth in which someone else paced them in win shares (Kon Knueppel this time around). While they'd surely like to keep building on their second-half momentum, maybe they're just unconvinced that Ball can lead a winning team. Maybe they credit that stretch run less to him and more to the addition of Knueppel, the ascension of Brandon Miller and some out-of-nowhere gains on the defensive end.   Charlotte should be dreaming big right now, and perhaps it believes a steadier hand at point guard is needed to realize that. Or maybe it feels it needs a little more time to bring everything together and thinks that task would be simpler without Ball's money on the books and with a top-10 pick in a loaded draft instead of two selections in the mid-teens.   Either way, this shakeup works. Short-term, a healthy Irving should be far easier to follow than Ball. You may not always know if Irving is playing, but you know what you'll get if he does: elite shotmaking, all-time handles, offensive ingenuity and the ability to work both on and off the ball. He could show this young roster what's required to win for a year or two (he has a $42.4 million player option for 2027-28) or even stick around longer if the partnership proves especially fruitful.   The Hornets also add a building block in Burries, who offers both plug-and-play polish and flashes of shot-creation that hint at star potential. In short, they could better their chances of winning both now and in the future while collecting both the best player in the trade and the highest draft pic
    • I'd hire him in a heartbeat. Hell if he wanted the job, I'd have Canales packing his poo right now and I don't dislike Canales. It's just that firing a 106-58 coach is crazy work. That's a 65% winning percentage. That's the equivalent of averaging 11 wins a season. That's incomprehensible for a fanbase That's never experienced back to back winning seaons.
