Ravens moving more towards a passing offense with the firing of Greg Roman, and hiring of Todd Monken. Report is they are very interested in adding another passing weapon, either in the draft or trading. Odell, Bateman, potentially either Hopkins/Flowers/Q Johnson

If that's accurate that's...not what I'd call a huge increase (relatively speaking, of course). The guaranteed money is what everyone will be asking about though.

The next question to be answered will be whether it turns out to be a smart deal on the part of the Ravens.

This will definitely be a case study for running QB’s going forward! If Lamar continues to be injured and this contract turns into a mess, the market will lower the value of running QBS for sure.

I wonder who caved first. Lamar or the Ravens.

They both tried to find someone new and when that failed it became obvious they were meant for each other.  A compromise was reached they hugged and kissed to sealed the deal. Video at 11.

People just hated him. I remember debating with one poster about Lamar and Derek Carr lmao

 

This is the truth, too. Quite a few posters who just didn’t/don’t like Lamar. It was pretty easy to see which posters were the ones who don’t like him.

There’s a lot of Huddlers who think they know more than they really do. The Ravens were in 1st with Lamar. Dropped out of first, and the playoff picture without him. Of course they wanted him back.

I mean it's more nuanced than that. We'll see what they ultimately gave him, my guess is they caved as they didn't really have a choice considering the leverage franchise QBs have in today's NFL, but it was completely reasonable to be hesitant to give the dude a fully guaranteed contract considering he has missed that much critical time the past few years.

    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
