The guy wants Deshaun Watson money, but I am not sure he's really worth that. Yes, he is a REALLY good dynamic QB...but he's been atrocious at times this year passing the ball...but then he flashes craaazy skill like he did on that TD pass to Deshaun Jackson yesterday.
IDK man, I may have to just bite the bullet and pay the guy because good QB play is hard to find...but IMO I just don't think Lamar is a great passer. As he ages and teams continue to game plan around his athleticism, it may end up being a terrible contract.
It’s not weird to me. The going price for an all pro QB is 50+ right now. He’s an all pro level guy. He’s better than Kyler who got that type of money. He’s better than Deshaun Watson who got the money he got.
Your team is consistent top of the division and top of the AFC. There is no reason to question paying him. To the Ravens credit the issue is only about how much of it is guaranteed. With Deshaun getting all his money guaranteed it’s gonna be really hard for a better QB to accept less than that.
This is the reason some ppl were saying the Browns just ruined the league with signing Deshaun Watson.
