Lamar requests trade
#16
While all of this surely is not good for the Ravens, there have been several here that see it as the Ravens melting down, etc. I do not see it that way. I see it as the Ravens being the Ravens and playing things very smart. It would be ridiculous to give Lamar the contract he wants, not just because of the precedent it would reinforce, but because his history and his playstyle says he'll never fulfill the contract. On top of the post season woes he's had.

The true disaster for the Ravens would be giving him 5 years guaranteed and then lose him for a season or two during the contract, which is HIGHLY LIKELY considering the history. No. The Ravens showed last year that with excellent defense and mediocre QB play, they can still compete. If they upgrade to average QB play they'll contend.

All the critics and people saying "Pay Him" keep saying "He's a former MVP. Pay him!" Yeah former MVP - three+ years ago and declined every year since and injured every year since. So I say, sure, yes, it's a mess for the Ravens of their own doing, but PAYING Lamar is not the solution to the problem. Getting rid of him while getting as much value as you can, is.
