So, I think whether he is starting RT where he grades out as top 5 to 10 in league or a LT where he did well when Stanley went down, he deserves a ton more money from the Ravens or he should sit out or demand a trade.
But knowing Ravens, they will pay him and when they do, there goes their cap money for 2021 (or a lot of it and theme of this thread).

They have $29m, so it's not like they're hurting for cap space since they're not the Bengals who look at $40m and say "$15m".

The Ravens also only have $92m in cap commitments for 2022 right now, so they can kick the can down the road a bit more.

Of course that all is dependent upon if they blow up their team by signing Lamar Jackson to a huge extension, which they might have to do despite his huge postseason red flags and lack of passing game.

Ravens need to just accept they're a running/defense team that just needs a game manager, and get a king's ransom for Jackson by someone foolish enough who doesn't have a great running game and spectacular defense already. Last two years the Ravens have had 2 700+ yard (5.0 YPC) RBs each each that aren't named Lamar Jackson. They also haven't had a defense that isn't Top-3 since 2017.
