Also if you're trading a high round pick or high caliber player for Orlando Brown it will be with an extension. Think 5 year 17m to 20m a year.
Again, how can they be Top-10 if the team only ever had 17 sacks total?
Are they saying that Lawson created all 17 of the sacks? There's 13 teams with 40+ sacks. Just seems really improbable that Lawson was responsible for "creating" top-10 sacks.
Regardless of what the extension is, you still have the player for $14m less in Year 1. That's $14m out of the Ravens current $29m in cap space.
Pick 5 for 27 and Brown
As to the : Not within the division slant.
Why wouldn't the Ravens want us to get better? Maybe knock off the Browns or Steelers once or twice.

They are saying his initial pressure forced sacks for other players. It isn't really that big of a surprise Lawson was the only defender that forced consistent QB pressure on the team.
