I don't think it works like that. They can't just have a deal in place because the Ravens get a chance to match the offer. And they have to get it done before another team makes an offer first.
I still think that if Atlanta or Carolina want Lamar; it only makes sense to trade down first and then make the offer.
I'd also imagine they want the deal done at the start of free agency so they can put their team together accordingly
