Lamar Jackson

I can understand your point of view. Kodak was just recently admitted to rehab. He's had a very troubled upbringing and also abused drugs.

I don't think you simply give up on people but that's just me personally. Back on Lamar, he has not done anything other than know people that you may or may not like.

Of our "superstars" he's been the cleanest so far.

I'm not saying to give up on anyone, there's hope for everyone but pedos, rapist and murderes in my book.

But you're right, as of now Lamar hasn't gone out and done anything stupid that we know..I still have somw respect for Lamar I suppose and I'm sure the 2018 Lamar that we drafted is still there. Just money brings out the worst in everyone unfortunately
 
Whatever happened to the guy who was friends with Decostas cousin that worked in the weight room or whatever that was in here?

I mean we've kinda known this for awhile. But what really matters is:
a) does he want more than Watson in guarantees AT SIGNING, or will he do rolling guarantees like literally everybody else?
b) how many years is he willing to sign for? Frankly, if he wants $235M gtd, he has a 0% chance of getting that unless he signs at least a 6 year deal, and probably closer to a 7-8 year deal.

Like asking for 5/250, with 235M guaranteed, is clearly a non-starter for all NFL teams. Even 6/300 with 235M guaranteed is probably pushing it.

And that's my thing. Maybe it's just me, but I don't know if we'll even offer a 6-year deal.

I'll start by saying, I said they PROBABLY put crap in his head, if you wanna read that again.


When you hang out with the bad crowd, you start becoming them. You really think it was a good idea for Lamar to hang out with a rapper who can't keep himself out of trouble or crazy ass AB who kicked himself out of the league or Hollywood who recently asked to be traded thinking the grass was greener?

I'm not saying I know for sure. Just is something to think about and consider
What about the other 99% of the people who influence his professional life? He just disregards all his teammates and friends around the league so he can take advice from a rapper and a player who pushed himself out of the league?
