And ppl thought Flacco didn't have that killer's mentality. Lamar was about to face that music.
I had missed this live... lol.
Joe was heated.
they're gonna eat so much dead money with bortles whatever happens
of course this is before the kick

Probably told him next time just throw it at a safety and say the receiver ran the wrong route.

That's why I say the leftovers of Joe's contract are probably his greatest asset because whatever cap hit a team takes will be WELL below market value. I would have to check but its in the 10 to 14m year 1 when I have no doubt he gets 20 on open market.
oh yea i realise that lol - 20m for a potential franchise qb (or at least average quick fix) with almost no guarantees for 3 years with the highest hit being 24m post new CBA
id be very surprised if we dont find any takers for that contract even if they take him on just as a stop-gap...
you've gotta think the jags, bucs, dolphins, redskins and maybe the broncos etc. all would be interested potentially

I still think it would be fucking hilarious if we gave him to the Jags...

Oh its WAY lower than that. Any team that trades for him only owes him his salary which barely over half his current cap hit. Having him next year for I believe only 10m (before a still discounted 20m) is just amazing. That alone might make him worth a 2nd
im telling you those are his cap hits
his base salaries for the next 3 years are as follows:
2019: 18.5m
2020: 20.25m
2021: 24.25m
those are his cap hits for his future team if he's traded - his cap hits if he stayed a raven for those 3 years would be 26.5m, 28.25m and 24.25m (no guaranteed money in the last year of this contract no matter who has him)
if we cut him/trade him after this year we save 10.5m on the cap but also have 16m in dead money (might be worth it if we get a pick back), if we hold onto him for another year (unlikely at this point) the dead money halves and we'd save just over 20m against the cap with only 8m dead money
Why does Over The Cap have his base salary at only 8m? Is this one of those I can't scenarios?

16 would be split over two years
Redskins 1st round pick for 3 years and a 2nd for Flacco

I hate injuries... But that might have widened Flaccos market.

And he doesn't have to move either....
He'd be in a much worse situation though... But that's fine. Snyder has pulled off a Herschel Walker trade for RG3. Let's have him do it again! LIT
I do too and agree
RG3 may be worth 3 1st and a 2nd round pick, just sayin.....I bet one team in the league would trade that much for him!

RG3 has probably texted Flacco to retire if we try to send him there.

Genius proposal
I drug the Cleveland Browns GM. I hypnotize him.
He trades 3 1st rounders, a second rounder, PLUS Baker Mayfield, for Flacco.
Baker vs. Lamar QB battle. Hire Lincoln Riley with OBJ, Andrews, and Baker.
Trade Lamar for 3 1st rounders, and a second rounder to Jacksonville.....
Profit
fixed it
the trade works like a cut pre-june 1st so all that dead money comes in all at once im pretty sure so we'd have 16m dead cap and the savings would only be 10.5
if we were to cut him post-june 1st then it'd be only 8m dead money next year but another 8 the year after
