Lamar Jackson

So you know how we've been saying Lamar is dumb for not taking the Josh Allen money route? What if Lamar has entirely different motives? What if he doesn't forsee a long career or he intentionally only wants a second contract and then he's out. All he's trying to do is maximize this deal because this is his last one? Afraid of more injury to his body? CTE?

I don't think any of that is true and it's pure speculation, but I'm just trying to make it make sense lol.
 
I am convinced that some look like this(look below) typing when they either talking negatively about Lamar or trying to go at other posters for their opinions on certain players or about Lamar... Y'all have a great day though ^_^

I’ve been expecting a draft night trade ever since Lamar came out publicly

I was thinking the same, but why wait until draft night if your the Colts?
 
With the Aaron Rodgers situation lingering on, I’m wonder if they Jets pivot and come into play for Lamar. I’d take Lamar over 39 year old Rodgers any time. Lamar + Garret Wilson+ the defense makes them immediate SB contenders.

Doubtful. Hold up on Aaron Rodgers is that the Jets want to give a 2nd and the Packers want their 1st. Highly doubt they’ll pivot to giving up significantly more money and draft capital.

That’s a lot to give up for someone who may or may not be there next year. Rodgers is iffy

Yea but they are also getting a better return. 3-4 years of Lamar Vs 1 year of Aaron. The Packers front office is ridiculous, take that 2nd round pick and move on with Jordan Love. Rodgers quirky drama is not worth the trouble anymore.

Perhaps is a agreement from both teams to wait till draft day just so it blind sides everyone. Like the Ravens would wanna keep it under wraps till then so we can easily draft a QB without other teams trying to trade up and steal our prospects?

REPORT: 'Buzz League-wide' Is The Indianapolis Colts Will Select Will Levis With No. 4 Overall Pick

The Indianapolis Colts might actually be zeroing in on selecting their next franchise quarterback and breaking the trend of short-term stop gap quarterbacks. According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, the ‘buzz’ around the league is the Colts will select Kentucky’s Will Levis with the No. 4 overall pick...

the general, strong consensus is that its A. CJ, B. Bryce, C. Anthony D. Levis for the qb market
if past drafts show value, I will bookmark this post and almost guarantee that this is not the actual order we will see.
and the colts probably agree with that theory, say ranking their guys BAC (used the blood alcoholic content order for Jim Drunk Driver Irsay himself) They want to see how the guys fall before they hit for Lamar.
however, they couldn't just give Lamar the contract, a normal trade with a different comp than just 2 1'st would have to happen, or else we could match them and leave them complete fucked with no qb at all

my cardinals fan friend already let me know that if Bal ends up with the 4th overall, they will want a revenge trade (for us to get to 3) after we robbed them on linderbuam via Drop Soljua boy
 
Just a funny speculation below, I have no basis whatsoever for this.

The talk is how Watson's deal screwed teams and facors Jackson, but what if it is the opposite?
Conventional wisdom has always said that trading for a high-end QB with two 1sts is a pretty much no-brainer.
But with Watson and Wilson last year looking like not-so-great trades thus far, could teams be hesitant for that simple reason? I don't really think that is the case, but considering how extremely trend-sensitive NFL teams are, maybe a little bit of that could go into it.
Anyways, *if* there was anything in that, I would find the irony off the scales if Watson's contract was a detriment to Jackson's contract/trade value :)
