This dude is going to make any team he goes to in the NFC a contender. You haters can call him every name in the book. One thing you can't question this dude simply wins a lot of games even with lesser talent than other QB's.

 

My hope is he stays in the AFC. Please just don't land in Atlanta.

I would LOVE it if he landed in Atlanta

Wherever he goes, they're going to have to give up multiple first round picks and then will be hampered with a monster contract to a player who can't stay healthy and isn't a good enough passer to succeed in the NFL as his legs/body wear down and can't run as much.

Please let him bring that disaster scenario to the Falcons

Hell, I'd love for Lamar Jackson to land in Atlanta with a fat ass fully guaranteed contract via a trade with them parting with two 1st round picks.

I mean, he's messed up everything about this. There's nothing he hasn't messed up.

When his career is said and done he probably would've had hundreds of millions more in career earnings all to try to save 3%.

Oh yea, he made $23 million last year on the 5th year option and would be set to earn $32 million this year on the franchise tag, or a total of $55 million for the two years.

He supposedly turned down $133 million fully guaranteed over 3 years before last season.  

Had he signed that deal, after this year (assuming he plays on the tag for arguments sake) would have already made $88 million and then would have a decision to make.  Try and work out a new contract after the season or play one more year for another $44 million and then become a Free Agent, likely without being able to be tagged as he would have had that in the extension I'd guess.

Having an agent would have been able to make him realize this, but sure guy, convince yourself that acting as your own agent is smart because you turned down a monster deal.

Nah no thanks. You clearly haven't watched Lamar Jackson play football.

 

Giving him a talent like Pitts would be hell for us. Atlanta already has more weapons than he ever had in Baltimore. They also improved on defense. They would be favorites to win the NFC South easily.

 

Stay in the AFC.

Colts, Patriots, Titans, Falcons, Bucs, Lions ... place your bets!

Atlanta already improved on defense. That offense already has more weapons than he had in Baltimore. Not sure what his contract has to do with anything when they already made their FA moves. Lamar doesn't need much around him to win.lol

Lamar Jackson doesn't care about going to a contending team....he wants his bag.  Not that there is anything wrong with that.

Lamar, may wind up finding there is very few teams willing to pay anywhere close to what he thinks he deserves.

Of those teams I think the Patriots are the team to watch. They are the worst team in their division and with Rodgers going to the Jets they need to make a drastic change at QB.

 

Mac Jones can probably fetch them a 2nd round pick as well.

His career high is 3,100 passing yards and last year before getting hurt was only averaging 186 yards a game.

Yes, I know he has his rushing yards, but my point is that part of his game going to decline fast and/or he's going to keep missing time from the hits piling up, like with Cam.

He had a better TE than Pitts with Andrews, not like I'm afraid of Lamar all of a sudden being unstoppable because he has Pitts.

He might make them a tough team to beat for a year or two when he's playing, but it would overall hurt their franchise moving forward.  If Lamar ends up outside of Baltimore, in a few years it will be looked back upon as a worse trade and new contract than Russell Wilson and the Broncos wherever he ends up, so I'd love to see it with a division rival.

He's a worse passer than Cam with a body not even close to Cam's in regards to being built to withstand hits over the years.

Thinking Lamar's career is going to go uphill when Cam's started to go downhill is just asinine

Maybe teams are waiting after the draft so they don't have to trade their pick for this year?

 

 

That was my idea. This panthers team with lamar and full boat of picks form 9, 39, 61, etc.... Along with coaching staff, should have been a shoe-in for decent playoff run (at min)......

Many teams are having issues dealing with lamar and lamar about his contract/demands....but hes got that alllllllll figured out, just ask him.....

Oh I agree he wont last long term. Im talking about these next few years. Add Lamar to the Falcons they win this division imo. 

 

You say he is a worst passer than Cam but he wins way more than Cam as well. I love Cam but he had 1 great season. Lamar has been winning every since he was drafted.

Yea, with one of the better coaches in the league in Harbaugh.

I don’t care what his teams have done in the past, I’m looking at his future as a QB and I don’t think it’s that bright or will be that long.

Just that he’s not signed by the Ravens yet also tells me they think that as well, or else they’d have given him what he wanted by now, and they know him better than anyone else.
