March 27, 20232 yr comment_1700964 I don't think any other team is willing to trade to Baltimore something they'd prefer to Lamar. So he'll either be playing on the tag this season or holding out (or getting an agent and signing a realistic deal).
March 27, 20232 yr Author comment_1700976 I sincerely doubt he plays another snap in Baltimore. He will hold out before he plays for them again.
March 28, 20232 yr comment_1700986 Lamar and his must have been big fans of the show The Game...He's Malik and she's Tasha Mack

March 28, 20232 yr Author comment_1701030 If a similar thing had happened in Cincy, the league would be a in a meltdown over the "crisis in Cincinnati" - weird how the Ravens keep getting a pass...
March 28, 20232 yr comment_1701036 Jonah asking for a trade is our version of this. But JW is a lot less vital to the Bengals than LJ is to the Ravens. Tyler Huntley was somehow named to the Pro Bowl roster last year ahead of either Tua or Herbert but that was a joke. If Jackson leaves charm city, they are hosed, at least for this year.

I know it's Cleveland but they've really outdone themselves. He didn't even look like that great of a QB. Bizarre. Even if Watson wasn’t a serial massage therapist assaulter, it was a stupid contract. They will be tying up close to 1/3 of their cap next year on one position.

If that isn't a big "Fuck You!" to team and management I can't imagine what is. Talk about poisoning the well (or at least pissing in it); are we reaching the irreconcilable differences point? I'm beginning to think Jackson is the epitome of the saying "He who represents himself has a fool for a client". Jackson is literally the dumbest person on the planet. Now any team that actually wants him knows the price just went down. Publicly demanding a trade is just stupid. The reality is the word about what actually went down last year has probably spooked most of the owners. The rumors are he probably could have played that playoff game but chose not to. Can you imagine Burrow or Mahomes sitting out a playoff game unless they were missing a limb?

Seriously, WTF were they thinking? Did the Texans have one of their kids at gunpoint?

So they can’t even fill positions with high round picks on rookie contracts. They will need to use lower tier FAs to fill roster spots.

The point of demanding a trade was to make teams that might want Jackson to deal with Baltimore. If they just sign Jackson without a deal in place, Baltimore might match the offer, thank the other team for negotiating a contract they can live with, and look forward to the season. Jackson probably thinks his trade value is higher than the 2 first round picks Baltimore would get if they don't match an offer sheet. So a team reaching an agreement in principle with the Ravens would be his best shot at a change of scenery. Of course they'd still have to offer him a contract that he'd sign. I agree with your point that he's an idiot for not having an agent, he could have had something like the Josh Allen deal from 2021 that has paid Allen about 60 million more than Jackson has made in the last 2 years.

Yep, if he had an agent who could have been his advocate 24/7 he probably would have already had a Kyler Murray type deal on the books. Worse is waiting this long has already priced him out of many club’s reach like Tampa Bay who simple don’t have the cap space. The agent could have set a realistic expectation and also marketed and signed him to endorsement deals. The guy literally has almost zero endorsements. All for the reasonable cost of 3%.

Has to be one of the worst trades ever made. Copium supplies in Cleveland must be running dangerously low right now because this seems like "burn your jerseys on TikTok" levels of mismanagement.

Ask Robert Griffin III about playing on a bad leg for the good of the team.
