If you can squeeze a Vick with the Eagles result from him you've got a contender if his legs aren't shot.

Hey, bitch boy, I Belize you still have some evidence to post to satisfy your end of a bet.

He asked for the trade almost a month ago, and no traction so far that we've been aware of. Nobody is willing the pay the two 1sts to get him away with an offer sheet, and nobody is willing to go higher than that for a trade. Lamar backed himself into a corner on this one and will likely have to take less money as the Ravens have him locked down.

Eh - offer sheets on a non-exclusive franchise tag are pretty cost prohibitive. 2 first rounders is steep.

I can't imagine the Ravens would ask for less on a formal trade.

Quite frankly, i'd expect them to ask for more than just two first rounders.

Also of note: apparently Dan Marino, Brett Favre, and Jim Kelly both scored 15 on their Wonderlic.

Donovan McNabb scored a 14.

Lamar Jackson scored a 13.

A 13 is pretty good for a running back

That wouldn't make any sense - why would a team ever give more? If Jackson isn't willing to play on the tag, his stand-alone rights have very little value. So why wouldn't you just offer him what you'd offer him and give up the 2 firsts?

No, they're not asking for more than that because there's just no way to leverage it that way.

I'd bet they're asking for less because at this point they WANT to move on from him. And if nobody will give up the 2 firsts, they might be able to get 1. Or a couple seconds or whatever.

Jackson is a distressed asset at this point and they'd be looking to get him moved for less than the tag requirements.

He could hold out and **** them capwise. Sure...he loses a year of eligibility and the $32 million but it's not like he gives a shit right now. Or it doesn't seem like he does.

He could hold out.

Wouldn't technically be a hold-out as I don't believe he's actually signed his tender. It would be similar to the OBJ thing from last year where he just delays signing the tender. And the Ravens could likewise yank the thing but I don't think they'd do it.

I wonder if the trade request is more to send a signal to Baltimore that he would be willing to sign the tender in a sign/trade scenario. Because technically the Ravens really couldn't trade him if he hasn't signed the franchise tender.

Technically yeah that would be correct. Makes it tougher on the Ravens since they can't fine him.

Raven fans not happy.

Right. He has a lot of control over the timelines here but he needs to develop a market for that to matter.

Dude needs to hire an agent. This is silly.
