The Lamar situation is getting weirder by the second.
Even if BAL and Lamar come together on $$$ they need a lot of hugging and counseling to repair their relationship.
I think Lamar is out for Lamar only which i get in pro sports he just doesn't hide it very well.

NFL warns clubs not to negotiate with ‘uncertified person’ attempting to act as Lamar Jackson’s agent
He also has a guy calling teams to start negotiations with him. Lamar is pretty dumb guy

I like this tweet from Ben Standig, with all the national media suggesting collusion and say teams like Washington need to make a move
Every team has flaws, makes mistakes, etc, but the Ravens are considered a pro operation and not just in comparison to Washington.
Therefore, more understanding needed as to why they wouldn't keep Lamar at all costs before stating any other team is nuts for not going all in.
Baltimore either dont want him at his price or are going to match any offer made

I really don't understand these teams who have stable QB situations trying their best to destabilize them.
With the crazy amount of talent at QB in the AFC, why TF are you going to roll out with Tyler Huntley?

The issue is the Watson deal, I think owners are saying as awhile we are not making that the bar for premium QBs.
In this mess IMO bmore has played it more correctly and as of now no one is willing to pay for Lamar. The market is saying he is not Watson money, fuck even Watson not Watson money the Browns were just desperate.
Lamar needs 1999 DS when he was just crazy over spending.

The market is not dictating that he's not worth the money, the owners are colluding to now allow another Watson deal. It is always the case that every new QB deal sets the market for QBs. Watson set the market, whether the owners like it or now.

My take is LJ saw the Watson deal and probably based on his MVP season alone said "I want that".
Baltimore said "We want to keep you, but not at that price. DW is a QB that can also run when he has to but is a better passer, and that's always his first option. You are valuable to us but you're not the same quality passer. Here's the deal we're at. Oh and you probably should get an agent."
"No, I and I alone think you are wrong, I'm worth DW money and I'm going to hold out for that kind of deal. If you can't pay me someone else will."
"Lamar, given your recent injury history nobody is going to offer you that deal, not to mention what we already said. Get an agent (preferably someone that can talk sense into you)."
"I do not agree, lets see what happens."
"OK, but we're tagging you. You do realise that means if some idiot comes along and offers what you want, we'll get picks to replace you, even if we chose not to match their offer. You don't really hold the cards here."
"I reject your reality and substitute my own. I'm getting one of my homies to have a chat with the other teams."
Other NFL teams "Who da F is this guy asking to talk? Hey B'more, can you get LJ to sign an agent please? We'll talk, but not to some guy off the street."
"Hey, don't ask us, not our problem. Talk to Roger."
At which point Goodell goes and finds a cupboard to hide in.
Nobody is going to come out smelling of roses here, but LJ is making himself look a fool. I don't believe there is collusion because he's not a Mahomes, Burrow or Allen. Or Watson for that matter. On his day he's a top 10 QB but he's not in that elite stratosphere, and nobody is stupid/desperate enough at this point to pay what he wants, if they ever will be. If he's not careful he's going to be another Cam Newton.
