should've tried to get hopkins then if this is true
We only have 5 picks in the draft and your have to sign Hopkins long term if we traded for him. That's a lot more capital to give up than Odell.

Lamar made it known that he wanted Odell, as seen by them talking multiple times this off-season and then hanging out together at the club last night. The Ravens did what they had to do and could do.

Still wouldn't mind taking a WR at 22 (or w/e our 1st pick winds up being at).
Y’all have zero reason to not get a WR early. Gotta hit on one of them one of these days and it’ll be good for him to learn to be that #1 behind OBJ. Especially since it’s likely he’ll have weeks when he’s WR1. Scary move for the rest of the division as long as Lamar sticks around

Yeah there’s been alot of leaks recently

Don’t know if I trust them cause the Ravens usually don’t leak shyt

they also said we had a deal in place with the Broncos for Courtland Sutton but the Broncos backed out at the last second

also saw another report saying they’re still trying to get Hopkins if he gets cut

this is not new info. Ian Rappaport is referring to the deal last September. The deal is for 5 years 250 with 133 fully guaranteed at signing and 175 total guarantee for injury. the other 25 is eligle after year 3 which is where the 200 comes from. (175+25) but in reality it’s really 175 guaranteed that was offered cuz the injury guarantee is pretty much automatic

The injury guarantee is not automatic

Why do you think the Raiders told Derek Carr to go home once they knew they were getting rid of him

If you’re healthy you don’t get the injury guarantee

The Ravens offer was 133 guaranteed

All those other numbers are bs

stop comparing apples to oranges . The reason the injury guarantee is basically automatic is because the ravens worded the langauge so that they would take a 70 million cap hit if he is cut prior to it kicking in. no team would take that big of a cap hit . as king as he doesn’t get shot or paralyzed in a car accident he would be getting the 175. Carr didn’t have that language which is why Vegas could just cut him, there was no downside to it .

even if you don’t wanna believe the 200 (or 175 which is the real number ) they still offered a full $23 million more guaranteed at signing a whole YEAR ago than Hurts got today. 133 vs 110. undisputed facts. I rock with Lamar like y’all but just call a spade a spade. he hunting for the watson contract and that is an OUTLIER!! point blank. Burrow ain’t getting it either . he just need to sign a deal and ball out. end of story,
