Lamar Jackson gets non-exclusive tag - Edit, New Deal!

[ASUCHRIS]

The only proper thing to do would be for the Ravens to give the Cards a first back for Hop. Fair play for getting a first from us for Hollywood.

No! Do not give up a 2nd rounder.

Also, don't do a damn thing with Baltimore, until pick #3 is settled. Make them sweat it out.

Man… all Hop nets us is an uptick in 11 spots from a high 2nd rounder to a low-ish first rounder in what’s supposed to be a bad draft? That would be sad.

Gotta be some details missing. Hopefully get the 86th pick from them as well.

Just yesterday, it was Bills and Chiefs only....lol If all three teams are in play, you make them sweat it out and pony up just a bit more.

The only detail missing is the middle finger.

And now they can trade for DHop...Lamar's new deal gives cap space to do it.

I'd want a conditional al 2024 pick, e.g. a 4 that becomes a 3 if DHop has x catches or x tds. Remember Harry inferred that the Cardinal scouts were to reassess the prospects in the 20s. They knew this was coming.

Yeah, that's just silly. I might give up Hopkins and #105 for their 1st, but would prefer giving up #168.

The extra option year can be important.

I would have not signed that deal if I was the Ravens' GM. But Who am I to say that?

 

[Chopper0080]

Also depends on what you are looking for. If you want the best C or a top IOL or CB or EDGE...those spots can matter more than an extra 4th.

Agreed. I think it is better than a third but would like a conditional 2024 pick. The Ravens don't have much draft capital this year.

Who says we can’t trade down from #22?

 

[AZCrazy]

We gave up a straight 1st for Brown, whom I like, but Hop is a far better player. A HOF'r in his prime.
I'll take #22 straight up, or go pound sand. Maybe take 22 and switch 2nds.

You're comparing a then 24 year old WR on his rookie deal to a 31 year old WR with coming off of both injuries and a PED suspension who makes $20 million. It's not the same thing. Sorry, Hopkins won't get a 1st rou d pick.

 

[Garthshort]

A lot has to do with which team (us/them) is paying DHop's salary this year?

 

[oaken1]

21 for 34... thats about the equivalent of a late 2nd rd pick right?

I mean, if we had 21 and a team offered us pick 55 and 34...
Maybe 48? To move back 13 spots?

Thats fair comp for Hop, and gives us a 5th year option on another rookie
