When discussing the future of this Baltimore Ravens franchise, the topic often comes back to the assumed monster contract of one Lamar Jackson.
If we’re doing this under the pretext of Jackson receiving said deal, and it is indeed a whopper, that’s definitely something to take under consideration when trying to forecast this team’s fortunes in coming years. It will be a lot of money. There’s a salary cap. That “lot of money” will take up a significant share of the salary cap.
Therefore, the sky is falling, the Red Coats are coming and the time for judgement is now upon us, right?
