Pretty confident (wishful thinking) that Atlanta manages to sign Lamar Jackson and trade for Derrick Henry while signing OBJ. Book it.

Lamar is definitely a talent but he is often injured. 2018 was the last season he played in every game. You sink a quarter billion into him and he loses a step or 2 because of a knee or ankle them you stuck with a huge salary cap hit from an average throwing QB. He has been out for 9 of the Ravens last 21 games and only played 12 games each of the last 2 seasons. He has averaged missing 3 games a season. He's not the biggest or most durable QB and takes a beating running the ball. Cam Newton was a monster compared to him and running the ball so much took a toll on him.

Only once has he been ranked in the Top 10 for QB completion percentages 2019. The other years he's in the 20's & 30's for Qb Completion Percentage. 2019 was an amazing season for him but his numbers have declined mightily the last 3 seasons. In 2021 Lamar was ranked by PFF as only having the 28th Best Deep Ball Passing Metrics, 1 spot ahead of the Jets Rookie QB Zach Wilson. Lamar was dead last in Long Ball accuracy at 22.6% accuracy.

I'd have no problem signing Lamar to a huge 2-4 year contract but not wanting to be going long term 7+ years Guaranteed Contract with his injury history and declining numbers. He's 15-9 over the last 2 seasons with only a 55 QB Rating.

Doesn't seem like a very good plan to announce you're willing to overpay
Desperation. Pure desperation. I mean how else can they get a key player from a team that just won a superbowl and look likely to continue winning superbowls in the near future to jump ship. To a super crappy team no less.
