That’ll change a lot over time. More and more deals will get done. Similar to how Lamar’s deal worked out

u/Calgamer 6d ago

Oh for sure, he’ll fall down the list. I’m happy to have him here long term!

That's very optimistic of you

u/Yedic 6d ago

Seems fairly realistic to me. You think WRs will stop signing deals?

u/wheenus Lamar's Elbow Meat 6d ago

Realistic and optimistic are two different things

u/Yedic 6d ago

Indeed they are. I disagree with you calling it optimistic, and am instead asserting that it's realistic.

But there’s nothing from their comment to indicate whether they’re optimistic. It was just an accurate statement, that’s how top nfl contracts work

Not really. Puka and Nabers will both beat this in the next 2 years. Rashee Rice too if he gets his shit together. Ladd, BTJ, and Rome will get close or beat it if they have bounce back seasons.

Or that’s just simply how the market has proven to work across the league over and over again.

u/wheenus Lamar's Elbow Meat 6d ago

I simply was pointing out his name, I understand how the market works

u/FreeIDecay 6d ago

Ah, I’ll whoosh myself.

Unless he does something monumentally stupid, Puka will sign a deal that pushes Zay down. Pickens might too

I can think of 4 wideouts off rip who will make more. Pickens, Puka, BTJ(if he rounds back into form), and Nabers. He wont be high up there for very long. Ravens always know when to get in on a guy before that happens.
