The Baltimore Ravens and quarterback Lamar Jackson have yet to come to an agreement on a solution to the stalemate that both sides have been locked into for years. Jackson put in a trade request on March 2nd from the team, something he made public last week in a series of tweets.
In an article from Kristopher Knox of Bleacher Report, he names the biggest potential trades that could still happen in 2023 around the NFL. He named one for Jackson in Baltimore moving him to the Indianapolis Colts, putting together a package of multiple first round picks, including the No. 4 overall selection in the 2023 NFL draft.
“The Ravens could hold out for more than the two first-round picks by threatening to match Indianapolis’ offer sheet but offering to trade Jackson for additional compensation. If Indy stands to improve significantly—therefore making its 2024 and 2025 first-round picks low selections—Baltimore could want a little extra in the deal…Alternatively, the Colts could strike a bargain with Jackson and the Ravens, execute a trade for less than two first-round picks and then extend the quarterback before the July 17 deadline.”
