 Michael Vick who has really had a lot to say about Lamar Jackson throughout the years very supportive of Lamar Jackson throughout the years Even there was one point where he said he felt like Lamar Jackson is a better quarterback and a better player than he was And I think a lot of us would agree with that and that's obviously not a shot at Michael Vick at all Because Michael Vick was nice man Michael Michael Vick. He was nice man. He was probably my favorite Offensive player to watch back in his day And I mean being a Ravens fan like it's easy to have favorite offensive players from other teams the Ravens offense but anyway Michael Vick was on former Raven former Ravens Titan former Raven Super Bowl champion Shannon Sharps club Shea Shea and the topic brought got brought up about Lamar Jackson's contract and It's funny because my guy Josh He he said it best Because one of the biggest reasons why he didn't why he wanted Lamar contract to be done and over with before this season started because he just knew He knew it will be a subject of conversation really every week, but especially After bad games because that's when people like oh see you this is why he doesn't deserve the contract And it's just it creates this narrative and it's back and forth in this debate, but anyway Michael Vick he had something very interesting to say when it came to Lamar and what he should or perhaps should not One So after hearing all of Michael Vick's points is he right? So YouTube team keep it clean what's going on is engraving here with another video and in this video Michael Vick with some very interesting comments About one Lamar Jackson saying that he should not accept the maximum amount of money that he could possibly get from the Baltimore Ravens and He brought up how yeah, we know that the NFL it is not for long and an injury can happen at any given second So that's why players try to get and coupe as much money as they possibly can Which makes sense because NFL it is a very violent sport and like you mentioned any given snap any given play Things could change like that And I mean he is obviously speaking from experience because he dealt with a lot of injuries throughout his career So he knows a players get get your money But his reasoning on why Lamar Jackson should not Take the most money that he possibly can was because it makes it harder to build a team Around them and I've seen a lot of Ravens fans talk about this Oh, yeah, if Lamar gets 250 mil guaranteed or whatever the guarantee ends up being Then oh Ravens, they're not gonna be able to get anybody else now I've continued to say it before and I'll say it again. That is 100 percent False that is 100 percent a lie if a team wants to build a team If a team wants to continue to come construct a competitive roster if they want to it can be done They can make it happen We look at these Kansas City Chiefs and boy these Kansas City Chiefs They were always around and like with Alex Smith They they will be making a playoffs, but they weren't really making those serious crazy noise like that So then here comes this quarterback Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs they realized like whoa, wait a minute this guy is Special and they already had some weapons with Tyree Hill and Travis Kelson what not But they continue to add more and they continue to to make these competitive rosters year in year out. So then what happened? Patrick Mahomes was do he was do to get paid And what happened did he get paid? He certainly got paid and he had this deal worth up to half a billion dollars The way they they constructed it is like what a 10-year deal and worth up to 500 mil course it got an artist's incentives and whatnot, but bottom line Patrick Mahomes got paid and They still took care of Tyree Hill again He wasn't trading until this last offseason Patrick Mahomes been paid But they still took care Tyree Hill Travis Kelsch Chris Jones and they they got Orlando Brown, Jr. They they continue and you know what chiefs they they always look in the ad more always look in the ad I mean they literally just signed Melvin go I know he missed the fumble and they just signed up what Brian Edwards and anyway The chiefs are always looking to add more But my point is because just because Patrick Mahomes got paid It did not stop the chiefs from continuing to add around their quarterback offense and defense the bills Buffalo bills mr. Josh Allen they drafted this guy and Josh Allen. They were like Know about Josh Allen. So what do they do? They added a Stefan digs. Man, you were saying this cold be easy John Brown You know, yeah, I mean, you know how it goes. They added a bunch of guys or whatnot So then Josh Allen got paid they paid him because they were like, we're not sure about him We see some potential But we're really gonna invest in this quarterback and they invested in him with weapons around him And they also invested in him with money to him and for him But still even after that they continued adding pieces even after Josh Allen got paid Von Miller was an older guy and a lot of us looked at this contract We know the contract isn't everything that it appears to be and that's really with any NFL contract unless It's fully guaranteed. But with our Miller's contract. We looked at that. They're like, man Whoa, he's he paying him a lot of money and it still is a significant contract now But that contract came way after They paid Josh Allen After not before not around the same it came after I Don't want to hear this about oh if Lamar Jackson gets I mean y'all already know I don't even think the Ravens are gonna pay Lamar Jackson as it is I don't think they're gonna give him the money, but because I just I don't think they are invested in him as a quarterback I think they I just don't think that they believe in him as a quarterback I just really don't see it because of how they've moved and how they've operated for these past five years If these past five years with Lamar Jackson have shown you anything or really four and a half But if these past four and a half years have shown you anything about how the Ravens feel about Lamar Jackson It's that they don't believe in him as a quarterback Because again, you we've had this conversation time and time again We've had it time and time again. You you see all these other young quarterbacks these teams are going crazy for him Getting veteran like good veterans still in that prime and getting young guy to get a nice little mix Like like good like significant guys though outside guys You see Kyla Murray, they went and got him D. Andre Hopkins Oh, that should have been all I received but they wouldn't got a D. Andre Hopkins and they still was drafting guys too with a tour Obviously Tyreek Hill Waddle Sicki They went out of stuff Jalen Hertz. He the biggest most recent example And what they did what ten and one and like even with Jalen Hertz like that's how you take advantage of a rookie deal They went and got received they got offensive and they went and got defense to like They doing it on both sides of the ball. They ain't even just about the quarterback. They doing it on both sides of the ball Lamar Jackson and I just I Hate to have to bring this up cuz I don't I don't like like going backwards, but it is still significant unanimous MVP that means it was a clear-cut decision by everybody who voted like it's him. It's him. Ain't nobody else and After the Ravens steel They still go they want they got what at the year after death Brian That was their big acquisition And their big acquisitions at the receiver position have been there's Bryant Willie Snead Seth Roberts Sammy Watkins And again, it ain't no offense to those guys, but it is offensive to Lamar Jackson's quarterback. It's offensive And then this year they like all right By Hollywood he wanted to go anyway. So okay. Bye. He's gone Still have Bateman, but again Bateman. I said it last year. All right Bateman got hurt You can't put all your eggs in that basket cuz it's a lot of unknown what happens this year. He gets hurt again and The Ravens they still got pro shape. We still got Tyler Wallace They don't care about those guys. They've shown you that they've shown you that if they cared about those guys You think the markets Robinson will be here. You think the Sean Jackson will be here You think Andy Isabella even though he's not here. You think he will be here. No, man No, man, then the Ravens in the draft. They have Mark Andrews already. They have Josh Oliver already They have Nick Boyle already and I'm sure with I think with Josh Oliver Maybe they didn't expect that they just kept him around just to be sort of safe with a Nick Boyle but then after Not re-signing Sammy Watkins, which nobody expected them to I don't think we even wanted them to After cutting miles working after trading Hollywood you down three receivers But really to you down to impactful receivers You didn't draft not one you doubled down the tight end We didn't draft not one receiver So they show you how they move man They show you how they move they not invested in them all like that man So for him for Vic, I that's why I heavily disagree with it Oh, yeah, he should take less money to for the Ravens so they could they could build a team No, why cuz they've shown you that they're gonna build a team around him already Defense. Yeah. Oh, yeah, they go crazy for defense, which again, it's awful. It's all philosophy, man It's all philosophy, which we know it's their philosophy. It's what they love what they invest in what they cherish run gaming defense pass game Why do you know So, yeah, if I'm Lamar like no get get your bread. Get your bread. I don't think it's gonna come from the Ravens But get your bread get your money and If the Ravens They don't want to meet your demands. Okay Okay, yeah, it's business. It's still all love. It's gonna be all love regardless but that's the business so and why would like How could you tell somebody not to try to get the most money that they possibly can? Why should he take a hometown discount or a lower rate or something? To help the team when has a team really been going all in to help him. No No They haven't so I would continue as we always have to encourage Lamar to get His bread and get the most bread that you can possibly get why? Because you've already earned it Why didn't gravy
