Following a prolonged injury absence (and a curious no-show during Baltimore\u2019s playoff loss), many have questioned if Lamar Jackson<\/a><\/strong> has played his final snap for the Ravens. Many NFL GMs are asking the same question, and some executives have surmised that the quarterback is indeed available. \u201cRival teams perceive Jackson to be available,\u201d executives told Jason La Canfora of the Washington Post<\/a>. Some of these possible suitors have already started identifying assets that they could give up in a potential trade.<\/p>\n

There are a handful of wrinkles when it comes to a potential Jackson trade. Besides preferring to send Jackson out of the AFC, the Ravens would also be eyeing a deal that nets them both draft picks and<\/em> young talent. Further, Jackson would have a say in where he\u2019s sent, as no team would sacrifice valuable future assets without an assurance that the quarterback would sign a long-term deal. Plus, assuming Baltimore hits Jackson with an exclusive franchise tag, he would have a de facto no-trade clause until he signs the tender.<\/p>\n

Still, there will surely be some teams that are willing to make the blockbuster move. Executives pointed to the Panthers and Falcons as potential suitors, with both teams having made strong runs in the Deshaun Watson<\/a><\/strong> sweepstakes. For Carolina, La Canfora tosses out an idea of a package based around Jaycee Horn<\/a><\/strong>, the No. 9 pick, a future first-round pick, and a future second-round pick, and an NFL GM suggested that\u2019s the kind of trade haul it will take.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019ve got to find an owner who hasn\u2019t been able to find his guy [at quarterback] and won\u2019t be scared off by the price tag,\u201d<\/em> one GM told La Canfora. \u201cAnd it\u2019s probably a team that is going into next year on the brink. It\u2019s kind of a make-or-break year for the coach or the GM.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

On the flip side, Joel Corry of CBS Sports believes<\/a> the Ravens won\u2019t trade Jackson in 2023, with the former agent describing 2024 as the \u201cyear of reckoning.\u201d A second franchise tag would have the QB eyeing a whopping $54MM haul for the 2024 campaign, and Jackson would still have the ability to finally hit the open market in 2025. Corry opines that the Ravens don\u2019t have to rush a trade right now (especially when they\u2019re in a position to compete), but they\u2019ll be eyeing a significant decision in 2024. If Baltimore doesn\u2019t trade Jackson next<\/em> offseason, then they\u2019d be running the risk of committing more than $100MM to him for 2023 and 2024 and then being left with just a compensatory pick when he signs elsewhere as a 2025 free agent.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s even a chance that Jackson re-signs with the Ravens. It was just last week that we heard the Ravens were still \u201call-in\u201d on an extension for their franchise player, even with the \u201cpowers-that-be\u201d having become \u201cfrustrated to the point of exasperated\u201d with the player\u2019s absence. Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic cautions<\/a> that any new deal between the two sides surely won\u2019t be agreed to by the March 7 franchise-tag deadline.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
