Allen Robinson for 15m a year or Curtis Samuel for 8m a year?

Consider the fact that Robinson has already gotten a big contract and has made some money, so maybe if he going to a contender, he will take a little less. Probably naive to think this matters, but I digress.

Considering Arob liked a tweet mentioning the Ravens should get him, I don't think so.

He liked other tweets about Miami and one other team too. Wouldn't read much into it.

Then the run game would run wild. With Robinson in the lineup defenses would have to pick their poison. Get gashed in the run game or be singled up on Hollywood and Robinson and truly see if Lamar can beat teams with his arm.

Would Allen Robinson want to sign with the Ravens? With the way this offense is designed, its can't be an appealing place for WRs

**Ravensforce83** · 01-19-2021, 02:44 PM

While I could see some guys thinking they won't get as many opportunities here you also have to remember and consider 1) this is a perennial playoff team for the most part. 2) the organization has a phenomenal reputation among players as a top place to play 3) from an ego standpoint I can imagine that the opportunity to improve the Ravens passing game is attractive

**Shrubbs** · 01-19-2021, 02:46 PM

I know we all really really want him, but we’re not getting A Rob. We won’t get Samuel either.

Its possible that he sees himself as the last piece to the puzzle. If he indeed got a contract he could be now looking for a chance at a ring and what better place to do it then in this offense?

The Ravens would have to commit to any prospective WR that they were going to move to a more balanced offensive attack. Otherwise, no good WR would want to sign here.

Agreed. I'm just saying I don't think it'll be a problem if the $$ is right.

Probably right. Because I think the Ravens WILL make the adjustments in their passing offense this off season. In the Bills game, when Andrew’s drew double coverage, Lamar threw it anyway. Lamar wasn’t throwing what the defense gave him on occasion (I’m not saying it’s his fault, btw). But in 2021, with a new passing attack, Lamar will also be better at his reads, timing, audibles and hot routes, so it should all pan out. It will be like 2019 all over again! (Sans the 2019 playoffs)

This is true, however, if I were a big time WR, I’d want to see it first...telling me something, especially with the way this roster is built wouldn’t move me at all.
