The "Flacco Thread" (Merged from 5 threads)
Watching Drew Brees and Matt Ryan this evening has got me thinking (which is always dangerous):
1) Is Joe a top 10 QB? top 15?
2) If the answer to one of the questions above is "yes," does a franchise tag make any sense? (more of a rhetorical question)
3) What do we do if we let him test the FA market, and someone is willing to pay him "above market?"

Re: What is Joe worth?
Not this again...
Joe will get a long term contract here. I don't care if people consider him a top 10 or 15 QB. I really don't care how much he's paid. As long as it doesn't kill our salary cap. Joe will not see free agency.Master of 'Gifs for dummies'

Re: What is Joe worth?
Worth...less. According to some and the NFL media.
Why not - get a bargain for a QB that has the ability to win a SB - regardless if he's thought of as elite or not. I say talk him down some more! :lol:Self appointed Ravens SuperFan in the southern hemisphere/New Zealand.

I see more like 7 years 110-115. Worth every penny because at some point, the cap is going to blow up and 17 million is going to look like a steal for a franchise QB.
My motto was always to keep swinging. Whether I was in a slump or feeling badly or having trouble off the field, the only thing to do was keep swinging. -Hank Aaron

Re: What is Joe worth?
Joe will get paid more than "market" value whatever that is. What's the alternative? Joe may or may not be "elitie", but we can win a Super Bowl with Joe. Unless you can guarantee a replacement who is as good or better, we have to pay him. I get frustrated with the sub par performances on the road, but also wonder what would have been if Joe came out in 2003 instead of Kyle.

Re: What is Joe worth?
The first rule of negotiation is that you should always be willing to walk away from the table. Otherwise, we'd pretty much have to give him the keys to the castle.

Re: What is Joe worth?
Joe is going to get paid. A lot. He will be on the Ravens at least another 7 years or more.
