I don't know why anyone takes Pro Football Talk seriously. Florio, King and Simms are all hot take artists masquerading as detached analysts.
At least the networks hiring people like Stephen Smith and Skip Bayless are honest about the product they hawk.
Out of all the major network football talking heads, I find them to be the least annoying. That's not saying much when most of them are retarded.

Is Skip honest about his stupidity? As far as I know, he's genuinely retarded.

Mike Florio is one of the dumbest people in the NFL media group. I honestly enjoy listening to him and Rich Eisen talk because its truly hilarious to see how stupid it will get. Eisen is dumb enough to believe everything Florio says and Florio will just ramble about the dumbest shit. Like he will make up something that isn't true and just run through an entire scenario about it. The one about the Colts signing Lamar is pretty funny
Ballard is afraid to spend any money in free agency thinking it's his own money he's losing. He would never sign Lamar and risk not having the most cap space for the 5th year in a row.

Oh, I'm not talking on the talking heads' part. They're stupid. I mean the channels willing to hire them know they're selling a hot take entertainment show and not real analysis.

He would also lose his job. Every one of these retards posing as analysts can say the dumbest trades, act like the NFL GMs are idiots/colluding to not do it, and will face 0 consequences of the fall back to those actions. Its the dumbest thing

I would say it at least makes money but with more layoffs at places like ESPN, it clearly isn't anymore.

Yeah, which he is already afraid of. He said that he's worried about drafting a QB with high pick and missing, since he would likely lose his job. He's not wrong, just a pussy.

Remember when people thought the Broncos fleeced the Seahawks? Analysts are retarded. Its ok to admit not knowing something or waiting for things to play out.

Also, I'm very sick of all the Lamar talk. I wish that retard had an agent so I wouldn't have to see this all the time.

Its hard to say what he should do since its his ass on the line, not mine. But yeah, wiffing on a QB right now would really fuck him over. Although if he is drafting the 3rd or 4th name off the board, he might get a little more rope depending on how other things play out
 
Baltimore learned its lesson when they "had" to re-sign Joe Flacco to big money after he beat Colin Kaepernick in the Super Bowl.

Edit: Jesus, I forgot when Joe Flacco signed, he was the highest paid NFL QB in history that the time; although he was quickly surpassed. Also, $20M per year was big money for a QB only nine years ago. Flacco then immediately had the worst season of his career after signing.

Ozzie gutted the team after the super bowl. The only mainstay of the line left was Yanda at RG. Birk retired at center after redeeming himself from the previous year when he let Wilfork bulldoze him all game. Starting LT was gone, but he was also a headcase. I don't even remember who the RT was but I believe Osemele took over the LT duty and was adequate but the line had no cohesion. Ray Rice couldn't get any running lanes and had his worst year as well. Then the heart of the team was gone with Ray retiring, Ed Reed being let go, and Bernard Pollard being released. So there went the three guys who were willing to stand up for the boys in the locker room from an insecure head coach. They did a good job retooling, got a proper OC that wasn't one of the Philly retreads Harbaugh kept bringing in his entire tenure, and went back to the playoffs again in 2014.

And Ozzie did it because, after the 2000 win, Ozzie worked to keep the core together in an attempt to continue to contend and it bit them in the ass really bad so he vowed not to make the same mistake. He kept the QB in hopes of building around him again since Flacco was still relatively young and while he was average in the regular season, he balled out in the playoffs. Unfortunately the core left around him on offense, Torrey Smith, Pitta and Rice.. well.. shit happened to two of them and one man can't carry an offense. Then after 2014 Flacco blew out his knee and he turned in to a statue behind the line with no mobility and that was a wrap for him really.

He would also lose his job. Every one of these retards posing as analysts can say the dumbest trades, act like the NFL GMs are idiots/colluding to not do it, and will face 0 consequences of the fall back to those actions. Its the dumbest thing

Not if Irsay got drunk enough and told him to make a deal. Which is what everyone should be fucking shocked about when it comes to Lamar's demands. When a drunk, drug addled Irsay, and a complete sociopath in Dan Snyder have refused to even try to cut a deal with Lamar should tell everyone how bad his demands are. Remember, Dan Snyder is the idiot who signed Albert Haynesworth to that ridiculous 100 million dollar contract.

Snyder has one foot out the door with a sale though. But yeah, point still stands. Why would anyone want to deal with Lamar. And Lamar isn't even cold calling anyone or trying to create his own buzz without having an agent. So every owner and GM can talk with each other about how stupid the contract demands are and who this other retard is trying to negotiate and Lamar is just sitting at his house with his mom probably talking about how he deserves money

Lamar has no clue what he's doing. Baltimore has been trying to get him a new contract since his 3rd year but when he came in to sign it, like he said he would, he looked at it and then left. No negotiating, he just went to "talk to his team" and then fucked off. Lamar made less than 2 million dollars his 3rd and 4th years each and if he had signed that contract, he would have already been in line for another contract either next year or the year after when he's still in his mid-twenties. This dip shit has cost himself so much money by not having an agent its embarrassing and he talks about wanting to become the first billionaire NFL player.

Here's someone smarter than me talking about what he's cost himself.

 
Lamar is now asking for a trade from the Ravens lol. He's not going to have many suitors with his contract and the capital the other team will have to give up to get him. He's really making the worst decision at every turn.
He apparently requested in on March 2nd lol. He has no idea what he is doing and is fucking up his career. And I am here for it
 
Same lol. Its no Antonio Brown but he's acting just as dumb
At this point, I am convinced he has no idea what he is doing and hopes the Ravens will do his job for him. He was allowed to shop himself in the market to get his markets worth after turning down a deal 2 years ago that would have gotten him paid and getting another pay day because he thought he was smarter than basic NFL agents. Then he tried to negotiate a Watson deal that was never going to happen and the Ravens let him go into the market and see what his real value is. Now he has no idea how to build up interest or do anything to build a market. Now he wants the ravens to trade him and make the market he can't build. Just becoming worse and worse all along because its him and his retarded mother feeding him crap
 
Looks like I was wrong. Ballard is interested in Lamar lol! I'm still skeptical he'll go through with it. Irsay is a wild card while Ballard is the complete opposite. I wonder where Steichen will lean toward.

Hey, he's saving 2% not having an agent so that's the real victory.

Then you have retards (and bust) RG3 saying that real reason people are mad is cause Lamar is going against the system by not having an agent. I didn't think he'd be suffering from CTE so early.

The only people who are mad are the Lamar defenders who think he should be given more guaranteed money than Watson. Everyone else is laughing and calling him a retard

I also find it funny that people are saying it's a conspiracy that nobody wants to give Lamar his guaranteed contract or touch him with a 10 ft pole. He's a proven head case now, nothing is going to change when he gets his money. Lots of players kinda half ass it once they get their big contract and I can easily seem him doing that. He also sat out of a playoff game which I can't imagine would sit well with other teams. There's also the issue of the contract following this one, is he going to be this difficult again? Probably, so it's better to just avoid it. But it's always racism even though the league is mostly black.

When RG3 is brought up, I love mentioning his "shot" at Kirk. This guy didn't even last 1 year with the Vikings.

Dude's straight up gonna end up on the Bucs at this rate.
I can't imagine Todd Bowes would grow a spine and do something like this lol.
 
Anyone who has heard Lamar attempt to speak English could tell that he's a moron. If you want to see what will happen to Lamar, just look at Cam Newton.
 
If I was a GM that'd what I would be worried about.

Ravens offered him $133m/3yr or something but now he's shopping around for a guaranteed contract and it's like...hmm. JaMarcus risk.
If he wasn't retarded, he'd see that $133m is better than nothing. He'd also understand that giving 2% to an agent is worth it when he's getting you tons of money. But I must be pro agent to think like that.

It's the fate of all running qbs. Even qbs who take too many hits like Luck, it wears them down over time. The Bills HC is worried over Allen taking too many hits since any moron can see the unsustainability of it.
