Will Lamar Jackson not receive a full guarantee?
PFF’s Ari Meirov mentioned via Twitter, “If Lamar Jackson wants a fully guaranteed contract like Deshaun Watson… Russell Wilson and Kyler Murray not coming close to doing the same did not help him. Would imagine Baltimore’s front office is hammering that home now in negotiations. Watson’s deal has been an outlier.”
Russell Wilson hurts Lamar Jackson trying to get a fully guaranteed contract. Ravens will surely insist that Deshaun Watson's deal is an anomaly, much like Kirk Cousins' was in 2018, after Wilson & Kyler Murray's contracts.

Ex-agent Joel Curry also stated that Wilson damages Jackson’s chances of landing a fully guaranteed deal. The Ravens will argue that Deshaun Watson’s agreement is an exception, more like Kirk Cousins’ was in 2018.

Lamar is an elite athlete, but isn’t even a Top 10 passer in the league. Not sure why people think he’s worth that kind of money.

A user mentions the best thing possible for Lamar Jackson.
Best thing for Lamar is to play under the franchise tag. And let both Cincinnati and Chargers resign and reset the QB market. Then Baltimore will have to pay more. Just like Dallas did with Prescott
