Any Word on OBJ?

I have no idea. I don't actually party with the college kids. Maybe I should though. I can still hold my booze pretty well, and there's nothing even remotely creepy about a married 43 y/o showing up at a party with 19 and 20 y/o girls, right?

I don’t know, most of the Hollywood men have wives that are half their age…and then there was Heff!

I wouldnt guess you have no idea. I mean this is quite the observation OP:

it's pretty common to see frat boys buying a case of Natty Boh (National Bohemian- basically Baltimore's version of Genny) for the party and a tall boy can of Genny Cream Ale to start off the night for themselves.

"You people thought that Odell was going to the Cowboys, right?” Chalet, a Bloomfield, N.J. native, said. “Let me tell you people something. I am better than f—king Adam Schefter. I am better than f—king Jordan Schultz. He is not going to no Cowboys. You want to know where he’s going? Tune the f–k in right here.”

I don't think Odell is healthy.

To the Ravens.

That should work out well for his stats.

I'm pretty comfortable saying it's 2023...and it's 2023 OBJ....not a previos version.

Price seems to be $18M including incentives. I can see why he’s not a Bill

I read 15 million guaranteed.

That's just bizarre. Why does Baltimore lay out the big bucks for a WR when they have no QB to get him the ball. As for OBJ, it sounds like nothing more than a money grab. I can't see the Ravens getting into the playoffs with a Lamar Jacksonless offense. Does John Harbaugh really think Jackson is going to cave on his demands?

Why are Ravens overpaying OBJ? - ProFootballTalk

Why are Ravens overpaying OBJ?

The offer wasn’t aimed at beating the offer the Jets had made or would be making. Per a league source with knowledge of the situation, the Jets were contemplating a low base coupled with a high upside. They were basically hoping for a bargain-basement deal. The Ravens blocked that opportunity by blowing the market away with an offer far exceeding whatever the Jets or anyone else was willing to pay.
So why did they do it? Here are some ideas.
First, the Ravens have had a hard time persuading receivers to choose to play for an offense predicated on the run. To get someone like Beckham to choose Baltimore, the Ravens needed to come to the table with real money — despite red flags including age (31 in November) and injury history (two ACL tears in the same knee, since October 2020).

OBJ and Lamar are reportedly friends and have talked about OBJ’s free agency. This is likely an attempt to incentivize Lamar to sign an extension or at least play on the tender.

I wish OBJ well.

This will not help the Ravens very much. They are on the road to mediocrity.
