From the episode
I think there's a very real world where... Lamar Jackson is... on a different team next year... if you do pull up quarterback average value right now... Lamar Jackson... falls outside of that top 10 of highest paid quarterbacks... you'd be hard to argue that you need to pay Dak Prescott 10 million more a year than Lamar Jackson
STACKED’s take
Lamar's contract value is fair despite injury concerns and organizational tension.
The source expresses concern about Lamar Jackson's availability and willingness to play when not 100% healthy, noting it feels weird that he didn't play a recent week when many quarterbacks play through injuries. However, another the source counters that Lamar's contract value is actually fair to good—he falls outside the top 10 highest-paid quarterbacks, making him a bargain compared to peers like Dak Prescott, Josh Allen, Joe Burrow, Trevor Lawrence, Jordan Love, Baker Mayfield, Matt Stafford, Jared Goff, Brock Purdy, and Justin Herbert. The second the source attributes the organizational weirdness to Lamar negotiating without an agent and protecting his future earnings during contract discussions.
